"So give me something to believe.
Cause I am living just to breathe.
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for.
So give me something to believe.
I am hiding from some beast.
But the beast was always here.
Watching without eyes
Because the beast is just my fear.
That I am just nothing.
Now its just what I've become.
What am I waiting for?
Its already done."

"Well, I don't want the world to see me. Cuz I don't think that they'd understand. When everything's made to be broken, I just want you to know who I am."
"I will do the things that I wanna do.
I ain't got a thing to prove to you.
I eat my candy with some pork and beans.
Excuse my manners if I make a scene..."
"Read between the lines of 'what's *&*^ed up' and 'everything's alright'."

By the way, why are all these questions being asked in a single day? Or is everyone on Aussie time? Seems like I blink and the next day is up. Or was having one a day not realistic?

The Question Of The Day on 2008-05-29 23:45:10 |
|
The only thing I can think of was telling tall tales as a kid. I tried convincing classmates of several ridiculous stories just cuz I had only a fraction of the wealth and good times they did. Missing out, I had to come up with something to talk about. Pathetic really. It took too much effort to convince them. And, I don't think they ever really bought any of it. Waste of time and energy.
But, I say, this will show some people's true colors compared to comments in the last question. To a "T".

I suppose once people knew I was commenting on this, they might be salivating to "hear" what I had to say...just as they salivate to read and sweat about saying what they do.
I have done this before in high school writing a line about every one of my classmates. It has good and negative responses. Many don't like to be talked about. Many don't like what I have to say. Many are just curious til it pops out and the party ends.
So, I opt to...NOT tell a line about all those on my list(and some that are not yet).
I also opt not to pick a diary to read. Everyone deserves some privacy and the right to fess up. We are all here for our own reasons like the cast of LOST on the island. My answer is insignifigant at this time, and I have no overwhelming curiosity to read the depths of anyone's heart and mind if I cannot share a life with them in person.
Sorry for being a downer again, MKaye:P
And, missmarie? She said a line...not a paragraph:P heh.
I'll be back for breakfast.

Lamp, you might be surprised the variety of people I find appealing/attractive. Sometimes/many times, it's more about choosing or confidence to try that makes the difference. Sometimes too many choices/second thoughts; sometimes fear takes control.

Losing sanity over a few minutes late on top of other daily stresses? Sounds like my sister not forgiving her friends for drinking alcohol on her wedding limo bus. Pardon me for being on the not so supportive "just break his bones" side.
Maybe Im just tired, but I dont see the big deal. It sure seems the few minutes late made a bigger deal/impact than the reality of the situation. It's just how things are gonna be when there is this grudge between you two. When you learn to hate someone or detest sharing space with them...any lil thing is gonna set you off/irk you. SO, big deal.
Oh, and snakes dont have knees. Im not saying he is a snake. Im just telling a natural fact:P heh.

Well, let's just hope no evil pixies of deceit come out of that patch, hmm? Love without honesty? I suppose when you make love in the dark, you don't see everything...so same goes for everything else? Sounds like flying into a cloud and not knowing what to expect. Not very secure to me.
Smiley, you made me smile with this one:) A bit shorter and less involved than I had hoped:P But, you got right to the point and gave me another reason(or refresher of)why to like you:P I'm sketching something in my mind right now:)

Finally, PHEW! My turn...though it's rather obvious if you think about it:P...no? Nothing? Bueller? >>sounds of crickets<<
Actually, I was torn between something movie related and something simply brain/thought related. I came here initially just to review movies. But, I suspected I might end up doing something else. I consider myself an idea man. So, there you have it.
And, in light of recent "drama-phobics" I aim to stand tall in the face of said drama. I will storm through it without the weakness to fall back and reapply here. I stand by my title/ID. However, there may be other reasons I would make a change...
I think it was Gwatlan a while back who mistook my ID for "barnstormer"...and I thought that would be cool as a substitute if I went with a pilot Snoopy pic:P
I laugh every time I read something by E2S and find myself saying "Ha! Easy for you to say!" So, maybe E4U2S or Easy4U2Say would be a good sub for ya?:P
When you said you were waiting for Long and luckyluci...I knew exactly what you were thinking:P Any cramps coming on?

