aw! I'm sorry the trip sucked, but at least you're home safe.

I'm going to have food and then a long shower, get into my PJs and watch Downton Abbey

Downton Abbey will definitely make you feel better.

It did for most of the episode and the end killed it! Quite literally

There's another person who needs to stop killing fictional characters but at least he didn't kill ALL of my favourite characters and there were more than 4 actual likeable ones.

Aw man, I am freaking out >.< I'm finishing my application to volunteer at Corrymeela for a year, but then I have to think like what do I want to do afterwards - and God I don't even know what I'll do with myself if I don't get accepted for it, because wtf. It's a nightmare. And everyone keeps saying like "Well what do you want to do", which is massively unhelpful because, hello, if I knew that then I'd fucking *do* it. URGH.

well, what do you NOT want to do?

I don't want to end up working in a shop, or doing something just to pay the rent. I don't want to end up staying in Belfast or Manchester without living anywhere else first. I don't want to be bored.

Try a bunch of things, go a bunch of places and see what works. There's no reason you have to settle down straight away.

Hnngh. OK. That sounds scary. OK. ....o.O

[Mister Sahara]

what captain oblivious said. don't panic. you'll figure it out eventually. good luck with the application!

That's half the fun! And you've already done it once, moved to Belfast on your own. If you can do that without quitting, you can do it again.

I love you guys OK, thinking brave thoughts. I'm a BAMF, I can be a BAMF with this too. P'foo.

Well, YOU... You can do it...

I've 'lived' here for like 7 years, Cee - I think it's got to the point now where my successes are kind of 'our' successes xD

[bambiraptor]

i've been denying it to myself for a few weeks now, but today i've snapped and am ready to admit i'm feeling quite shitty again.
hopefully it'll be a passing thing, but there's a fair few things in flux in my life right now and i can just tell that if my plans fail and i'm stuck in my job for another year something nasty's going to happen.
i was searching the other night on basically every careers website i could think of, and there are literally NO jobs suitable for me in my area. i'm at the stage where i hate my current job so much, i'm willing to do ANYTHING at all but all the non-catering ones require qualifications i don't have because i flaked out on school before sitting my exams, and i've been in a catering job for two years and if i have to smile politely at another person who asks for a 'coffee latte' (y'know, as opposed to those sewage lattes you also get) or grovel at the feet of some disgusting old posho who's just spilled scalding hot soup all over me i think i'll go on a murderous rampage which i'll probably end up regretting.
hopefully i can get into college, do my highers, go to uni and then end up as a really, really cool teacher and make all the kids dead interested in microbes or buddhism or whatever i end up teaching, but i'm catastrophising right now and the only future i can see for myself is a grubby existence being an absolute frustrated dickhead of a catering manager with an alcohol problem. and all my staff will have horrid and creative code names for me.

i've lost my thread but i think it says a lot about you guys here that i feel comfortable writing stuff like this here even though i like never post anymore. go you guys!!!
