Nice new set.

I may take you up on that offer.
The main thing I always need is someone to whine to, I've had a lot of time to think, so I've analyzed every problem and solution, and none of it is that hard to even fix... It's just that I'm trying to combat over a decade of negative conditioning so things don't usually go as planned.
A few of my friends have gladly taken the job of people to complain to.
It's all just a matter of adopting and raising a better mind-set. I need to ditch my old pessimistic mind-set that has always held me back, and take hold of an optimistic mindset that fully uses my stubbornness and dedication. Once I can manage that... well then I have the rest of my life ahead of me.

He's insane, but he's quickly rising up as one of my favorite teachers I've ever had.
I'm actually not doing so well in school lately, I've gotten a serious case of "no motivation" because so much of the work is just busy work... I'm terrible at busywork, which is why I really like Civics, the work has a purpose, and I'm not memorizing just to memorize, I'm memorizing to learn.
Gotta say the diversity is amazing, I've gone from Woodshop and Ceramics last year, to Rock Climbing/Film as Literature, to all my psychology classes this year. You can really take classes based on your interests, and my old school had nothing that even came close.
I'm very far behind, and I've been dealing with a lot of emotional stress/drama that I've been trying to work through, but I see everything working out once I get my crap together and get back on track.

I'll see what happens. It'll probably be similar.
The strange thing is I'm actually learning some very valuable info. I've got the odd-ball Teacher in Civics that had us turn our books in on the first day because he said "none of that is important, and you won't remember it anyway, so I'm going to actually teach you... and hopefully you choose to learn"
Combine that with Psychology, Psychology and Relationships, and Child and Adolescent development, and you have one crazy semester.
It's sad when I'm surprised that I'm actually learning useful info in school...

You are!?

You only look white?

No ones been giving me a hard time no, not yet. Just you wait when the novelty of the new person wears off though. ;p

Or a communist..

American's don't understand real humour though, do they...