I wonder how I'd raise a cat when in such a situation. I'd rather have the going out money and survival funds(if I had places to go and people to go with of course). Can you survive without allergy pills? Just fight through it like me?
Should I be glad not to have IE 7?? Glad I didnt use Turbotax??

Blood and the Moon Chapter 1 on 2008-05-25 21:50:40 |
|
Ok, til I reached the end, I thought it was a poor idea to start with such an action scene. First off, work on spelling. Second, if this was a premonition of this guy's, don't use anyone's name. Just leave it as the chase between the vamp and the wolf anonymous. There are a few minor slip ups elsewhere(like when you say she was digging in and then dug in with her nails). Other than that, this is not technically long enough to be a chapter one. Maybe a Prologue. But, you have some good ideas brewing here. Though it sounds alot like Underworld:p

True, can't make snap decisions like that sometimes. But, it sounds like this has been stewing a while. Also, it seems friends--particularly women--have ups and downs. My sis has been friends and enemies with her friends all her life. Most recently, it was her own fault for crabbing so bad cuz her friends decided to go for drinks when she did not want them to at her wedding. Talk about Bridezilla. RAAAAWR!! Hisssflaaaames...

3 1/2?? Wow, way too young. Nope, IMAX won't make a difference. In fact, it would be overkill(especially if it was in 3D). I thought maybe he was at least 5 or 7. Nope, to a kid that young, it'll probably just look like a bunch of angry people and a few scenes with Hotwheels.

Drama mama Drama....blah blah...ah dah dah dah...yada, yada yada.
If you look at it from all sides, words cancel each other out. We dont want drama but we create drama talking about it. We can't escape what we won't avoid looking into(damn curiosity in some of you people:P). So, why bother saying anything? I can shake my head forever like a bobblehead cuz I can cancel my own words out before I say them. I know what will be said in response, so I dont bother. That's why I dont have any great genius story posts lately(if ever). But, Im a cookin up someting:P

Perspective...if not for the media, we would probably not know of the troubles across the ocean unless sea faring people carried tales in their journeys. Yes, others are worse off, but that doesn't eliminate or excuse our own woes. We are just as much in need as they are with different circumstances. And, for all we know, they may feel many of the same woes we do ON TOP of the economic and survival factors. Could it be like those old sci-fi movies? Too many people on Earth and we have to start making choices? Scary thought.

Im so sick of that low self esteem and love yourself crap. I am seriously going to have to make a post of grievances and/or things I cant stand not knowing the meaning of.
I happen to find some degree of low esteem in women/girls endearing. It allows me to be a bit of a perker-upper. It is when it becomes constant "whining"(a word I dont like to use as it has been used on me) or a seemingly unrelievable problem that I start looking for my lifejacket. Its okay to be down on yourself now and then...but if none of my tricks in the bag work long enough or at all, I cant do any good with that person:P

How would anyone know you were an avid writer? And, your family would sneak a peek at a paper journal but not an online one? You think its better for hundreds of strangers to "see you naked" than your family? Well, thanks at least for identifying the past. Of course it is easier to type and delete than write and erase. Just a shame it has to be harder on the eyes.

