How Was Your Day VI

[Perdita]

Aww, Kirsty, perhaps the heat is getting to people and they are less sensitive to other people's feelings (your's in this case) but I am sure they don't mean it in a bad way. I appreciate your feelings though, must be frustrating to get treated like that by a guy but that is the difference between male and females. Has always been and will always be like that, I guess. Hope you are feeling better when you get up today

finished cleaning out my house yesterday. i was so hot by the end of it but at least everywhere was really clean and sparkling so we better get all our deposit back!

today im gonna go and help at the playschool, the little kids there are so sweet, although im not looking forward to spending hours out in the garden in this heat!

My bank account just got hit by a bill from my garage, a service and a minor repair cost me £360 Got to take the car back on Monday as the water pump is leaking but that will be done under warranty, phew.

I've been offline for a week due to Virgin being silly billies. Its been a very long and boring week with no internet and only terrestrial tv channels.

I finished watching season two of 24 then got up this morning to find the bulldog puppy has chewed a corner off the box and broken the plastic inside I told her off and she gave me a stroppy look.

I'm full of cold so I've been asleep all day. Time to decimate my bank balance on amazon

I can get soapboards on my phone but I can't reply to threads .

[Perdita]

Hope you, Virgin and bulldog puppy are feeling better soon and behaving like they should

[Trinity]

I am getting better now, from this horrid flu bug, it is in my chest now though and I am struggling a bit, but I will be back at work tomorrow.

I hope your ok today Kirsty - people can be extremely harsh sometimes. To me, society seems to have a set of expectations, such as going to uni, having 2.4 children etc and if you don't conform to them, you'll get some weird looks and be judged, which is completely and utterly wrong. It really isn't very nice and you have my sympathies.

I hope your feeling better today.

I'm glad your getting better now Trinity.

It's absolutely boiling today! I am off to a gathering with some friends later. We are all going to be playing Guitar Hero over my friend's house on the PS3 - bring it on I've been practicing these past few days. I get a bit too carried away though and start jumping up and down on my sofa with the guitar when nobody is around. I feel like a rockstar

[Perdita]

That made me laugh, you jumping up and down on the sofa playing guitar hero Enjoy

[Kirsty :]]

Thing is, he's always like it and then says "he's joking" but you know full well there's some degree of truth in it. I know it's not true anyways because I work hard in that place.

I don't feel much better today, I have work later and I'm just not in the mood.
I'm sort of mad at myself, I'm 18 now and I jsut feel like maybe I should grow up and be more mature.
Just feel like I'm looking for everything in the wrong place.

[Trinity]

It is really hard being 18.

If you go to uni then you get to put off making any really hard decisions for 3 -4 years. If you don't go to uni then for some reason people expect you to have a plan.

Noone changes between the last week of school and the next week.

Kirsty, it is normal to feel lost. You have left school, you are officially no longer a child. You have grown up and discovered what noone tells you.

Adults are really no different to children.

You do not automatically know what to do, there is no 'right path' to take

From my life experience noone knows what they will eventually end up doing at 18.

Perhaps it is not so much a case of looking for things in the wrong places but rather looking for the wrong things?

That kind of sounds strange, but many people are so caught up with looking for something that they don't always see what is there.

I think that you need to give yourself a break, think about what you want think about the many paths that can take you there. Remember that in life there is only one final destination - and that what it is really about is enjoying the journey.


And as for the guy at work - you know he is a jerk.
