>_<
God I want it to stop. Theres a few things bothering me, ever since about saturday I've been feeling just horrible. No, not sick any more that passed rather quickly. It's just this never ending feeling of heartache and confusion. Strange thing is I'm not entirely sure why. Of course I have some things I think might be the problem, some things I'd rather not talk about, (Though maybe I should.....>_<)
One thing I KNOW isn't making me feel anybetter is the inevitable death of my dog. She was acting odd yesterday, normally barking mad and chasing the cats she just curled up on the couch and shook. So I was put on watch (Since I'm home home vacation anyway) and I did my job, I noticed how much water she was drinking, and every time she got up she walked hunched over. By the time my parents got home she was acting more herself, and was at least barking some. So they took her to the vet to get checked out. After spending the night there, she came home today. Running around acting as if nothing was wrong. I go to my parents and ask if she was all better now. They simply say "No, shes not they don't think she'll make it to next week." Turns out she's just home untill that fateful day when her liver gives out and she can't live anymore. Oh yes, today is just the best.
It makes some sense though, another year..another life. Thats how it seems to go for me. Every year I lose something close to me, though just a few months ago seemed over run with deaths, my other dog and my uncle in the same week went shortly before christmas.
That's all for now...gona wait and see how much longer I can keep that other stuff pent inside before I snap. Should be fun to count the days.Current Mood:  Guess |

Yes, here it is, a grand dissappointment in my life. Sad, i know, to be so torn by a simple television show. But it's much more than that.

For a while now, a good friend of mine, Rie, has helpped hype me up about this great special feature show coming on animal planet. Dragons are Coming. How much better can it get?! Finally scientists are begining to think they could have been real. But of course all these good vibes, well there has to be a hitch. Turns out, animal planet doesn't coordinate their features like this, as discovery channel does. (For example the show on pompeii, awsome really it was) No, for the mere fact I live in canada i cannot watch it. Turns out the Canadians animal Planet isn't even planning on showing such a show. At least from what I saw at the website. It is indeed a large dissappointment. Only thing left is to hope sometime in the future the channel gets their act in gear and decides to show it. Untill then I'll be stuck listening to Rie, to find out how everything went, good thing I don't mind a spoiler.Current Mood:  Dissappointed Current Music: None |

Don't you just love those days, where that cold you've had for almost a week finally gets better. Your nose clears, and your head finally feels as if its not going to explode anymore...then BOOM..it hits you. Like a sudden bomb, aches and pains. Stomach cramps. Yes thats right, the flu. Fever and little sleep during the night. Ah being sick is such a joy. For me I was oh so lucky for it to happen right at the beginning of my vacation! Luckily I had no plans, or at least the ones I did already happened. Mmm living off cup'o'soup for the next few days should be fun. Guh, no shopping for PyPy -sniffles- no new game... Hope I don't get in trouble for hopping on to the computer now and then, I just can't lay in bed all day...Current Mood: Sicky....;_; Current Music: Theme to Malcom in the Middle |

I've noticed, in most any online community (One's that I've joined anyway) That there is always a struggle to be accepted. I myself have felt compelled to show off, to try to make a lasting first impression, even when signing up here. However, in our plight to make a lasting impression, many go over board.
If you observe the ones refered to 'Newbies, Newbs, or even n00bs' much of what they want is attention. The veterans of the areas often use those terms with disgust, insults to anyone or anything that has to do with them. (Myself included) Granted much of the time it is granted valid, seeing the idiotic behaviour of certain individuals.
The way I look at it, a newbie is someone who truely is new. It's quite alright to be new to something, for we all must start somewhere. A newbie will definatly have a few questions here and there, and make mistakes. So if that is a newbie, just what is a noob? A n00b, is one who lacks certain qualities, and purposefully disobeys rules and regulations regarding a specific area.
Netspeak is often affiliated with n00bs, and truely I find it annoying. 'Wb', 'Ty', and 'Yw' I accept, because I do get lazy and their merely quick polite reactions to the other, but of course even they must be used with some restraint. 'U', and 'r' are some of the most commonly used netspeak abbreviations. Is it really worth it to cut out two letters? It takes just a second more to write in 'you', or 'are'. To be honest netspeak is merely impairing your general word processing ability. When working in an office, it is not acceptable to to such 'words'. (So please, just take the time to type it out, it's a good habit to get into.)
Certain individuals, n00bs rather, take it as their personal duty to use certain behaviours and netspeak to just anger the serious people around them. This is particularly common in RP, or forums. Moderators can rid the forums of the irrelevant posts, but not always. They can get to be like a plague. I'm not saying every person has to Para(graph) RP, ( though I sure prefer it =P ) a decent attempt at finding you way into the mind of that fictional being, and acting accordingly, and realistically makes a game such as RPing all the more fun (And truly a learning experience. Truthfully my mark in English went up after I got into RP)Current Mood:  hehehe...giddy.. Current Music: Always - Bowling for Soup |
