I took a break from osu! just to return to get silenced for 2 weeks right away, for no reason. That means I was gone for about a month in total. I realized a few things during that time.

  1. People suck. A lot.
  2. osu! people suck even more, like holy fuck. Most of you guys have no idea about the sense of rationality.
  3. People are really shallow, and tend to pretend shit that don't really matter to them a single bit.
  4. I have things to do. Like serious things that will help me get better at life.
Things to do include mainly having to focus more on school and less on people. A small step for a person like me, easily overcomeable, when school continues. Even if I did want to spend time with people, I would need to make sure that they are worth my time. Which is really tough, considering that I only know osu! people (NEDM is cool though). At least I have a few IRL friends.

I've spent time watching movies, even playing video games which is something completely new to me aside from Pokémon and Spyro. That's actually fun. I've spent time outdoors, hanging out at the beach, taking random walks and bus/train trips to nowhere. I've even found my motivation in making music again, and oh boy is that stuff delightful and refreshing. I've also slept a lot, escaping reality is another fun hobby of mine. ASMR videos have helped me a lot with seeing mostly good dreams.

Elliott Hulse's videos have become really helpful with managing my mindset and so on, there's some really good ideas I will, I HAVE TO adapt to my life in the future. I don't want to end up depressed, compliant, bound to fucking unnecessary things that will do shit for me. "Be an egomaniac!" - Elliott Hulse, 2014

So yeah, anyway, I'm leaving the city in 6 days, which means a lot of more good things for me for another week. I need to get my shit together before school starts, and continue keeping my shit together when the school starts. Shouldn't be tough, considering that I will have to do this, and it's my last 1,5 years coming up next - mainly easy subjects, and the interesting ones. Also Swedish, but who cares.
I'm really glad you have begun these changes. I feel like this is a step in the right direction for you and I encourage you to continue pursuing these changes as long as they continue to make you feel better.

There are people who can be really nasty in this world and I feel like it's better to associate yourself with even just one good person compared to being surrounded by 100 nasty people who don't honestly give a shit.

Keep fighting bud, you can do it.

I haven't been on a forum in a while, so forgive me if I'm not proper enough or too proper, but I've made some changes over the past year (or maybe two) that I don't mind sharing. c:

Like many others on the Internet, I am fairly shy, and I decided to stop letting it hold me back. I was never a shy or quiet person when I was younger, but I was bullied in elementary school which caused me to lose a lot of my confidence (appearance, abilities, etc.). All of the friends that I had when I was younger have always hurt me in one way or another, so I grew fairly untrusting of others. Thankfully I transferred schools in 7th grade and the bullying stopped, but I was still very insecure and afraid of people. I even made a very good friend who is still my best friend to this day. In high school, my shyness hindered me a lot. I made some friends, but I always cared so much of what others thought of me and it made me really depressed. A lot of it was by my own means, but I slowly realized that people's opinions of me shouldn't matter and they shouldn't affect my mood. I started to be myself instead of trying to "fit in" (which I wasn't particularly good at, anyways). I'm still pretty quiet and I don't talk unless I have something meaningful to say, but I don't hold back nearly as much as I used to and I am very content with the progress that I made. I'm a much happier person because of it! It took away 90% of my depression (and I'm sure the remaining 10% is just part of being a teenage girl).

In addition to that, I improved my grades drastically. When I was really young, I always excelled in school and did my best, but around the time I started to get bullied, my grades reflected how I was feeling. Unfortunately my grades were still pretty low in my freshman year of high school, but I can proudly say that I ended junior year with all A's.

My last thing is something I'm still working on, and it's finding a balance between being a kind person and being able to stand up for myself. I've gone through phases where I'm either way too nice and get pushed around, or I try standing up for myself but go too far and come off as overly-aggressive. It's hard to find a balance, but I've been trying to over the past two years and I think I'm slowly getting there. I want to be the best person that I can be, and I consider myself to be very open-hearted and understanding, but sometimes people take advantage of me and when I try to defend myself, I go too far. I want to be seen as a positive person, but I don't want people to think that they can treat me however they please.

