I destroy your puny chocolate box.
Hate sodding Valentine's Day. Wish it would disappear forever.

It's not just the commercialism or the lovey-dovey couples (although those are just as irritating); it's the heightened instances of 'OH I HATE VALENTINE'S DAY BECAUSE IT'S RUBBISH AND I'M BITTER AND OOOH I WANT ATTENTION BECAUSE I'M SINGLE AND LOOK I CAN PRETEND TO BE ALL HURT AND LONELY AND BITTER AND TWISTED'. It makes me feel completely stupid, especially as everyone I know who's complaining about it has no reason to.

Get over it. Everything about this day smells.

I'm a go listen to the Eureka Seven theme for seven hours straight.

EDIT: But I do appreciate that it means a lot to other people, and I don't want to stamp on that. There's nothing wrong with expressing genuine feelings of love or appreciation for someone. But making a holiday out of it just seems cheap to me.

Comments.

Des: It is kind of intriguing :p I wonder if any other animes will be made of Nintendo properties... Pikmin, maybe?

Azure: Chicken burgers are the nectar of life, man. Although I have been eating a lot of them recently. I need to try and cut back.

I haven't got a problem with the current members- it's more the lack of overall activity. There's just a much less diverse range of threads. and far less than I seem to remember. Although I haven't been a regular for a very long time, so I could be wrong and just be viewing very selectively. I'll still hang around every once in a while, but it's just not for me no more.

And I think you've hit the nail very firmly on the head there. Or not, as both our cases may be ^_~ I make the mistake of always getting my hopes up that something will happen, and always come down fairly hard on myself when they don't for getting optimistic. And in a way I almost don't want a relationship anyway. but then I do, and then I don't...

In the end we didn't make a profit. Checking my emails a few days ago they forgot to put in the cost of the advert we had in their brochure, so we actually made about a £60 loss >.>; Never mind. It's not much, and we did get our grant.

Miss Wensday: Their parts were almost blink and you miss them in the book, so they really didn't need to be in the stage show. It's a big, active show with a lot of musical numbers so the smaller characters have to be pushed aside for larger set pieces. It seemed to work really well, though.

Greg: Hehe, I admire your faith :p But thank you. I'm not going to give up on this, as hard as it is. I've really struggled the last couple of days to put anything together. Once I have something down, even if it's rubbish, I can always come back and edit it later. I'm a bit worried about it becoming too long now...

Yeah, I know ^_^ It would just be disappointing if everything I'd built myself up for (specifically the acting and the reenactment) had to take a back seat. I'd feel like I'd be letting a lot of people down. But I would never let it get too far in the way of what I want to do. Even if I had a hip replacement tomorrow I'd still be sure to be back in armour by the end of the year :p

Hugging is the most I've gotten, aside from kisses on the cheek from friends, and a casual peck on the lips from a girl I didn't really fancy as I was trying to escape in my car. I won't go into that, though >.>;

I think I do notice the same connection. Me at computer most of the day = meeting no new people. Hmm...

I was never that great at constructing arguments, so I never really ventured into the meatier discussions in the lounge. Unfortunately that seems to be where the bulk of activity takes place; that and the 'Theater', and I'm not really into RPGs any more. They all seem pretty similar. At the same time I can't help but feel it's more cliquey than it used to be. Although that might just be looking in as an outsider.

Lilia: Can you tell that to some of the girls round here? I'd appreciate them knowing that :p

Writing gives me a great buzz, especially if it's putting down a story I've been creating for some time. There's just something I find so rewarding about forming words in such a way that can evoke emotions from people, you know? That's another of the reasons I really like acting, too.

If Wi-fi works that far away, I'd love to challenge you. That'd be cool ^_^

I'd never even consider suicide, especially over something like that. You've no worried there. When I get emotional I talk to people about it, and that's my release. I don't harm myself, or smoke, or get drunk, or take drugs. A good, healthy chat is enough for me. And maybe a film of some sort.
