I'm glad things are going well for you too

And I'll say Merry Christmas early cause I probably wont be on, on the day lol.

Sounds like you have been pretty busy as well, my friend! I often have trouble understanding thick accents as well, but for me I have a better time understanding southern accents as I came from the south haha. I usually have a harder time understanding the broken english of the foreign exchange students that visit from China, Japan, and Korea and that is a large part because they don't fully speak english and often just point at the things they want haha. I actually had a customer that wanted tomatoes but didn't know the word so just said 'red' instead. That was an interesting order.

Then Merry Christmas to you as well!  Hope you have a wonderful time with loved ones and friends!

Yeah, been very busy.  Remodeling the house to go along with things while killing my back in the process lol!  Since it's winter I'm doing half and half stuff right now while catching a few other things up.  Those accents...I just couldn't do it and when I asked for help from my professors they just laughed at me.  I deeply hated to make the decision to quit MT but when they keep flunking you just because you go by the book and not their way, there is only so much one can handle.  From them flunking me a lot there was no way I could rebound and graduate.

Here in this area we have a lot of mixed country accents and all that.  Mine...can vary since while listening to someone I can pick up on their accent quite fast.  Dunno how that works out in my mind but it does lol...

I hope you have a lovely holiday a well ^_^

I can understand the professors only looking for their way of teaching, and it irritates me like crazy. I have had that conversation with a lot of my friends and they all agree that classes are not really by the book, they are by what the teacher wants and you have to forget what you have learned from anyone else and give that specific teacher what THEY want. And its ridiculous. I am struggling through that at the moment but hey, I got one A in the quarter I just completed at uni, so thats cool. I was really aiming for two but my final for Asian American Lit took me down by five percent and it knocked me from a 94 to a 89.

Tis life, my friend.

I have a weird accent myself, kind of. When I get tired or talk to fast I pick up on my southern roots pretty heavily, but mostly I think I have a california/washington accent from moving around so much.

To me, that's not teaching anyone ANYTHING important!  I highly feel the colleges need to crack down on such things but sadly they don't enforce those actions.  One friend that I speak to has the most horrible professor that only goes by what he does and gives almost a blind eye to those that he likes...I don't like professors like that at all, never did.  Had them in college and then recently while studying MT...not fond of those types of 'teachers' if one wants to call them that.  Least you still retained an A in something so it's still a victory!

Such is life most definitely lol!

It was good!  Did absolutely nothing as it was just another day for me lol.  I'm currently getting things organized around so I can finish remodeling my bedroom so I can have this place 100% again, let alone have my workbench open so I can start doing my stuff.  Been redoing my old art here and there so I can get it posted up whenever I get it completed.  Thing is, I'm still unhappy of how my brushes color in Adobe Photoshop.  Been keeping my eye on that Adobe Photoshop CC as I've tried the trial and it was completely awesome!  ...just can't afford it right now LOL!

Yeah for sure, it was a very unique situation with that teacher. We were actually given a sub teacher for a few days before it was decided the rest of the class would be done online so the original teacher could continue to go to necessary doctor visits and rest like he needed too. I still got a B in that class though so that was fine. I will admit though, that I am never very happy with B's. I tried really hard to get more A's this last quarter and got 1/3 which was able to bring my gpa up a bit, so that was good. I really really want to get all A's or at least like 2/3 and just keep improving, but I suppose I shall just see how it goes.

I'm glad it was good I actually went home for three weeks and just got back to my apartment two days ago. Most of my visit home though was spent lying flat on the floor or in bed because I have lower back problems, sciatic nerve pinches and all that and it was really really bad this last visit. I tried to get in to see a chiropractor but none were accepting new patients and the wait-lists were around 7 months, so I just went and saw my own chiropractor here in my town yesterday. And damn, my whole body was out of whack. He adjusted both of my shoulders, my neck, my upper and lower back, and my hips. My right shoulder was so bad though, after he readjusted and put it back into place my arm was sore all the way into my chest and down into my ribs. That was not fun.