"TCoNarnia: Prince Caspian"--movie review on 2008-05-19 11:01:13 |
|
I should add my strong disapproval of the comments by such critics as on the Ebert and Roeper show(which I saw/heard last night). They always root for the "artsy" foreign films no matter how dry/dull or disturbed they are yet criticized a film like this--as I had said--harshly saying there is no reason to care for the characters of which there are too many and that there are too many battle scenes. I see no difference other than concept and character types that makes this film different from any "chapter" in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
They also criticized how the kids are able to fight so well. Did they not realize or know the kids had been there before and grew up training? It is as if they didn't know/read the story. They didn't mention the change of plot from the book(as denoted in the wikipedia article) which may further prove my theory. I have not read the books myself, but I think I have a better grasp on the story if they cannot tell why the kids are so skilled.
The only moment of skill that made less sense is when Peter and Edmund were able to push the stone from the door themselves to get into the castle basement. But, honestly, these TV critics get on my nerves sometimes.

Coffee is the last thing you need with that caffeine-enraged guy flailing about madly. Oh sure, you may find a cast of women here who could side with you in a heartbeat like a pack of man-hating feminists(who might in turn make their own men mad if they found out they felt that way even if it is just internet sympathy after indulging the curiosity to read this...tirade as you called what he does?).
Im not fond of some(if not most) therapists myself when they throw terms like that around and the "victim" feels it is unjustified. A poor soul can find himself up against the world with no one on his side. Then he is left with a choice...villian or rebel hero. Let's hope he does not become "The Joker" or "Two-Face".

Tip/word of advice one, get hip to fruit wherever you go(and I hope it goes down well). Plants are more and more a necessity to eat in life. If you can get hip to the vegetation versus KFC, your chance at survival and a long life improve astoundingly. Aside from all that, I have no idea what this ceremony is really all good for, but I dont think you need luck:)

This coming from a young rebel?:P I think I wrote something on respect once already. But, always keep it in the back of your mind. Respect a stranger you don't know yet, but give them the same chances as those you've met. Three strikes is all it takes to cut them off from being given breaks. He may be king, as Bush is president. But, should he prove unworthy of such respect, I hope your time/life/heart/effort wasn't poorly spent.

The day that changed my life on 2008-05-17 22:22:24 |
|
In less than two weeks you have battled so much and put such demands on yourself...why? Its only been two weeks in a new country! Unless you have a deadline telling you that your time is up and you need to get out of town asap...slow it down a lil and try to take it in. Given the chance(and provided I was not a nervous wreck worried about my survival), Id want to sit back and absorb as much as I could. I am sort of obsessed with Asian culture. When the trip is over, that's when I start to cry because I didn't get as much out of it as I wanted. Part of me wants to live there forever. The other part remembers "reality" and is used to the ins and outs of it even if I hate it. Always sucks to come back from a "holiday"(which has a different meaning for you Brits than for us Yanks:P).
Ya ever read "The Last Unicorn"? When the animal was turned human by a bumbling wizard, she was so distraught, she started tearing at her own flesh for what she had become. You could just as well be crying out like so many here and expose yourself down to the nipples and bellybutton...further south? Sky's the limit. While you are evaluating yourself and your millions of thoughts and plans/necessities, you have one choice here. Expose all, some or none. Exposing all can be very cathartic in a way...but imagine walking around nude all day for ?? length of time. Exposing none could result in an explosion from within. Could relapse either way into the bad habits you experienced at a young "uni" age. Just take time to "think" before you speak. And, maybe find a few "friends" you can talk to rather than shouting dirty laundry to the world only to later say "I did it...I put it all out there...now they know everything and I can't take it back". Of course, this place has a nice lil DELETE feature...but some would say "once it's out there, it's out there forever".
I also find it amazing you didn't fall harder. You never attempted suicide? After such a devastating blow, you never once pondered ending your own life? Most people when the lose such a love don't want to be alive anymore. Somehow you didn't even give it a thought and merely plugged yourself up with a cardboard cutout to stand in your stead. Freaking unbelievable. Your astrology suits you, it seems.
Hope I didnt just tax yer mind:P

