We can live like Jack and Sally if you want...

[klena]

To understand how utterly lame I am - I only got that lyric today *points to subject line*. Y'see folks, as much of a sin as it is, The Nightmare Before Christmas is in no way as big over here as it is in the US. It was actually quite a learning experience for me.

Amazing.

I am sick. I'm still slightly jet-lagged, my manga shelf is now overflowing and I can't really walk on my floor again. Plus I have a stomach bug. Not entirely awesome.

And my best friend of 15 years had a leaving party on Wednesday as she was going to Spain until Christmas. I didn't even know she was leaving but I made it anyways. And then got all teared up in the car home because she got teared up first. I can't actually talk about it without my voice giving out on me. I don't even know why - she'll be back for Christmas...

People are really leaving me. And I feel like I'm doing nothing with my life. I don't even know if half my friends have gone to university yet and where they're living if they are.

I feel useless.

Actually, I feel left behind, sorta.

Things are really ending aren't they?

And I'm totally doubting my art skills for the Rising Stars of Manga competition.

So I'm not in a fantastic place at the minute. I think the fact that I've left high school forever is hitting me.

I feel alone. And annoyed at my emo-whining. Sorry guys. Didn't mean to. I'm going to bed. Now is not the time for this.

I know if my best friend was going far away, even if she'd be back in a few months, I'd be miserable. So don't blame yourself. Just do what you can to keep in touch.

For the rest, just hang in there, lovely. ::hugs:: ♥

Change is always hard, and you have friends. At least I know I am here if ya need to talk. Hang in there!

...don't stumble and fall due to an overflowing floor! I don't want you to break a leg.
So, I take it that you found your yaoi, then? =^^=

Your friend's leaving? For a whole term? That sucks. *huggles* Which one of them? And why?

Don't be silly, of COURSE you're doing something with your life. You're LIVING it. Okay, I know the feeling of hopelessness and helplessness and panic you get once you've finished school and don't know where to go, but LISTEN, miss, you could NEVER be useless, you hear me?! *glares at*

AND DO NOT DOUBT YOUR ART SKILLS!!!

Also, if you feel lonely, you can always come and visit me, you know that? *huggles again*

I had one of my best friends move to america so I can sympathise with you on that.

Don't look at things ending, look at them as new beginings.

Do not doubt your art skills. Only concentrate on the good parts of your skills and hold focus on them.

N.B.C was ok, but the merchandise was over done.....

What about the song title? Who is Jack and Sally? I dont believe I have ever watched the nightmare before christmas. Is that why I dont understand?

[marlinkhylacat]

Maybe it's 'cause I almost never listen to the radio anymore (it's always on in the car; I just don't listen), but I didn't get that line till a few months ago either! The song came on, and instead of ignoring it, I paid attention, then had a forehead-slap moment. XD I didn't actually LIKE that movie, though...maybe that's also why it took me so long to catch on. =^^;= That's my anecdote. You're like the sixth person I know who's had the exact same revelation about that line in that song. We need our own club. XD
