Sitting on your *** for 2+ hours listening to a boring teacher can be torture.
A-****ing-men.
During my first semester of college, my math teacher was so dull. He bored me so much.

That class... I ended up dropping cuz I was failing every test :v

Well my cousin was supposed to spend a few hours with me over the weekend with me teaching me how to drive, but it turns out my aunt has a problem with that(the colossal *****!). It's not so bad though, because my cousin doesn't have much time on the weekend, and it would be a lot cheaper for me to get help from my aunt instead. I was just about to ask my cousin if it would be worth it for me to make the trip out to see her when she told me her mom had a problem with it. It sucks that I have to wait another week(my good aunt is away for this weekend) but overall I think it's for the best(I really hate having to wait though, the time factor is a big deal at this point).

On an unhappy note, I am really trying to pay attention in my Astronomy class, but it is dull and I keep getting sleepy. Doesn't help the class is 2+ hours long.
3 hour long class of sketching, or 5 hour class of WATER COLOR.

****ing awful.

I'm starting to regret the degree I signed up for.

While it is something I want to learn, it's not the thing I want to do most.

I'm only taking prerequisites this quarter, I wonder if I could change it.

Than again, my friend took the degree I want to take and couldn't find a job

You're complaining about that??? XD that sounds like the funnest classes ever!!!!
I wish my school offered watercolor classes instead of just mixing them with color theory or design

Color theory is more complicated than you'd think
It was one of the most useful intro courses I took last year
Along with perspective

Danggg :/ long classes are the worst. I know that feel. All of my classes are 4 hours long (3:30 for night classes), and they can get pretty boing despite being fun subjects

I have this friend who I now wish I never knew. He always tells me these crazy stories about his life that sound sooooo bs and it's driving me insane. (he's younger) The main part that urks me is that he's somewhat manipulative. I mean, it's just a friend over the internet and I want to give him the benifit of the doubt. I just hate talking to him so much though..... He even said he tried to commit suicide once for attention from girls, he worries me.

I guess your right. I need to just delete him, I can't say i'm not worried about him in a way. I don't know if that story about him commiting suicide is true or not. It is almost a jerk move to pretend to be his friend though.

I'm at kinda a bittersweet moment right now. I'm going to have an easier time getting over my ex now that the true person he is was revealed to me today by some of my friends. Kinda sucks though because it means the person I thought he was doesn't exist, but at the same time, I'll be better off now. And at the same time, I learned just how good some of my friends are.

I sometimes text other people. Hell, one of my friends today asked me to text him sometime next weekend so we can hang, so it's all good.

If find texting people to be incredibly boring and distracting from whatever else I am doing. Most people say maybe a few words per text. Can't imagine myself being entertained by it like I was in school unless it was with a person I cared for immensely, of which, no one fits that description.

Texting is a lot of fun and how I am able to stay in contact with a lot of my friends from the East Coast. Without texting, I probably would have lost touch with a few of them.

I hate texting because there isn't any emotion involved in it.

i love texting my friends really ******** pictures and they text me back an equally ******** picture. it's fun. too bad my phone bill isn't paid. it's put an enormous strain on my social life since it was really the only way i had to communicate with the small circle of friends i had. and now that we're all off on to college it's so weird. i wish i can just repeat, like, my entire grade school life. i feel so unfulfilled and like so much of my life is wasted oh god hold me smashboards ;—;

And why exactly do you hate yourself and everybody? Particularly me.

If I go into detail about why I dislike specific posters that will lead to a bunch of unnecessary drama I don't want to deal with. I don't really feel like antagonizing anyone anymore.

also, it's a pretty loaded question anyways. why do I hate myself? can you pinpoint the exact specific source of your emotional and spiritual woes? The typical answers I could give don't really satiate. I could blame the emotional and sexual abuse in my past or being bullied in school or any of the other "Bad things" I experienced but it's never really it...There's never just one thing. I don't know what it is that makes me me. I don't even know what "me" is, really. When I get in these low points it's the feeling of "everything" that upsets me. So, I don't like people because of everything they do. Good or bad, it just strikes me as all the same amount of bull****. It's varying degrees of just simple annoyance with people I see as ignorant or lacking, to outright hatred of people who treat each other badly. The people I hate the most are the ones that remind me of myself, even in small and insignificant ways. When I see things I dislike about my own self reflected in other people it drives me insane.

But really, there is no explanation that suffices. Wether it's people wallowing in ignorance and hurting eachother or people striving for improvement and harmony I am here, a wretch in the dark scowling. There are bright moments where I am completely at peace and content with myself and with all of humanity's imperfections...those are the rare times I live for, and cherish, knowing that they will never stay. That little woeful silence, it never goes away. I'm more or less following my dream of living an artist's life and outside of the most fleeting and blissful moments that come with that, nothing has really changed inside of me. I could make the most perfect expression of art and be admired and loved by millions of other people and it will never go away and just be "happy". I'm ok with this. Life is struggle. The lowest pits that I'm sunken into for most of my existence give meaning to the life-affirming highs. The only true peace to be had is when I finally die...god, I hope that's true.

Have you ever tried therapy?

I did one day of therapy in high school. I used to have debilitating anxiety and I basically just did the therapy so I could get medication. I was trying to get Xanax but they gave me Lexapro instead. I never went back after that and the lexapro worked wonders for my anxiety.

I don't really have money to do therapy now. I'm not completely averse to the idea, but I don't really want to start getting saddled on anti-depressants. The majority of the time my problems aren't debilitating, it's just every now and then I get really bad and blue to the point where it becomes difficult to do simple day-to-day things. I guess it would be alright to have someone to tell all the nasty and pathetic things that I'm really thinking to

Hey, I wouldn't mind you explaining why you hate me, I won't get all dramatic on you, besides, it'd actually open me open to get to know you and any problems you might have. But anyways, emotional problems can be pinpointed, it just takes a lot of reflection. I had no idea you were an artist right now, and I hate the way this is going to sound, but you could use that reflection as an opportunity to find inspiration of the artistic kind. Trust me, you can indeed figure out the problem with your attitude towards yourself, others, etc. Therapy, while can be good, shouldn't be needed unless the problems are incredibly extreme, and you can call me out on this, but I am going to guess your situation isn't that disorderly (correct me if you suspect I'm wrong).

Like you kind of suggest at your last post is that telling others about your issues, simply having someone listen in person, can help. You don't necessarily need a therapist to get a pair of ears, unless the people you are around suck at listening.

I had weekly sessions of Therapy during my final year in college, they were a great help for me. If I could have continued them then I think I would be in a much better place than I am now, not just emotionally but in the decisions I've made as well.

But it was free in college, and it's not anymore. Therapy would be a practical option until I get a job that gives me good insurance coverage. Anyways my point is that Therapy helped me a lot at a point when I was sounding a lot like you, if you could find someway to make it work then you should try it out.

Therapy without the medicine might be good. Anti-depressants can have some bad side effects plus you don't want to depend on it.
