The Chill Conversation and Rambling Zone

Well, I failed. ^ Ah well; having extra bud around isn't a bad thing. I'll just add it to my vaped bud whenever I decide make a tincture for future use.

On another note, apartment searching sucks. But I guess that's mostly my fault; I'm being picky. I want a place that's no more than $700/month for rent and is within a 45 minute drive to both my work and school. Problem there is that driving from college to work takes 45 minutes... Right now, I live closer to the school, and the city is really great. I hate to move from here, but the cost of living is much higher. And now, an additional housing requirement is that I have a garage, because I've decided to finally get a motorcycle this year (I've been telling myself for the last two or three years that I want one). Oh, and it needs to be cat friendly.

I found one place (online--haven't been on site yet) that seems promising. $625 rent, beautiful and private residence (with maybe 3-4 other tenants on site, plus the owners), and a huge garage. It's ~35 minutes from work, but 70 minutes from college. But... that might be doable. Currently, I'm about 20 minutes from college (but I'm taking online classes this semester anyway). Downside is that I've finished pretty much all the classes that are available online, plus I'll be working 9-10 hour shifts once I start my new job (currently I'm scheduled for 8 hour shifts). Not sure if I'll be working on weekends, though I'm guessing not since I won't really be part of production anymore? But I dunno.

Ok, that's enough rambling/ranting for a while, I need to continue searching craigslist for motorcycles and apartments.

edit: damn, I just realized the "promising" place I found was actually posted almost a month ago. suppose it might still be available since they didn't take down the ad.

I need to fuck a Succubus already.

**SnowyCat** · 03-29-2013 04:53 PM

Oh man. Last night. THAT'LL teach me to drink and IRC.

**Linkzelda** · 03-29-2013 07:26 PM

Drink spoiled milk and IRC?

No no no no!

I've been having panic attacks more regularly these couple of days. It happens if I'm pressurised to finish something quickly that I'm not strong at or my OCD just screws me up giving me bad thoughts about messing up my work.

I finally understood why I always appeared calm in school, because I really can't handle the stress, literally, almost felt like fainting because of the panic attacks.

When I was stressed out and stayed up late doing homework, I would roleplay with my assignments and play battle music occasionally. Made things a lot more fun at 2AM in the morning.

Lol. I never tried that. Usually if I'm rushing assignments till late at night, I wouldn't have the extra energy to physical battle them.

Ugh I'm so annoyed by a friend who tags me in every bloody post he finds interesting. I think I'm not annoyed by his posts, I'm annoyed with him. Maybe it's time I end this friendship.

**Linkzelda** · 03-31-2013 02:37 PM

Facebook huh?

**Carrot** · 03-31-2013 02:53 PM

Yeah facebook. But he's my real life friend too. I just told him to stop tagging me in posts.

On a side note, another lucid dream!

It's amazing I can get lucid dreams without trying after my first lucid. It's like my first lucid unlocked a part in my brain and I'm given free access to it now. Although my lucid's averages to once per month but it's pretty good for me.

1st week of school, Going good so far.

**Carrot** · 04-06-2013 10:57 AM

I came across a picture online.

I wonder the validity of the statement.

**sefalik** · 04-07-2013 01:48 AM

boo, i waited too long. beer distributors are closed.

**Carrot** · 04-07-2013 02:57 PM

Beer distributors?

**SnowyCat** · 04-07-2013 03:30 PM

Are those like hot-dog distributors?

**sefalik** · 04-07-2013 09:25 PM

heh, in my state we have specific stores to sell beer. you can buy beer at a bar, but you can't walk out with it. asides from one local-ish chain grocery store that has a license to sell a few brews, only beer distributor can sell you beer (but you can't drink it there, only purchase it). hard alcohol is even more strict in that only state-owned stores can sell it (well, bars too--but again, you can't walk out with anything).

I believe we're currently in the process of changing the law to remove the state stores and allow beer/liquor to be sold under the same roof.

That's... confusing.

By the way, I'm going overseas this Friday! On my own! Without my family! I'll be meeting my friend when we transfer flights from Hong Kong to Taiwan. ^^

Nice! I've always wanted to travel with friends. Someday, right? Where are you headed?

I am so totally Jealous. You'll have a Great time. I don't know if you've been before this, but Asia is so unique that you'll remember it forever. Just remember, try every new experience that you can, and don't let nervousness hold you back.

**Lucid_boy** · 04-11-2013 01:13 AM

Have you ever been anywhere, snowycat?

**SnowyCat** · 04-11-2013 04:56 AM

I've been here and there, mostly in America though. I want to get back out to Scandinavia one of these days...

Thanks! I live in Asia though.

Congratulations on the lucid dreams, Carrot!

Enjoy Taiwan! Take some pictures for us!

**Carrot** · 04-11-2013 05:39 PM

My camera's ready!

The day my final paper was due, I picked a topic. Four hours later, I submitted 4-5 pages of unedited (I didn't even re-read anything I wrote) bullshit with some fancy sources tacked on the end. Mind you, I was supposed to have my topic approved a month ago and it was supposed to be 7-8 pages long. Also, we were required to write in first person, so just randomly added "I think..." through the paper.

I got a 93%. Like a fucking champ. No, but really this class was a joke. I didn't read a single assignment the entire year, and there are a few occasions where the teacher gave me a grade for papers I never even turned in.
