  1. I see. So it's the same person on that forum who was bothering you before, eh? The one who doesn't do her job right, and such.I remember her, too, haha. Didn't you want Corporal Punishment to take care of her, or something? Good on you on making fun of her. You should also let it slip that Corporal Punishment is coming after her when she leasts expects it!

    Yeah, my dad grew up in poverty a little bit. His father died when he was like five, or less. His oldest sibling was already married by the time he was born. There were twelve siblings, in fact, and he was the second youngest. My mom's family was also biggish-seven kids. I can imagine that many kids would be expensive, eh? And my dad was born in like '44, or some time around then. My mom was born almost ten years later. Actually, we were on the poor side when I was little. My parents were doing a lot better by the time I was in highschool, I think. My mom and dad went to college, I think, but they did like me; went to a community college, got an Associate's. What do your parents do? My dad was in janitorial all his life, and my mom did housekeeping.

    Yeah, I read that. That was actually one of the ones I'd forgotten about (maybe because it was when I first started talking to you that I read that entry.) Maybe you hate him because he likes you, and that alone annoys you. Beyond that, because of this, you are more aware of his faults/more likely to be annoyed by something he says or does. But yeah; if someone wants to fight, I will fight back. In fact, if I get really angry with someone, I might encourage them to hit me; give me an excuse, eh?

    You'd feel responsible for my health and well being-in other words, "mother" me-eh? That's cute ^^ Really, that makes me smile. You're such a sweet person. But I don't think you would have to worry about me too much; I made friends in Yellowstone. The problem with last time was that a lot of them kept quitting or getting fired, and I wasn't getting along with my friend from home. I think I will also try to go in with a different attitude about the whole thing. "I am going to have fun. I am not going to get homesick."

    To me, Kaji was the most admirable male. He had it together, and wasn't a total prick. He even inevitably sacrificed himself for his mission-faced his death with a smile. And Misato was really awesome character, too, of course. I also really liked how much she cared about Shinji-she really seemed to try to reach out to all the kids-and she also was a tough, self-sufficient woman, which I always admire (as long as the girl is tough without being a bitch.) And, she was easy on the eyes, ha. Asuka wasn't so bad... except she was frequently an evil teenage girl, and definitely messed up (although given how she was brought up, one can hardly blame her for that, I suppose.) One of my favorite parts from End of Evangelion was when she started kicking the enemies' asses, and that exciting music started playing. It was like, "Hell yeah!" And really, Shinji didn't bother me too much, except for on a few occasions when he absolutely would not try, and just gave up. I empathize with him a lot more than I'd probably like to admit, heh.

    Good luck with your homework, and writing that screenplay. I will see if I can actually find that screenplay... I have a feeling it might've been on the zip drive I lost. Either way, I will need to find it or get it from my brother in the next few days, so I will be e-mailing it to you. *thumbs up* Anyhoo...

    Wuv, Yer Mom
  2. Talking to my friend indeed helped me much. :3 She said that she doesn't want me to leave her either, so I've some new power now. ^^ Besides, about the person bothering me... she doesn't bother me much. But she's also a mod in the forum, so that's quite a problem. <.<" Actually, that IS the problem. XD I've complained about her, that I don't like her working moral (she doesn't have one, to be exact). And after being forced to say everything that's on my mind I even told her that I don't like her. You can probably imagine how she reacted... she insulted me and then said that she was "so much more mature" than I am. XD As you see... I can laugh about it and I WILL make fun of her. xP It's getting better every day, so probably in a few days I'll have forgotten it. :3"

    Hm. .-. I don't know if my parents ever had any problems concerning money. I'd rather say the generation of my grandparents had... quite many problems. (WWII and stuff XD") My parents both went to... college? Or even university, I don't know what you'd call it. So there was no need for money THAT badly. (As you don't earn any money while studying .-.")

