So What (Was I doing again?)
I can just see Ahana coming back on: "Wait, Sera's pregnant???"
I remember that time I skipped a period while still dating my boyfriend and I grew so scared....but then remembered we hadn't had sex so then I just grew confused.
Oh man, that probably was weird.Skipping your period sounds like you just didn't want to deal with it so you just didn't haha. My first thought was that I don't think you can do that
I missed it :P I'm tired okay haha
*Sits back quietly, literally unable to contribute to this discussion* :p
I wish I could get pregnant though.
hat do you mean? Are you infertile or-
Oh I just meant I want to get pregnant :P I'd literally cry if I was infertile.
Ah. I wasn't sure if you meant you were infertile or, you know...

Like weird cravings, bad nausea, sudden weight gain, and I..."It's actually really normal for girls to miss periods. They technically aren't missed, just really prolonged. AND not to mention, every pregnancy symptom is a slightly altered period symptom so it's hard to tell without a test.
So, Thursday was Red Nose Day, which is basically a day dedicated to giving money to the well being of poor children. It was promoted on American Ninja Warrior, which my family and I watched. Apparently, the part of buying a red nose to pay for medicine for the kids, and wearing that nose to show support, really got to my littlest sister.
She begged my mother to let her buy a red nose today, but we weren't going to Walgreens. My mother told her "Red nose day was yesterday, they might not even have them anymore!"
Well that made her extremely upset. She said: "Only one day to help the poor children?!" It was adorable, and so very sweet.
Turned out, we did need to stop at Walgreens to get something from my grandparents, and my little sister got excited, and then upset because she realized she forgot her money (Yes, she wanted to use her own money to buy the nose for the children)
Finally, my mother gave in and went inside the store with her to get the red nose. When my sister came out, she had the biggest smile on her face, it was adorable. And she was so proud of herself that she helped the poor children.
Awww that is so sweet!
Hah, I didn't know that. Well, we were both there, so it makes sense. Now, I feel like I need to go look at it >.< But I forgot my password again!!
Mom said I wasn't allowed to celebrate Red Nose Day since I only care about poor people in Central Asia and the program caters to Africans, and I got really upset and said they count too.
That's really ridiculous :/ You should have been allowed to celebrate too!
I think she was just joking.
You never know with my mom though.
So...time for a real journal post. 2017 has been mostly sucky, not going to lie. Chaos started on January 1st, literally. I lost the bit of stability I had no idea I had been clinging to all this time. Every plan I had made for my future was suddenly gone and I was left in this weird state of not knowing what the heck I was supposed to do anymore.
Then school started. This past semester has been by far the hardest that I've dealt with, and that's including the semester I took my second English requirement. Throughout the whole thing, I was pulling a 69 in one of my classes and constantly freaking out because the work load was immense.
Overall, it was four full months of nothing but stress. There was little added things left and right that only made it worse, but that was the main part. Well that plus the fact that I've been seriously applying for jobs for nearly a year now and everything falls through.
For the past month or so, things started to look up. I did end up getting straight As this semester, thank you very much. I have a new best friend who is like a little sister to me, one that actually likes me haha Not to say that I got rid of my other sisters or best friend, of course. BUT my attitude has been totally....flat. I haven't wanted to do anything or even organize myself because everything fell into disarray during finals.
Slowly but surely I'm trying to get myself back on track now. Reading more, I'm gradually cleaning my room (which was not product of finals thank you very much it just needed it.), I got most of my character creating supplies back in order, and I'm getting more timely with roleplay responses so woo!
However, there's still a few things looming over my head that I just don't feel like doing lately -_- Updating all the books I've read here on GR, and well CHECKING MY EMAIL! I haven't checked it in like over two months, and I looked the other day...finding over 200 unread emails. So, yeah. I have that waiting for me to do... I'm sure they're just mostly from GoodReads and other websites I'm subscribed to, like Pinterest and Facebook too probably. I wish I could just click "Mark all as read" or whatever....but I'm worried there's something important in there too. If there is, I hope it wasn't time sensitive!!
Good luck getting things on track. If there's anyhting I can do for you ((within reason)), let me know.
That was not what I was expecting you to say. But thank you for being serious about it :)
What were you expecting me to say? :p And what do you mean "for being serious" ?
I thought you were going to joke and say something along the lines of "Yeah you better not get rid of me", but your real post was better.
OhSee? I can be serious: p
I relate to this, as pretty much everyone already knows. After I graduated, I became jitterish and jumpy and paranoid. There were times I would go for days without eating since I was too afraid of even doing that. I went to the library almost every single day since my own house scared me. I tried signing up for college, but my college advisor randomly quit on me and thus I have to find a new one so late into the year.... Then for most of the start of the year, I became too afraid to LEAVE my house. I was sick all the time.
But now that summer's here, I feel like part of my personality has returned. Mom is helping me get things sorted for college, I can actually leave the house. I got into new fandoms, and I'm reading more and playing more games, trying to relax.
So I guess it was more of late last year/early this year sucked for me, but I'm gradually getting everything together. And I'm glad that I went through all of that, as I feel stronger and healthier now as a result of overcoming it.

Obviously, I can relate to what you're feeling here, especially about the feeling stronger for it part. I feel different now, but it's a good thing I think.
Oh and on a side note, Ahana has gotten me addicted to Kpop! XD I've been listening to nothing but BTS for three days straight...
Not to mention I had like five thousand emails in total until I cleared my inbox out a few weeks ago.
Haha that's even worse than me XD
XD
Today we spent the day shopping, and all the while I was dreading the library teen program that was today. It was cardboard cosplay, which I was not looking forward to at all. I expected it to be a tedious tutorial that bored me to death. But it was a contest to make a costume in an hour and a half. Two of my sisters and I put the effort into a princess warrior costume and ended up winning first place!
Well, they didn't call it first place, but we got the best prize, so clearly we won.
Awesome!! That sounds loke a lot of fun.
I bet it was
My library doesn't do stuff like that. They did do a camp a few weeks ago where you made a virtual reality game, but I didn't sign up since I wasn't sure if I could make it to all the sessions.
It's part of our summer reading program, it was the kickoff.
My library is doing a summer reading program with prizes, but I haven't signed up yet.
Mom took us to sign up June 1st >.< I haven't read much yet.
I kinda want to sign up for mine, but I want to learn more first. I don't want to do something that'll make me travel all across the entire city, since I don't have any mode of travel for example.
Makes sense. I've been doing the same program for 5 years and so I pretty much know what to expect. Only thing is that the events have gotten a little more interesting over time, and the prizes usually are anime themed now. Which is nice.
They change our theme every year.
Lol
We technically have different "themes" but it's more like a name change. Nothing is really different at all.
My libraries have summer reading for little kids, not teens :\
Mine did but it only went up to 8th grade. I wish there were more aimed towards older groups.
