Lady, I didn't know you fought the battle. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Still fighting it. Thank you, Muse. I would really appreciate that.

Valedictorian. I graduated top of my class with a 3.9, yet the person who inspired me to do this and who encouraged me in thiis endeavor, no longer wants to have anything to do with me so this feels a bit hollow.

I have no one "special" to share this with all of my friends from my cohort are are off celebrating with their loved ones/lovers, and I am alone.
As always.

What is so wrong with me?

Firstly, congratulations on being valedictorian!

Secondly, I know that feeling.. of having someone who was the main or a big reason why you did so much to achieve something, but then when you do, that person isn't there anymore.

*hugs*

Thank you. :*)

I think it was doubly rough because I had no one there at the ceremony to celebrate, because my kids were at their aunt's house. It just didn't occur to anyone that perhaps, just perhaps, last night was a big deal to me. It just underscores the feeling that I only matter to people insofar as what they can take from me. They only think of me when they need me to do a favor for them. Other than that I may as well go screw myself.

It's kind of demoralizing. And all of my classmates went off with their family members to go out to dinner and celebrate their accomplishments and I went home alone to drink and get maudlin.

Well now I know I shouldn't drink alone, ever, even if it's a celebratory tipple. I don't drink much these days anyway, because who can afford to go out, right?

At any rate, it's a new day I guess.

Congratulations indeed! Quite an impressive feat.

I think you're quite an inspiration to me, mv. You're strong to go through all that you've been through.. and to still keep going.

Aww, thank you! The thing is, what other option is there but to move ahead? Occasionally, I feel as though I've failed in that regard because it has taken me so damned long to get back on my feet. Like, I should have moved sooner.

Someone accused me of being weak because it did take me so long to act and move on with my life. I guess because I allowed myself to succumb to depression and let that drag me down, he saw it as my being weak. But he had his reasons for trying to bring me down (he was a self-professed ******* and he was mad at me). I have to stop listening to the neg-head ********. I get enough of that from my own Inner Critic.
 
A few things...
  • Some of the posts here are funny. For others, I just feel like talking to you in person...though I'd probably end up listening much of the time.
  • Congrats on making valedictorian. (I know it's late, but still.)
  • The workers will arrive around 1300 hrs to deal with the broken water pipe. The rest of us still don't have running water. My knee hurts & I'm tired.
  • Entropy is the price we pay for existence.
 
I think I like the fact that it's blue more than the flavour :rolleyes:...

I think it's sad she passed away. I didn't know her very well, but I did like her. From one gamer girl to the next, much love <3
