Life Just Took An Upswing (Share Yours)

[The Wykydtron]

I decide not to kill myself ?. That?s a triumphs right?

That is generally a good thing yes. Endeavour to not kill yourself harder in the future :3


Well I just made a Hulk/Sentinel/Wesker team in UMVC3 ragequit. Yeah that's right I just made the owner of THE pubstomp, zero effort win team ragequit. I just systematically destroyed his entire team with Vergil then denied him his Dark Wesker counter comeback. He wrecked the rest of my team as well. NOPE VERGIL!

"Rest in peace"

*ragequit*

I was giggling just a bit at that XD

Oh and I MAY be getting to grips with the blocking and teching mechanics in BlazBlue. Maybe. I think you're meant to spam lights when you tech out and Barrier Block a whole bunch. Then there's actual combos but I can come back to that later. Mu-12 doesn't need combos anyway. Her lack of clothing gives her super stylish MLG damages even in small hits.

[sub]Seriously, what is up with that lack of clothing? 'S ridiculous[/sub]

If you insist on the serious stuff I have another job interview in a week or so. There.

Oh and I have my new computer which should be good news, however I need to buy ANOTHER CABLE that they decided to not tell me to get. God forbid you sell me a PC that has y'know all the components needed for it to work? Apparently having good graphics cards does things to your ports or something. So you need an extra cable... I buy a decently high-end PC and still they weasel a few more Pounds out of me for no reason. I actually need to leave the house tomorrow which was NOT PART OF THE PLAN.

My dissertation adviser gave me back a draft of my proposal that actually had revision comments on it instead of various red Xs and vague directions to "re-write". I've never been so happy to get blasted with red ink in my entire life.

That's so boss right there! "Um, yeah, I'm gonna have to ask to you rewrite the sections on pages 25-68..."

My story: The Korean girl I'm dating understands sarcasm...might be a bit vague to the rest of you, but Korean's don't generally understand sarcasm!

This woman I really like told me she didn't like hitting me the other day (It's a long story), and I have this feeling she might be warming up to me a bit (i.e. like me in that way). Most people laugh it off when they hit me. This woman seemed genuinely upset by it.

It's a pipe dream, maybe, but we've been talking for two months now, and she seems comfortable enough to make fun of me, but she means it in good humor, and I talked her out of a negative spell (I think, anyway. She's acting quite different now that we've been doing some talking, and it's the kind of talk that she needed to hear. It's all positives, I promise).

She's also wanting to help me with some negative feelings I've been having. Again, maybe a pipe dream, but I say with a smile on my face that maybe she might like me, because I sure as hell love her.

Also, got a big thing going on for the next two weeks, and I can't talk too much about it, but it's pretty badass, to say the least.

A year ago I was miserable and suicidal. I posted about it multiple times on these boards just so I could talk to people. I regularly went on crisis chat websites and cried my eyes out. I was working at a job I hated. I felt like I was going to be lost and alone forever. Then around June / July of last year I suddenly pulled my shit together and quit the job I hated. I met a woman online who I've been dating for the last 7 or 8 months (she lives 20 minutes away). After three months of unemployment, I found a job that doesn't suck like the previous job I had and it pays way more money. Things have been going so spectacularly well that if I lost it all, I'd still feel like there was hope and a reason to keep living because they might get that good again.

Well I was an alternate on the Science Olympiad team, and now that someone left the team, I am a full member!

The downside, the competition is in 3 days and I currently know absolutely nothing about electronics, forensics, or astronomy (my specialty is chemistry, WHY NOT GIVE ME CHEM?), which coincidentally are the 3 events that I got, so I guess I should start cramming for that.

I sold my piece of shit of a car that hasn't run for the past year, yesterday. Used some of the money to buy a new Android phone with the cheap as shit straight talk plan, since my old phone had almost no service where I now live. The rest of the money is set back to pay for the monthly plan (just $45) so it won't be a drain on me, while I continue to search for a job.

I really needed this new phone, since I was worried that my old one was fucking with my ability to find a job. It dropped calls constantly, and sometimes it didn't receive any. On the other hand, I "might" have some luck on my side with the job hunting. My sis works for an auction house on the weekends and she's putting in a word for me, since they need help working the floor. It's not the best paying, but goddamn it's money.

I decided not to drop out of college just because I'm doing lousy and can't decide on a major. I don't know what I want to pursue. The only things I'm good at are reading and writing. I don't have the math background to make it as an engineer.

I don't know what I want to do with my life! But I haven't quit.

I lost my car in a grisly accident a few months ago, and my job along with it. Recently I successfully kept my license in the traffic courts, proved my ability behind the wheel, and tomorrow I'm going to check out a new SUV that I've been wanting to get for a while now. When that's over with, I'll tie up a few loose ends and get some therapy. I'm finally pulling myself out of a two-year rut.
