I went and see my grandma today with my family. she looks pretty rough. really just skin and bones. at least she is perky and sorta talkative. Its hard seeing her like this. My brother took it the hardest... I just gonna calm down a bit. and try to relax a bit.

 

edit; I'm tired...I hope I don't wake up...

We've had rain every day this pass week. And today is cold and bitter. I'm tired of this nasty weather. Summer needs to get of her ass and get here already.

Trade you? I'm tired of all this sudden 80+ degree weather and humidity, considering a couple weeks back it was lucky to get into the 60s. Because I'm not used to this weather, it feels more like 100 degrees or hotter. Doesn't help my job hasn't allowed for courtesy associates to wear shorts yet. I'd happily take rain and coldness at this point.

It's been weird for me. On some days, it's really cold and freezing and other days it's pretty warm and sunny. British weather is so fucked up sometimes lol, though with summer approaching, I'm expecting a pretty hot summer this year...

Well, I've finally finished my AP exams and now I can rest up a little bit before final exams come in about 3 weeks. Hopefully I'll be ready for those.

 

On another note, yesterday, my school orchestra participated in ISSMA, which is a competition for performing arts where schools around the state compete. My school got first place in the Orchestra competition, which was really awesome!

 

And finally, I've gotten a fair share of strange weather in my area lately. Basically, mother nature decided to skip Spring altogether and skip right into the Summer... Right now, it is about 86 F (30 C) and the average at this time of year where I live is about 70 F (21 C). Thankfully, it should cool down next week due to a lot of cold-front storms.

I'm kinda sad that the old Zelda RP thread died a while ago.  I was having a lot of fun with it, but towards the end it was just me and klop422.  If someone made a new one (I don't have anywhere near the level of creativity required), or if a whole bunch of people revived it, I think that would be pretty fun.

Overheard from my co-worker today my boss got in trouble because of him being lazy and not having a couple of aisles ready for inventory. Basically, yesterday was inventory day at Weis Markets, and my boss thought it was oh so smart to WAIT until the last day or two to do anything and got on everyone's case to get inventory prepped. This ended up leaving the grocery manager highly stressed as she spent the last week or two having cashiers help her out and eventually enlisted my help to get the bins sorted for inventory. I got most of them done on Sunday with my co-worker Sarah taking over after I left. That's what happens when you're REACTIVE instead of PROACTIVE. But of course the boss probably wouldn't listen to me; I'm just a customer courtesy associate. Whatever. I don't see him lasting much longer. His approval rating was very high at first, but the past two months he's starting to reveal his true colors. He's bad enough I wish I had my old boss back.

 

Back a month ago, he was up everyone's ass for similar reasons; corporate was coming in. I actually had gotten so angry I actually wrote a two week notice out, although I asked the assistant store manager to tear it up after I reconsidered. Yeah, I had SNAPPED. I was THAT close to throwing my badge to the floor and leaving last month. But since then, the boss isn't being as much of a pain and I got a raise, so yeah. I'll suck it up a bit longer. I need to stay strong.

GCSE exams are going well so far. I got one Religion and two Chemistry exams out of the way and next up is Spanish. Chemistry was actually a lot easier than I expected, since none of the questions were overly complicated as I had thought they would be.

 

Either way, I don't think I'm going to struggle as much as I thought, but I'll try not to stay too overconfident, since I know things don't always work out with that kind of mindset lol

[Erdrick]

Good luck on your exams Eddy!

 

I need to bounce back from a letdown of a day tonight. On a lighter note, I had a great dinner and it's amazing how I can try new foods with ease nowadays.

Dealt with some annoying teens that came into the store today. It's teens like them that bring on the strong negative stereotype that they have these days of being no good. I mean come on; there are 5-6 of them, probably between the ages of 14-16, all wearing backpacks (possibly to shoplift), all having those smiles that suggest they're looking for an opportunity to shoplift and being rowdy. All of those things however were nothing compared to what really pissed me off. These annoying juvenile punks actually tried to hog ALL THREE motorized carts for their own lazy asses so the elderly and disabled couldn't use them. Well, I immediately went to the manager and she asked them to leave. Of course, the little thugs had to give her attitude, but eventually, the group of punks left. From what I was told by the bakery manager, they come in every so often to start trouble. That and after my manager shooed them away, they hung out in the parking lot about 15 minutes before going somewhere else to cause trouble.

 

Thing is, if I even THOUGHT of behaving like that growing up, my father would have pounded me bad enough I would be afraid to even consider acting out of line ever again. There would have been NO WAY he would have tolerated that kind of behavior. It just kills me seeing filth like that being so commonplace with little to nothing done about it. And to be honest, it's not just teenagers. There are just as many adults that do the same things or even worse. I don't even want to think what would have happened to me if my father got a call that I was in a grocery store with a bunch of kids my age acting suspicious, taking all of the motorized carts and being completely belligerent towards store personnel. All I know is I probably would NEVER do that ever again.

 

I just hope I wasn't being offensive in my post. If it is, please let me know and I'll edit it.

We need more parents like Adrian Peterson. His kid damn well won't even shoplift.

 

And don't even try to say he won't shoplift because the family has money... Undisciplined little shits that come from money love to cause mischief.

 

And some comic relief:

this week pushed me too far. i hurt myself today. and it felt good. 

 

im tired of feeling controlled in places where i shouldnt be. even my comfort zones are being invaded now. im tired of being nice to people who dont give a fuck about my existence or worse. you wont believe how hard i try to avoid polluting this world with ignorance. i cant blame them though. they and i know im truly a waste of space. my conscious is far too considerate and complicated for such a cruel world and it has lead me to ways that have made me truly see human ugliness and stupidity. im ashamed to be different, rejected, bullied all my life. i never had a best friend. its a surreal thought to me. i wish i can like girls or even guys the way others around me do. purezc is becoming less and less comforting and less friendly for me. and im even growing distant from it. but purezc is the least of problems and i thank what little people could do to help a corrupted stranger...

 

no matter how bright my future is i dont see hope in the future. i see ugliness and pain. i hate my social anxiety. i hate my depression. i hate my body. i hate my conscious. youre sick of me ranting about how shit my life is, i am too. i dont have a place to vent without consequence, so im sorry. i just want real help or out out..

 

this is not a part of a divine plan. this is not destiny. this is just my life. my life sucks. all i ask is to be normal. thats all i ever truly asked for...

As I was reading this, I noticed that your situation is eerily similar to one that I've had for a while. All of the problems you described, all of your reasoning, it was all almost identical. The only difference is the hurting yourself part. I'm not exaggerating. I don't know exactly what keeps me going, but if I had to guess, I'd say that it's one or both of the following; curiosity and a desire to make people happy. As far as curiosity goes, whenever anything happens to me, good or bad, I have this internal drive to find out how the situation will end. Even if I'm in an unbearably horrible situation, I still have a sort of need to find out how it will turn out. As for the other part, I don't really know what made me start thinking this way, but I find enough enjoyment just improving the lives of others, even with something as simple as a good joke. I suppose if somebody wanted to feel smart, they could call this post a "foil" of the two of us.
