Understood, and I understand what you mean. I have a friend that feels the same way you do. Offer still stands if you want to vent~

That's unfortunate, as we're always being told, and telling people to be themselves. I guess it's more like be yourself as long as you don't stand out.

That's not weird~ I think it is weird to be able to sit in front of a screen for hours and hours. I am online checking constantly, but I am up doing other things, like reading or cleaning up my room. I always have music playing and sometimes I sing out loud! Oh, photography? I used to be into it, though it has faded quite a bit... I still refuse to sell my camera, I have a Canon T3i~

I should have some paints arriving on Thursday, then I can start painting. I got a basic set that had a few paints in it but I wanted to expand, so I ordered some more~ And I can't wait for the new tires for my motorcycle to arrive! Then I can go out on rides, such freedom!

I like Final Fantasy~ I've played 12 and 13/13-2. I also enjoy Skyrim~ I seem to like racing games more, though I hardly play anymore. I have been playing Smash Bros Brawl~

ah, I had that recently too with that game
I played it for about a month or two, while on medical leave from work, and for whatever reason, my pain meds made me want to play Animal Crossing lol
I've been wanting to get the new one, but I don't have a 3ds ^.^;;

I do a lot of reading too, I'm kind of hooked on Michael Crichton's books. I LOVE his writing style sooo much!!!

you do need to show us your paintings when you finish!

the author, some of his more popular books are Jurassic Park and Congo (since those are movies too)

I would offer to buy your wii, but I already have one, and I'm kinda broke-ish. my money's been going to the er and hospital :\

No, I don't paint yet~ But I want to! And once I do, I will certainly share my results~

I am getting the urge to draw~ So I think I will open photoshop and see what happens~

Oh, you have an apartment? Lucky... how expensive is Alaska? I lived on my own for a number of years but due to various circumstances had to move back with my parents... luckily I get along with them and I have my own space... but I do miss living on my own~

And I used to be able to sit for hours and hours, then I got into trucking and was constantly driving, and when I would stop driving, I would either sleep or walk around. So when I left trucking, I got bored easily. And that hasn't changed~

I do like to build models~ I can share a few pictures of models I've built, if you're curious~

My money has been going to fix up my motorcycle... I had saved up about $1500, which was actually just two paychecks from trucking... I was going to go up and visit my girlfriend and talk with her dad about proposing to her and buy an engagement ring; that was money for a car rental and the ring... but then about a week before I was to make my trip up, she dumped me... I quit trucking the next day cause I hate it~

Took some time to get over her... but I am now and I think I am ready to find a new girlfriend... my only problem is that I don't like going out to where people are because I don't like bars and clubs... and that's all there is around here.

Oh! You want to know something outrageous!? I got sick once and had to spend 4 hours in the ER... after everything was said and done, ER room bill, medicine, ER doctor, MRI, radiologist, ambulance... my bill was $33,500...

the book is amazing!! the movie is boring in comparison, it's still good with reading the book, but the book! OMG!!!

yeah :\
luckily a specialist I saw last thursday said he could help, I'm just waiting to hear back from him, going to try calling him tomorrow

yay for pets! I spoil my dog like crazy, or I did. When I'm better I'm going to have to take her on tons of walks and get her new toys and treats!

then you wouldn't have wanted to hear my bill after surgery O.o
luckily insurance, woo.. covered a little more than half of the amount.

~you could try going to a book-store then? just go in, look at books hang out at the cafe, then strike up a conversation with someone

Oh, I know! Jurassic Park and Lost World were amazing!

Another good book series is Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burrows, those are nothing like the old black and white TV series (which I loved) and the Disney movies~

Oh, I didn't have insurance (still don't)... but I got it all paid off... so all of the money from trucking went to pay off that medical bill, instead of going into the bank for me to save up for school or whatever...

There aren't any book stores around here... there is a Starbucks but I feel weird sitting in there... there is a Barnes and Noble in a town about 45 minutes away... but as I don't have my own car and I am not on my parents insurance, they'd have to drive me... although I hope to get my motorcycle license soon~ So then I could ride that there!
