Sore throat continues, unbearably painful. :( I hope it gets better by tomorrow...

best of luck. Get better :)

Ok I might need some help. What would you go if you were eating lunch and your friends decided to hide another friend stuff. Then you're the one that hides the IPod and forgets to give it back? I have a girls iPod in my schoolbag right now. What would I say when I give it back? Just be honest?

So I had a nice day until I got home to find that my brother fractured something in his hand. I'm not too sure yet what it is precisely. My mum says a broken arm, then she said hand. And my sister said fractured hand. He broke it at work using machinery he'd never used before (I don't think he was meant to be using it, but just wanted to get more work done to save time. As that's how he is). It worries me because it may actually damage his guitar playing. :scared: And he was scheduled to have a jam with a really good drummer I know in the next week or so... So I think the drummer will be disappointed. I may say horrible things about my brother, but as the case always is... He is family so I do care.
 
It was a pretty good day, found out I am going to be one of the groomsmen for my friend's wedding and pretty much hanged out with them all day.
 
Sorry to hear of your bro. Hope it's not too bad.

My day was going great until I recieved a call from my #1 client. Can't say the name, as I'm binded by contract when dealing with the following information.

Their accountants apparently threw up a red flag realizing they have blown the budget through the roof in the second quarter, thus throwing the CEO/COO into a mass panic. And what's the first thing to go? Third party contractors like myself.

I have 280 employees currently on the books, which starting Monday must all be notified of a company wide layoff. So, today was no fun, Monday will be hell.
 
Woke up about half an hour ago, still feeling sick since yesterday... Stomach hurts like 🤬 and having to skip class again. First year of college and already missed two days of classes in a row on my third week. Ugh... :ouch:
 
I hope you get well soon. Sore throat is the worst. :(

Get well soon

best of luck. Get better :)

Thanks for the kind words guys, the sore throat is gone finally. Now it's just some temperature, coughing and sneezing, I guess I'll be okay again by next week. Thanks a lot again! :)

I'd just be honest... It's pretty likely she'll be upset, but you just have to bear with that. If you apologize and explain enough, it'll settle again soon, I'm sure.

Get well soon! Hope you'll be able to catch up quickly as soon as you're back.

My day, apart from being sick, was pretty okay. Despite the fact that I wasn't feeling well I had a lot of fun at school with my friends. Also, it must be something that happens every Friday, but again I made the girl I like smile frequently, even laugh about a joke of mine once. My jokes suck. Just so you know. :lol:
 
Damn, lots of sick people in here lately. I hope you all start feeling well soon :)

Highlight of my day was what happened when I was driving home. I was on the freeway moving slowly in traffic and I suddenly noticed an older lady in a Cadillac (figures) trying to use the off-ramp as an on-ramp. I then noticed the cop that sped around her and stood on the brake pedal to get her to finally stop about 10 feet off to my right.

Needless to say it was a fun 5 seconds of my life and for a second I seriously thought I'd have a Cadillac where my engine should be :lol:

Add another one to that list. :(

Been sick since yesterday, and it's not fun having to run into the backroom during work to blow your nose.

Took a day off from school today because of the sick, hopefully I'll e well enough to make it through work tomorrow, and then I have a leathers fitting on Sunday.

At least there was a Ridiculousness marathon today.
 
Despite the cold I've had for pretty much the entire week, today has been decent. It started off with completing some office work (took 15 hours to do!). I then went to the gas station and got a bottle of Dr Pepper (my 3rd in 3 days) and a Hershey Cookies and Cream bar. Then I had to rush to get back to school with 5 minutes left for lunch. I ran up to math class (not having ate my lunch yet) and was surprised to see we had a substitute teacher. He let me eat my "lunch" in class and is a pretty cool teacher, willing to help students and enthusiastic, rare to see in a teacher anymore (since they're more concerned about the government freezing their salaries for 3 years and banning strikes for that time than teaching well). After that class their was the staff vs. student dodgeball game in the gym, I sat by a few of my friends, I just finished my dr pepper and was holding the empty bottle when one of the teachers fired a ball from across the gym, and knocked the bottle out of my hand. I was impressed. Especially because I was sitting in the bleachers, in the middle row. After that we were dismissed early, I got home and slept. This cold has been xaoping away my energy, and now I can barely speak out loud.
 
