Day has just started and it's an awful one yet.
I need it to end and go back to sleep, please.

So.. had a group project due today. There were 4 of us in the group. Two of us did the majority of the work since we couldn't get whole of two of the members. We all met up to practice the presentation because we needed 15 minutes. One of the group members was like.. I will do most of the talking since I did the least amount of work (as in none of the work). I will make sure to stretch out the time. He had the longest part.. which I worked the hardest on and he rushed through it. He took less time then the rest of us and we had less. So pissed! I. Hate. Group. Projects.

Oooh, don't be sad! One is enough! I'm just missing home, and the day wasn't sooo awful at the end. Just a little... A big little.

I'm upset about work today and it doesn't help that someone important to my character was acting like a jerk.

the finnish word for grammar nazi is pilkkunussia it literally means comma fucker i dont know if that is more annoying than nazis or not but I think once you see enough paragraphs looking exactly like this you really start to see how important those little marks are that tell you when someone pauses during talking or when they start a new idea maybe maybe unless youre the jackass that doesnt use them sorry the jackass that dont use them

I only managed two days of work this week. That sucks. I would've had a third but somebody thought I wasn't fast enough, so they cancelled the shift. That's only the second time it happens to me but it sucks.

Also, I hate my hair. I don't want to use mousse, I just want it to stay off my face on its own, but the cut ensures it's always in my eyes.

Cantr has been somewhat annoying recently, on the level of human interactions. I've been irritated in real life too, maybe it's PMS. Last week I got a shift canceled because I was too slow (may have had something to do with someone overhearing me swearing, I suspect) and this week I haven't had any work yet. Maybe it's just a slow season. I used to work in this one place for about a month and I thought I could maybe stay there until the rest of the spring, but things got mixed up and someone else got my shift. Haven't heard from them since.

Well it can't have been my fault because I haven't played in almost three weeks. I logged in last Monday so my account wouldn't time out, and that's it. The game doesn't really appeal to me anymore, or maybe I'm just too busy to put any stock into it. Maybe I should just unsub and be done with it.

I know of one, (probably two) besides of me, who are stroking that same idea of yours too.
I can't "blame" it on being busy mself, though. Gñe.

Even if you do give up (You shouldn't? Encouragement woo) you'll be back. Maybe it'll take a couple years, but you'll be back.
