Ah, gotcha. Hmm.... I wonder if Kratom has any dream-enhancing effects? Some research may be required....

I must have spent $150 on my nails in the last month alone

Yeah, it's much easier to WILD on opiates. Not that I've ever done it.

WHY PEOPLE!?
It's so pointless and a massive waste of money and time.
I really don't understand it, but it may have something to do with this society's focus on going to "college" ( that's what you call it there, right?) to prove to people that you're smart or something.... doesn't really help if you fail though....

And it's not that people don't want to learn, it's just certain parts that will not RELATE to them applying it to real life (because honestly, who really needs to know about monocots and eudicots when they're going to type a quote in the office in the future?) And people will be smart because money is on the line, it's just that when you're in a class that gets curved a lot anyway, there's no point in over-exerting yourself, especially when dealing with other classes, and still trying to be sane.

This is just one class, but I hope I didn't imply that it covers the overall mentality of the University lol, because people really do work hard here, it's just that some courses, you think (why the hell do I need to take this? I guess it's just standard courses everyone needs to take).

It's a tradition that needs to die, but it will be a necessary evil until people can become Steve Jobs in a matter of minutes

There's going to be a curve, and people call it college or university here. The weird thing about college/universities, exams or quizzes might not be based on 100%. Sometimes the exams/quizzes are intended to be hard like Organic Chemistry for instance (people can make like 40s on their exams) but the thing is, that's how some are most of the time, so they base it on a curve on the highest score and distribute the rest (sometimes the really hardcore 4.0 GPA get a lot of insurance with high grades that way).

And sometimes things are based off of 100% right off the bat. The 3/10 average may look bad, but trust me, it's because this lab is one of those experiences that people don't really care about (and you'll find that laziness in most universities/colleges anyway). It's weird, I'd like to go more into how it works, but I can't find the right words for it.

And yeah, college/universities, it's just some BS method to thinking you're sooooo smart and shit when you're better off just working a low-end job and hoping you work your way up in the corporate hierarchy.

Ehh, there's nothing I can do about it, especially with a parent who jumps on the bandwagon about college overall like most parents do, and how they panic that you need to do well to get a good job and blahbakbhjalbjdflabjklgjldagjalgjsdfgkjak.

Lol, I better study for my Political Science Exam, just have to type two more pages of terms, put them on Quizlet, and take a practice test, and hope for the best tomorrow.

And wow, I'm chewing on a bottle cap, and I think when I twisted it, it made a small cut on my tongue. Now I'm tasting saliva and blood, mmmmmm yummy! I feel tired, I feel like just sleeping and forgetting that I need to study for this exam tomorrow....but NO link...HIGHER EDUMACATION.....WOOHOO

That's true, I wasn't even thinking about the opiate effects. Actually I'll bet it could go a long way, it's thought to also have NMDA antagonist activity which I've personally known to increase dream vividness before, and one of its opioidergic chemcials is also adrenergic, which could actually simultaneously increase lucidity and deepness of sleep.

Why, so you have a funny accent to laugh at?

BAH! Why did you ban me!?!?!???????

Come back tommo, but don't give us the scare

sorry tommo, my bad

I haz teh Red Scare

so don't be a pu pu and come on back! #Ibegs4forgivenes

Any why are you liking these posts Aly without taking action?!

Tinychat.com/dv already

I'll be there soon, although usually when I get there the party's over. Either way I'm going to get cider and a huge bag of chips or something.

I totally lack quick social skills. It takes me forever, sometimes, just to write and respond to people here. Or else I'd be in chat too.
I'm too slow-witted.

I'm disappointed right now. My p-doc suggested (in case I haven't mentioned it already) that I write a letter to my bio-dad who recently died. But there was nothing left unsaid between us. Not really.
But then the thought struck me that I would like to write a letter to my kids (as if I would ever bare my heart to them in such a manner!). Yet before I could, the beginnings of a poem came to mind. I started writing whatever came to mind. But I haven't gotten far.
"The high from some drugs
The blade of our knives
We'll do anything
to soothe our lives
....
It is all my fault
I must now admit
......
My wee little lambs
For you I now grieve"

Originally, all I had was:
"I'm sorry that I left you all alone
To learn the ways of this oft cruel world
I'm sorry I didn't teach you how to cry."

And then- out of the blue- a melody pops into my head.
Now I have to create the poem set to this strange melody (sort of Russian/Gypsy/Folksy/Sad sounding- to my untrained ear anyhow)
Worse yet, I don't know how to write or read music. So I've recorded the melody onto my iPad using a mic (seeing how my earbuds/mic have disappeared).
Worst still is that my eldest is in the room RIGHT next to me. We can hear each other through the door and wall very easily. 1) I don't want him to know what I'm composing. 2) I can't work on it if anyone can hear me because I'm very shy about my voice.
And there's no telling when he'll go to sleep.


But at least I'm writing *something*. It's been way too long.

I think you bring warmth here Zhaylin, I like reading your posts. I think you know how to interact with people here just fine.

Never mind about being there. I got a friend to start playing l4d and we're going to play that! Promises to be much more fun (no offense, I wish everyone on DV played l4d )

Can I play L4D too? Feel like game. As long as it's not vs

Ah don't worry Tommo, in 3 days you'll be lifted. I'm really sorry about that man. D:

Well.... the girl who I like is getting married on Saturday :/ I really don't know if I should go to the fucking dance or not. For fuck sakes, this blows. If I don't go, I seem like a jackass. If I do go, I'm going to get super tanked, and probably hide in a fucking corner or something.