    Trust me, I don't really forget either. Have you read my second journal entry? About that guy going on my nerves because he was once in love with me? I saw him on the forum mentioned above today and he had edited his post and just written "Hehehe, I'm gonna edit this, just cautious ^___^ ". And I thought that he had surely written something stupid again. He always writes stupid things. -.- I don't know what he's done to me, I just know that I've written him into my Death Note (I've one at home - but as you see, it doesn't work XD). I hate him. But I don't know why. x.x It's just that I forget what people have done. It's easier to forgive them, of course, but I still know there was something.
    Besides, if someone's trying to fight you.... fight him back! I don't care if you call that a "bad temper", but you shouldn't just let them win without any fight. <.<"

    Hm, okay. .-. I hope it's different now. I don't want you to be unhappy over here. xD" I'd of course do my best to make you feel better, but I don't know how often we'd meet. I hope you won't be alone all week long. xD" (Have I ever mentioned that I feel responsible for everyone and everything? Be glad, your one of my victims *_*" If you were to come to Germany.. I'd probably feel responsible for you and your health and well-being. XD")

    Hehe, my favorite characters are Misato, Asuka and Kaji. ^_^ Misato always had a cool look on her face (like <_<) and I liked how she grew to like Shinji more and more throughout the whole series. I also liked her relationship with Kaji. That was no romance, but a real love-story. It was nice to see how she really loved him but they just couldn't come together.... (And Kaji was just... fanservice for me <3 XD)
    I don't know why so many people dislike Asuka. She was annoying sometimes, okay, but she had an interesting personality. Not only did she come from Germany (kehhe XD) but she was always determined to reach her aim all the time. She knew what she wanted to become and she tried so hard... though at the end she couldn't do it anymore. .-."
    I also liked Shinji, and I didn't think he was that annoying. If you think about what he's gone through, it's only natural that he became a whiny person. ^^"
    Also, I didn't like Rei. I appreciated her cool personality, but I didn't like her. (I didn't hate anyone either!)
    You should definitely come to my place one time... I'm sure my beloved brother would like to talk to you about NGE. He's a huge fan of the series x3"

    I didn't manage to do all my homework, but I'll do it tomorrow in university. I'll - again - have 2 ½ hours of free time in which I'll probably do all the homework that's left. I hope I'll manage to do so, at least. ^^" Then I'd have a real day off on Wednesday. >3 (Wednesday is my day to do all the homework, normally ^^)

    I know this is a stupid request, but... may I read the script of your brother's new movie? <3 I'd also love to give you the script of our movie, but... ah, you know the basic problem. XD

    Tomorrow I won't be here, just to let you know. <3 I've invited myself for dinner to my aunt. ^_^ My father wants to shoot a movie, too, y'know, about my uncle who's going to be 60 years old next year.~ So I have to investigate what the movie could be about. (I have to write the script, as usual XD")
    So~ now I'm gonna go playing FFXII *_*
  3. Well, I hope talking with your friend helped. At the same time, I will give you this advice: don't worry so much about stupid people on the internet. They are not worth the trouble. Don't even let them know that they are bothering you, because that will probably just encourage them to be even bigger douches (unless they're actually levelheaded/have some sense of accountability.) Just make fun of them, or something. Unless they are following you around in every thread to harrass you... in which case, you have the power to ban them, right? It's not worth losing your best friend over, by any means, I think.

    Heh. See, I wonder if I would've taken that three hour job, in any case. Nah, I probably would've. They probably just needed an extra set of hands, or something. Now, the job I got called for that started at 4:45 AM... there was no way I was doing that, ha (I am not telling him about that one, obviously. I probably knew better about telling him about the other one, too.) It's a different generation. They grew up in a situation where money was very scarce, and they had to save every penny. Or at least my dad did; at one point, his family lived in a one room home, and all the kids slept in the same bed.