Finally, I've tried to be more open with making new friendships and maintaining with old friends too. I'm a lot better at doing it online than in the real world, but I think that doing it online enables me to do it more easily when the time comes to do so in real life. I go to an all-girls school with 600 students, so I don't really have that many opportunities to make new friends (everyone already knows everyone and they know whether or not they want to be your friend) but I'd like to be a more sociable person in college, so I'm practicing. I've also found that I end up with one close friend, and I get attached, then if we get into an argument or something I become completely emotionally wrecked. I'm working on trying to have multiple close friends rather than one person to rely on, because for myself I don't feel that it is a healthy behavior.

Writing about this helped a lot! It made me realize how much progress I've made and how much I've yet to do. c: Thanks for reading, and I wish everyone the best of luck in improving themselves through whatever means necessary.

After taking a long drive to relax I realized today that my girlfriend leaving me was not the worst thing that could happen. Losing her is what really kicked me into overdrive to change all these negative aspects of myself. I do miss her and I still hope that one day I can see her again and maybe we can give it another shot, but I will continue to improve upon my changes and begin other things to really steer my life in the right direction. The only difference now is my goal is to be able to see her once again and that's what will motivate me to continue improving.

All I need to do is stay positive and hopefully life will work out well!

I decided to focus on just one thing per day. What can I do today that will improve my wellbeing in the future? Today I'm eating clean. Good, healthy, nutritious food. That's it. The length of my commitment: 24 hours. Tomorrow, who knows! Maybe a shower long enough to drain all the hot water out the tank. ahhh.. Anyhow, that's tomorrow.

I'd like to hear what others have done for themselves today. One new thing please, that you don't usually do, but would improve your future if you did.

How about... stop looking up forums and get to bed at a reasonable hour.

I want some in 24 hrs as to how you all went or now if you've already done something new and different. Let me know...

I recently got the courage and the will to fight for my goals and focus on the things i want to realize irl
i have been working out on me and on my problems since last year and this changed me a lot specially communicative wise
i used to be and i still am quite the introvert person from a few ages back, it all started when i quit high school because i couldn't take it anymore
might sound hard to believe but i had a depression when i was around 16/17 and i gave up on everything, until now i wasn't able to completely back up from it,i just found it impossible and summing it up up with real /online drama it made everything even worse for me so i was unable to completely fix it.
I still am on the track,there is times i fall down and quite hard sometimes tho i have learned to stand up and walk again on that road and one of the most important things that someone thought me is to share the burden as in allowing someone else carry a bit of the heavy weight that's on shoulders and trust me..this helped me a ton and i am glad i got to realize that.

so things said i applied to a vocational school where i will be finishing my remaining high school years (which is 3) by doing what i love the most which is digital art and i couldn't be more excited about it and its just mind blown for close people and myself,which is actually good!
isn't that a great feeling to have in the end of the day,right?just the fact that i was able to call to the school sign up and actually go there..its a big time boost up for the person that i am and gladly i am going to continue walking and realize my dreams because life is short and you need to live it even if you think that no one is there for you,no one cares yet there is always someone who does and wishes you well in life,so im doing that for myself..my grandparents and mom which have been there for me since i was a peanut sized human and someone really special in osu! who has been ing me even way before knowing me well.

im sorry guys for the long novel but i hope even if its a small wish of mine and im being able to realize it im sure you can also do it,just don't give up and keep on walking even if its to much of a ''mainstream word'' that everyone listens to but as soon as you apply that into your mind,it will make a big time difference

side note
i went through a lot of issues i was actually indirectly called dumb/stupid because i didn't finished my high school but hey look i am a smart and willing person even without the proper school education, yet i was well raised and like Einstein (in case you even know who that sir was) he wasn't either the greatest mathematician/ Physicist or had a great school education yet he turned out to be the best scientist in the surface of this planet. And to you who is going to ''university'',having that kind of behavior wont either get you anywhere just proves how stupid you are for making fun of people that has larger issues then you.

I usually make excuses to myself to avoid any social interaction for some reason like finishing homework, too tired to talk etc.. So I've been trying to force myself to talk to people even if I don't want to. (Unless I hate them)

My family has been worried about me, since im always in front of the computer playing video game and watching anime.
They are always saying the same thing over and over again like
Ex. ' You should go outside the weather is great. and ' you should socialize yourself more'
I cant blame them cuz they are right.

