What's up? Is it serious or something small? x0 -

If you push them too much they might clam up completely. I’m not saying you’re being pushy at all, just that the person you are worried about might perceive it that way. You best bet is to let them know you’re there for them and if they need to talk about anything that you’re willing to listen. If something is wrong they will come to you when they are ready.
I’m not one bit sleepy. :mad:
And I've study to do tomorrow for my exam Friday.0 -

That's very true. That's exactly what I'll do, thanks. 0 -

No probs.

Nope didn't get to go. Maybe next week. For some reason it's only on one day a week in Portlaoise. Hope I get to see it soon.
That's a bit weird.
There is a couple of bits they cut out of it, obviously I won't say what, but I was a bit disappointed that they chose to not include those bits because it really would not have made the film longer. But honestly, I'm just being pedantic about it. It's a great interpretation and fairly faithful to the book.
Also it has Josh Hutcherson in it so it's bound to be great.

Still undecided if I'm Team Peeta or Team Gale. :rolleyes:
Ah you can't miss the end of the film. :eek:
I'm Team Peeta all the way. No competition. Gale's alright... he's just no Peeta.
Where did you order Catching Fire from? Some great characters are introduced in it. /teases :pac:
Edit: OakeyDokey. There were 2 bits I was annoyed with and really it didn't make any difference to the length and would have stayed faithful to the book but sure, like you said it's a better version of the book than most films are.0 -

Tbh I am leaning a little bit more towards Team Peeta..
God I love the book depository. I just want to live in one of their warehouses!
Tbf, Gale doesn't get half as much page/screen time as Peeta does so it's hard to prefer that character when Peeta is just such a nice guy.
I just started watching House. Did a double take when I saw the woman that plays Teresa Lisbon from the Mentalist in the first scene! Thought I was after clicking into the wrong link somehow.0 -
Yeah I was just going to say Gale is really only in the first chapter or so even though he's mentioned a good bit. Peeta is lovely.
Oh you've reminded me I have to start watching The Mentalist online again. I was on the 3rd ep of season 2. 0 -

The Mentalist is pretty good. My obsession with it has waned since I caught up with real life airing of the shows. I'm all up to date with my usual programmes so I'm seeing what all the fuss is with House. Bah, hate waiting for things to buffer.0 -
I feel like I'll never catch up with it lol.
I was just thinking if I got the train to Athlone to see The Hunger Games and got the unemployed rate, it would cost the same as getting a normal ticket and popcorn in Portlaoise cinema. I have a Railcard and I get nearly a tenner off a normal train fare. Mad eh?? Lol.0 -

Not been on here in a while so hello all
I have my first Samaritan shift tonight... I am really looking forward to it.
So much has changed recently.... I have met some wonderful friends through my training and one in particular. An amazing woman that I think is such a strong lady.
We met for coffee the other day and got talking about the jobs we both did before we were made redundant. She lost her job a few months back. I told her my publishing background.
She told me her brother that took his life wrote a book before he died. They found it after he had passed away. He had a mental illness - it is the same my mum has. She asked would I read it for her as she found it too difficult.
I said yes and she emailed it to me. I started it last night and read for hours. I was totally bowled over. It is incredible - his life and journey. it is funny and touching and I found myself crying laughing and welling up at the tough times he endured.
i still have a long way to go but got up early to read more this morning.
She contacted a publisher a few weeks ago and gave them an outline. They want to see parts of it. I am going to edit it for her and we are going to choose what bits to send.
When I look back on last year and the tough time I had, and to think now I am going to start as a Samaritan, have decided to pursue a degree in counselling (I start the Foundation course next month)... my financial situation is still in tatters but there is so much hope there.
i feel alive again and all for the right reasons.
I feel honoured to be reading this man's book, and sometimes people come into our lives at the right time and for the right reasons.
How empty would our lives be without friends? I am so much luckier than I ever realised and just wanted to share. 0 -

At the doctor now, going to get that injection to the stomach. Fun times for all
Had to get them for fertility treatment - trigger shots. The first one the nurse did hurt like a mofo. And it was right where my tum met the edge of my desk at work. Sore for days. Next one himself did and it was grand.
Are yours the oily ones? I hear that those are worse. I'm a wuss with needles anyway so you have my sympathies.
...and PACK YOUR BAG!! 0 -
So. Tired.
Seems like a lot of us were up late! I didn't get a lot don't yesterday afternoon (love how people who wouldn't send a text all year decide to distract me yesterday.!)
I stayed up til 4, was absolutely freezing because the heat goes off at like 12. Woke up at 8:30 but couldn't move so started studying at 9.30.
Totally panicked yesterday! Kind of glad because it's Pushed me into that terrified - i - might - fail mode
I've to catch up on the last 10 pages of this post...but not til next week.
Hope study's going well for all of you! 0 -
