so there was this small puppy that goes to my school almost everyday, he's very friendly and goes near to any student who calls him over.
days after my grandpa died, i returned to school. on that same day, but friends and I were looking for him, because it was quite rare for him to never show up in school campus.
so we asked this lady who works for the school, and she said that the dog died of sickness....
okay, I lost 4 important people in my life plus a stray dog that i have emotional attachment with.
this is officially the shittiest year of the entire universe.
This is some sad stuff!! As an animal lover and with two dogs of my own it's always sad to hear of them dying.
Oh man, I'm very sorry to hear about all your loss this year. It does always seem like bad news comes in groups sometimes. Good thing this year is almost over, eh? You get a whole new year soon, and I hope it's amazing for you.
Dealing with stuff like this isn't ever easy, but I do hope things get better for you soon :-)

glad you're back
the last time i was at the hospital was over a year ago, when i was diagnosed with breakbone fever.
idiot nurse show… moreed me how long the needle was of the dextrose.
i would've slapped her but the pain of my hand was over the extremes.
I hate being allergic to pets, everytime I see a stray cat or dog my heart breaks, knowing I can't save it. I love dogs and it's really hard for me, the only way around it is that I play with my friends dog instead of getting my own, since long exposure causes the allergies.

So, I'll be starting some rehearsals soon for some street theatre performances I'm involved in. I haven't really done much performing for a couple of months now and it's only been going to small workshops and stuff. The rehearsals are starting on Monday and even though it's a good thing that I'm involved my anxiety has really kicked in for seeing everyone there. They're all people I've met in the past and I've worked with a few of them before too, but I can't help be nervous. Like, even though they're all nice people, for some reason I have it in my mind that no one there is going to like me anymore or that I'm not going to be good enough.
I know I probably sound dumb as hell, and I feel really dumb, but I just needed to rant about it and get off my chest how I feel. I know this is nothing compared to what some people post on the page but whenever I think about having to go I feel like I can't breathe and get so worked up but I know as soon as I get there I'll be fine and love it. It's just the THOUGHT of going and seeing people, you get me? I don't even know. Just stupid social anxiety.

Hey, don't feel like your problem is too trivial for this thread. It's a place to discuss problems, both big and small.
Performance anxiety is a very common issue, and as a frequent public speaker, I feel your pain. There's no golden bullet that can make you less fearful, but there are coping methods you can find all over the web. That said, I've always found that the best medicine is straight-up practice. Practice your lines ad nauseum, with particular focus on phrases that make you slip up. Try not to get flustered if you mess up, just keep going. Once you've internalized what you're going to say, you can focus on getting the delivery just right.
Something else to note is that the other people involved are probably freaked out too, or felt that way in the past. Might be worthwhile to own up to your nervousness and seek advice.

I agree that practice is the best cure, I definitely think it's because I've just been out of it for a few months now so I'm just a little rusty. I would love for this to just be all about saying my lines, but because it's street theatre we'll be going in and improvising most of the day. You see we've been given little parts and characters to go on and a story and when we go in we'll be devising and improvising some ideas we could use. So I think I'm just freaking out about the improv side of it, I think I'm just going to get the story and character down in my mind. I guess I'm just scared of going in and failing! All the people there are lovely though and I hope they're probably as nervous as me to start too. I might make a group chat with them just to break the ice a little actually.
Thank you so much for your lovely advice, it has eased my mind up a lot :-)

It's a valuable life lesson. It should teach you that while learning is important, repeating mind-numbing redundant activities is even MORE important. This will be a crucial skill to have once you make it out into the working world.
I know this is nothing compared to the other posts here, and I may come off as ignorant because of it, but can someone remind me...
What's the point of homework again?

It's suppose to reaffirm what you learned in the classroom. Trust me, when you have to learn more information in a smaller amount of time, conditioning yourself to take homework and learning outside the classroom seriously will be very helpful in whatever profession you choose to enter.

As much as I'm hurting financially, nothing made me feel more like shit than my sister telling me that my dad is in early stage of dementia and I really don't have the means to help for his care.

Good luck man, my father passed away from Alzheimer's so i know where this road is leading. Life is tough you know. I hope you have lots of patience, it only gets worse.

