Reporting to base! D-real to base!

Hey guys, I haven't been around lately, so I'm just checking it to say what's up. Hope all is well here(I bet I missed a lot).

Me, I've been a both preoccupied and stressed out lately. I have to find a new job, I broke up with my girl friend, my father's sick(and miles away), then I have all this other fuking issues, some I can't even begin to explain.. I'm a wreck. :(

I don't even have in me to write a topic(whether long or short)--something I enjoy doing, hell, I haven't been keeping up lately with the game news. I browse around when even I get that chance, but I don't catch much(and don't research as much as usual). I like to write(poetry and stuff), yet, it's been months since I wote even a verse. What ever shall I do.

I pretty much lost focus, all I've done lately is argue with some pricks on IGN boards. [edit]-- maybe 'tis' them that brought this fate upon me :unsure:


The last good thing that happened in my life lately was ED(a freaking game, that's how you know things are sour), and I'm not sure how much good that did, cause I'd like $50 now. ;)

Ah what the heck! Anyway guys, that's it for now I guess. I'm ok otherwise, I mean, I'm here right, so it's not the end of the world. Hopefully, this storm would clear up soon, and glorious rays of sunlight will pierce that ominous cloud that darkens every inch of the path before me.

If anyone have any good news to share(even if it's all about you), or want to fill me in on what's been happening around here lately, I'd appreciate it. :)

Umm.. I got an 81.1% average in my second term of grade 10. Yep.

I was going to ask about the E3 competition... But I think I'll get back to you on that later. ;)

Hopefully your life will get better. Just take up drinking beer. :D

I guess that means the E3 contest results wont be up too soon?

[GameMaster]

I hope father wind comes and blows your clouds away soon. :)

[Angrist]

:( Hope your problems will soon be solved.

And unlike the always-very-smart-Joeiss says, DON'T start drinking. :rolleyes:

Hang in there d00d.

If you want you can talk to me through PM.

I charge minimal Dblins. :unsure:

I may have been in a similar situation. I haven't had a LONG relationship (it lasted about 6 months).

But you're a good mate to me, so the offer is always open.

Good News :- Um.........I'm learning Japenese, so hopefully I will be trilingual (if that's a word). Nani? :cool:

Bad News:- I live in Sydney and due to this, I have to wait a lot longer for ED and RE to come here (ED is coming 1/9 and RE is coming 13/9).

Dreal, it's just one of those phases in life where everything miserable is concentrated in a very short period of time. The only advice I can give you is to 'try' and stay focused. Whether or not it may be inconvenient, you must leave some 'me' time for you guessed it, you. Just relax, and think things over. It may be dreadful, but all you can do for your dad is check up on him (even if he is quite a distance away), because his health is in the doctors hands.

People go in and out of jobs, maybe you will find one soon, just keep applying for new ones, and hopefully more than one will come through :D.

Maybe if you do find some time, do things that you like to do, such as writing poems, it may be an effective way to vent your emotions ;).

As for news, well... This may make you feel better, Super Mario Sunshine looks fantastic, just as you said it would be, just check out the trailors :D. Sega plan to make a mega pack, where all the classic sonic games will be included, the 'supposed' list can be found in the GCN forum.

In time, the storm will pass, and one by one, your problems will dissolve. Just don't get depressed :(

If you need to talk or something, just email me.

[fingersman]

Sorry to hear about your Dad...he's in here at home right?? or is he overseas with you???


Don't worry it'll pass......God doesn't give you a burden you can't carry. So you should pull though ok..........just don't take Joesis advice :p Or you might grow up to be one of those drunk old men at the bar that constantly complains how life stuck it to him. :p

Oh yeah good news........I got Re and WWX8 and I'm happy..as usual.

:D:D:D:D:D

Hope you get over your problems soon. But when you do have problems, just sit back and try to enjoy what you're doing. And eventually you will pull through.

I'm going to have some big trouble, which will end a year from now. But I'm trying to enjoy my summer vacation.

Find something that you love in life, and hold onto that. And don't let go. When I find myself in times of trouble (Mother Mary comes to me...heh, no jk) I always find myself clinging to the thing(s) that I absolutely love in life. You may find yourself not liking anything right now, but think of something you used to really like before 'the storm hit'. It sounds like poetry would be one of those things. Write some poetry on how you're feeling right now, and what you want to change. Or if you enjoy talking to a certain person, do that. When you can't help yourself, other people can.

Try to keep your head up through hard times. It's probably the hardest thing to do, but try your best. Things will get better. That's a guaruntee.

[D-realJos]

Thanks for the concern guys(and the light humor in between). I really appreciate that. I'm also happy for those who had good news to share.

I feel a bit better getting that off my chest(and hearing rather uplifting thoughts), eventhough nothing has changed, as far as my situation goes. What amplifies any stress I have is the fact that I think too far ahead, and kinda link many aspects together. I'll just take it one day at a time. (maybe I should be more "don't-care-ish" once and a while... that's probably not as bad as it sounds)

Thanks guys, I'll hang in there!