But I am feeling better today! So that is always a good sign. I might go back in another week though and just make sure everything is still in place.

Least you have your nose stuck in the books!  I tried to strive for the same thing but...yeah, you know the story on it LOL!  Btw, how many years left until you graduate?

Ah yeah, I can relate to the back pain though mine is from lifting severe heavy objects when I was younger let alone the weight gain that I obtained.  I am happy to say I've lost over 150lbs so far and still shedding it which makes my back happy.  Trying to get back into top shape like how I was in high school as it'll take me a bit to get back down into my 3X clothes

Sounds like you were hit by a truck to be out of whack that badly o.O


It's always best to go back in a week's time to see if things are realigning back into place and to see on what else needs to be done!

Yeah, I do try to be studious. I just read a book for fun though, Catching Fire. A friend let me borrow it and I promised I would read it over break and I just finished it today. Read 250 pages to get it done cause yesterday I read 100 and a week ago I read 45. But it had to be done, so now I can give it back. In order to graduate I really only need two more quarters, but I am planning on adding on a religious studies major as well so maybe another year added on to this year.

Losing weight and getting healthy is definitely a good thing. And you have been doing great if you have already lost 150! That's so great! In the past two years I have lost 50 pounds and I'm happy about it. To be at my age/height healthy weight I have to lose 50 more, but I've got time lol. My back just doesn't seem to care whether I have lost weight or not, it just always want to hurt. The soreness was so so bad last night. I didn't even move when I went to bed. Like usually, I am a constant mover and tend to lie on my sides, but last night i was flat on my back with a heating pad up my spine and didn't move. It sure felt like I was hit by a truck or something. I will definitely go back to the chiropractor too cause I think my ankle got messed up in it all as well, like overcompensating for my hips being out. So I have it wrapped with an ace bandage at the moment, but if it is out too i need it to be put back.

I used to read story books and all that, mysteries and even some romance novels, but always read the joke books like Garfield lol!

Oh it's not easy as I've ballooned up and down these past couple of years but right now I'm at my lowest of losing any kind of weight ever!  Course not only do I wanna get healthy again but when it comes to time for me to restore some vehicles of mine I'll need to lose a lot more weight if I want to fit behind those steering wheels due to how they made the cars back in the day lol!  If your ankle is like that then I agree as it's overcompensating for things being out of whack.  My ankles do that from time to time though I just have bad ankles altogether, but still the fact about the overcompensating I can relate to your words lol.

Ya know, too bad that they don't have one of those hover things like a person see's in Back to the Future Part II where McFly's father is in it upside down to straiten it out.  With that you could pretend to be a drunk Superwoman or a Spider-Woman of some sort lol XD

I try to read novels as much as possible, I even have three bookshelves in my apartment and they are all full. I'm not gonna lie, a large majority of the books I have are romance or angsty stuff. Love me some angsty stuff haha. But I do have some good classics. I actually tried reading Anna Karinina on my kindle and got about halfway through, but I havent picked it back up.

Yeah, it is easy to kind of rise and fall with weight and stuff like that. I tend to stay pretty steady within like five to ten pounds of fluctuation. But lately I have been on the lower side of weight as well and that makes me feel better. I love old vehicles though, they look so cool and just make me think of classic movies and the roaring twenties or something haha. 

I have pretty good ankles, like never sprained or twisted them or anything, but I will be keeping my left one wrapped for the week if I can.

I often think it would be so cool if we could all just teleport or levitate and fly to where we wanted to go. It would be so much easier haha. This past Halloween though I saw a guy dressed up as Marty so that was pretty darn amusing and really cool.

We got tons of books here, main majority of them are packed though.  Once we start adding onto the house in the next year or two my mother plans on adding a decent sized room for a library.  Told her why not just make it a two story section just for books alone for what we have now and in the future...she's still trying to decide of how big of a room it should be for both floors lol!