Getting Organised!! on 2008-05-17 22:01:51 |

You keep mentioning the westerners are coming...the westerners are coming:P UGH! I suppose repetition is a side effect of solitude. You are just exhaling in the cold. Keeping warm/cool.
One thing I am sure about without knowing anything Thai first hand, friends I am sure will be easy to make as long as you remember what you learned back when with your folks. Respect and kindness/compassion. I think any Asian culture(Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai) would have similar serenity and peace of mind for respecting strangers unless they are so "modernized"/"westernized". Sure, your Thai is quite limited at first, but it just takes a good group of companions at your lunch table every day or a strong connection with someone you can spend more time with to start to pick things up. I know Brits are good at faking an American accent, so:P
I suppose I should add that I had "plans" to be in Thailand this year before monsoon season. But, due to lack of experience/confidence and an uncertainty of how to plan/who to trust, I backed out of it. Otherwise, I'd probably run into you one day. Maybe:P And, wonder who is this fellow foreigner to this land. I was told monsoons start in April and that the best time to go to Thailand was between November and February. So much for that theory this year, ay?
One thing to try is get silly. Pick up a phrase in a book or on the street and just start messing with it. I took 2 yrs of Spanish and never had anyone to really use it with. So, it sort of went to waste, but I still remember a few words/phrases...provided they are spoken like mollasses.

Always good to get a walkabout in if you are safe to do so. As for things "better done with a friend", perhaps its about time you learned to enjoy a few with yourself as a friend. I would not go to a movie by myself for the longest time because I was told it was silly, stupid, gay...you name it. I was told only dates, friends and family go to movies and never alone. But, then I met someone online who rocked my mental world. And, she inspired me one day to go on a cyber-mutual date. Talk about safety:P We both were in different countries going to see the same movie the same day and then came back together to talk about it. It was a great--though sad to be apart/alone still in the end--experience that openned my stubborn, fearful eyes to something new. Now, I dont mind going to the movies alone. I have the row of seats to myself usually and no one whispering or laughing or eating or whining over my shoulder. The world is swiftly changing as people keep cheating and stealing. Theaters seem as futile as gasoline. But, there is still a magic in those big dark rooms full of empty seats and a big screen. If you want someone to "go with"...

Me, myself and I on 2008-05-17 21:38:26 |
|
So young and yet so far ahead despite all the pitfalls...ya know its funny/strange how from a western perspective, getting a job offer in India from the UK might be no different than someone from NYC getting a job in LA. But, it seems so much bigger from here in a small time state reading about it. Especially when we get to the Thailand part which initially depressed me from reading anything further. That and being a teacher purposely using an ID with TOUGHT in it instead of thought or taught:P
Amazing how such an event fell in your lap when so many say "Things like that don't just come to our front door. We have to go out there and find or get them."
Oh, and never end with THE END. Death will determine that for your time on Earth(or wherever you may be). But, even that may not be the end.
You blow my kermudgened aging mind.

I did the same thing my first time out of the States. Alot of TV time alone just trying to catch my breath...but you have been in India as well. Different country, but second time around(or more) in terms of new pad for you.
Oh, could you stop writing in purple on blue?:P I have to highlight everything.
How frightful it is to think of having to BUY water everywhere I go instead of a simple faucet or the OLDE fashion way of going to a river or lake and maybe boiling it first. As for toting the loads home, I am not aware if Thailand is anything like Chicago or Rome, but if it is unbearably hot for walking yet things are in walking distance, take smaller trips more frequently and monitor time of day/weather. If you have to get up early or head out after sunset to beat the heat... If you have to go before/after work and just get a few things at a time... I dunno, just ideas.

Up for the challenge!!! on 2008-05-17 21:16:00 |

Though challenged up the wazoo, you seem in control and able to set a schedule/plan. I think if it was me, part of me would be formulating a plan while another bigger part would be one step from hyperventilating:P If anyone came to me with the slightest demand(bill, deadline, etc.), I'd probably lash out and squeal loudly about the pressure I'm feeling:P

All I can do is sigh and remember to breathe as just the thought of being an onl child in Thailand(I assume for the first time) suddenly wise to the world around her?...feeling the pressures of planning something like that by herself(assuming its the first time you have done such)...remember to breathe.
I dont know if/think it would go smoothly at all with my folks. And, I know I'd want some help with the planning if nothing more than a back massage and a few reassuring words. I get chills up my spine trying to imagine being lone away from what I know for so long and then even dare to try planning something like that...sigh.

