  • FUCK YOU GEEKS

    Tuesday, April 1, 2008 | An Educational story

    Fuck you GEEKS, laughing, being all loud in the study area while watching stupid videos of wookies.  I feel anger because they are violating everyone's rights; yet if I am the one who gets angry, I'll look like the crazy BI POLAR FREAK.  Casue that's exactly what I feel like doing!  Releasing my anger on them for them being rude and stupid.  I have to get away from...

    Thanks to RoseinCali for posting this. I liked it so much I thought I'd put it in my journal! :) This is EXACTLY Fucktard! Again, it just makes me realize how much better off I am with him out of my life.

    Thursday, July 3, 2008 | An Educational story

    3.  I can change my present.
    4.  This condition is temporary.
    5.  Knowledge is power.
    6.  I am intelligen...

    Is there a way for someone to get over being irritable?
    Do you believe it is an inherited or a learned trait? Can it be both?
    Are some people just plain IRRITATING no matter how laid-back and easy-going of a person you are? (like some children I know....hee, hee)
    What things do people do that really irriatate you?
    What do you do, if anything, to try to get over or hide this terribly uncomfortable fee...
