When my internship at the sugar factory was over, I had expected this here would end. I’m talking about me not having anything better to do than type out what I’m thinking and/or feeling simply because… well, because I don’t have anything better to do.



There seems to be more work to do around this alcohol factory here. It may just seem that way because I just had school for the last few weeks and my group got lucky, we managed to pick a project that did not require us to do very much. We all passed this school year with minimal effort. I’m glad I get to work here, and not just for the money I obviously make by spending my summer break working hard. I am glad for the experience, if this was an RPG, I am certain I’d have leveled up quite a bit since coming here. =D

This way my next internship won’t be as difficult to start, there will be little transition from time off to work.



But the main reason I’m here is still to distract myself. If you give me too much free time nowadays I will just spend it by sitting around and moping. That’s no good… I wish there was something I could do about how I’ve been feeling and everything, but nothing comes to mind. It’s just not as easy as some people seem to think. Actually, I don’t even like thinking about it much, I don’t want to depress myself and as hard as I’ve tried, I can’t seem to think of any solutions. So instead I try to be productive! That’ll work (pun alert).



My main problem nowadays is that I’m getting bitter and am losing what little confidence I managed to build up… And I can get so shy, or simply quiet. So this forces me out of the house, and around people. Even if all the girls here seem spoken for, I at least am around people. I do try to talk sometimes but I’m afraid I am not at all good at it… It’s not like I stutter or anything like that, I just don’t have anything to say. And asking personal questions just feels wrong to me. I can’t help but feel that if they wanted me to know, they’d tell! @_@



But at least I am better at it all than I once was. As quiet, silly, weird and stupid I can be, I am still improving. I am glad I’m here; it means I haven’t given up.



Blah, there I go again, such dramatics. As if I would allow me to kill myself over this. All that has happened is that some girl broke up with me. That’s not at all anything to get dramatic over, it’s no wonder people think I’m weird…



Guess Aidan was right when he thought I was overreacting over the whole thing.



Well, no matter. Things are going well.





Too bad I’m still a pessimist; I can’t imagine any girl being romantically interested in me ever again. It even takes an effort not to believe what I had with Samantha was all a lie, though I know she likes me lots even now. And Yvonne likes me a lot too, so it’s not like I’m doing that badly…



Of course, neither of those two is eligible nor do I know any other girls and since I’m as talkative as a cabbage, things do not look like they’re about to change. How terrific.



Meanwhile, I get to cringe every time a couple does anything even semi romantic and have to hear about the relationships of other people around me while trying hard not to grind my teeth.

Uh.. Enough about that…



It’s about time for me to go home; I had better wrap things up.





I’m usually busier around here, but today was a really quiet day. It’s quite a contrast with last week. I truly hope I won’t get that busy again anytime soon, I cannot handle stress very well. =(





So yeah, off I go.










...And so I got home and posted it. The end.

So! Today actually went well. I got all my work done and it was done okay. Not as good as I would like, but good enough.


Still, if I were to rate my performance this week, I'd give myself a 9.8....

Out of possible 15.



Yeah, that's... mediocre. But not too bad.

And given how much work I had to do, I am just glad I didn't screw up more.


Besides, I'm sure that when I'll get more used to working there I will do a lot better.



Still kinda ironic that I haven't worked this hard all year in school and it is now actually the summer break. I should be relaxing and here I am stressing myself something fierce!

Oh well, it still beats sitting around the house doing nothing and getting depressed as a result.


When working hard I can't possibly miss Samantha. =D



Well earned weekend now, let's play me some Team Fortress 2.

GENTLEMEN! *cloaks and disappears*





EDIT: Ah ha ha, I suck at the game now.

Have started vacation work, it is going well so far.

Is just... An interesting way to spend the time I would have off otherwise.




I am so going to try hard not to think what these next few weeks would be like if Samantha hadn't...


I still am way too quiet. Curse my shyness, I'll never find anyone else at this rate.

Oh well..

Okay, so it did not suck.

It could have gone better, but it could have gone a whole lot worse and yet it didn't.

