I'm shy, but I was always the one to get into trouble at school because my laugh was so loud :(
Agreed :)
I'm always here for you leaaa :D You should know that :P.
Kirsty I know the feeling, but as everyones said stick in, cause it's true not many people like loud people. If that even made sense which to me it currently doesn't :S
Its been a rough few days.
Tuesday started out ok. I had my mock court appearance which went well, then it all went downhill. I honestly don't know what happened or how I went from feeling well to being so depressed in the space of a few hours. I've been a bit hit and miss with my meds recently but I've not missed any doses in the past week. Tuesday was a day of doing stupid things :wall: My desire to escape myself for a few hours led to a massive migraine yesterday. I've never had one that bad, I even went to the doctors as I thought something was seriously wrong.
So, the doctors. I went dressed like a tramp, dirty jogging bottoms, greasy hair and sunglasses. I felt so ill I really didn't care what I looked like. He changed my migraine meds then we got talking about the causes of my migraine and why I'd had one for the first time in 18 months. He asked me about my drinking habits (he's the first doctor to ever ask whether I use alcohol as an escape) and if there was anything else on my mind. So I told him about the family situation and he told me about being a police surgeon and how he's seen it so many times before. I really didn't want to talk about any of it but he's asked me to go back and talk about a few things when I'm feeling better. I have a check up in a few weeks so I'm really looking forward to it now :rolleyes:
Today I've just been hanging out in the union and sleeping on the sofas. I didn't want to spend another day by myself so it was the next best thing. I'm so tired now though, I just want to sleep.
Omg my easter has been mad! I still have another week off once this week is over
When dan came to visit last week, we went to see Kick Ass which is such a good film! :D Then we went out, since it was student night, then we went to Alton towers but it had a power cut- we went on 4 rides all day!!!
I went to doubletake studios as well which was good cos a friend reccomended me, some of the pics- wow, I never like pics of me!
The on the friday I went on a dancing night out, saturday went to lancaster to visit a friend at uni, got back home late sunday night, monday morning went to london with friends from uni for a night out, came back tuesday and slept!
Ive felt so ill lately. :( stupid cough
I really need to get some revision done, im going to visit dan next week, well late next week so I have plenty of time to get a good amount done
Thanks everyone for your kind words and advice! The thing is... I am loud, and bubbly, and thats what I'm known for being and what people compliment me on most of the time. I think it's jsuta bit of a blow that Stacey is ten times louder than me.. makes me seem like a mouse haha.
Abigail, I really hope that you feel better soon! I say it all the time but you do deserve to be happy, maybe talking to the doctor will help you more in the coming weeks :)
Blimming heck Abbie you've been a busy bee! Also! We have a mutual friend! Someone that I know of, came to stay with your friend not long ago, it was a bit mad seeing pictiures of it on Facebook haha
Yeah I know! :D
Caz???!!!
Yeah Caz! I've only briefly spoken to her once or twice I think, whilst being drunk.. but yeah, she goes out with my friends brother, it's all a bit linked haha
It's good that you didn't go for help just because maybe you ahd been told it was needed. Nothing will help until you want the help yourself, so the fact that you're coming around to it is an achievement in itself, don't rush it, as you may just feel constant pressure, which may make you feel worse in the long run, just do things at the speed you're comfortable with :)
small world!!! haha I saw you become friends on Facebook and was like :confused: eh? then saw the pictures and was like :eek: no wayyy!
well I'm on here for a moan because in 27 years of employment I have never had to make a complaint about anyone. Y es I've had disagreements with work colleagues but I've done my best to work things out, and in my current job I never thought someone would do the dirty on me but they have. I'll explain.
As many of you know I work in a further and higher education college in the engineering department. At this time of year we start recruiting for students who will join courses in September. If a student wants to enrol on an engieering course they have to pass a test this is mandatory for both motor vehicle and electrical courses. Anyway all applicants come to me and I log them then they get sent to another part of the college who invite students in for testing. My moan starts before the Easter holidays. I was in the head of departments office checking we had enough test papers for the motor vehicle exam when one of the lecturers came in and asked for one and a copy of the exam answers. I gave him them as this wasn't unusual. The problem was on Tuesday I had a new load of application forms to log and while logging them I noticed that one student hadn't put in his date of birth so I phoned his house. The message went to voice mail were I left a message why I was phoning. Thursday my phone went and it was one of the lecturers returning my call. Turns out the application form was for his son and he asked me when it came to inviting students in for testing could his son's application be top of the list. I explained that I have no control who gets tested first that is up to Lecturers. A lilttle while later I remembered about the same Lecturer taking the exam and answers before easter. I spoke to the head of department and he said to wait until the testing and if this Lecturers son gets an unusally high score then the lecturer will have to face the consquences but I may be in danger of getting my knuckles wrapped. So this has really pi$$ed me off.