As a person iam shy and quiet. This is probly cuz of my speech disorder (stuttering) and Social anxiety disorder (SAD). In high school i got bullied a lot bcuz of my speech disorder, which also lowered my selfconfidence. I hated reading out loud for the class because my classmates, were grining and trying hard not to laugh out loud.
But i had a couple of good freinds, who were backing me up during that hard time.

My parents suggested that i should go to a private school this year, because its less students and the teachers care more.

Im also going to speak with a speech therapist soo that i stutter less and can build up my selfconfidence.
Im trying to get out of the house more
Im trying to use my computer and cell phone less now
Im going to bed earlier
Im going to be more social
Im less lazy then b4 and i started exercising

That double entendre tho.

Is it not painful to wear weights around your ankles when you run? I feel as if I would injure myself if I tried to do that while jogging.

Been a while and don't know if we can post several times about stuff, but I'm fully able to run a mile and a half and my physique has grown (along with my self confidence.) Already gained 10 pounds and can feel more energy in my body; it feels good to exercise.

P.S. JAKACHAN other than the rock climbing you do is there any other physical training you're committed to? Want to find new things to add to my routine.

I got a job at a grocery store (primarily to start paying on the student loan bills) and have been focusing almost entirely on making sure my coworkers and managers have as positive an opinion as possible about me. Primarily, I've been trying to improve communication in my department and become a that people can rely on since... our department is notorious for having people leave or get forcibly kicked out within two months of them ing. One side effect of working here is that I'm also actually gaining social skills since I never talked to anyone during high school.
I'm really damn glad I had the foresight to do this, since I was made aware of a future job opportunity that can finally get me out of that horrific work environment. Both of the managers I had worked under are pretty much guaranteed to give a full positive review of me when asked, and I have a couple other professional references from my coworkers that can point out that the strong points of my personality align perfectly with what they're looking for. On top of that, I have three people within the company I'm shooting for that can do the same thing. My resume is already completely done and ready to roll, so I basically only have to worry about making some kind of fatal mistake in an interview because I'm basically set.

Just having that job instead of my current one would improve my life drastically. Even discounting better pay and more benefits, pretty much everything is better. The hours are consistent (my current job is nowhere near consistent; I have times where I close the department at 9PM and have to be there at 7AM 2 days later), the work environment is calmer and ive (constant stress about having to multitask various things while also worrying about having to help the front end at my current job), the dress code is incredibly lax (I walked to work in the company's 'uniform', which is basically winter clothes; SUMMER IS FUN), I sit for most of the day (it's hard to walk after most shifts since I work 9 hours a day; virtually all of it is on my feet), etc. etc.

The only real downside is that I'd be talking to people over a phone, which I don't have the best time doing. |:

Otherwise, I"m a lot more comfortable with where my life is going now than I did a couple months ago. Now I just need to get my motivation back and I'll be set \o/

I just performed, on stage (actually not, the stage was too small for the group I'm in, so we decided not to perform on it). And I spontaneously talked to people I don't know during the orientation period.

I got the fresh start that I want in university and I'm not going to waste it. And I also want a girlfriend ;_;

After graduating 4 years ago now things have been progressively going down hill. I didn't get into a program I wanted to go into (Commerce) back in high school so I settled for a different alternative (Economics), that was my first mistake in a long LONG line of mistakes. Going into economics I found something out, I HATED IT! Like I really didn't find any joy or fulfillment in economics. So I made it my goal to get out and do something better. Only problem was I didn't have an action plan or way of getting out. For some reason I thought in my mind that I will just get handed things to me. That's mistake number 2. After then I started wasting year after year trying to "find something better" by doing really nothing. Seeing my friends all graduating, starting their careers, doing what they have a ion for, while I'm still in the same spot "trying" to move on. Years go on and people start to leave one by one, now I'm all alone, well that's what I thought. As those years move on, so does the cost of going to school for nothing. My student debt starts to pile as I'm going no where. Currently I'm about $16,000 in debt so far and to the university, they label me as a 1st year student. Imagine how that feels, having $16Gs in debt being a damn first year student...

