The "Let it out" Thread

[Skellisin]

@Sandy~ I'm gonna miss you Sis. I hope you write . Good luck with your job, and I hope things get better for the Sandbox

@Someguy~ Man... things never happen one at a time huh? I feel bad for you on the operaton. It's gotta be uncomfortable. The fights, well, unfortunately as a young man myself I understand your frustration. I would never back down when I was younger and it seemed like the fighting was on going. (I still don't like to back dwn from a challenge) I think you need to "choose" your battles. What I mean is, sometimes you gotta let things slide, you gotta walk away, or basically you have to make an extra effort to be in control. Nobody EVER wins in a fight. NOBODY! There is no winners. Use your energy for positive things, you will never regret it.

I will be thinking of you tomorrow, hope it goes well...

[someguy]

Yeah, I'm not much of a fighter. I wait for them to attack me first.
I defend myself after that.
Nobody should mess with a black belt.

Thanks for your support. I am in so much pain.
But thanks to skell, because he has shown a lot of support for me.
I have to go now guys. Love you all.

[Hitman]

Someguy, as Skellisin said, you should really 'back-off' from fights. I know exactly how you fell. I am a sucker when it comes to fights, I never give up but I learned I should. Same goes for you. Hope everything goes well on your operation and you can join us soon.

Perhonen, I don't know you, you don't know me and yet ...I am so happy for you. Great to hear good news!! Good luck on your job and let us hear how it went.

Sandbox, I am glad to hear things are going up-wards for your father-in-law and I'm sorry to hear that you have to get second jobs with your hubby. Life has ups and downs, maybe I'm young and I don't know much but I had plenty of them so just be strong and it'll pass!

[EscapeGirl]

All my dear Gamershooders! I'm member since 2004 (had to give up my first user name) but in the last year with all ups and downs life was changing dramatically. I moved to another country, met the "one" I knew all my life he is out there, got married, found the house I always dreamt of in a nice little valley on the banks of a river.... Just the job was horrible. Or still is for a few days. I was searching all the time for a better job but as a foreigner that is not easy. Two weeks ago I asked for some fingers crossed, please and - as you all know how powerful this forum is - in three weeks I start a new job and I am very confident that it will be better. So I just want to say a big

THANK YOU ALL!

I'm so VERY happy for you!! Seems things are now really going your way!! That's so wonderful, as it sounds as though you had some hard times. Congrats on meeting "the one," on your move, and also on your new job!! This is all so wonderful. CONGRATS!

Hey all, first my family and I would like to thank you for your prayers. My Father-in-law will be coming home in the next few days, unless there is another set back. He is still not in good health, but he is happy about going home. I believe in miracles, and I think the power of the hood pulled him through this. Thank You

Second, I have to say good bye for a while. This is very hard for me. *tears* Many of you have become very good friends, I will sincerely miss the giggles in chit chat, and everyone of you. But because of our financial situation, My husband and I have had to take a second jobs. Working two full time jobs will not give me much time for playing in the hood, much less time for anything else. But I will try, and stop in on my time off to say "hi".

Hopefully it won't take to long to get back on our feet, and I will once again be after Escapes tail in chat again

@Mistery know in your heart that I will be thinking of you and your family.

Take Care everyone,

Love Kathi (sprinkling lucky sand over the hood as she goes)

First, and foremost, I'm happy to hear that your father-in-law is doing better. I know things have been up and down. So, I'm very pleased to hear this. Big, warm to you and your loved ones. I'll keep thinking of them.

Secondly, I'm VERY sorry to hear that you're having such a difficult financial time. Seems it's just one thing after another. But you know what? You'll make it through this difficult and busy time, too. You're one tough lady, Kathi, and I have faith in you. Besides, you have all of your friends here hoping and praying that things look up for you soon. My tail can recover in the meantime.

Take care dear, and please feel free to PM or email me anytime. You know how to reach me. HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE, WARM, CARING, CATISH

Well, first I got a huge gash in my arm from woodshop(got my cutting board done though).
Then I find out that I need my appendix removed. I hate this so much. I just can't frickin stand this. I'm sitting here, trying to type this through tears. My week has been absolute hell(sorry mystery, but I need to), and I think I am going to explode at the next person who makes me mad.

And to top all of that off, I got into yet another fight today. The guy made some death threats to me over msn, I told him off, we got in a fight, and a knife was found in his pocket. I feel lucky just to be alive right now. But now I've learned that I can get support from my fellow gamerhooders, so just for a little while, can you guys just help me pull myself through the operation and the court date for the fight(He's getting charged with assault and some other charge). I'm supposed to take the stand and I don't want to slip up on the stand. This is all really stressful.

