We have added a few things to the requirements to power and ability upgrades. Be sure and read the details in the most recent update when you request a new power / upgrade.
Well, its the weekend here at MHS. Wouldn't it be great if all schools started on a Friday for the first day of school. What a way to start off. You get a weekend right after your first day. Well, this is because we are done with the first day of class. How so you ask. As you only went to one class. yes, but I am sure that doing the same thing for each class would get boring. So the one class you experienced is basically how all the classes are going to be.
Teacher posts role. Day gets started, end of class happens, everyone goes to their next class, or home..
Well, ezboard still hasn't confirmed anything on a final date when everything is changed over to Yuku. And we are working on what to do next. We all want user friendliness after everything is changed away from Ezbaord, and we are trying everything we can to ensure that we have just that when we are at a new board hosting site.
We have a guest book. Take a look. If you haven't taken a look yet, be sure and do so. ^_^

Dropping off the face of the planet
This seems to be the place to go to if your feeling crap, so here I am. Warning, teenage angst ahead, proceed with caution.
I am feeling so damn alone right now. I wish I could curl up and hide for a hundred years or three. I know I'm being dramatic but hey, I'm an actor. It's my right.
My girl friends and I have nothing to talk about. They want to go shopping; I want to read/go on the internet/go to the movies/go out for lunch/do anything but go shopping for things I can’t afford anyway. So basically now my friends have very little to say to me because I refuse to talk about stupid thousand dollar clothes that would look crap on me anyway. And whenever we do talk, I always end up doing someone’s essay. I am not kidding, today I wrote 1,500 words for my guy friend on some creative response to Jane Eyre. And I have no idea why! It sounds ridiculously hypocritical to say I am being used when I agree to it, but if someone knows you won’t say no and ask you to do something because they couldn’t be bothered, is that still using them? The thing is, they are accusing me of being a b*ch because I am saying no more then usual.
And after an incident a few nights ago at a party, I have lost all respect for my closest guy friend (not my boyfriend. jsut making that clear. i don't have a boyfriend). What do you say to a guy who tries to… well you get the idea. I won’t elaborate, but basically I’m just glad I didn’t drink as much as I had planed to.
The problem is I just have no energy. My little sister (16) has Down syndrome and recently had a stroke. She’s lost a third of her brain capacity, and after all her hard years in speech therapy she needs to learn to speak again.
After that, so much seems so ridiculously superficial.
I know a lot of people have it worse, but I needed to get that off my chest. Please excuse me if I annoyed anyone with my pettiness.
For everyone else out there, live long, stay strong Edited by: belovedstranger1ruby at: 11/10/06 7:22 pm

Re: Dropping off the face of the planet
In an attempt to avoid a stereotypical "Keep fighting the good fight!" response, I'm going to attempt to add some colorful Soraness and see where it takes me.
If your friends can't respect that you've grown out of the phase of shopping for the sake of shopping, they're the ones that need to take a moment to inventory priorities. As far as the not being able to say no thing, take it from someone with the exact same problem, you have to get control of those kinds of things. If I write/edit/review a paper for any of my friends, they help me with something I need like covering work shifts, or just being there to talk when I need a fresh perspective.
I'd also like to express my sympathies for your sister. I personally don't have a handi-capped sibling, but I do have a few friends that do. Having seen how some go to great lengths to cover them up, or resent the extra burdens that come along with them, I find it amazingly admirable that you're concerned and want to help out.
In short, if you like the way you are, don't change anything. People will magnetically be pulled toward you if you're confident in yourself and the way you are. That was a little cliche, but noone's perfect ne? *hug* Hope things get better for ya!
Viva la Coolie!

Hey girl, don't be afraid to hurt. I work with handicapped teens, and I understand that its painful. I can't grasp the depths that you do, not being related to them, but don't dismiss your emotions as mere angst. Allow yourself to feel them, because only then can you get over them.
Trust me on that one.

Re: Dropping off the face of the planet
Of course, I can't judge anybody without really knowing them, but I'll try to write up something that's not too offensive to anyone you know.
First off, your friends. You've probably heard it many times, and you've probably thought of it yourself, but I'm going to say it anyway: If your friends don't accept you for who you are, I'd say they're not really your friends.
*points at sig*
After spending just about my entire childhood and early teens (up to the age of about 12) with just about no friends, and having tried to change myself to make some friends (though not drastically), I've actually started to believe they're right. Because in the end, I did end up with several fantastic friends, a great deal of them of the opposite sex.
Now, you've probably already thought of that yourself, and was told the same by just about all the people who you asked for help. And chances are that you don't want to abandon your friends, just so you don't have to be alone again, even if they're not always nice to you. Now, I'm a very picky person, which is one of the main reasons of my lonely childhood. I did abandon the people who I didn't like any more, and was alone for years. But I did end up with a great bunch of friends in the end. That doesn't mean that you'll be without friends for years, like I was. In fact, the whole 'fight' (if I can call it that) between you and your friends might be over in a matter of days.
I can't tell you who to be friends with, I'd probably be abusing you if I did. All I'm trying to say is that some people just aren't compatible at times.
Your boy friend was a real jerk for trying to pull something like that. But people are impulsive, and live by the moment. If he had been drinking a lot and wasn't acting like himself, he may have acted without knowing what he was doing. What I would do (that doesn't mean that you'd be best off doing the same) is just walk up to him somewhere, doesn't matter if he's at home or walking around in a park somewhere. I'd simply walk straight for him, let him know I'm there and coming towards him, and wait for his reaction, find out if he feels guilty or not. The way he thinks of himself having done that is, IMO, probably the most important.
I think know what you mean when you say things look ridiculously superficial. That's what happened to me when I was frustrated like that. Now I don't know if it really is that superficial. All I know for certain at those times is what I want. And the only thing I can think of then is to do that. If it means abandoning my friends again, so be it. If it means clinging to people who claim to be my friend, but only want me to write essays for them, so be it. I just do what I think is right at the time.
I admire you for being so supportive to your sister. I don't have much experience with handicapped people, and I have to admit that deep down I'm a bit relieved about that. I can handle physical handicaps fine, but I'm just not the one to handle the mental ones. I admire you even more for that.
Hm... 't may not be such a bad idea to not take what I've written too seriously. It's pretty late, I'm not thinking 100% straight. What would I know about these kind of things anyway? Hell, I'm just 14.
PS: Sora's right, you know. When I get my first real friend, I got a whole lot more confident, which led to another, and another, and another. Right now, as far as I know, nobody dislikes me, and I have more friends than ever. And they all like me for the sometimes boring but apparently nice guy I am.
And please, don't drop off the face of the planet, you'll make a blood spot on the carpet!
Re: Dropping off the face of the planet
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE DO NOT DROP OFF THE PLACE OF THE PLANET YOU SO COOOOOOOOOOL!
Also, I am sorry about what happened with your sister. And freindly advice S T A Y A W A Y FROM ALCHOHAL! IT BAD FOR YOU!