A problem I have is not letting people see what's truly going on inside of me. I tell lies to cover up my flaws to maintain a certain image to people. That is mistake number 3. I started telling lies to the people I hold dear to me, my parents, family, girlfriend, friends, almost everyone, just to show that I can deal with things by myself and can be independent. I started getting tangled in my own web of lies that I lost it. People started to find out, people started to get mad at me for lie and I deserve it. Every bit of it I deserve. I broke down, I couldn't handle it any longer. I was hurting the people that mean the universe to me all just to maintain a fake image. Stupid right?

So I started letting people know that I need help, real help and quick. That's where things started to get better for me. At first it didn't seem like it, people still mad that I wasted time doing nothing, but they are honestly there to help me if they really do care about me. So now as I sit at home for this fall semester, I take this moment for fix everything up and get things organized and set. As I work full time at a local McDonald's (been there for 4 years but part time, which I hate!!! Lol) I decided to leave university in general and apply to something that is more suited for me called college. Apply to it at the beginning of September and guess what! I GOT IN!!! Got accepted into computer science, something I dabbled into and actually loved! Come the winter I start school again and this time its a new start!! A brand new me that is ready to change, ready to communicate better with people and to start expanding my horizon. I'm 22, I have my whole life ahead of me. Doesn't matter if the people around me are starting their lives now, everyone goes at it at their own pace and this is my pace!!!


TL:DR version:
I fucked up with school for 4 years and messed around with people. Took some time to step back and look at my situation, to get my shit together and start doing what I love to do. Keep people close, people that care will always have your back.

I finally managed to put effort in my exams (wrote 4 to 6,5 pages in each - aside from English and Swedish, all the exams were essay-only), will see the results in 2 weeks + some days. Guess I should be stoked. New semester started on Thursday, I hope I will do just as well or even better this time, despite being rather lonely and abandoned at school, not going to let that dampen my spark, no damn way. I guess there's always the chance for making new friends, too.

A lot of you know that I'm a pretty pessimistic person, and a mad perfectionist. I let one single mistake get me down, and I beat myself up about every mistake for ages on end. Bad test results, being terrible in P.E no change there, getting something wrong... all of those things make me sad. When I look back on myself, I just think how pathetic I am.

Well, I've taken something to heart that my teacher (who I've known since middle school) said to me a while ago: "Leave your pessimistic self behind at the old school, and embrace the optimistic light of this new school!"
Although I have been failing to reach this, after having a fairly bad day, I've decided to be a bit more determined about achieving one goal. To eliminate my pessimism for GOOD. I need to stop saying I'm stupid and labelling myself like that.

That's cool guys :) People say "I don't know how to do math" or "How am I supposed to understand this weird biological process with all these technical ", but that's because they never have tried studying before.
It might not become "Dang, this is so easy I can do this while sleeping"-level-easy (Though with enough studying that is possible for sure!), but it will help A LOT more than doing nothing and agonizing/running.

Every (second) day 2 muscle ups, and later this month it becomes 3 muscle ups. Then 4 and 5... by 2015 you might be able to hit 10! It's all about not giving up and appreciating the small successes like you're already doing. The feeling is amazing and it can be incredibly fun to see yourself improving.

I started out doing 10 pushups and 20 bycicle crunches every day. Few weeks later I did 15 pushups, 25 crunches => ... . Now I'm at 25 pushups and 35 crunches and it's hellofalot rewarding to see my physique looking better on top of being stronger!! :D
Just keep on going and it WILL be worth it

You know, I really love your teacher for saying that.
I tell this to you from my own experience, I, too, am a perfectionist. Everything I do has to be on point. Be it group work or sports, you can be damn sure when your whole team is trolling, I'll be that one 1,68m asian guy who still tries to turn it around on his own (the sport aspect still hasn't change, I'm a tryhard through and through). That doesn't sound so bad does it?
But when it comes to things like test or , in my case, relapsing (Masturbating even though you set yourself the goal not to) and you beat yourself up over that, it really is not gonna help!
The first and most important step is to forgive yourself. Of course in retrospect you realize all you've done wrong, how you could have done that and that better. But it's in the past, and for most things which happened in the past they remain unchangable. If you can change it - do it, if not - don't fret over it. That also applies to things where you slipped up in the past and you can't help it in the present moment.
Just the second most important step is that you learn from those mistakes. Maybe even write it down - "On my next test, I will score 100 points/an A/a 1. But to do that, I need to study"