    It would be a useful skill, just being able to forget about things, or at least not care about them the next day. But I always remember that crap. I'll see some TFFer who annoyed me with some comment post something else, and it will remind me of what they said to annoy me. Or I'll think about something I said or did that might have upset them, and I'll worry that they might still be upset with me, or some stupid crap like that. That also happens with people in real life, if I'm not seeing/talking to them on a daily basis (and in some cases, I could be talking to them on a regular basis.) Really wish I could stop it... and it's not even so much that I think they could beat me up, or anything; if they started yelling at me or tried to fight me, I'd probably step up and throw it right back at them (in real life, that is.) I actually have a pretty bad temper sometimes...

    When you mention being separated from my mother... it makes me feel like a wuss, ha. But I dunno; it might be different now. It will be a different situation than Yellowstone; I was completely isolated to one small location there, with no transportation. I've also lived on my own for a year now, more or less, and don't see her every day anymore. And I'd be meeting you ^^

    I actually hadn't watched all of evangelion until '07. I'd seen some episodes on Adult Swim, and thought it was weird and that the characters were annoying. Seeing it from the beginning put things more into perspective. So who's your favorite character? Mine is probably Misato or Haji. Asuka totally rubbed me the wrong way, Shinji was frequently annoying, although mostly sympathetic. Rei, I really felt sorry for in many ways. And everyone was really messed up, psychologically. Except Haji, and some of the minor characters. That's something that struck me the most; the way the characters struggled to communicate with each other. All of them. Also, the duel relationships between characters, like Misato and Ritsuko: the friends from college that socialized together, the professional side that often showed Ritsuko scolding Misato for being late or some other thing, and the times when they were opposing each other, and Misato would demand info from Ritsuko, and even slapped her hard across the face at one point.

    Well, hope you got all your homework done, young lady! Hope everything's going well for you. My brother has started filming his new movie this weekend, and I'm going to start next Saturday. I haven't read the script in months, so that is what I will probably be doing with my time, ha (I thought I was starting two weeks from now... apparently, he bumped up the dates on me. I could've done it this weekend, but he dropped it on me that he was starting on Sunday... on Friday.) Anyhoo...

    Wuv, Yer Mom
  4. Yesterday evening I talked to my mother about the problem I have. She couldn't help me that much, but again she told me something that was stuck on my mind since Tuesday: "If you're not comfortable with that anymore... just quit." But quitting would mean that I'd lose my best friend and my place to go to talk about Anime. xD" I've grown used to that place. .-." And I certainly don't want to lose my best friend... I fear we wouldn't talk that much anymore if we were seperated... I should probably talk about that with my best friend.. xD" I'm gonna write her right away :/
    Okay~ I wrote the message... hopefully she can help me X.x

    Gosh, your father's just like mine. -.- How annoying... I hate such situations. <_<" You try to be with your family and enjoy the time with them and your father doesn't appreciate that but just thinks about work. -.- My father's like that, too. When my brother decided he wouldn't work for a firm anymore he was also like "He could've still worked for a week, but he quit. Oh dear!" -.- I just don't get what you did wrong. ôo Being with your family is way more important than going to work - at least in my opinion.

    I really should try to practice an evil grin. *_* Would surely be nice to have.~ *hehe*
    You're memory's frightening. XD" I really had to think about it for a while until I finally knew what you meant by the guy I scared so much that he became a gentleman... You mean Stupid, the guy I worked with a while ago. I've already forgotten about him. XD"
    (It's always nice to think about that. I like how all my problems just fade away after a while. I'll probably laugh about the problems I have at the moment in a week's time XD)

    I can't wait to hear how it turns out. *_* I'm also excited~ I hope you'll get that job. :3 (Though... wouldn't it be as sad as when you were at Yellowstone? .-." I mean, you have to seperate from your mother again... .,.")

    Of course I've watched Evangelion << >> Who hasn't? It was one of my first Anime and I decided to watch the whole series again this year. It's just awesome >//< One of the best Anime indeed!