I am envious of anyone able to get to Thailand before me not to mention work there(maybe, I dont know what everything is like there to begin with:P). I am also envious that you seem to be better with your thoughts. I bet you are years ahead of me and like so many soaring to the stars while I am peddling my winged bicycle trying to get there the hard way. You dont need wishes of luck. You already have it and seem to be doing well. Someday...

My only regret is that you jumbled it together:P But what else would you do with a list of thoughts? I see a bit of myself in each pommegranite seed of revelation you planted here. We face many of the same lil issues that seem insurmountable. Name calling being a rather minor yet still stinging one.
Anyway, I dont know how you are beating your fears...but I am still clueless about mine other than knowing I have to face them if I hope to get past them.

BINGO! That must be it. The game is afoot.

If it happenned in that order. Recall what you said about that guy praising/doting on you earlier and didnt know where that came from?

Psh, good luck with that one, roe:P Dont think she is the type if she is riding and competing with dirt bikes. But, you DO need to exercise your body and mind before bed to break out of restlessness. There are tricks for raising your arms and yawning, etc...but I forget. Drinking water is supposed to help too. You have way too many things going through your mind late at night. Its hard enough for me to put myself to sleep sometimes. Fantasies help. Or a TV on sleep timer.

How sad to be so jaded at 24:P
You have quite the bitter sense of humor though:) Very amusing interaction with the coworker. I see your pic and can picture your face perfectly in the situation. So, these posts relate to each other...interesting:P
I may not be a good cook either with little experience, but I can read instructions like anyone(though I dont like to follow them always:P) and am willing to learn with the right teacher.
Just thinking of toast, water and nachos makes me want to cry.
By the way, why the heck are you so messed up to watch stuff and talk stuff that freaks you out late at night?!?! GEESH! Do you touch the hot stove when your mother says dont cuz you will get hurt? Dont be stupid. Stop thinking/watching the scary crap. I dont like it either.

Half a million for a wedding, 1,000 for a college on 2008-05-09 00:51:10 |
|
You, missy, have just stole my heart for the night:P Hilarious ideas:) I didn't think I could be so anti-love myself til I read this:P
"In tolerance"...good one:)
As for the money on the wedding thing, I too want an inexpensive and preferably private wedding...and the reception should be a pitch in effort to share in the joy.
As for the bedroom biz, I have said it more than once...separate rooms as well as one shared room. When you want to sleep together, shared room. When you want some alone time just to think(no, it doesnt have to signal the marriage's end, fear not), the separate room designed to satisfy those decorating preferences:P(cuz what are the odds both will truly agree on decorating style? how many guys just say "I dont care, do whatever"?)
I think you've gone a lil mad with the decorating bit. Yes, I think my sisters and mother are mad for getting married and deciding to take over rooms with their ideas...but am I any better cuz I have plenty of ideas for decorating. Too many. But, yea, the dominating decorating is laughable in a way. I dont want Asylum White at all:P heck no. Only if it is a blank canvas to paint a mural on.
Im laughing at the cooking part too:P Bur, I think some ppl can become magically inclined in love. Love can make you do amazing things. You never sung or danced and now you feel like doing it? Is that so hard to believe, miss jaded much?:P
So, you prefer an old fashion story, fine. Be that way:P So, you prefer dirt; yippy.
Well, count me out:P I am not auto inclined much less any repair inclination. I'll help with laundry, cooking, etc:P
Wow, I stopped laughing when I got to the bottom though. Screwed enough to have kids? Fooling around are we? Or what? Wow, jaded across the board.
But, I do admit to the nurse factor:P heh.
So, your fantasy man is a greasy, sleazy auto mechanic with body hair....gee, such a rare species:P