For every mistake you do, forgive yourself, then change yourself so you don't repeat the same mistake. It's still like being a perfectionist - a unique characteristic that you can't change from one day to the other (surely if you genuinely want to change you can though) - but with forgiving yourself. And with those two attributes, you're really set out for life :)

Thank you for the motivation! And funny how you say 10, because that was the new goal i've set for myself, I must be able to do 10 in a row in order for it to be accomplished. Never give up, never say you can't, because when i started out lifting 10 lbs i was laughed at. Who's laughing now, when i bench 205 lbs 4 times and i only weigh 132 lbs. You should see the looks on peoples faces, it fuels me to do more, keep staring at me, keep looking at someone who is short but able to do so much. They don't know that feel, they only know how to judge you, and look down upon you. I say F them and keep being yourself. let them stare, let them know that they wont ever be able to get to the level im at. I'm so glad i signed up, i was weak and pathetic before, thinking of why im such a loser. But gym made me realize how strong i can become. Even when im alone, i know im strong, i can see it, others can see it.

Thank You.

SPOILER
I'm no expert on this at all, so correct me if I'm wrong, but have you considered getting help from smoking rehabiliation centers? I feel like there should be many forms of counteractions, especially against something like smoking. It's pretty much a world-wide, mass-problem so there ought to be some people who can help.

Otherwise, if motivation is a problem, try out some self improvement books or videos, bro. I know that exact feeling and I still have the lack of motivation at times for things like excercising, socializing or many MANY other things, but there are definitely methods to push up that motivation, that will to fight against something.
There's youtubers, there's self-improvement books, and with these come methods to assist you in becoming the version of yourself that you strive to be.
I could write a lot of things down that I've found throughout my own journey, but unfortunately I'm not as linguistically talented to properly write it all down and still make it seem interesting.

If I may quote our dear Eminem:
"Sometimes you just feel tired, feel weak
And when you feel weak, you feel like you wanna just give up
But you gotta search within you, and gotta find that inner strength
And just pull that shit out of you"
He himself was under heavy influence of drugs, much stronger and more addictive than smoking. He couldn't write music anymore for a long time of his career because he didn't have motivation, didn't have the strength, because he kept doing drugs (and probably smoking as well).
But he also made it back and brought out his album "Recovery", because he sought for help through rehabiliation.

And trust me, what Eminem can do, everybody can do. It's fucking hard and I acknowledge that, but many people cope with shit like that and those who truly want to, always get out of that shithole.


SPOILER
My personal tips:
Try by cutting down on other habits. If you drink a lot of sugary water(soda)/juice, stop drinking them on a Wednesday and Saturday. Only drink water. After weeks or months, only drink water. Or only drink soda/juice on a friday. It's one of the healthiest and imo one of the more easier habit changes you can make. It's all about habits. Habits are hard to break, but once you break them, you can keep it that way much easier than before.
Maybe find other things that apply to your lifestyle that you could change into a healthier way like going on a walk for 20 minutes every day.
And when you feel ready (or the satisfaction of earning the previous habits), try the same with smoking. Delay your usual smoking time by 30-60 minutes. For every smoke you take, think "Nope, in 40 minutes only."
Eventually it becomes "Nope, not today, only tomorrow again." The same principle like the soda/juice. Stop smoking every Wednesday. Then on 2 days. And so on. As long as you can get that motivation, that inner strength, then you can beat every bad habit you want and become any person you'd like to be. It really isn't that simple, but it is.

Good luck bro. What everyone else can do, you can do too.

Here you can find a few youtubers who I hope will help you, since they could also help me.
https://www.youtube.com//Kemetprince1/videos
https://www.youtube.com//elliottsaidwhat/featured
https://www.youtube.com//GoldJacketLuke/videos
Just pick a few or search for videos that interest you by the title. They will help you with smoking, other bad habits, and will surely help you get that motivation from within.

