Happy Birthday Cya!!!

Did anybody else see that Tim Burton poster? I was actually kind of bummed when it was revealed to just be an April Fool’s joke…

No, what poster?

I have a meeting in about a half an hour and then get to eat today Very Happy

This poster.

Mary Poppins isn’t one of my favorite Disney films, but I would have loved to see what spin Tim Burton would have put on it, as well as how Helena Bonham Carter would have looked as Mary…

THAT WOULDVE BEEN AWESOME

by Stella Luce 333 Tue Apr 08, 2014 7:52 am

The overall reaction was mostly positive…Maybe that’ll convince Tim Burton & Disney to make it happen?

I'm currently watching "How to Die in Oregon." It's rather depressing and interesting.

by Stella Luce 333 Wed Apr 09, 2014 8:50 am

With a title like that, I wouldn’t think it would be all that happy of a show, lol…

I'm not talking to myself.
I'm not going to keep talking to myself.
Sad

It's a documentary about how Oregon has the assisted medication that people with deadly illnesses can take to kill themselves peacefully if they so wish rather than suffering. It shows actual people taking it and going into a coma. Following the coma is the death.

What are you talking about, cya>

I'm one of those people who's like, "Depression is not logical or rational," whenever I'm fine. And when I get depressed I'm like, "WHY AM I DEPRESSED IT'S NOT RATIONAL [IT]'S JUST A STUPID [whatever it is]." And then I get upset at myself for being depressed and it just spirals downward from there, so I go and listen to depressingly and heartbreakingly beautiful music like "Adagio for Strings" by Samuel Barber or "Watchman, Tell Us of the Night" by Mark Camphouse or "Fantasy on a Japanese Folk Tune" by Samuel Hazo. Then I either switch gears to something a little more uplifting or get all reverent and broody, it depends.
Music has this huge capacity to help me experience emotion and then change my mood to the better.

by Stella Luce 333 Thu Apr 10, 2014 7:59 am

I think that’s the true power of music…

When I try to talk to someone and they don't respond for a while and you go and look at your conversations only to find that you've literally been talking to yourself, it's incredibly disheartening.
But I was worrying a bit too much, he just literally had no cell reception for days. Razz

I am ready to get more work done tonight!

by cya6 Mon May 12, 2014 2:17 pm

sad to see so little action on here

by Stella Luce 333 Tue May 13, 2014 8:27 am

I guess everybody’s been over on the Random Facts thread…but I’m sure things will pick up soon!

by Heart of Lyoko Wed May 14, 2014 3:39 am

Hi guys, I'm back again!
I'm much better than I was before. Way happier and confident, as well as self-assured.
It's been a massive change from the beginning of this year, and I hope I stay this way!

Today was rather upsetting though, due to a rather out of hand 'discussion' on homosexuality. The fact that the 'friend' I was 'discussing' with is queerphobic makes it way worse.

(Psst does anyone watch Orphan Black?)

by cya6 Wed May 14, 2014 7:29 am

AGH! I'm so happy to hear you're feeling better! Like actually really happy for you!! ^_^
I hate intolerant people. I gotta deal with that to a slight extent with my family, which is why no way would I tell them that I don't exactly identify as straight XD

I don't. It looks good, what's it about?

by Stella Luce 333 Wed May 14, 2014 9:00 am

I’m so glad you’re feeling better!!!

Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, even if that opinion is intolerant. The only thing you can do is be tolerant, & hopefully, one day, the voices of tolerance & acceptance will be louder than those that hate & judge…

by cya6 Wed May 14, 2014 9:53 am

Man, Stella, I don't want to deal with my parents making fun of and assuming my sexuality is a crazy joke. I'm f*cking bisexual, it's not even that complicated

by eseiprahs Wed May 14, 2014 11:47 pm

Hello! I was gone for a few days. How has everyone been?

I’m not saying that you have to tell them anything if you don’t want to! I’m just saying you don’t have control over anybody’s thoughts or actions other than your own…

Then again, I’m a bit of a push over who has a very bad habit of trying to make everybody else happy…

by eseiprahs Sat May 17, 2014 12:18 pm

I absolutely hate when my sister acts like a five-year-old...and she is in her 20s.

by Stella Luce 333 Mon May 19, 2014 7:56 am

Age is really nothing but a number…Is everything ok?

by **Snickie** Mon May 19, 2014 8:20 pm

So classes and finals were over two weeks ago today. Then on Wednesday night I did some recording for an audition for a summer music camp, and the very next morning my mom and I made a twelve-hour drive to go see her younger brother, who has cancer and has 6-12 months to live, and her parents, who are taking care of him. We were there until last Tuesday, which is when we drove back. I was never close to my uncle, but it's hard and weird seeing him with oxygen all the time and hurting too much to go anywhere that isn't his recliner for any extended period of time. The stay was stressful. The drive both ways was stressful even though we had good traffic the whole time... twelve straight hours in a car is just too much.

In the meantime, my mom has been dealing with a whole bunch of stress at work and worrying over whether or not she would have a job. 16 May was when she found out that she would still have a job, so she's happy about that, but one of our close friends might lose hers.

That night we had to deal with the idea that our eldest cat didn't have long left, and we tried on Saturday to get a vet to come out to put her to sleep, but she couldn't get to us and so she came to us and did it yesterday. We buried her in the backyard and cried and got sinus headaches from crying so much. It was hard but she was ancient and she could barely walk and she hardly ate and she was just ready to go.

So the past month has been stressful. I'm hoping things calm down soon.

We're already looking at getting another cat. lol

by eseiprahs Mon May 19, 2014 9:44 pm

Everything is fine, Stella. Thanks!

I hope things calm down too, Snicks! Once stressful times end, it's like a breath of fresh air though.