And on top of that Mother Nature has decided to kick in with My 11 year old daughter
Aww, Kath, sorry to hear about your work troubles, you would like to think that the lecturer would know better than try to cheat for his son to get top of the list. :(
I was 11 when mother nature kicked in, still rememberwaking up with the pain and not knowing why.
Kath that's terrible that a lecturer possibly helped his son to cheat. You shouldn't feel bad about giving him the answers if thats normal practice. You weren't to know what he would do with them.
Thanks guys. Normally at recruiting there is only three of four lectuers who oversee the testing and interviewing. This can take up a morning or afternoon. This year they have changed it so that any lectuer who is free can sit in while the exam is taking place so a lectuer taking a copy of the exam is not unusual. It's just the sneaky way he has done it to get a copy of the exam. It shows you he must have little faith in his son passing an exam on his own merit.
That is the way I saw it when I read your first post Kath.. He obviously feels his son can only pass by cheating.. what does that say about a) him and b) his son... Even if I was a school teacher I would expect my kids to do the same as all others.. it is up to them to learn.. As a child if my parents handed me an exam I would have been disgusted by them to think I could only do well by cheating... at the end of the day, you did your job right so you have nothing to worry about
Just found out that one of the guys I used to work with in the US died in a car crash.. he left work a month ago (exactly to the day he died).. His final words to everyone are just beautiful:
Good Luck and Good Life my friends. Remember what is really important in this life, find it and enjoy it to its fullest.
That's very, very sad. :( He sounded very wise.
How are you coping, Siobhan?
Aww, Siobhan, that is sad news but he knew what life was all about. Hope he found and enjoyed it. Hope you are ok :(
That is awful for the young family he has left behind. May God bless them and you :)
That's so sad Siobhan, he sounded like a lovely man.
Okay, now I've really got myself into a mess. Think it's sorted now.. well I hope so anyways. Only time will tell :|
I hope you're ok, Kirsty :)
Terribly sad news Shiv, hope you and his family will be ok. xx
Just found out that my niece's little girl who was born with her stomach outside her body (Gastroschisis) and has had to be on a bag since she was born, has had a successful operation (she is 2 years old now) and took her first poo! I know it doesn't sound like much but it was a big deal for her.. it means in 6 months she can start eating proper food and can play like a little girl should.. So happy for her and my niece..
:cheer: That's brilliant! It's so nice to hear happy news :D
I went out this evening. A guy came back to mine then we went to the casino where I yakked up in the toilets :( I didn't drink that much but I did have three coffees in quick succession. He invited me back to his place, I declined and now I'm home. Why didn't I accept??
I don't know what to do about him, he said he's been trying to get me on a date for months. This is so confusing, especially as I leave next week and he leaves the union in a few months. What do I do?
About an hour after posting that I went back to his. We woke up a few hours ago holding hands and just staring at each other. It was quite sweet really but I don't know where its going. We're driving up to Newcastle in a few hours so that will be interesting.
I thought that he might have woken up and realised he made a mistake but he told somebody that he was very happy this morning. When we were holding hands he was just smiling all the time.
I don't know what to do :confused:
Abigail, does he live far from you? if you are thinking about sticking with this guy, can it work out even with the distance?
I'm glad you had a good time with this guy, even if you don't know where it's going as you're leaving next week. If you have strong feelings for each other, it may work out long-distance.
Guys i have a question to ask. I've been thinking about this for a while now but I just don't know. A few weeks ago i was prescribed tablets to calm my body down so i don't often have panic attacks, but now i just can't be bothered taking them, I'm constantly tired, nearly always tearful and really really moody it's no where near my time of the month I don't think but i'm sick and tired of feeling like this. I can't sleep at night anymore, and all i want to do is sleep although I can't. Plus to add to that I'm not eating at all, If I do eat it's only Junk food, or i have one main meal a day. I don't want to go to the doctors cause i feel like I'm always there nowadays. Don't want to have to explain this to my mum cause she just won't listen to me, any advice? Sorry if that doesn't make sense.
Are you saying that the pills make you feel like that? Then I would go to the doctor and tell him, he might be able to prescribe you different pills that won't have the side effects you describe. Not eating properly is not good and can have an affect on your moods, if your blood sugar level drops too much. Maybe you should try to eat just a little, even if you don't feel like it, like a handful of nuts would be a good start or some fruit. Hope you get this sorted x :)
Tannie you should really go to the doctor, as Perdita said, they can prescribe different tablets to you. Also, don't worry about being there all the time, they're there to help, we must never forget that. They will not penalise you for going back and forth, you're simply showing interest in your health and wellbeing, which is probably what so many more people should be doing.. myself included. I hope you feel better soon :) x
