I don't really get emotional from books and I haven't seen the movie.

I thought it ended nicely, Lennie was pretty much done for anyway since they would've beat him to near death. Mercy kill.

No
That was fucking sad
I nearly cried in class when we read that bit of the book at school.
 
Re: today you did things noteworthy

I think I might have been a little sad if I was emotionally attached to the characters. But that wasn't the case for me, I didn't care for any of them (That includes Lennie). It was a pretty short book so I guess it's no surprise it didn't spark any emotions from me. Usually I care a little but there was just nothing.
 
Re: today you did things noteworthy

Oh yeah, I remember reading that book back in high school. From memory, I was kinda sad about what happened to Lennie but I felt worse for the puppies.

Also, I am now 100% dead from Uni. No chance of a Distinction or High Distinction project, just lots of soft weeping. I hope they still mark my portfolio even though I don't have all of my things done. I just really hope I pass, I can't do this for a whole other year.

I also found out a friend has some pretty severe depression and I mentioned a panic attack I'd had earlier in the year and he kinda told me to go to a doctor. I guess it is too late for this semester but I should go check over the holidays see if I can get medication or something.

Sorry I just rambled but I have a lot on my mind. ;_:

just don't do what i did

i freaked out at every panic attack i had, and now i'm a hypochondriac and allergic to meat

panic attacks are normal things, they happen to everyone, and i don't want anyone to go through what i'm going through

if you do get panic attacks, try to think of something happy, or play a game, something to take your mind off the current situation you're in, if you're in one

hopefully in a month or so, you'll stop having panic attacks

i've tried everything to get better, but i'm afraid that there might be nothing i can do at this point

but it's not too late for you, save yourself, do amazing things, just don't you do what i have done

Thanks for the concern. This was back in around June and I haven't had an episode like that since (or prior) so I'm hoping it was just a bit of a one-off incident. It was basically after about 30hr without sleep, lots of caffeine, stress and constantly correlating it with my friend's assault which happened around that time of the last semester.

Though I have felt exceedingly anxious and, I dunno, just sad in general over the past year, which kinda sucks because I used to be really optimistic about life and stuff.

I dunno. Mental heath is a funny thing. I can't imagine what it must feel like to live like this for years. It's so hard and you only get one shot at life and it seems so incredibly unfair and tragic that your mind, the thing that basically makes you unique, puts you through that kind of torture.

But again, thanks for the concern. I hope you get better soon too. We only get one chance at this funny life thing so let's try and make the most of it, as hard as it is.
 
Re: today you did things noteworthy

ironically my anxiety is caused by the fear of death :P

but yeah, I can feel myself getting better day by day, but i think I'm gonna have to go vegetarian now, because I simply can't eat meat without throwing up or something

well that's life, best get through it as well as I can

You've probably been asked this a billion times but have you tried different kinds and gotten the same result? By that I mean, like, red meat, poultry, fish, etc? If you're scared of getting sick then obviously don't bother but it would be useful to help determine what's making you ill. Did you like meat when you were younger?

I know what you mean. I used to be like that until I saw a documentary about people who had near-death experiences who were saying that dying was actually the most incredible feeling they ever had and none of them are afraid of it anymore (and this included, like, hospitalised children who were like, "Dying's fun!") I guess it just calmed me to the idea of having one great moment before just not existing any more. Too bad I didn't catch the name of the programme.

Though for me, the scariest things about dying are a) leaving my loved ones behind and b) not having made an impact on the world. Like, I don't want to die and have it all be for nothing, y'know, and I don't want to have my family and friends get all upset because something inevitable happened to me.

It was a great movie though.

I used ChromeOS for the first time today, at school, and tried to set IE as the default browser.