OMB!! Someguy, I'm so very saddened to hear that you're going through such a tough time. When it rains, it pours, huh? I hope you rest a lot from your surgery, and just try to stay relaxed. You should follow the advice of Skellisin and Hitman. It's good advice. I wish you a speedy recovery, my dear.

And yes, you can always turn to Gamershood. This is one very special place, with loads of wonderful people.

[perhonen]

Good luck for you someguy!

And thank you all. Yes, Hitman, we don't know each other but... could it be true that we all are connected in an unknown I truly believe that all the crossed fingers from here (and Nordinho as well) helped me going on. Suddenly I felt so encouraged. And I wish that for us all.

That's exactly what I mean Perhonen. Gamershood's a really great place! And the 's are free too.

Ok this is more a need for advice than anything...

so, theres this guy ive known for a short while, and now this year were in the same section in band. we have grown closer from band, and we were paired for a project so i went to his house and he acted as if i were one of his other friends like we played air hockey and he told me all of the things that he did with his other friends over the summer. but before that we went to lunch together. but besides all of this, i kinda developed a crush on him but i dont know, cuz i feel really open to him. like hes really funny, not too cute, but idk what it is. like i try not to flirt with him, but it just happens and i think hes doin it back but im not sure. and i put an away message up that said i was at his house and my bro started pickin on both of us. i dont know what to do. any advice would be greatly appreciated. tnx ~

[EscapeGirl]

Wow! I can totally relate to your situation. I used to have a lot of guy friends in high school, and only about 3 or 4 girl friends. Sometimes I'd also develop crushes on one of the guy friends. Do you know how he feels about you? Well, you could always just ask him to the movies or something - just the two of you, and see how he responds. He might catch on that it's a "date" type thing, and he might agree. You could also sit down and ask him straight out how he feels about you. I don't know this guy (obviously ), but in my past, if the guys were interested in me, they asked me first. But I know not all guys necessarily are able to approach a girl so easily.

[Swim Girl]

right like i know what you mean, but ive always been the quite one who never talks or does anything outgoing. but hes totally spontaneous. like this was the 1st time ive been to his house, and we worked on the project for like 10-20 mins and then we went and played games. Yea and i really cant just be like how do u feel about me, cuz then hell give me this look that he does when he knows that im up to something. but like the other day in chem my teacher said that this girl "owned" the test we had just gotten back, and his favorite word is owned so i just looked at him then we both burst out laughing, so its kinda mixd feelings...and realllyyy annoying

[EscapeGirl]

Aww!! I know what ya mean. Well, then just let things run their course for awhile, and see how things progress - IF they progress. If he's outgoing, and spontaneous, then maybe he'll approach YOU if the feeling's mutual. And besides, no need to rush into anything if you aren't sure how you feel right now, either. But I understand your frustration. You seem to really "get" eachother pretty well and have a lot of fun hanging out. I wish you luck!!

[Swim Girl]

awe thanks escape, that def clears things up. now im not totally confused and it wont be buggin me all night

[Mistery]

Yes, asking him directly might be difficult...
But how about the other suggestion of Escape, like asking him if he'd like to go to the cinema with you or sth like this? I don't know what your interests/hobbies are, but maybe there is something that both of you like to do. Then you could spend some time together, get to know each other better, and see if he has the same feelings as you.

[Swim Girl]

thanks mistery, the main thing that we have in common is friends, we both like similar music, and we both play percussion and that kinda all i can think of. so im gonna do what escape said itll prolly be easier that way
thanks again both of you

[Hitman]

Swimgirl, guys mostly make the first move and brake the ice. But, that doesen't happen everytime. I don't have any particular advice, but you could tell him ''indirectly'' that you fancy him. Sooner or later, he'll pick up the signals.

I need a little advice

So im a senior in high school and will be off to college nest year. My problem is all of a sudden I'm having huge doubts about what I want to major in. A couple years ago, I decided I liked an engineering major and haven't even considered changing my mind until now. I'm a real math and science girl, and I would like very much to major in that. But now I'm having problems. See, I really love music, I'm almost obsessed with it. I've been in choirs and taken music lessons for years, and now I'm taking music theory in school and love it so much. I know that music is my real calling and I dream about conducting a choir someday, but I'm just scared to be a music major. Everyone knows that musicians have a hard time making money, ect. But that's starting to matter less and less to me right now. I haven't even told my parents that I'm having second thoughts, and I just need some advice.