    I don't really know what I could tell you... And somehow I feel like doing my homework now. O.o" I got a book I have to work with yesterday, so I guess I'll do that now, as I'm willing to. XD
    Aaand my mother told me that there were small fish in our aquarium *_* I've to see them. XD
  5. That's good that you're feeling better. Dwelling on silly things can lead to obsessing over silly things... I know. And eh; I always have a sore throat. Ever since the first time I went to Yellowstone, I frequently have a sore throat. It's irritating. I probably should've had my tonsils removed, but I was afraid, and the doctor told me I might "grow out of it." Now it's too late; not on my parents' insurance anymore. So if I never worked when my throat was sore... I'd probably be out half my life, heh. Thankee for the well wishes! The funny thing is, I got called for a few hour shift today, but I turned it down because my family is getting together today. I mentioned it in front of my parents, and my dad was all like, "He could've worked, but he turned it down. Oh dear." He went on like that for a little while. Like I am struggling to support myself right now. It annoyed me.

    Heh. Freya is intimidating when she's angry. I think that's pretty awesome. You scared that one guy who was being a jerk into being a gentleman, I remember. You should totally practice an evil grin! It'd be even more awesome.

    Snobbish is indeed a word. *thumbs up* And I will let you know if they ask me any questions about Germany. I wasn't really expecting them to, but you never know, eh? And that's cool that it's right near where you live I will definitely keep you posted on how things go. I am really hoping for it, right now. It'd be so cool to go over there and meet you.

    It's okay, ma'am. I understand. Siblings are important. My sibling will be down with his family today. I need to pay him for my cell phone... (I'm on his plan. $15 a month, with unlimited texting! Yiy!)

    Boy, it sure is coming down out there, today. Yesterday at work, I walked straight through the playground area to my next location instead of just walking underneath the coverings, and I immediately thought, "Oh yeah. This was a good idea." Yeah, my life is uninteresting right now... went and saw "The Men Who Stare At Goats" last night. I know you don't watch movies often, but it was pretty quirky and funny-just my kind of movie! And there was hardly any violence, and no sexual stuff at all (although I guess there were some topless women, come to think of it... and there was swearing.) Still, I think my mom might actually be able to enjoy a movie I enjoyed, which is a rarity lately. Maybe you should see it. Btw... you ever seen Evangelion? Love that show, was just thinking about it again.

    Have a good weekend with your bro! Anyhoo...

    Wuv, Yer Mom
  6. Hah, guess what... I've already forgotten about the incident of Tuesday. x3" So no need to worry about me anymore, everything's alright.~ ^^
    Wait - you were ill and yet you went to work? ôo Y'know, that's not good for your health... (says the person who always goes to school/university when ill XD") Hope you feel better today. Try to rest at the weekend, please .-."

    You're just like me. ^^" I'm also the person who doesn't talk that much and just works. My mother told me that this would lead to several problems. Though when I'm angry I show it (unconsciously). When I worked in summer a few months ago everyone knew when I was angry and they knew that they shouldn't talk to me in that state.

    Oh gosh, I just told my brother I only needed 5 more minutes for this VM... DAMN!!! XD And then I read this. And I have to say so much about that topic. <_<"
    Okay, here's the short version (actually I'm not able to make anything short, but anyways xD): When I was 16 I said the exact same thing. xP I said that I hated the youth and that they all were spoiled brats and stuff. XD So acutally, I did what I now despise.. ^^" Then I realized that I was part of the youth... and after a few years I realized that the youth wasn't as bad as I thought it was - just because they were exactly as we were. .-. (If you see any mistake in my logic... it's not my fault. I listen to my brother who's talking German and I try to write English .-.""")

