The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
And suddenly tens of thousands of teenagers around the planet awake as if form a coma wondering what happened to the last 3 months of their lives... only to find a complete record in 140 character segments directly in front of them.
I'm moving to beautiful upstate New York and living in an apartment right on a lake.
I have a 50% scholarship to the school I'm winding up going to, saving 20k a year.
My father is loaning me the money at 5%, far under what I would have had otherwise.
I'll be getting a new laptop to replace my five year-old one, which still works.
And, uh.
Everyone here?
Sucks moving up to a state I have not a single person I know in, though, outside of here.
Puck: I hop on a train tomorrow at 9 AM for NY. No. Not hangin' with my peeps.
Upstate isn't too far from Boston, depending on where you end up, so maybe you can visit some time. I work with some dudes from upstate, and I generally refer to it alternatively as "Third World New York," "Decaying Post-Industrial Hellscape" and "Thunderdome". Wherever you move, check the internet for the state of the ground water, since every single industrial concern that went under in Upstate did their even best to poison the earth for generations when in their death throes.
Still, if you're in a college town, you'll probably have a relatively easier time meeting people. I've found Northeasterners a little bit clannish and standoffish, since no one seems to leave the place of their birth and pretty much have that whole "making friends" thing wrapped up for life at age 8.
How am I supposed to tweet that twitter is tweeting that it's down for maintenance?
I tend to bypass that particular problem by not tweeting, but rather mentioning it on FriendFeed. Pretty much the same people that would see it on Twitter would see it on FriendFeed.
:whistle: Don't you love her madly,
Wanna be her daddy
Don't you love her face
Don't you love her as she's walkin' out the door
Like she did one thousand times before
:whistle:
Now I'm going to dream of mouthnipples all night. This won't be pleasent.

Goddammit, I want to check out today's Phalla narration before I go to bed, but VisibleHowl is taking fucking forever. I should've been in bed half an hour ago. ><
Again, my mental state is great. Doesn't even phase me at this point.
But physically -- I don't know. I've never seemed to be able to control the butterflies or the heartburn or the whatever.
Have you tried acid blockers? Cimetidine is pretty much awesome.
Well, that's minor and doesn't bother me.
When I'm under heavy stress, my body does some annoying shit like I'll just straight up vomit sometimes.
First some basic advice I bet you wont listen to:
Deep breathing exercises. Breath deeply and calmly whenever you feel stressed. Just treat it like a game, make your body do it. Try to make it a habit to do it everytime you feel even slightly stressed.
I used to get nervous breakdowns under heavy stress, I'd just start crying and couldn't stop or move. Anything made me worse. I hated it, because I don't normally show emotions and bottle them up, and then I'd just completely lose control when things got too much because I didn't handle the stress right.
A combination of cognitive behavioural therapy to pinpoint what was triggering my anxiety and deep breathing and centering to try and calm myself let me go through a whole semester with only one tiny anxiety "fit" that I got over myself within a few minutes. It's been a massive improvement to my whole life and my outlook on it in general.

They're wasted on most everyone. I could have learned to be a lawyer in half the time stupid law school takes up.
Wasn't it Lupus one time just to fuck with us? Anyone? Lupus?

I don't know about you, but somehow, this doesn't surprise me.

FUCK YOU JESUS CHRIST I'M NOT GOING TO SLEEP TONIGHT
That's my rule for my first year. I ain't goin' anywhere.
Have you tried acid blockers? Cimetidine is pretty much awesome.
What the god damn fuck is this?
Did you skip over that bit about the ground water and post-apocalyptic hellscape thing?
Actually, which school are you going to?

Pretty sure I've seen that in a comic book back in the 80s or 90s.
It's not like I'm sleeping either.

Don't you love her madly,
Wanna be her daddy
Don't you love her face
Don't you love her as she's walkin' out the door

If I twittered it would be about the D&D game.
I would post Zen's PMs about it.
And by PMs I mean PMSings.
Now I'm going to dream of mouthnipples all night. This won't be pleasent.
She could have vagina dentata nipples.

Think about how she'll feed a baby! Like a bird!
Now I will not sleep.
