Mag: :hypno: That has to be a real power nap!

Now I know that I'm going to work at a laundry this summer. :erk: And as last year when I realized that I'd got myself a job, I was thinking: "omgomg, what have I done? I don't wanna work!" and panicking a little. But I guess the money will be useful... :Smug:
 
To go or not to go, that is the question.
To go where?
To St Petersburg, Russia.
Here's the situation: every spring the students at Umeå University go to St Petersburg for a week, and usually those studying Russian at my school are offered to come with them, which is also the case this year.
I really want to go. The only problem is, none of my friends in my Russian group (there are 6 of us) are able to go, even though some of them do want to. So I'd be going alone.
On the one hand, I'd be alone with a group of people who are not only a few years older than I am, but who also already know each other quite well. Now, I'm not a very social person and I usually have a very difficult time integrating in already established groups. If I go, there's a risk my week in St petersburg will be a very lonely one indeed.
On the other hand, I'm used to being on my own, and I'm sure I'd find plenty of enjoyment in the city even if I had to be by myself, as long as I stayed away from the streets at night... And I really really want to see this city. I've always wanted to go...
I'm not sure what I'll do, but at the moment I'm leaning towards going. I might change my mind later though. *sigh*
 
@nl: here's one vote for going. if it really turns out to be hell, it's just one week. but chances are, even if you don't fit in with the other people, you'll have a very relaxing week on your own in a beautiful city. you're a budding writer like me, so i think you can also appreciate things called creativity enhancers, and i'm positive such a trip would be one.
 
@NL: Go for it! A great opportunity like that surely shouldn't be missed. Just be friendly and hopefully they'll include you in their conversations. Close circles are shite to break into, which is why if I'm in one, I always make an effort to welcome someone new. And if they seem too arrogant, screw them. Enjoy your trip and make the most of it with one person you know you can rely on -- you! :D
 
^^ What they said. :grin:


NF: I've just got some information about my final year at uni, which would begin in the autumn. Quite frankly, it all looks so shockingly tough. There's no way that, if my current state of mind drags on during this time, I'll be able to do it. This is slightly worrying. Of course things might change by then, but I can't see that happening anymore... hmm. Much to ponder. On an unrelated note, I really can't stand it when a muscle in my leg starts twitching uncontrollably. :mad:
 
@rusty: an idea: maybe your current state of mind can be helped by the very fact that next year is going to be so darn tough? just don't necessarily see it the other way around: it could be that dedication to some hard work at hand can take your mind off more troubling, and less likely to be solved by simple force of will, issues.
 
@rahvin & caelestia: yeah I'm thinking you're right, so I'll probably end up going :) and if they hate me - who cares? :grin: I'm not a scared little 15-year-old anymore

@Sunjammer.. i hope it turns out ok for you, i just recently had a similar scan, and i know what the waiting is like.. especially when the paranoia kicks in, but hang in there, and i wish you luck.
Thank you very much. I'm not so much paranoid as I am.. well.. disappointed. Four (and counting) weeks from first diagnosis and I still haven't gotten rid of the bloody thing. Medicare is dead slow, if you catch my drift...

By the way, what was your scan about?
 
@Caelestia: Hey, no problem. People miss posts on a daily basis I'm sure. I know I do... And yes, things are rather well. It'd be splendid, had I gotten rid of the stone already, but who am I to complain?
 
Ah, I'm missing a show because my mom is making up bullshit. My friend's band is a satanic nazi skinhead band, so I can't go and this explains a lot about me. I don't usually listen to hardcore bands, but it's a local show and I would like to go... according to her she found "absolute die hard evidence" on their own website of this... which most likely came from the biography page about their vocalist (A black kid). It fucking pisses me off that she can come up with such bullshit then hang up on me when I try to ask a simple question. Of course, one of my friends who i've known fora long time (7 years or so) is probably another one of these skinhead nazis, along with his mom who lets him go to these shows, since you know most jews are.

I fucking hate this.

It didn't work as a power nap :/

:lol: Don't be lazy, man!


NL: Go

..you'll regret not doing so afterwards.
 
nf: positively intending to do something. nevermind that this will probably result in spending too much on clothes, books and records this afternoon, all the while trying to silence amy without killing her.