    That's why I mentioned "Oxford English" (ever heard it? XD"). It's the worst kind of language I've ever heard. Perhaps I could even say it's "snobbish". (I heard that word in an English course from a student, I hope it actually exists xD)

    Yay~ Garmisch-Partenkirchen is... well, not next door to my village, but it's quite near. :3 (And it's not Berlin, yay! xD")
    Will they ask you anything about Germany? Feel free to ask me anything about that country, I suppose I'll know much.
    And keep me on track about their answers, please

    So, now I have to concentrate on my brother. He's only there this weekend, so sorry, my dear, he's my top priority today. ;3
    Hope you had a good day... or will have a good day... dunno what time it is in the US now. XD" (It's 7.30 pm over here x3")
  7. Sounds like that guy is an idiot, eh? Heh. Glad to hear you're feeling better after the past two days. My throat is still annoying, but no worse than yesterday, and I think I'm better rested than yesterday, which was undoubtedly a factor. I wanted to stay home and rest today, but the guy I'm covering for pretty much told me he needed me, so...

    I suppose those two old men aren't really that old; they're both in their mid to late fifties. That's still three decades older than me, but still. They liked me, at least. Sure, they'd get annoyed with me a lot, but at the end of the day, I suppose they have each other to be angry at, ha. In the words of one of them, I keep to myself, don't talk too much, and just work." I guess it's hard to tell when I'm annoyed or angry because of that.

    It's not just old people who think the generation younger than them are worthless, though; every generation thinks this way. The younger generation is lazier/more stupid/more whatever than they were, or are. Everybody else sucks, and they're perfect, heh. People tend to lack sympathy and patience, don't you think?

    British English is rather sophisticated, isn't it? I dunno, though; if you listen to The Clash or the Beatles, they don't sound to sophisticated. It's the upper class people who sound too sophisticated. They try to make their speech all flowery with an uncommon vocabulary. People from the US do that, too.

    I gotsta go. I'll try to remember to write more tonight. G'night, lady! Anyhoo...

    Wuv, Yer Mom

    EDIT: Back! Yeah, it sounds like it's in the Bavarian Alps, in the Garmisch-Partenkirchen area. I wonder how long it takes for them to get mail from here... I sent the thing last Friday. And then they probably don't get to it for another several days... hopefully they will before it comes time for the interviews!

    Good luck to you with not having to buy a bunch of expensive books. Thank you for your well wishes. I think might feel a little bit better, although then again... *shrug* can't tell too much of a difference. Good morning, now! (and goodnight for me.)
  8. I didn't write about it in my journal. I didn't feel like it, really. It's been quite a damage that happened on Tuesday evening, but I think I'm better now. x3~ I loooove to rest a night and then kind of forget it all. <3 I'm still mad at the guy who this all was about, but I don't really care that much anymore. Yesterday I woke up and thought about him, that was awful. X.x But today I woke up and... ah, well, I guess I'll write that goddamn PM after writing this VM. xD" (It's... personal. Too much information about myself and... stuff. You'll see XD)

    Why the heck did you have to work with two old men? XD""" That sounds like an awful work. <_<" Don't get me wrong, I don't hate old people, but I've met so many that are sooo~ stupid. <_<""" (When I was in hospital a year ago there was a damn old woman in the bed next to me who even dared to tell me that she disliked the youth and thought that we'd never change anything. -.-)

    Hehe, I like my mom, I like her really much, but she can't help me with English and Math - though I found an old school book of her which contains everything I want to learn. <3 (And also some books about American culture and such x3")
    You might be shocked by what I'll say now, but... I hate British English. XD" If anyone speaks proper "Oxford English", that'd be scary. .-." And I'd hate that person. ^^" Also I don't like people who talk proper German. xD" I like American English more. :3" It sounds like a language people actually talk. British English sounds way too.. sophisticated, in a way. XD"

    Do you already know where exactly in Germany you'll be then? :3 (Haven't I asked that before? <.<" I'm not sure~) If you can choose... *cough* Choose Bavaria. Somewhere near Munich. XD It's Bavaria, damnit! The very best place in Germany. <3 (And basically where I live... but I wouldn't want you to have to be in Berlin <_<""")
    You have to tell me on which day you'll have the interview. I'll cheer for you over here! =D

    Yep, that's what I wanted to do, actually. Buy a cheap book from another student and then sell it to a student. x3" But I've only bought one book so far. It wasn't THAT expensive, but it wasn't that cheap either. xD" I hope there won't be too many books I have to buy. ^^" (Though I still have enough money. .-.")