Today was mostly spend waiting, though... But I guess it was worth it since apparently I did everything well enough.

So... Another year finished successfully.


Afterward we went to a classmate's place to have a barbecue (love to write that out, take that you shorteners!). After said barbecue (tee-hee!) we stayed some and had drinks and all that.

It was fun... But I guess I got reminded of things and the classmate her sister was there and she was cute, but I am too shy to even look at cute girls much.. All in all it made me a bit depressed.

And.. My mother was not entirely sure where I was and my mobile phone had run out of battery the day before so I did not have it on me. My mom was worried sick, so that was nice to come home to.


Meh... All's well that ends well.

..To an extent.


Oh well...

Or my preparations for that matter. Oh well, a presentation cannot ruin that much, can it?

..Can it? o-o




Oh god, this is going to suck. xD

Weird how talking to Samantha makes everything better.

...

Wish I had someone else in my life I could talk to and make me feel better...

Someone I wasn't in love with but cannot be with...


AHEM.

Anyway, I feel better after talking to her yesterday. I thought things through immediately afterward and I guess things make more sense now.

Also talked some to Michel and Emanuel today and I think I learned some more about myself and stuff...


I sure hope so... I want to be a good person...



IN OTHER NEWS: I love this song I'm listening to right now.

SO!

Today was... interesting.

I slept poorly last night, I dreamed about Samantha and it was far from happy. I woke up feeling quite depressed.

Since I am more or less used to depression now, I managed to ignore it somehow.

Instead of leaving for school, I, and my teammates, went to some chemistry stuff expo thing to ask about ion chromatography and generally look around. It was kinda fun! My favorite moment was when I talked to this guy who knew a lot about ICs and I just didn't feel like a lowly student, I liked that.

I also liked the awkward talking to that one German woman, we thought the booth she was with had ICs but it turned out they just had preparation thingies. Good thing the woman knew English because although I can understand German more or less (it being so similar to Dutch), I just can't reply in German. ^_^;



We quickly left and I returned home, but not before I went to get a pint of ice cream. I thought I deserved that much. Besides, I have a BMI of about 17. -_-; Underweight, underweight...

I then played some team fortress 2. I have taken a liking to the spy. ^-^
Medic is still my best class, but backstabbing is much fun if done right.

I'm a Fancy Bloody Wuss! =D


Hopefully I'll sleep better tonight. =/

You have always longed for tenderness, love and a sensitivity of feeling into which you would like to blend. You are a very gentle warm person and responsive to 'All things bright and beautiful'. This personifies a caring person, a person who 'needs' and indeed 'needs to be needed'.

You are totally dissatisfied with your present situation. Matters are not going right for you and you are seeking a means of escape. Your mental state of mind necessitates that you need to change your thinking patterns. Remember, if one particular modus operandi doesn't seem to work, then try something different.

At times one is burdened with more than one's fair share of problems and this would appear to be your situation at present. But you are adamant - you know what you wish to achieve - and by giving a little and taking a little you may well find that the realization of your dreams could become a reality.

There is considerable amount of stress present in your life at this time and this is perhaps due to some considerable mental and physical frustration. There are various physical needs that are necessary for your well-being but whatever the reasons - mostly of your own making - your needs are not being fulfilled. We wonder why? You are under the impression that nobody seems to care for you. This predicament is most uncomfortable and it is because of this that you are experiencing far more stress than you feel you can cope with. You need to find a soul mate - someone who truly understands you and whose standards are as high as your own. As matters stand you would like to break away from the vicious cycle that you find yourself entrapped but this is easier said than done. You refuse to compromise with your opinions and essentially you are unable to resolve the situation because you are continually postponing the making of the necessary decision. You are stubborn but this should be no deterrent experiencing a happy life.

You are completely worn out and you are not in the mood for any further demands on your resources. The situation - such as it is - has rendered you quite helpless, unable to continue the mental battle that you have been pursuing for some considerable time. Enough is enough. All you would like to do now would be to have some time for yourself, to find a peaceful situation where you can recuperate in your own time.





Scarily accurate? HMMMM...