Tired from work but glad to receive some bonus money though. Tomorrow should be a fun day to go shopping.

Thanks, as I found out yesterday he has two fractures in his right hand. One is just minor but the other is major and in his finger. The proper story from my brother was that he was using the drill in a man hole and it turned on him and ripped his hand around. And with the small space it wasn't too good (those were not his words. What he said sounded a lot smarter :p). He's going back in on Tuesday to find out if they will operate on it or not.

And your situation really does sound like hell. Must be really busy.
 
This thread is becoming infectious.

Relaxed day so far; breakfast and GTplanet, but in a moment a round of haircuts for everybody, (including your's truly, the Fabio look-alike) and then to attend a Birthday Party.
I'd rather read a book or tinker with my cars . . . but, duties, duties.. . .
 
It was quite nice.
The first part was pretty normal, just played some Midnight Club and whatnot. But in the evening, I went downtown to see Jerry Seinfeld do stand-up comedy. It was hilarious, and my mouth is now sore from laughing so much. I can't wait for him to come to town again. :p
 
Woke up with a bit of a headache so pulled a sicky. It's the first time I've had time off work for a long time now, I hope they don't fire me.

I had to tell them it was a muscle strain as the Chinese managers of the company don't believe that a migraine is a suitable excuse to take a day off work.
 
Well today I got to ride in a R8 V10, bought some stuff from puma and nearly wet my pants in the R8
 
I met my long lost nephew today in the local gym. We had a lot to talk about after all these years.
 
Well yesterday I moved down to University. The weather was (and still is) absolutely shocking, so moving everything into my room was interesting. My clothes were soaked as were a lot of my things.
I'm finding it rather difficult really, in terms of meeting people. It seems as though everyone already knows each other, they can talk easily and have a laugh and stuff. But I can't join in, I try to have a conversation with someone but it just goes badly and turns out really awkward. I guess I'm just completely out of my comfort zone, I don't know anyone yet. And it looks like the easiest way to get to know people is to go to the parties in the evening and get drunk. But the trouble is I'm not a big drinker, and I'm not that good socially in a large group of people, and it also turns out that I'm not that good socially in smaller groups. Even though I thought I was.

And today I've got nothing on as my course induction doesn't start till tomorrow, but everyone else's starts today. So they are all off doing something, and I'm just sat in my room. I would go out and do something if it wasn't for the torrential, non-stop rain.

I'm home sick, miss my girlfriend, my friends and family, I don't know anyone and I'm finding it really hard to change that. These next few weeks are going to be pretty tough. But I will persevere, hopefully when my seminars and lectures start I will get to know people on my course fairly quickly.

Well yesterday I...

It's tough at first but you'll get used to it, I personally found that trying to socialise led to me over thinking how to approach it, so I kind of stopped trying and people became more receptive, if you know what I mean. Kind of like a platonic 'playing hard to get'! Not that I was trying to be all cool and nonchalant or anything, but I guess it helped that I had one or two friends who joined at the same time as I did. Also the best thing you'll learn at uni is how to socialise with people so try to ignore the awkwardness because it will get better. It's also much, much easier once the course gets going.
 
God, this weather is awful, so its making the day seem extremely depressing.

I can't believe it has been constantly raining since last night at a volume that would quite easily drown everyone in the country if there weren't drainage systems.

Also, having fallen asleep leaving the heater on quite high and waking up three hours later wondering why the room was a sauna and I was very parched didn't help my mood this morning.

Currently installing VM VirtualBox, as I want a change to the OS on the laptop for the current moment.
 
*groans*

I'm sick to death of being the only one of my Monday social group with enough sense to know that getting plastered and acting like a complete buffoon isn't the way to go. The embarrassment I put up with today from some of them is beyond belief to the point were I'm considering getting a temporary ban order on them from the place we meet in.

*growl*
 
My day has certainly been something. Learned that I still have a cold, the Tylenol Cold medicine was merely ridding the symptoms, not the cold itself :grumpy:. Though I did play a few games to further my progress in my Madden NFL 12 franchise. Moved the Redskins to Houston (Became the new Texans) because the cpu relocated the original Texans franchise lol. Have the greatest kicker, and the greatest qb in history haha.