Main majority of my vehicles are over 20 years old with the youngest being my full sized '90 Ford Bronco to my oldest a '55 Ford F100 Pickup lol!  I plan on restoring and keeping them for a type of private collection with a few that I want to turn into daily drivers by modernizing them.  The thing that I fear is whoever I end up meeting that will eventually turn into a wife might make me get rid of them...when that point comes I'll tell her it's either let me keep my stuff and I'll let you keep your stuff or make me get rid of my stuff so you can keep yours or hit the road.  Terrible thing to say but I don't believe in making someone get rid of their stuff just because they move in with you or other wise.  An ex friend of mine had a '69 Ford Galaxie XL Fastback (think it was an XL, been too long) that his wife literally made him get rid of.  He put over 8 years of restoration into with original parts, no reproduction parts, all for her to make him get rid of it or it was a divorce because she didn't like old 'junk' to be kept around...was his daily driver and was extremely good on gas!  Plus too she wanted not only the money from it but to also make room for whatever possible 'family' vehicle that she can buy.  The '69 Ford had TONS of room for carrying a baby on board but she didn't care.  Their marriage didn't last for 5 years due to her nature lol.

Yer lucky for your ankles to be good.  Course too I was one of those children working out on the farm in years past so a lot of wear and tear took it's toll.  Don't think my body liked certain things that I did so it revolts now and then lol!

Easier to levitate and cheaper on gas LOL!  Prob have to wear a type of shield on yer face so you don't get too much protein intake from the bugs or have instant drive-through takeout chicken nuggets from whatever bird that you hit

High fives are awesome!  If possible, I could high five someone all day in real life XD

I just keep accumulating more and more of them, so I have had to expand bookshelves lol. When I first started I was able to cram all my books into one bookshelf, but then i got another and then another. I love books. I can justify getting more bookcases, simply for that reason alone. Moving all the books is a pain though lol.

That sounds like a lot of good vehicles, and it sounds great that you want to make them daily drivers and restore them. Cars, if they are functioning or have lots of meaning to someone, you shouldn't have to get rid of them. And honestly, ultimatums like 'the car or me' don't really sound like good starts to a marriage in the first place. That's terrible that your friend had to get rid of his for his wife, especially since he didn't wind up staying with her.

Good ankles, but bad back lol. Trade off's, they seem a bit sketch. My dad and my sister get pinched sciatic nerves like I do too, and we all agree that it feels terrible. It is a constant pain, and my sister actually has permanent nerve damage because of it. I am a bit afraid I have some sort of nerve damage too because I still can't fully feel my toes or the outer side of my leg beneath my knee all the way to my ankle. It's a problem, but I set another appointment for the chiropractor this coming Friday.

Maybe we could all wear helmets or invent force fields, especially to keep the birds away. I don't think I'd be a fan of pigeon lol.

Maybe you could someday go to a mall or something and just ride the escalators up and down all day with a "free high fives" sign lol. It always seems to work for the free hugs guys lol.

It's kinda like my brother collecting the old National Geographic magazines.  Those suckers get HEAVY while moving'em!  It's like when we moved into this house almost 17 years ago he had all those magazines to carry downstairs.  Was no problem but holy cow did they get heavy lol!

Oh they are!  I'm very proud to get a hold of them because you really can't find them much anywhere else as we got quite a few rare cars here on the property.  I do plan on restoring them all even though it'll take me quite a few decades but they will get restored and hopefully teach my future kids to keep a hold of them and their kids after them and all that!  Yeah, it was very terrible that she gave him an ultimatum about it.  I think he told me that he found out the car went down someplace in Texas after the person he sold it to put it on ebay when it was too much power for them.  When he moved East is when I lost contact with him, dunno if he ever got another car like it or not lol.