Special mention: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z16vhtjWKL0 - "What is the Single Best Thing You Can Do to Quit Smoking?", a video that really hits the nail where it does the job. And in my opinion teaches a lot of other things, aside from just quit smoking - you should defintely check this out!

I told my form tutor this during my Academic Tutor session (chatting to form tutor about what went well this half term, what didn't and setting targets for next half term), and she's really happy about it. I also have a German end of unit test coming up, so I will do the same.
As for my target for next half term, I suggested becoming a lot less harsh on myself - Miss thought it was a bit of a large burden, so she suggested not to get upset if I get something wrong. I AM DETERMINED TO ACHIEVE THIS.
Maths assessment tomorrow though >o<

I got a job at a grocery store (primarily to start paying on the student loan bills) and have been focusing almost entirely on making sure my coworkers and managers have as positive an opinion as possible about me. Primarily, I've been trying to improve communication in my department and become a that people can rely on since... our department is notorious for having people leave or get forcibly kicked out within two months of them ing. One side effect of working here is that I'm also actually gaining social skills since I never talked to anyone during high school.
I'm really damn glad I had the foresight to do this, since I was made aware of a future job opportunity that can finally get me out of that horrific work environment. Both of the managers I had worked under are pretty much guaranteed to give a full positive review of me when asked, and I have a couple other professional references from my coworkers that can point out that the strong points of my personality align perfectly with what they're looking for. On top of that, I have three people within the company I'm shooting for that can do the same thing. My resume is already completely done and ready to roll, so I basically only have to worry about making some kind of fatal mistake in an interview because I'm basically set.

Just having that job instead of my current one would improve my life drastically. Even discounting better pay and more benefits, pretty much everything is better. The hours are consistent (my current job is nowhere near consistent; I have times where I close the department at 9PM and have to be there at 7AM 2 days later), the work environment is calmer and ive (constant stress about having to multitask various things while also worrying about having to help the front end at my current job), the dress code is incredibly lax (I walked to work in the company's 'uniform', which is basically winter clothes; SUMMER IS FUN), I sit for most of the day (it's hard to walk after most shifts since I work 9 hours a day; virtually all of it is on my feet), etc. etc.

The only real downside is that I'd be talking to people over a phone, which I don't have the best time doing. |:

Otherwise, I"m a lot more comfortable with where my life is going now than I did a couple months ago. Now I just need to get my motivation back and I'll be set \o/

Update. I have an interview for a position with the company in about an hour and a half. If things go well, I'll officially start working for them on the first of Decembver.

I'm still trying to work on being able to work hard for school and other "Important stuff". It feels like I'm letting my parents down at that part, Sister doing like the most impressive university available in the Netherlands and parents at kinda high-end jobs and here I am sitting behind my pc making small amounts of money with gaming and writing at forums, I don't go outside much because I don't like talking to stranger because I feel like I am waisting there time or they have better things to do. But yea that's like my complete story.

Congrats! I had tests as well! (I forgot about them so I hadn't revised T_T)
But I still got some decent scores, though! I'm a pessimist most of the time. But I sometimes keep the negative thoughts away by thinking and thinking (and sometimes talking to myself why/how this and that). I guess, everyday I become euphoric for a short period of time (although it goes away) by doing those things.

You sound like you've got the chillest maths teacher in the world. Good on you man.
Why waste time being angry or sad when you can just dream of good things and spend time on improving yourself.

Loads of celebrities and youtubers started out being that awkward, bullied, quiet and pessimistic guy and turned awesome instead. And that turn was not a moment, but a progress, a progress that was long and hard but - in the end - worth it.
The most notable example I know of is nigahiga. Just watch his draw my life video, it's really a feel-good story of an awkward boy turning into what he is today

My issue is that I am constantly depressed and unhappy, and like you I'm pretty sure I have some kind of an anger issue, but I have done a couple of things to try and help those things :D

I have made a final decision to seek as much help as possible from all of my peers before I self harm which has already helped.
I have decided every afternoon after school to spend the rest of the day that the sun is out sitting there in the sun, I tan very well and I don't burn and it's been a few years since I got some colour haha, the Vitamin D has also made me a happier person and spending the afternoon outside has made me feeel better about myself and made me a happier person in general :)

Lets start from the beginning: I used to be quite the lazy boy. Never doing anything, not following orders or whatever. I thought to myself all the time that I wasn't doing anything wrong.