Well I am freaking pissed even more at Microsoft and Square Enix. So Rise Of The tomb raider reviews are coming out and it is getting 9's al… morel across the board which I should be happy about right? And in some ways I am, but I can't help, but be pissed that Microsoft chose the worst freaking timing and decided the release it the same day as Fallout 4 and I am pissed at square Enix for making it timed exclusive as well even though I'm on xbox. Because it being Timed exclusive and coming out same day as Fallout means it isn't gonna sell for sh** and it isn't going to get any attention at all which makes me freaking mad because I love this series and I want it to continue and I want everyone else to enjoy it as well, but obviously that isn't going to happen. So thank you Microsoft and Square Enix for the worst decision ever and making it timed exclusive which isn't going to help anybody.
I will be shocked if it even sells 100,000 copies.
We will see how well it sells on the same day Fallout 4 comes out won't we. I was going to try the first one or whatever, the "remake", then i found out the sequel this game was going to be a exclusive. It turned me off the entire series.
Why is it that PlayStation gets a pass on the whole Street fighter exclusive, but when Square does the same fucking thing people are pissed .
Please...
Because PS4 > Xbox 1?

I feel sick right now. My grandmother passed away and it doesn't feel real. She was such a lovely lady and seeing her gone makes me feel very numb. She used to light up the place by making dinner, talking, those grandmother kinds of things. I once told her I was gonna make a cake for both my grandma and my grandpa and they were so exitcted but now my grandma is not able to taste it. I know it's part of life but I didn't think it would happen to soon

I also hate how when I make a joke about PC Masterrace, or console peasants, I get attacked by Console Gamers. Happened on this very forum, by someone who shall remain nameless.
Additional rant: I f**ing hate the gaming community. Everyone has to be a freaking douche to each other and always start console wars and al… moreways have to complain about everything. Why can't people act civilized for once. It's the worst on ign.
It's always "xbox one sucks" or "ps4 sucks or "pc masterrace". It's all bullsh** and people need to grow up and learn to respect each other and stop trying to act like their console is so much better and stop trying to hate on other people's console just to make themselves feel better about their own console. All the systems are nice and pretty much exactly the same except slightly different graphics and a few exclusives here and there.
I swear you never get this crap from nintendo gamers. You never hear them crapping on the other consoles because unlike the other console owners they are actually content with their consoles and are just happy with what they have and keep out of all the console war… [view original content]

Ever since Black Ops 3 came out, some friends on Xbox Live keep badgering me to get Black OOps 3, even though the earliest I can get it is Christmas. Fuck, it's like people forget that AAA games are expensive.
I am hoping that - given the time between now and then - that more work will be put into the PS4 version. Either that, or that they shall at least release a complete edition at a reduced cost. If neither of these situations come to fruition, then I would beleive it safe to declare Square Enix officially soulless.
Exclusitivity deals are just wrong. No matter how it is dressed up.
As for what you are saying, I recall that there was a significant amount of backlash among fans of Street Fighter. I shall grant that it was nowhere near as large as it is here, but it was there

Not that I know of, they just seem to praise Call of Duty above every other game out there like it's the Bible or something. I'm planning on getting Black Ops 3, but it's not my biggest priority, given how stale Call of Duty feels nowadays. Honestly, I'll be glad when the series just dies and people can move on to something fresh.

TBH i don't really care about Street Fighter 5, uncharted or any other lame PS4 exclusive. I can't really think of any good ones, now if they had Fatal Frame, then we talking.
i found out the sequel this game was going to be a exclusive.It turned me off the entire series.
Same thing with the new Street Fighter .
I have a PS4 . Not all that impressed .
Spent 30 minutes in a Mcdonald's Drive thru , waiting for a number 2. WTF MCdonalds, my ptsd anger was off the charts. I was spasming spit out of my mouth, screaming at my phone. I was already angry at the AT&T Girl. My phone for some reason stopped receiving calls, yet i didn't know it. I find out this week, that my ex girlfriend was trying to call me, and i get like 45 voicemails of.
WHy R U IGNORING M3.
My life does not revolve entertaining you. We are not together anymore, after you broke up with me i don't have to answer your calls. Remember you called me CRAZY and stormed off at Caitlin's Graduation. I had to hitch a ride back home because you took my car.

Is it that constant vomiting thing again?
Good thing you're okay
Wow, that's a pretty long time, I saw that you weren't as active [at least on Rhyiona thread] as before. At least it's over, you good now, Dominic?
glad you're back
the last time i was at the hospital was over a year ago, when i was diagnosed with breakbone fever.
idiot nurse showed me how long the needle was of the dextrose.
i would've slapped her but the pain of my hand was over the extremes.
so there was this small puppy that goes to my school almost everyday, he's very friendly and goes near to any student who calls him over.
days after my grandpa died, i returned to school. on that same day, but friends and I were looking for him, because it was quite rare for him to never show up in school campus.

That doesn't sound fun. I usually just look the hell away and hope for the best when there's a needle involved.

But PC is the masterrace. Literally the only thing that a console can have over a PC is exclusives.