Sounds like it's a type of hereditary thing.  Still wonder when the time comes to see if they can do any surgery for you though even that is a last resort kind of thing if all else fails.  Good to hear you got an appointment coming up as it'll do you some good!  Sure your wallet won't like it but your body will lol (attempt at humor there )

I can already get the picture of pigeon poo splatter on a person instead of chicken nuggets.  I am glad they never crossed pigeons with cows o.O

Yeah for sure, I had a box that was packed solid with just books and my dad and brother both had to carry it in for me. Now I'm sure I'll have to spread the books around so it is not all dense in one box again (or a few since my collection has grown.)

That's a really great idea, passing them on. 

Yeah, my mom has a lot of back problems too, but that is because of a different reason, not hereditary, but I do take after my dad anyways. I don't actually look anything like my mom. I'm at least four inches taller than her, have brown hair and brown eyes. She is blond with blue eyes. Like, her natural hair color is pretty similar to bleach blond. It's crazy how much I take after my dad. My sister on the other hand, looks just like my mom did when she was younger.

lol, the doctor visit will definitely do good to my body. I don't like being in this much pain for so long. The chiropractor said I have a pretty high pain tolerance, but Ithink I have reached my limit on that scale. I'm just glad that now it is concentrated to one leg rather than my whole body like it was before.

Pigeons with cows huh? I tried to come up with some clever name for that like ceons or something, but that just doesn't sound right haha.

When we were moving my dad did break down and buy a dolly cart so we can haul stuff faster.  It was wonderful :3

I hope to pass them on and also hope my future kids, whoever they may be with whoever I end up with, won't turn out to be idiots

Oh I see lol!  Me and my siblings all take after both our dad and mother combined...though my brother more over towards our dad than anything else.  Both blue eyes and brown haired parents which equaled to mainly all us siblings having brown  hair but also a feint touch of red.  All get curly hair when it gets longer lol!

A high pain tolerance I somewhat have but under my hands and especially my feet are really sensitive to pain.  I can take a lot of pain but when my back was killing me, I didn't want to do much.  Think I experienced something of what pregnant women feel with the back pain stuff...course I'm sure that I'm wrong on that lol!

Yeah, it's an old kickstand joke due to how each can splatter their mess around with ease.  Maybe Pion or Coen...Cogen....eh, just pulling straws on the last word there

Oh nice!

And yeah definitely.

Yeah, I actually take after my dad's mom quite a bit. Every time my Pawpaw see's pictures of me he says I look just like she did. My brother looks just like my dad and my sister like my mom. So I suppose my dad's genes won out on that front.

I was thinking just today that I feel at my wits end with the pain of my leg, but then i just keep getting up every morning and walking it out anyways... so I guess its whatever though it does make me more irritable. *shrugs* I had heard somewhere that the sciatic issues I have had, my sister and dad too, that it is comparable to child birth. I told that to my mom though and she said child birth is only continuous for a few hours (not lasting weeks like the sciatic pain) so its probably a fairly inaccurate claim. I think for me it just gets to me because it is such a pivotal part of the body, like the neck, the hips are essential to most all movements. Especially walking. And it is no fun to have issues walking when I need to go to classes and work and home and church and all that. But bite the bullet I suppose huh?

That's just an odd combination haha.

Sounds like a luck of the draw then lol.  I got more looks towards my mother with a feint touch of my father in my face.  Inherited her brain I think since my father was stubborn at times lol!

Hmm...have you ever gone to see your family's doctor and talk to them about taking pain meds or something that I take from over the counter called Naproxen Sodium?  It helps me out as you gotta take one in the morning and one at night.  My back is starting to act up so I might be taking one tonight all thanks to this damn office chair being broken down.  Might have to make one from scratch so that way I'll never have to worry about an office chair ever again lol!

I know of what you mean with hip pain all too well lol.  I haven't gone to church in eons.  I've always felt as long as I have a bible to read from time to time it'll suit my needs!  Even have three sitting out in the house as two are in the living room and one in the basement and all for good purpose!

