So I now have classes that I can't skip on saturdays. Which has completely killed any chance of me going home this semester except for Easter (and even then they might go full retard and make us come just for that one day).

Depression intensifies. Cause still not known. I don't even know what to type. Genders are annoying. I drank some hot chocolate and it burned my tongue. I'm going to go play video games and cry now.

One part of depression is that there's always a cause--reflecting back usually always finds it; problem is how, and what.
At times, its the environment or a consistency within the environment (ie Pollution or garbage) which is of value to the person, but in a...lesser condition than is able, and it affects the person too, in general (ie harsh attitude from others you care about).
A period of lucidity is needed to be able to organize yourself and communicate (Lucid = a state of stability).

Also wishing you well, Captain Mc! I hope whatever is nudging you will...not do any permanent harm there.

I think there's just still too much stigma on someone's gender identity.

Someone? Or the concept? o_O
The usual thing is to respect personal decisions in that context, and perhaps guide them along the way if you feel what you say is alright, in the situation. In regards to that concept...I think its the rigidity of beliefs revolving around it for you, yourself?
As in, what I recall is the 1980's definition of feminine or masculine...it was very rigid in how it limited the idea. It had a point--though very...diluted(?) by how limiting it was.

Depending on what you mean by cause I'd argue whether that's actually true. I know from my own life most of the things that used to upset me turned out to not really be problems, the problem was more in how I thought and felt about them in my own head. Some things really were problems, but they're a lot easier to deal with once you clear the nonsense issues away.

Ahahah, nobody in particularly. The concept itself. There's obviously massive differences between how society sees it, how I see it and how this board sees it.
I think there's just such a variety of people that nobody will ever really agree on gender politics- we might slide left or right over time, but people will still dress how they want to dress and act how they want to act. I guess the real goal then is getting to a point where nobody is afraid to be however they want- but don't encroach on other people to do this.

Man, this olympiad stuff is getting in the way of everything else and causing me to panic and subsequently just not do anything x_x

Ikea was sold out of the bed I wanted that was on display in the showroom.
Was a good price, too. Guess I'll have to go back there when they restock.

What kind of Olympiad? I'm an Olympian, maybe I can help. (After I move some lightning bolts for tomorrow's shipment.)

_{Is it sciiiience olympiad?}

[Xantalos]

Man, I really should be doing this assignment I'm staying up so late for instead of staying up late doing nothing related to it like typing this post. I don't think I'll be able to finish it in time at this rate.
Dang.

It's the second round of the maths olympiad (in Belgium) that I decided not to go to. I just didn't really want to. I'm also very much behind on my training for the informatics olympiad, though >.>

Well, last night I got into another argument with family, and got irritated to the point where I could feel the blood pulsing through my head, hands, and chest, and my eyes couldn't focus anymore.
It feel like I was going to literally explode, as cliche as that feels to say.
It's hard for me to focus on anything right now.

I've been out of one class for two and a half weeks due to a combination of apocalyptic weather and a university affiliation. This class is a woodworking class. I hate woodworking, but more importantly I can only get wood to work with during class time. All actual woodworking is done out of class. Other people may have gotten their wood, but I didn't. The current project was theoretically due at the end of this week. I'm hoping it will be re-organized, because there's no way I could do it in this time remaining and it's 40% of my grade. But my instructor is also a total jackass and openly despises both people in my major and people who are in university programs that take away from Holy Woodworking. This isn't even supposed to be in my major, it's just a filler because the program is so rare.

And I have the first resumption of this class tomorrow morning. Well, maybe it'll work out. Maybe.

It's obviously more detailed than that.
For instance, that is a plank.

The first thing wrong with your technique that comes to mind is not using a power saw.

As someone who generally builds their own bookshelves, there are few common woodworking situations where a power saw would be less efficient.

If by primary school he means an age range of about 5-11, then of course they a aren't going to be using power saws.

Natural selection. If you can't use power tools, you don't deserve to survive primary school.

I am aware of that. I've been through something pretty similar.


Coughing hasn't gone away, even after about a week. Chest and throat stiff and raw.
