Doubts re stamina.  Can I stay up all night in order to watch 3 FIFA WC matches or will I fall asleep at a critical time?

I hate it when I wake up this early on a Saturday.  Do I go back to bed and try to sleep more, or do I just make the damned coffee?

Maybe I'll go to the zoo today after all.

I'm always glad that I could wake up, coffee sounds good!

Jill you're already at the zoo honey!

Apparently, some people think chaos is only destruction. That's ridiculous. Destruction is only one possibility. Chaos is endless possibility.

I keep thinking back a few weeks ago where I saw this guy telling his kid something at the supermarket. It was fairly innocuous, but I'm not going to write it here because I feel weird about feeling angry about it. But what he said just rubbed me the wrong way. Like for some reason even though it was completely innocent it just hit a nerve inside me and I can't get it out of my head.

You know, I think about how much I struggle with my own mind sometimes. Like with stuff like this - I get fixated and nearly obsessed on something and it can cause a lot of pain when my mental health isn't up to standard. Like you're in your own personal version of hell.

Then I think about the people I work with (severely mentally ill)...they must be in hell nearly 24/7. That's why I'm not bothered by the possibility of violence*...I know it isn't about me, they're just living in their own personal version of hell and sometimes have no other way of trying to communicate.

*My opinion may change the first time I get punched in the face.

Told my brother that I'm FTM via text message. I'm just wondering what his response would be right now but I'm hoping for the best and expecting the worst.

I'm thinking about tattoos I want. And worrying about details and whether I'd change my mind/regret them for some reason despite the fact that I might never be able to get one of them. I need to get chest surgery first and that's a lot of money since my province doesn't cover it, so it'll either take who knows how long to save up enough money for either the surgery or moving to another province.
I'm worried about school. I need a 3.7 at least to get into grad school and I currently have a 3.1. I still have a few years in which I can bring it up, but I'm worried I won't be abel to. I need to get into grad school to go into research.
I'm also worried about finances. If I can't get into grad school, I'll have all that debt to pay and will probably have to go into even more Even if I do get into grad school, I'll have a heck of a lot of debt. Not to mention, I'll have to move to another province to continue my studies and that costs heaps of money. I wonder if I'm always going to be poor and barely scraping by.

Tomorrow my consult for the ba and setting up a date :/ I'm 5'11" 38c and just think I need to go up a size or two to accommodate my height. Guess I'm just blabbing but I can't lie nervous as hell no ones seen me unclothed in 7 years and very self-conscious of myself

How far into your education are you? Because you can easily bring up your average. Plus, many of them actually don't look at your overall GPA, they look at your GPA over the last 2 or 2.5 years of your first degree. It's well known among graduate committees that most people don't do as well in their first year and really hit their stride in the latter half of the second year. Then again, I didn't start doing well until into the third.

Since you're looking to work in neurology (I think? lol) I'm pretty sure you'll be raking in the dough one day, I wouldn't worry about that.

I'm wondering if I can take a big garbage bag of clothes to Goodwill on my bike. This month's paycheck is going to driver's ed, and then my dad will loan me some money to help me fix up an old car we have. So I'll be driving in like...2 months, but until then I'm going to need to be creative with my cycling because it's my main form of transportation.

I'm technically starting my third year, but most of my classes will be second year courses since I've been going part time due to my son's schedule. I want to go into neuroscience. Thanks! That encourages me a lot.

Do you have a backpack you can carry them in? If they don't all fit, you may have to make more than one trip.

[the old mare]

I'm sure he could it all in one trip if he tried...

I had withdraws my very first year, and several C minus grades, but I got all A- to A range in my third and (mostly) 4th year and my average went up to 3.7 from whatever it was before (maybe 3.3). You can definitely do it.

Backpack...yeah, but I guess I'd have to put all the clothes inside smaller bags to fit into the backpack. Actually if I fold them up, I could fit a lot more in and maybe put most in my backpack and a few in the bike bag.

That is brilliant actually.
