For me, my school dance is coming up soon and I'm excited for that! On the bad side, I feel like s**t about my apperance lately, since I have allergies and look like s**t due to those, plus over spring break I had a lot more sugar/unhealthy food then I normally do, and I feel like it's catching up to me, since a jumpsuit I bought a few weeks ago is already a little tight.
awww i'm sure your school dance will go great ;3 don't beat yourself up about your appearance, I'm sure your beautiful and you seem like a really nice person
ive been struggling with my mental health, because i am "dating" someone in my school i only see as a friend, but if i try to break up, they make me feel really bad about it, my parents called my art, one of the few things that makes me happy, worthless, and i havent been able to get a lot of sleep lately. i do have other friend at school, but i havnt really told anyone about my issues, because i dont want them to worry. and im too scared to tell my parents why ive been so upset lately, because i dont want to get yelled at.
One of the hardest, but most important, lessons I've had to learn in life is to be true to myself, even if other people don't like it, even if it makes them uncomfortable, even if it's scary. The person you're dating is using manipulation against you to get what they want. But what about what YOU want? Follow your heart, listen to your gut. As for your parents and your art... I'm so sorry they weren't supportive. I've experienced this in the past with my parents, and it hurts. But despite what they say, your art gives you joy, so don't let anyone extinguish that fire. Your art is yours, and no one else's, so you get to decide what to do with it.
I'm done with my degree start my summer holidays in three weeks! I can't wait to start my master degrees as i will finally be specialising in what i love and what i want to do! and i have so many ideas to draw and write and musics i want to learn to play on my accordion and i just think i'm going to have nice holidays so i'm looking forward to it a lot ˆˆ
On the minus side, I am having pain in my left knee so i can't go up on pointe shoes in my dance class, so here's to hoping it's just a tendonitis and not permanent bone damage due to ballet...
kinda sad cause great dream goes bye and im already forgetting it but i dont wanna forget it
i'm in the midst of rehearsals for annie at my school and we have to be off book this week so fingers crossed it goes well. we're preparing to get our new lab puppy Blue as well. and final exams are coming up soon so classes have been preparing us for that.
I read your bio and hopefully you will get un-banned :( Who even downvotes for cursing a troll? Like- downvote the troll instead
I’m in love with somebody but they are in a relationship. They are both my friends and I support them, but other than that, I’m currently trying to get my friend to friend me again after they unfriended me for no reason. ٩( 'ω' )و My life’s pretty great.
Me and my sisters just celebrated the first dandelion in our backyard
We won a competition last year and now we're trying to buy a house with the winnings. (Gods know it's the only way we could have afforded a house of our own!)
It's all very exciting and terrifying at the same time.
I'm so excited to have a garden of my own!
I’m failing math.
My hair is getting curly and long but my mom is making me cut it because she’s strict and doesn’t like it when my hair is long idk.
My parents are dog breeders so we have puppies :)
I didn’t get into choir.
I made it to VEX world championships.
I have new adhd meds that work better.
My blood sugar levels suck constantly. It’s kinda all over the place.
Okay that’s all I think. My life is kinda boring sorry.
Congrats about the ADHD meds! I've been meaning to get mine bumped up, but the shortage is an issue there
Ok I'll go with two things:
I (started) a website it's no where near done and Im on my phone so no link rn lol it's AI just really weak and I'm slowly making it better.
Secondly,
Gonna ask someone out this week that I liked two years back but but this time I got better tactics sooo
I've recently got back into nail painting. It gave me dysphoria for a while but I've been inspired by my very cisgender and masculine cousin and I'm really enjoying jt. My piercings also recently healed so now I can do fancy s**t with my thousands of cheap earrings that I'm probably slightly allergic to. I'm looking forward to a trip out to see family on Friday (they live in a suburban/rural area and I love hiking with them) which is going to be the first time my boyfriend meets my extended family. I'm slightly nervous since they're all incredibly talkative extroverts and he's an introvert, but it'll probably work out.
