I'm currently sobbing over the EU. SERIOUSLY, LIFE? SERIOUSLY?! Also I really wish I could still speak Arabic. I used to be able to speak it well enough, because my friend's mam taught me from when I was like four. Now I can only remember thank you.

I hate that Im wasting my summer like this but theres nothing I can do really

I dont have any real friends to hang out with and even if I did, I live in the fricking middle of nowhere

And Im just stuck at home being as unproductive as fúck

I applied EVERYWHERE in town months ago, but some people can walk into those places with only a few days notice, no cv, nothing cause of contacts :mad:

And here I am, shining coins, I put them in a bowl of cola and vinegar and ketchup-and that is sadly probably one of the most productive things Ive did all summer

TLDR; Im pissed that everyone else is out there enjoying life, being a young adult, doing what young adults should do (concerts, holidays, working, etc) and Im here twiddling my thumbs self pitying Ive no "friends" to do sh1t with/cant get a job. I feel Im missing out on life but Im just stuck, theres nothing I can do about it. This is precious time Ill never get back but atm there aint nothing "precious" about it.

This is pretty much my life. I have a list of stuff I want to do/ places to go/ concerts and other stuff, as long as my arm but either nobody wants to do them with me or I've zero money to do them with. I miss Dublin.

We should team up, we can aspire to do things then find out were too broke to do them, TOGETHER

Sorry for highjacking this thread with my angst, felt like I had to rant anonymously somewhere and then I remembered the room of requirement of ranting exists here so...

So sick of the jobhunt. Had another interview today where someone again asked me to work for free while telling me how strong my portfolio is. I was so polite and nice but actually felt like getting up out of my chair, throwing my glass of water in the interviewers face and leaving the room. I won't work for free, I worked way too hard in college for that **** plus I've already done an internship where I worked for free so I've been there, done that now can I haz the real job plez. So frustrated.

It's people like Bill Cullen that have pervaded this sh*te. There comes a point where it's just not bloody viable to work for free, yet people like him would have you believe "Ah shur wouldn't you be lucky to get the experience?"

Eh, well no actually, because my landlord doesn't accept "experience" as rent unfortunately...

Hang in there man, you'll find something. Trust me, if I can get employment, anyone can. :P

Thanks! I actually feel so much better getting that off my chest. I try to be really positive most of the time because what's the point on letting things get to you? But this is really trying me. It'll be grand though. I just have to keep going

I'm trying to learn Let It Be, I think I may have cracked it!

My hypothesis is telling me DUD (chord change) DUD (chord change) etc. Time to put it to the test!

I'm so fed up of fighting with my sister. The house was shaking today.

Went out for a drive. with a friend, didnt enjoy today. i dont know was it just werent interested or what but we barely spoke while they spent socialising on the phone. then when i asked to talk they put on music. just a boring evening. Just cant wait to go home and drink a bottle of Shut the fck up. hide under a rock and forget my existence.

It seems I'm good at investing in relationships and then breaking hearts. I must have some fatal flaw that wont allow me to stay contented. Or maybe i'm just young. Either way I'm a big shitbag.

argh my life is mess

LoonyLovegood

It'll all get better, don't worry about it. Honestly.

I haven't slept and I have to clean the house because my Nan's staying over tonight and UGH

wnolan1992

A triple pronged argh:

1. My laptop is dead. Innards appear to be fried. One year warranty. One and half years old. Thousand euro ****ed down the drain.

2. So I got home from the staff party at 11 last night, was feeling a little peckish, so decided I'd order from my favourite takeaway. So on to Just-eat I go.

My receipt says my order was accepted at 11:34pm, with expected delivery at 12:15am. Grand job.

12:15am - "Hmm, I wonder where they are, these guys are usually early when I order from them."
12:30am - "OK, this is getting weird, they've never been this late, but I'll give them a few more minutes."
12:45am - "Right, what the f*ck?" Ring them, ask what the story is, they reply that the order didn't come through to them until 12:26am, and that the food was out for delivery. Bit pissed off, but alright, I'm still hungry and it's probably a genuine mistake.
1:15am - "Alright, this is gettting bloody ridiculous."
1:30am - Ring them, "Right, I just want to cancel this now. Refund my money and be done with it." "Alright, I'll get the manager to ring you back there in five minutes."
1:40am - Manager rings "Hi, so sorry about this." "Yeah, I know you're sorry, but I just want to cancel the order and get my money back." "If I cancel the order, it goes into the system and we won't deliver to you again, but what I can do is give you a tenner in credit for your next order and your food will be delivered there in ten minutes." Now, at this point I just wanted to go to bed, but this place's food is so nice I decided to just accept his ridiculous offer and be done with it.
1:55am - Food delivered. "Eh, there was meant to be a milkshake with this order?" "Ah man, I'm going to kill [insert name], I wasn't given that. Look, I'll just give you the price of it here." (Delivery driver was sound in fairness)


Ate one slice of pizza and fecked off to bed. Just a tad PO'd with this place....


3. Invoice for college accommodation was awaiting me when I got home today. Huzzah for having to write a cheque for two grand in the next week!



So yeah, yesterday was going so well, and it just ended so sh*ttily.

On Saturday, have to see my ex for the first time since we broke up. I'm already getting nable for it

Family occasions suuuuuuuck

Junco Partner

Had a lovely portion of pasta simmering away on the stove while I readied myself for work. Came into the kitchen after showering and changing all ready to pack up my food to bring with me only to find that my roomate had put the saucepan onto a different ring thinking I had it on a cold one. I hadn't. Off to work with an apple and nothing but what ifs in my head for the pasta that almost was.

Hmm, I have no idea when I was supposed to pick my subjects for 3rd year...this worries me.

When you register, it's different for science.

Very little said about all this isn't there, only dawned on me there that I still have to register and pick subjects etc

AND still have to sort out a house. Le sigh

I dunno, I'm not the one going into third year! (Oh, ****. I need to pay the repeat fee)

I has such a sad. I haven't liked a girl in ages and ages. And I finally meet a girl I like, and likes me back, but she's too heartbroken to commit. . . This is so crap.

Listening to sad music all morning really hasn't helped either!

Dying of a hangover. DYING. Stupid pints.

I don't want to post here but I have absolutely nothing to do. My teeth are killing me. And I'm sick of coming here. And in a whole new dimension of boredom. need to start making more friends. (insert emotional sadness here)

LoonyLovegood

About to start sobbing. Apparently if I'd dropped out of college they'd fund a repeat year, but because I struggled through with depression and anxiety and attempted, they won't. I'm so angry and pissed off and just ugh.
