But it's my fault, it's my fault for going out to buy bread when a terrorist attack has happened just this morning. It's my fault. I should know better. I should know by now that you can't go out in my little tiny town ruled by radicals when the 90% of the place knows what you're learning and your acquaintances think it's great to accuse you of things when you have nothing to do with them. But it's my fault, OK? Because this time I sort of begin it. Radicals have absolutely no sense of humor.

And shouldn't I be angry? Because it's my teacher the one who has to knelt in front of his car to know if there is any bomb under it.

By the way, it's official, ETA hates me. They put a bomb when I must go to the capital the next week. Yeah, a Basque in Madrid, sooo funny... And my parents are out, in Valencia. It's so great when you hear about a terrorist attack outside the Basque Country, everybody looks at you as if you are a kind of parasite :roll:

That's really awful, Escriba, makes me mad and sad at the same time. I am happy you have the support of your family and friends.

Insomnia sucks. It's 2:25am here and I'm tired as hell but can't sleep. I feel your pain. That hair thing sounds nasty, perhaps you oughta go see someone about that.


My Whine:

The damned online check-in thing for Malaysian Airlines won't let me f***ing check-in. It gives me some bullshit error and then tells me to go away. How helpful. All the contact phones are either office hours only or Malaysia only, so thats funny too. :bitch: :explode: :evil:



How damned hard is it to test a system when BEFORE you roll it out? It's one of the first things you're taught in geekclass. Always always ALWAYS *ALWAYS* test your code. To death. With a hammer. I manage it. We here at Tris managed it, so why can't they? Bastards.

Insomnia and hair falling out both sound like they could be related to the hormones you're taking. If you can't call the doctor for some help about this over the weekend, maybe you should just stop them until you can talk to him/her. At least check the warnings in the drug facts sheet the pharmacy probably gave you.

Whine: gah my friends are such flakes. :evil: Like we're *supposed* to shoot a little film thingy, well we were supposed to like for weeks now but it keeps getting delayed due to work etc, but like come on it's a really simple shoot shouldn't take more than a few minutes and after that it's all my job with editing etc, we ALL work I work too it's not just them, and they know we need the daylight and if they wait too long after work the daylight's gone and we can't do anything. And then the next day it's the same thing etc etc. They keep saying like how we should spoof this and we should spoof that, but of course they never come up with actual ideas and even when I already write something and it's all ready to shoot they just flake around. I mean like they get all psyched about what we SHOULD do, but in the end we can't actually DO anything just sitting around in our PJs until it's too frelling late. Grrrr :evil:

And like one of them actually wanna be an actress (the other one's just in it for the fun) and like is that how she'd be if it were like a real production with crew and schedule and everything. Like we can't even make a schedule to work by because they just keep flaking around all the time. But really what if it were a real production and not just a bunch of friends huh. Like once I had to get up at 3am every day (night :? ) to be able to make it to set on time in busses etc. What would she do cuz productions can't adjust themselves to her schedule or lack thereof. I guess that's why she never actually work as an actress. I mean like she has everything going for her, she looks like a model, she has like tons of connections, she takes acting classes, she keeps getting new headshots, well and I'm pretty sure she has some talent too. But where's the motivation for crying out loud. You wanna be an actress get off your ass and do something!! :roll: :wtf: :faint: :explode:

Like I totally could have shot this little thingy already if I just posted a casting notice on Craigslist or something, it's really simple it doesn't even have lines. But they're my friends and I wanna shoot it with them, and they wanna do it too but they just keep flaking on me :( :evil: and then I feel like the bad guy every time I ask them when they wanna shoot it and it makes me feel like I'm a pain in their lazy bums. :(

Ooooh sounds like when I was 16 in English doing ALL the work while my "partner" comes in hungover every class. Sorry that your friends don't respect your work ethic or your dreams.

Well I stopped taking the stupid hormones, pain is back but I'm not a total psycho anymore. I just really hate that I have to choose which is worse. :-x :-x

Well the thing is it's not just my dream it's their dream too at least one of them, I just don't get how they can get all hyped about the ideas we come up with but when the time comes to execute they're all like blah... too tired, too hungry, too whatever I mean like come on, we all work here, we all hate this place, we're all tired and burned out it's not just them, why am I the only one who's organized about anything. Like I know they wanna do it too and they're excited and everything but just wanting to do it won't get it done. And really they have like the easiest job ever like I said it's a really simple shoot, not even anything complicated yet they don't really have much to do, I do most of the work because I'm gonna be the camera and then I do all the editing and everything but you don't see me complaining "well maybe later/whenever I'm too tired" etc etc. Because I wanna get this thing done.

And looks like it's not gonna happen today either, like we "scheduled" for yesterday after work then they were "too tired" oh come on you were sitting in an office in front of the computer all day, I was the one running around doing all the physical work and I finished at the same time how come I'm not "too tired" or whatever. So we "rescheduled" for this morning since we're off (it's like my only day off in the week) but they of course took their sweet time to get up, and get ready etc, then they had some "quick errands" that really were quick, but then they just came back and now they're just lazing around, Vader (the one who wanna be an actress) said she's "just gonna walk up the street to submit a job application" and that "up the street" place is where they went to their "quick errands" before they came back WTF, seriously and she said that like 2 hours ago since then she's just been "getting ready" which is mostly just chit-chatting with her BFF, who doesn't seem like she's gonna wanna shoot today either because she just went to bed and she's lying down being lazy. And soon Vader has to go to her acting class and T has to start working in the office, oh and the daylight of course has to go somewhere else on the planet, and she still didn't go to submit her application (by that time the place would probably be closed anyway :roll: )

OMG they're so flaky and disorganized that it's crazy. And people call ME dysfunctional. At least I'm TRYING (and failing :( ) but they don't even move their flaky asses.

Like what's gonna happen when we have to do the more complicated film thingies. I already have one that's almost finished and it's gonna be longer and the filming is gonna be more complicated and especially the editing but of course that's my job so I don't care, but for that film we're gonna need more cast and we're gonna need a schedule because I seriously doubt other people would wanna put up with their flakiness, now how in all hells would that ever work. I even gave them the small roles in that one not like major roles so they won't have too much shooting time seeing how it's "such a bother" or whatever. But really how would we ever get something done. Like we all keep thinking about the final products and how awesome they would come out, but dude there's no final products without work duh, we don't have like replicators or whatever. It took me months to make SouthTrek for example and I literally did 99.9% of the work made over 3,000 frames and all the editing and syncronizing the audio etc, but getting them to finally record their voices was such a pain in the ass :roll: :faint:

And like just now they were talking about how they hate every second here but they should try to get excited about their lives etc, (well you know the usual self help mumbo jumbo) how instead of lazing around they could be doing stuff they like OMG would you listen to yourself and actually get off your lazy bums instead of just talking about it for hours. Seriously. :explode: :faint:

I wish! Accupuncture and massage helped me a lot, but medicade doesn't cover either. Added to that I only get a little on SSI and my parents have to suppliment my income and pay bills. I just have to wait.

T'Poptarts You just have to remember that people are finicky creatures. Sometimes they simply make you crazy.

I look forward to a day when somebody might actually do a reasonable study of this and decide that, "Hmm. A little regular therapeutic massage or acupuncture could prevent the need for thousands of dollars of life-threatening surgery and medication. Maybe this works out cheaper and safer in the long run...."

However, designing such a study would probably be a nightmare. There are so many variables.

I still think it ought to be studied.

Two words Universal Health care, Britan and Canada does it and for the most part I haven't seen any Stalins rise up. But honestly, complaining about it does NOTHING.