The Sexual Peak - My sexual peak? on 2008-05-08 19:13:06 |

I saw my name, and I capitalize on it:P Ha! Oh, Easytosay...you made the popular blog list in less time than me. There must be more sex-talking maniacs here than you can shake a d&*( at:P Is that all people come here to read? Is that why Nutshell and TheAmandaChronicles stay in business? Am I wrong in thinking there are ten times as many women on here all at home much of the day reading sexual scandals and exploits?
Miss M, I think about this matter alot myself in recent years. But, I suppose I changed greatly back in 2003 when I met someone rather unique online. Since then, my mind has been very tempted and distracted. Before, I never would have given it a thought unless I was with someone. Now, I feel like a tiger crossed with a rabbit. Hmm... Oh! Leg cramp:P NOT
Oh, and you appear to be a Libra Tiger...no wonder you feel the need to vent/talk alot and hem and haw so much:P Fence wavering. Nervous energy.
And, I dont know if everyone peaks at the same time. Some think things earlier than others too. I was the first in my class other than this kid Jason to admit I liked girls:P I was 4. I never said "ew, cooties!"

Iron Man was Fun! on 2008-05-04 23:04:43 |
|
You basically summed it up in a third of the space I took:P I would not compare it to Batman Begins--which is yet another sadly titled sequel/recreation of a character that has been messed with and a film which had some poor fight scenes. Both Batman and Iron Man lacked a lil in the fight department. Iron Man kicked but in plain view, but there was little competition. I wanted the two big suits to duke it out a lil more than a few minutes with lasers blasting. The explosion was a bummer. And, I agree about Fury. Thanks for spoiling:P

A scorpio rat grinding her teeth and clawing the counter at her work station with animosity for her thoughtless coworkers while dreaming of her BF owning a house with her. The wrapper was not mocking but telling you to speak up instead. And, don't use hostile words. Simply ask "can I come too?" without rasping at anyone and take what comes of it. Pardon me for indulging in my astrology, but rats are known for griping and clinging...and perhaps they wanted neither at this get together. Sometimes we smell of negative energy, and many will try to avoid it.

I fear teasing about the disease is infecting you all as you speak:P
Reading this after just seeing the new Iron Man movie, I feel compelled to make a comparison. Seeing a newer teacher want to teach inaccurate English sounds as infuriating as the villain of the movie turning Stark's technology against him. I feel the need to strap on my own suit of armor and go to war with these illiteracy selling people. Texting is not a language!!![Although, I suppose it could simplify learning to some degree. But, UGH!]

Tourist rip-off Italy on 2008-05-04 00:31:10 |
|
Do you honestly think it helps to say "we are tourists and dont want to be ripped off"?? I dont think so. You were a guest in a foreign land. Your ways may be different. Italy is a land that likes to haggle and bargain. Perhaps you could have insisted you pay less cuz the service was not to your liking? That might work better. But, also, might it be wise to see a menu and be aware of the prices? If the price changes too greatly from the written menu, then you could argue it. Is that so hard? Greeks are nicer:) But, dont ruin the ruins, k?

"Real World" Love and Relationships on 2008-05-03 00:39:32 |

Im not first?:P
I agree with you up to the point of "unconditional love"...I doubt the genuine nature of such "love" on here. I sense many are doing their part as "kiss ups" moreso than genuine support...or maybe Im just cynical and thick-skinned:P It just seems too easy to spread "love" online. It's as simple as playing some online kiddy game site like Neopets and buying flowers from some shop...none of it exists. Just pixels and data. I feel the same goes for expressions of feelings. It takes a genuine effort sometimes in person, but online it's just a click.
I envy anyone who finds genuine love online. If it really does work, Im astounded.
Well written post, though. Better said than one or two of mine:)