    You don't have to be sorry if you didn't write as much as I did. (It's quite normal, actually. Women tend to talk more than men xP) Besides, if you've caught a cold you should rest. .-." I'm always happy that you answer my VMs that fast, but you don't have to, really. .,.
    I you won't listen to me, I think I have to come over to your place and care for you. xP

    Hope you feel better already and didn't catch a cold. .-." (Perhaps it was just a dream! XD *stupid Freya*)
  9. Yeah, I suppose sometimes it's best not to talk, eh? I had a lot of those days during the summer, getting up in the damn and working with two grumpy old men who didn't like each other, and who I was also frequently annoyed with. All you really want to say is "Shut up. Shut up. Shut up." or "F you." Well, I hope that stuff gets straightened out for you, sooner than later. I suppose I will have to check to see if you wrote about it in your journal after this.

    Yeah, I suppose that would be an annoying situation, trying to learn with your parents. Particularly your father. I always try to get my mom to help me with stuff, so that's why I made the suggestion. And a lot of times, she's like, "I dunno! Why would I know?" Ha. Well, gersh dernit, lady! There's probably not too many native English speakers around there, is there? I will have to get that job and come over to you ^^ and help you learn some english! (Although it will be US english, which is not proper english!) In any case, they'll be recruiting this month, so if I have an interview, it will be this month.

    Yup. So soon, you will experience the joy of buying books for like $100, and selling them back for $15-30. Or are you gonna keep your books and reread them? Although it's more practical to sell them back. Probably better to sell them directly to a student; more profit for you, and less expensive for them.

    Yeah, I remember odd details, and forget others. Selective memory? Except I have no idea how it works, sometimes... and uh oh! Don't give into temptation! Eat your veggies instead! ...nah, I ate a bunch of candy, too. And ate out like three times, and drank a bit of soda. It probably won't be that bad for you. Unless it's all you ate...

    Gosh, I am feeling a little scatter-brained today. Starting to get a cold. Woke up in the middle of the night with a lot of junk in my mouth and an itchy/sore throat, and it's graduated to a nagging throat. I've been working the past couple days, too, and I'm working today, so that probably contributes a little bit. Sorry if I seem kinda "Buuuuhh..." and this response is short by comparison to what you wrote.

    Feel better! I will try to do the same. Anyhoo...

    Wuv, Yer Mom
  10. I don't feel any better today, but nevertheless I'll answer your VM now. <.<" I'm sick of letting you wait all the time. XD"

    As you experienced yesterday, I wouldn't write you in a really bad mood. xP I even stopped talking to my brother yesterday because I knew it would lead to a catastrophe. (I was about to ask him some questions that are not nice XD" I've done so the whole day long [really hasn't been my day yesterday <.<"] so I didn't want to continue and destroy the friendship my brother and I had built up. It's the same with you.)

    I wouldn't EVER learn with my parents! XD" Nah, sorry, my parents are able to talk English (I guess my father's pretty good at it), but I don't like them to be my teachers. They've not studied the language, so it might end with the same situation I encounter every time I want to learn with someone: I would be the one explaining everything... xD" So my only option would be to talk to a native speaker .-."