Well, that was the case a few months ago: Now I'm actually doing stuff outside of computers. I used to play video games between 5-10 hours a day. Now I hardly play them for 3 hours. Yesterday, I actually quit playing games ALL TOGETHER except this game, Clash of Clans, and the Hyperdimension Neptunia games.

I always tell myself 'I did wrong' whenever I do wrong now. That actually happened yesterday as well. And I am not as bad as I used to be with dealing with people. I still treat my friends like crap, jokingly anyway.
Nothing else really; but I DO still have things I need to work on.

I'm sad to say that I really didn't do very well at all.

What happened
Yeah, I got my results today. My teacher asked me to stay behind after the lesson to go through them with her.
I got 28 out of the possible 60 marks, giving me 47% and a C grade.
I'm so disappointed. I went in with an optimistic state of mind! I wasn't putting myself under any pressure... I think! My teacher and I had a glance at my paper and I did some incredibly silly mistakes, and I really struggled on one part.
My teacher tried to comfort me, saying that she was really proud of me for being optimistic through the test and that I'd done well, but I refused to believe it. I just kept on crying.

...I've given up. Even if I go into tests optimistic, with less stress on myself, I STILL fail. Why do I even bother TRYING?
I've got a German test coming up this week as well, and today's events have REALLY damaged my confidence. I don't know how to get back up now.

Cancelled my suicide plans c:
I'm so glad to hear that. :)

Anyway...
I forgot to mention - on Thursday, I spoke to my maths teacher about ways of improving my score (C-, for those who didn't read my wall of text the other day :P ), and I'm going to go through the paper with her on Monday break.

I spoke to the teacher that said "Leave your pessimistic self behind at the old school, and embrace the optimistic light of this new school!" to me (seems ages since she said that, lol) yesterday and she said I've done the right thing. :)

PC gaming has been a huge part of my life. I have been gaming since a long time ago. I also never did any sport and rarely went outdoors, so this is a huge thing for me.
I have quit CS:GO becuase I dont feel quite motivated to play anymore and is taking up too much of my time.
I also have started Muay Thai. It is something that I kept telling myself I'd eventually do but end up playing computer games in the end.
Also started to lift weights and go running.
Hope it goes well... :oops:

Oh and of course I will keep playing osu casually

I went through my maths paper today with my teacher. Turns out, with the amount of silly mistakes I'd made, if I'd got them right, I'd have gotten a B grade.
I actually did get the lowest score in my class. :(

But, even with that sad thought, I think that the session helped. A lot.

Since mid-September I started working out more, mostly cycling, weight lifting and push-ups, and I also decided to walk to university every other day, which is a 3 mile walk.

Recently been trying to cut down on a lot of processed food too and I kinda feel better for it. Rice is so cheap and vegetables last longer than I thought. Still need to research more meal ideas though.

Most importantly I'm actually getting my uni coursework done little by little each day and I should finish it on time. All to easy to just put it off till tomorrow even when the work isn't that hard.

hmmm...well I devoted myself to practice on traditional art and Digital art, also gaming.
At the moment I'm struggling in highschool since from where I live ( California,USA ) I'm in my 5th year in highschool and I was suppose to graduate late 2014 but I haven't due to low credits and from me skipping...( no not doing drugs or drinking,just skipping as in sleeping in ) I can't make it to graduate this year so I have to go to a adult school when I hit 18 or when school is over on late June. Pretty much I'm a slow learner.Other then that At the moment I want to go to a Art Institute College somewhere around San Fransisco or Los Angeles. I want to Study Abroad to japan to study anime games for my dream career I want to do ( Digital Game design ). Hmm what I've done to better myself...well I haven't cut in 2 years so I'm clean. So that's a start. I've been talking to my mom a lot lately so that's good also. ( Me and my mom weren't in good in the last 10 years due to Language barrier ) hmm and then I stopped being " lazy " throughout my year trying to exercise.