I got selected for a story telling through illustrations and comics mentorship and it starts on April 16 which is coincidentally the day I meet up with my girlfriends from school at the mall. I recently started binge watching a kids show called “Bluey” and I’m in love with it. (Coincidentally, a new episode of Bluey releases on April 16 so it will be a very fun day for me). I also decided to start mending relationships with my family by being more nicer to everyone. I used to be very mean with my brother and now I’m being nicer to him and I stopped bullying him and I hope that I don’t damage him further. About half the stress in my life is over now that school is over. My overall health is slowly improving. I went to an icecream shop yesterday and had a delicious sundae (the icecream was coffee flavoured). My mom was afraid of me becoming hyper but instead my brother became way more hyper. I also painted my nails a lovely shade of dark blue and I love it. My father assumed that liking dark nailpolish = wearing dark clothes = getting nose piercings and tattoos. I called him out for that bs and he apologised which was very nice. I hope life goes well for me for the next several months
Just came back to school and I've never felt more mentally drained. I feel empty.
I can’t comment right now for some reason so I’m bored and stuck in Spanish for 2 hours and since I can’t comment I’m getting even more bored..dang Bp staff needs to approve my account for the 5th time..
Trying not to fall asleep until the weekend
Pretty chill tbh, I just got back from spring break, and my field hockey season just started:)
I'm an immigrant to France trying to learn the language and the "system" - government, social services, schools, etc. My soon to he ex-husband has ignored our children and me since we moved here nearly 10 years ago. Assimilation and acculturation has been difficult. Our children suffered so much in their 1st 3 years that sspe were called by their public school because it was feared the children and I were being abused, which we were, but not in the way the French acknowledged. Psychological abuse is very difficult to prove. The children and I were subjected to weekly visits (not my husband) by social services who did nothing but ask how we were. My children hid from these people, and my anxiety was acerbated because I didn't speak French, and was not given a translator.
My husband beat me 3 days before my birthday when I insisted he give me the papers I needed for my carte de séjour.
I had complained to social services who ignored me, his family, who also ignored me, and his friends who recognized our suffering but it embarrassed him, so he cut off his friends from us.
It is now almost 4 years on since he beat me, we are separated, divorcing, but as he took all the money we had in our joint bank account, I have nothing to build on. My visa costs money. My papers that need to be translated into French cost money. I had to stop paying rent because it was either rent or heat the house and have hot water, which we don't have now anyway. I live in a remote hameau that doesn't have bus service except for the Collège, so I have difficulty traveling legally to the store, to the school, to pôle emploi. I can't even accept the basic job opportunities like auxiliare de vie because I don't have a legal permis de conduire in France. I am using a car that belongs to my husband's dead mother which is not legally registered in France, has no insurance and I do not have a French driving license because not only can't I afford the course, but the language of the Code requires a C2 level of language, which I don't have. The course for a drivers license is €1,5k, which I don't have.
France has been kind enough to foot the bill for my diabetes medication and my antidepressants and anti-anxiety meds. France has aided me by giving me €50 food vouchers that I can only use at 2 supermarkets in our communauté. There are no coupons to clip for use at these stores.
My house is heated by oil, but my stove uses butane. I bought an Instant Pot so I can cook meals when I can't afford to buy the butane cannister. My children and I haven't had a hot shower or bath in over a month. We wash from hot water from an electric kettle.
Because I can't pay rent, I'll be evicted soon. I actually don't know what I can do to help my children in this situation. My kids are failing at school, too, so I've got the school yelling at me to do better, but they don't want to know our situation.
I receive financial aid for my lawyer, but my lawyer has no interest in representing me very well in the divorce. The court recently decided I shouldn't receive financial support from my husband because I have not tried hard enough to find a job. (I only just recently received my long term visa which allows me to apply for educational training to work in France. McDo wouldn't hire me because I don't speak French well enough to work there!
Meanwhile, he's living on the money he took from our joint account that, if I had half, I could pay my landlord what I owe and move to a more appropriate living space. But I need to wait for the tribunal to decide this, which could take another year.
I'm trying to stay positive-like there are so many other people suffering worse than me, but I'm frustrated at how complicated this all is. I'm frustrated that the few friends I had made don't understand my situation - they are immigrants, but immigrants who moved to France 20 years ago, from the UK. They have not been abused by their spouses and abandoned in a country with no means of support.
I'm going to Boston with my class in a few weeks. I'm terrified and exicted at the same time. We also just adopted a dog who wants to eat my cat and tried attacking another dog.
