here's a thought. just crossed my mind that it's friday eve and i'm here...
when i was in high school i was so depressed by sitting alone at home friday evening/night. i couldn't concentrate on anything else but thinking how depressed i am about the situation.
now i sit at home and care about nothing.
i'm not sure which one is sadder... feeling pain or feeling nothing :\

So many people say they would rather feel pain than be numb. I don't understand that. I would choose to be numb any day. In fact, lately I have been feeling more numb than anything else and I love it - at least, compared to how I was feeling before. I would often get so upset that I couldn't focus on schoolwork, couldn't do anything, just sit and cry and be miserable. When I'm miserably numb, I can actually still sort of function, even if I don't feel wonderful inside.

But that's just me, of course. It's weird in my opinion.

Accepted at university for september, and it seems that my search for a job could lead somewhere before june finally... And now it reminds me how it drains me to deal with people at work and at school... ::(: Life is so much more simple and easy when you don't have anyone to satisfy....

I mentioned to a co worker about her accent and I asked her where she was from and she said Wisconsin, and she got offended. wtf?

hahahahaha snort

sorry - I'm used to hearing that accent, since I'm around it everyday

but it is very distinctive

Well, why can't I mention someones accent without sounding like im judging? I really wanted to know where she was from. Just why is it impolite to mention someones accent? I don't find it offensive.

no idea - maybe it was her own issue - she's probably been bugged about it before

i'm sure if you spent any time in wisconsin, plenty of people would make some wise-cracks about your lovely accent

People in my neck of the woods are convinced they don't have accents. I guess it's because we don't have a severe accent, they think we don't have one at all. I say we do, and it's called "the country bumpkin."

The American accent used in television shows and movies is modified a bit so that it is more understandable by people speaking non-American English. That helped to sell them in other countries (aka cultural imperialism).
