Do you all ever feel odd and weird? Like no one finds you interesting or fun to talk to. Maybe you're just annoying when you talk to people and so you hardly ever do. That's my problem.
Yessss and all I get from my therapist when I bring it up is
"Natania I think your depressive thinking is talking."

Yes, I feel that way too and I hardly talk to people either. Maybe its them, not us..

I think a lot of the time I just don't have much to say. I don't find interest in a lot of things people talk about :(
I'm more of a quiet person and a listener. But sometimes I do get talkative. It just depends on the subject, how I'm feeling, where I am, my comfort level, etc.

Aw, Molly :(.

I know we haven't "technically" talked before but the times we've e-chatted, I've found you to be an utterly delightful perosn to talk to (like the time I asked you some questions about cultural issues.)

You're funny, a good listener, very sweet, and always have something interesting to contribute.

If everyone else is too busy talking to realize that, just come and find me instead. :D

There was a whole part of the internet I had no idea about until google searching 'excuse me, sir' or 'pardon me, sir' in search of image which simply displayed those words and some sort of politely interruptive gesture. ._. My search, as you can see, availeth me not.

On to the main point of this post:

Excuse me, sir, but would your username happen to be a reference to Mass Effect or Final Fantasy by any chance?

Seeing ignorant Facebook status updates on my newsfeed like these make me super angry. I am receiving a master's in education because I believe everyone has a right to education and I have such a passion to make a change in students lives. Seeing this shows the ignorance of some people.

I currently work in education. People don't realize that my day does NOT end after my 9 hour shift. In fact, it continues. I'm spending money out of my own pocket for curriculum, I'm working on curriculum, I'm looking up ways on how I can help a child who is struggling WITH the said curriculum. I am loving the ones who seem to be unlovable by others, and showing that I believe in them. I'm doing work that I'm not being PAID for....and it's stressful, but it's what I want to do to be successful for my students. My life does not end when I clock out. People who post these status updates wouldn't HAVE an education if it weren't for teachers.

Sure, there are a few teachers out there that are out there that ARE lazy, who are incompetent. But, being a person who wants to see a change in young people's lives, it makes my blood boil.

You are educated because there's someone who believes in YOU, who wants to see YOU succeed. Call me lazy, call me as if I don't have a job, but that is far from the truth.

thats way off! I trained for 1st year in teachers college the amount of theory paperwork and with practicum literally I fall asleep in my text books reading at home and staying up late to finish my papers you wouldnt even get past year1 New Zealand and Australia teacher training is so loaded with paper work, legal processes like dealing with family intervention, professionalism, theres no room for "lazy teachers" they wont even let you graduate thats for sure people who make ignorant statuses like tht have no idea whats its like to be a teacher they say that about ECE because they think they watch kids and play games with kids all day. If i ever hear of someone being a teacher my head always says "person working in a stressful job" - I know how feel and that was year1 #WAYWAYOFF#

I usually don't answer for other people but I don't think she'll mind (I hope not :rolleyes:)... Anyway, she's in another country. :)
I know it was kinda an odd question but I am attending Fallas Baptist University. In my calculus class my professor always starts out with a scripture and asks us to give our views and thoughts on it and how we think it applies to life and calculus. Anyhow yesterday the verse was psalms 119:96. Coincidence....? Lol

That's what caught my curiosity and caused my to ask.

Nothing I've been on has worked for me longer than a year at a time, so I have to keep changing meds, and I definitely notice the change in my personality as I am weaned off the old medication and the new one takes effect. Not much I can do except keep to myself and try to minimize irritating people more than I normally do.
That would be really hard. I remember switching to this one about 7 year's ago and I felt physically ill weaning off the other one. Hope you feel better soon.

Your fine! I myself am not a talker and find most things people talk about boring like did you see so and so celebrity do this blah....like I don't give a crap about it, not relevant to my life....I find silence is golden......quiet people are people I like to hang out with....b/c they generally reserve their talk for more meaningful conversation/wisdom...they are like candy....sometimes you have to take a bit to unwrap it but the reward/nice person underneath their "quietness" is worth knowing if you take the time.....I like some chatty people but most I know always want to be the center of attention, have a flight of ideas and jump from topic to topic and never have a SHUT OFF VALVE! I mean you couldn't even call the plumber to stop their oral diarrhea.....lol...

Confession: One time my aunt wouldn't shut up (more like all the time, but that's another story...), so I gave her a piece of sugar-free chewing gum so she would be forced to stop talking every few seconds.

DANG (*smack*) that's (*chew*) slick!!! (*blows bubble*)

And why did Crosstweed just offer me an entire pack of gum?!

(Actually, the best strategy with me would be to offer me an entire plate full of yummy finger foods... So that I would be distracted from typing. ;))

No I actually enjoy your posts Seoul! They have thought and wisdom to them....but some people I know in my own circle just go "hey there's a bat, hey there's a butterfly....ooo look a cookie" and won't stick to one topic in a group setting like at a party I was at recently....it irritates beyond reason.....

On a side note, I will be bringing my giant plumbers clamp to my next party....attendees beware!

She's on a very strictly sugar-free diet. My dear fiance did suggest we invest in some Haribo sugar-free gummy bears, though... (Google 'Haribo sugar-free gummy bear reviews'. You won't be sorry unless you're eating gummy bears.)

xD Naw, I would never expend all my ammunition on a single target...