Lol!  It's a reference that I've heard years and years ago while watching an old movie called The Best of Benny Hill when I first saw it in the 80's.

Sorry for the long wait for a reply again, homework was suddenly just all over the place. I've already written two papers!

My mom and my dad are stubborn, but I'm not really convinced I got that from them. To be quite honest, I have a hard time making decisions so I tend to try and get my friends to decide haha like what do you wanna do? i dont know what do you wanna do? iiiiii dont know what do yoooooouu wanna do? haha that happens a lot. I know its a problem though. A specific friend of mine keeps calling me out for not making decisions.

I usually just take ibuprofen for pain medication. I have tried Advil and Aleve before but neither helped at all. I don't think I would want to take anything stronger though, medication does weird shit to my body. Like Dramamine, the motion sickness medicine for carsickness and sea sickness and stuff, literally made me black out when I took it. That was absolutely not something I wanted to do again. And even benadryl makes me sleep for like 12 hours when I usually live off of 5-7 hours of sleep a night. Medicine is a weird thing for me. 

I try to go to church every Sunday and youth group every Thursday. I have a lot of bibles around too.

Britt, no need to apologize to me as I know you are a busy person ^_^

I'm the same way and complete way about stuff!  It's mainly when I'm building something or even doing something minor like artwork I CONSTANTLY change my thoughts about it though the building part doesn't take that long to make a decision for lol!  Some friend to call you out about that, dunno if that's a good or bad thing...

I have never tried Advil or Aleve from what I can recall, just mainly ibuprofen with the occasional Neproxim here and there.  Lately I haven't taken any since I'm losing more weight which is wonderful but sometimes when I bend over a lot then my back begins to scold and scream at me lol!  Benadryl knocks you out that long?  Are you kind allergic to it or just a low tolerance to medical drugs?

Of how your back is, do you plan on having any kids someday or haven't gotten that far yet to decide to take that kind of path?  Ya might have to get a type of back brace when that time comes.


For me I don't mind going to church but it's been too long since I last went plus I don't feel comfortable being around a giant group of people all in one place.  Don't get me wrong as there's nothing wrong about it but just begin to feel awkward with tons of people in one place.  Reason why I like to go shopping mainly early in the mornings or late at night on the weekdays...though my family likes to go on the weekends so it feels odd.  I love being around people but not that many people...family gatherings are different compared to complete strangers

Alright then. I suppose I have been told by a lot of friends that I apologize too much, but when they tell me that I kind of just want to apologize more. But I have been trying to work on not doing that.

I don't think my friend ever means it as malice when she tells me I need to make decisions or calls me out on it, but it always kind of makes me nervous that she doesn't like that aspect of my personality or something, even though somewhere in the back of my head I know she doesn't exactly think of it as a problem like that.

Yeah, benadryl can keep me out for most of a day. I think it is just a general low tolerance for medications. I have never taken very serious medications like Vicodin or anything because I have never had any serious medical procedures or anything, so I am not entirely sure if I am allergic or would react badly to those. Over the counter stuff besides iboprofen (which I have most likely built a tolerance for over the years) tends to either knock me out or make me extremely sluggish, or gives me weird as hell dreams.

I don't have plans for kids at the moment, mainly because of my age, but also largely because I have never had a boyfriend and don't see that happening as no guy has actually shown interest. Ever. But if in the future that does happen, who knows. My parents seem to think that I will be the kid to give them granbabies, but that decision was not my own and actually makes me feel more pressured to do more with my life than I am prepared to do at this moment in time. I like the idea of kids, but I just don't see the likelihood as of yet.

I don't like big groups either. A friend of mine noticed that when we shop together and there are a lot of people I tend to walk a lot closer to her in an attempt to avoid contact with other people. I also don't like people walking behind me for some reason. I like the church group that I am associated with as it is usually a small group or at least I stick to the small groups.