    Hm, sounds quite boring, to be honest. .-. Housekeeping's not what I'd want to do in future. ^^" (But I'd also totally dislike to be a politician XD)
    When will you know if you'll come to me? :3

    Sorry, I don't really know any comedians. .-." I've known a few German ones many years ago, but they all stopped being funny, so I didn't watch any of those shows anymore. ^^"
    (And DAMN all my friends are better at bowling than I am! XD)

    Hehe, I'll buy all my books by myself. ^^ But my parents pay for my ticket for the train every month. So they also have to pay much. (And they insisted on paying it; quote: "We also pay the ticket for your brother, so we'll also pay yours!" <_<)
    By far there's only one book I have to buy, it's a grammar book. .-. Later I've to buy some (2-3?) books for my literary course. But that'll be no problem as I love reading anyways. <3

    Wow, your memory seems to be working perfectly. O.o Yes, my dad said that I'm not allowed to drive without having breakfast. But that's due to the fact that I have to wake up. XD Normally I get up and then just spend 15 minutes in the bathroom and then go outside. That's not enough - at least that's what my father thinks. ^^"
    I'd say I'm even more tired when coming home from university lately. .-." I come home quite late at Tuesday and Thursday, so I'm always really tired. xD"

    Now I get to eat all the candy... and get faaaaat ;o; Just kidding XD
    I'll probably eat some of it today.. I'm really hungry, haven't eaten much today. XD"

    Hope you have a nicer day than I had today... xD"
  11. I'm glad that I'm not hated ^^ Do what you need to, ma'am. You can conplain to me if you want to. I hope things turn out okay for you.
  12. I hate mankind. I seriously hate them all! >///< (All except for my mother, my brother, you... and a few others XD)
    I wanted to answer your VM today, but a "friend" (I won't call him that <.<") got on my nerves so I'm so aggressive I'd probably just bitch around. <_<"
    I'm still unsure if I'll write it into my journal or if I'll just tell you tomorrow (when all of that shit is over! -.-).... you'll probably see ^^"
  13. I understand that it's hard to come up with things to talk about; it's all good I'm not hard to please. Maybe just drop in a little more often to say hi maybe, continue being nice to me, and not get all jaded and stuff. Although if you do get jaded, I won't disown you. You just need to realize that you're in a bad mood, and that that isn't necessarily the best way to be. I got jaded really bad a couple years ago, and it took some work to mellow out again (I don't think I'm all the way mellowed out now) so I know it can be hard. Particularly when people don't help.

    Hey, if your other classes are boring, that means they're going okay, right? I understand the english grammar part is a struggle right now. Do you have anyone to practice with? Do your parents know any english? That would probably make learning it easier. Maybe you could get someone else from the class to help you with it.

    If I worked at that resort, it would be in the "hospitality" business. IE, I'd do housekeeping or janitorial or something (the opening was for housekeeping. I've not done housekeeping... I've done the hospitality thing though, I think. It's a bit of a longshot...)

    Bowling is okay. It's fun to bowl with friends at least, who are as bad at it as you are, heh. I like Jim Gaffigan's take on bowling. He says, "Bowling is the thing you do, when there's nothing else left to do. 'We could go bowling. Or we could just hang ourselves. Why don't we go bowling?'" Haha. Do you like any comedians? My favorites are Jim Gaffigan and Mike Birbiglia.

    My parents actually paid for my credits, and I paid for books, because I had no money. I did really good during college, though; finished with a 3.57 GPA (there were a couple C's that were my worst grades. Macro Economics and Trigonometry. I had just come off a really easy semester, so those two together caught me off guard completely.)

    Yesterday, I tried to do like my roommate and go from a pull up to pushing myself up on the thing that we pull up on. And I tried it like three times. That's probably why my shoulders are sore, heh. That guy.... he's in mad good shape, and doesn't seem to realize it. Striving for perfection, probably.

    You feel hungry when you go walking without breakfast? Heh. Maybe a little dizzy due to lack of food. I know you said your dad wouldn't let you drive to work without having eaten something, before.

    Sorry you got no trick-or-treaters, lady. Look at it this way, though; now you get to eat all the candy! ...have a good rest of the weekend, ma'am. Anyhoo....

