It's the same here. I had a really good friend at Primary School, but we went to different Secondary Schools, so I haven't seen him for over 2 years. :(

I drifted away from most of my friends over the past five years. I'm just so different that I don't really have any close friends, and my parents won't really let me have a social life so I can't hang out with people I do consider my friends, meaning that I am never really close to anyone. Hence the depression.
 
Having to wait until 21.30 to launch a certain thread. :grumpy:

You have friends on GTP, we's here for you. Why haven't they invented teleportation yet, I'd pop over the pond and visit you...

Admittedly, I really screwed things up between me and my best friend. To be honest, there's rarely a day I don't think about my past friends. I don't want to sound like I'm saying it in a pervy way, but I miss the good times and knowing that I'd get to see and talk them again. Now I'm not so sure.

When I look back, I remember all the bad. I try to cover it up with the good but I can't. It's quite frustrating.
 
No problem. Enjoy it. :cheers: I'll send you some paints and other cars whenever I play as well.
 
I finished watching a very sad and depressing movie. It was called Grave of the Fireflies, and it's about two orphaned kids named Seita and Setsuko, taken place nearing the end of World War II on the Japanese side. There isn't any violence at all, just the two poor children trying to survive through the consequences of the war in society. And it was really hard to watch. Seita, the brother, tries to have as much fun as possible with Setsuko, avoiding the effects of the war. The things they did to do so was so tragic, to just evoke a smile. Rations, the death of their mother (soon their father), starvation, illness, etc. was the hardest of all. In the end, it is utterly saddening, esp. in the very end.
 
How in GT5 the beautiful 1969 Camaro comes in so many beautiful colors... I am buying about 10 of them to get all the colors I like.
 
Got a couple of things now. First my legs are absolutely killing me. Did a crazy leg workout and it's awesome because no joint pain, but sucks because so much muscle pain lol. Standing up or trying to walk is actually a dangerous task that I have to pay full attention to now. Second thing is there is some weird smell in my house. Not joking it smells like someone took a **** on the floor and walked away. However nothing has changed so I don't know what it could be. Its not like insane either sort of every once in a while you pick up on it. Hopefully it will just go away, but it's been 3 days already.

You know what? I agree.

The levels some women go to in terms of dressing up or wearing make up is embarrassing and laughable. They look like clown hookers. I find it a real problem, if this is what women think is attractive.

I say this to some female friends of mine but they insist that dressing up to the nines is critical, and wearing lots of make up is also vital when really... it just isn't.

It's even worse when there's a very pretty, very lovely girl but when she gets all dolled up she looks like an absolute abomination. But I daren't say that to her face. I can barely recognise it anyway.

👍 I think they are just trying to make people stop looking at their chest but their face. But they're looking at their face for the wrong reasons. :P

I've got over £800 in the bank.. Money is easy to come by these days

That's ridiculous. The most money I've ever had is one point recently I had $326.50... Roughly. That in £ is probably about £170-200. I worked for 200 of my $'s. The rest was for other various things.

Jeez Jai, please tell me you're just acting like you barely know anything. What grinds my gears? That 'money is easy to come by'. Hell no! We're in a recession, people are losing jobs. Only way you should have 800 is if you have a job. Otherwise you're just spoiled rotten. I have 50 dollars in my bank account. That amount won't go up till I get a job and work for every dollar I shall get.

Exactly! I'm going to start working for my dad during the holiday breaks later this year. I'll have my own PS3 and TV in no time! I'll need a new Computer desk though. Because this one will be too small with a new TV, PS3, external hardrive, computer speakers, PS2 sitting on it. It's already got all of those (except the PS3, but the TV is rather small).

The girl from high school who never liked you as much as you liked her still occasionally haunts your dreams 5 years on.

A very gearworthy grind.

Only if your dream was lucid. Then you could... Do something purely evil.

Well she does have an impressive chest. Or so I've noticed...

They're often semi-lucid. I'm aware that what is around me is a dream, is fiction and not real but I don't have a blank canvas to do what I want.

That's strange, because I thought that in a completely lucid dream you wake up when you realize it's a dream. :odd: :odd:
 
Wiki
A lucid dream is any dream in which one is aware that one is dreaming.

So I say semi-lucid. I'm aware that all around me is fantasy but I can't do what I want. Unfortunately.

I read that if you take your mind off of the fact that you're dreaming, it helps you stay in the dream.
A few days ago I became lucid myself and once I was lucid I started blacking out like what usually happens after you become lucid (I.e once your vision is completely blacked out you realise your eyes are closed). So I started to spin around in the dream because I read somewhere that helps… and I managed to stay in the dream for a little while longer :D

I thought that was just some thinking that you do in the mornings when you're half awake with your eyes shut trying to sleep again?
 
My two best friends who went to another high school. It's been about 7 months give or take, since I've seen them. This is the first time I've truly missed them since.

I messed things up though. I annoyed them I know it. They were brothers, and I annoyed one a lot, because I didn't believe he wanted to be my friend for some reason.

I doubt they think of me anymore, let alone in a positive way. Now I'll probably never get to see them again or really apologize and explain what was happening to me. Now I doubt many of my friends. It's an irrational fear of them. But I can't help it. I won't get too in depth here, but it all stemmed from a lie one friend told. Like I said I won't get in depth but anyone interested can PM me. I'm always willing and waiting to talk to someone.