It's about the same for me as I don't have plans on any kids right now if I meet someone again...who's not a fake person and all that.  Though yeah I know of what you mean as since I'm getting older it feels like I'm being pressured by my mom and sister to find someone and have kids, they do the same to my brother as well and he's the eldest.  I mean, I would love to have kids with someone but it's all up to them if they want to carry the bun in the oven for 9 months lol!  I know you shouldn't feel pressured, just think of it that you can have kids when you feel ready for it when Mr. Right comes along!

Oh...I know of what you mean.  I literally hate people who I don't know behind me in public places, drives me nuts.

Yeah they do mean well, we talked it out and a bit of the tension was let out so that was good.

And yeah, I don't know why my body just doesn't react well to medicines, but at least it isn't allergic reactions. I would not be pleased if my body rejected ibuprofen (my brother is actually allergic to ibuprofen) especially when I have back problems like I do.

Perhaps in the future I will find the right guy. I will just have to wait and see.

I get nervous when they walk behind me, like, I wonder if they are irritated that I'm walking too slow or something, so I usually veer off to the side to let them pass, or walk faster.

Also, I think I might be getting sick :C

Ah, good good!

Yeah, would be a terrible thing if you were as how your back is.  That's too bad as ibuprofen helps out a lot.

Indeed!  Patience is a virtue for Mr. Right to come along.  Same on my end for Ms. Right lol!

I normally let people pass, especially when they get too close with the shopping carts.  Been rear ended one too many times along with the bottom of their cart catching the back of my shoe to give me a 'flat tire' deal...

I'm sorry to hear that, hope you get better!  I finally got over a cold, flu or whatever it was that I had after Christmas.  Thought it was Pneumonia again but not sure though I hated it lol

Yeah, for sure.

Hopefully I will have some sort of prospect for Mr Right in the near future lol. 

I try to stay out of the way as much as possible, like just pulling over to the side of the aisle and waiting for them to get what they need or going to a different aisle and waiting for the area to clear out.

I do feel better now, though I still have a bit of a cough. The 13 degree weather doesn't help though haha.

Indeed.

I know the feeling lol.

I do that a lot as well unless I'm shopping with a family member then I have to...gut it in and go with it the best as I possibly can...


13 degree weather?  Well well, heat wave compared to here as it's -5 right now lol!  Glad you are feeling better!

The weather dropped down to 7 this morning, but apparently my brother faced -9 in Chicago this week haha. 

I am glad I am feeling better too, it makes it so much easier to work on homework and the like. I took a major test, a quiz, and wrote a paper this week which I don't think I might have been able to get through if I had still been feeling as sick as I had been.

It's been in the negatives for the past couple of days now though today it got over 0 degree's lol!

Oh I see.  Least you got it all done so that's a plus, which also leads to some R&R ^_^

Least it warmed up some to where it thawed out some pipes underneath the porch area.  I...regret of not insulating underneath the porch last year as we had to wait a couple of days for it to thaw -.-

Got to the mid 50's today but now it's dropping back down.

If the weather was a book it would be highly interesting to read lol!

It snowed here this morning, but that was at six a.m. before it got sunny and melted that all away.

We once had a snow storm but then literally two hours later it was back up to 70 degrees.

Interesting indeed.

70 degree's...something that I deeply miss


Ugh...this weather we're getting is terrible.  We are known for then unpredictable winds here but good grief are they coming in spurts then going away like as if a child was playing tag with their parents in a crowded store.

Yep...just used the child reference bit.  I am so low lol

lol that reference was fine.

It has been sunny here for a few days but it is now super windy. Like, thrown into the street by an invisible source strong winds.

Hehe, aight!

We did have our unpredictable winds but they calmed down around 2 and NOW it's starting to snow with a winter storm warning in effect starting tomorrow...

I'm almost tempted to get a megaphone and yell at the sky asking it of what's it bloody problem is but it would just 'breeze' me away.


Yes...just pulled the lame joke bit lol