  14. I'm sorry T.T I really am not able to write regularly. I don't know why. I just don't feel like writing every day. (I don't know why. XD" I still have to answer a mail from a good friend of mine, too .,.") It's not that I dislike talking to you, or even reading what you've done. It's just that these little messages are handier than our long conversations. xD"
    So you don't see a problem? (Except for my not being able to write regularly *cough*)

    My god! O_O I was really shocked to read that you want to work in Germany! Of course I'd visit you! (You should best be in Bavaria *hrhr* xD) I wouldn't miss that chance!
    So what will you do when you get this job? Military sounds... well, not that great. xD" And I didn't know that Americans were still somewehre in Germany. o.o If you need to learn German.. just ask me, I think I could teach you some German. xP Though I'm not good at it. XD

    Bowling - sounds fun. ^^ I went bowling with friends a few years ago. I just sucked at this game. XD That's why I prefer to play billard x3"

    Hehe, I hope that they'll someday realize that it costs money to study. (We have to pay a LOT XD") But you know, there's this one problem: Parents. Some students actually have parents who pay for them. Meaning: They don't have to do anything to earn the money for their studies. They just have their parents buying them books and stuff. There are some (not many, I hope) who don't work, who just go to parties and let their parents manage everything. And the worst thing about this: Many parents are stupid enough to actually DO it. XD" My parents wouldn't give me any money. xD" Okay, they would, actually, but they wouldn't buy everything. They wanted me to work so that I had some experience (and some money). .-. I just don't get why some parents are so... stupid. xD" (Over-caring might fit better, actually.)

    (You're a man. You're just a man. ARGH! XD Read the paragraph about the grammar course again, please. Particularly, read the "I should probably train to talk English now." part a few times, please. XD)

    Your shoulders are sore? o.o What have you done? xD"

    Going on a walk before eating something might be healthy... But I feel bad when I do it. ^^" I just feel... I dunno... I don't like the feeling. xD" Can't describe it, but I stopped walking before breakfast. xD"

    Btw. still no kids in costumes......... I'm gonna go crying now ToT Damn those kids!
  15. I dunno what's happened with our conversation. I just know that I haven't really expected to hear from you for like the past few weeks anymore, so when you do write me something, I'm like, "Oh! Freya's back again!" You do talk a lot about your life, but I also ask you a lot of questions about your life. I guess I am prying like that, heh.

    This past week... I have been very lazy. I only worked one day, and that was for a couple hours. The rest of the week, I hung out at my house or my parents' house, exercising, watching movies, looking at TFF, trying to be creative... and I applied for something. It's an interesting position. I don't know if I will get it, but if I do, come next year, I will be working for a year and a month at a resort on a military base in Germany. If I get that position, I hope you'll come and visit me, or let me visit you. If not... I'm doin' it anyway, so there Took a long time to fill out the forms, because they had a lot of military lingo I didn't understand, and I needed information I didn't have anymore on past jobs. I should probably still look for more places to apply this week, though. Got plenty of money in the bank, so not really worried about that for a couple of months at least.

    My friends and I did stuff last night, actually. We have a group called "Friday Alternative" that some of my friends run, and last night, we went bowling; some people in costumes (I did not. I was lazy and put off trying to come up with something until the last minute.)

    Heh, I remember going to college and having people who would just talk the whole time. It was distracting, particularly when they were my friends (or friend of friends.) They took the same class as me, and the professor was this young lady who I'd taken courses from a few times before, so she knew me and liked me. And she got after them one time, I was embarrassed, and she was like "You're okay, Tom. I don't want you to think you're in on this. It's just them." Good for a face palm, eh? I think the problem was that they hadn't gotten past the highschool mentality yet. Not realizing that this costs a lot of money, and that if they don't pass, they'll have to pay for it twice.

    That's the jist of it. Sounds like things are going okay with you. Glad to hear your sister realized she was being silly. Hope you do well in that English grammar course, too. ...my shoulders are sore. I need to go for a walk this morning, too (been doing that, before I eat anything. Drink a cup of coffee and then go for a walk. Supposed to burn the fat.) Have a good weekend! Anyhoo...
