jacksparrow589 ~ I often do that! XD I watch/listen to stuff about Ghosts and end up being too scared to go to sleep! But it's so hard to resist because it's so interesting, isn't it? And that's what dads (and parents in general) are like really! You'll always be their little girl even when you're in your 40s!

Thunderkitten - I lived in Lincolnshire for a while, it's a very nice county. Good luck, once you settle in it'll be a lot easier.
jacksparrow589 - I never had that sort of relationship with my father, but my little sister does and I know she finds it difficult sometimes. Think it takes them a while to let go. And yes, even when people should grow up they don't, I spent a year washing up other peoples crockery.

I was in class at the time and we heard the siren at the fire station down the road go off. My class is in a building what used to be an abandoned gas station, so we had to run in the rain to the nearest academic building. I was drenched! Smart move on my part to forget a jacket. We were kept indoors for an hour until the weather let up. My next class ended up getting canceled because of the storm. What a fun day!

@Disasterpiece Long distant relationships can be rough. Sometimes they work out for people, sometimes they don't. My brother has proven that to me twice already with his own relationships. If you really like this girl, you could use your distance to get to know her more and build and strengthen your relationship that way. Email her, call her, or even add her on Facebook if you haven't already. If you don't want to get romantically involved with her, that's fine. You can take things slowly this way. I hope that helped.

Long distance relationships can be either good or bad. They can be good, because the person will be more apt to like you for who you are. I'm sure you've heard of people who are just in it for sex or just like people cause they're attractive, but with long distance this is less likely to happen. The bad part is the fact that you can't grant them the intimacy or anything until you see one other, so they may fall for another who is more accessible.
Now, this can also be vice-versa, that I know from experience... My distance is 2 hours and 15 minutes from my bf, and I see him maybe 5 times a year. He doesn't drive in snow though, and if you know Buffalo NY (my residence), we have snow for most of the year...
Either way, it can be a double edged sword, so you'll wanna take into consideration all of the consequences before committing to anything~

One of my friends wore his Kyouya (Ouran) costume to dinner and was amazingly in-character, causing me (as L--I had a white long-sleeve shirt and blue jeans, so it was simply cost-effective) and another friend (Rogue from X-Men) to giggle anytime he did something remotely Kyouya-like.
--After dinner, since "Rogue" hadn't gotten her costume on at that point, she went to dye a part of her hair. "Kyouya" and I called her to see how it was going...
Her: So, my hair isn't changing, but my entire scalp is switching between
really red and normal. Is that a bad sign?
Us (spontaneously, but completely in-sync): Uhhhhhhh...
Her: (Laughs) Yeah, I don't think so, either.
--I got pictures of those two, and one of an acquaintance who was the Doctor (Doctor Who). "Rogue" also got a picture of me doing the L thinking pose on a chair.

Little Washu - Yap, it's a new haircut. XD (Nah, just a temporary-seasonal avatar. ^^)
I'm getting on the bandwagon and writing my advise (basically the same advise as others XD) to Disasterpiece also. XD@
Disasterpiece - Stop worrying about the stuff that may come FOUR years in the future and making that dictates your life today! You will never know how this relationship will be in four years! For now, you found a girl you like (and who likes you) and now you can use the next four years to possibly develop this relationship. Enjoy the time you have with her today, this month, and this semester, then see how you two are feeling about each other at the end of semester, and continue doing that for the coming years. If it indeed lasts into 4th year, and you still don't know what to do then, we can give you more advise then. Ask us again that time. XD
Congratulations for finding a gf, and good luck!

-You know those days where there's a succession of annoying things that happen that just irritate you more and more? I've had one of those mornings/afternoons. I nearly got ran down, even though the lights on the crossing turned green to indicate that I could walk across the road. As I was crossing, this huge Landrover went through a red traffic light and if I'd taken one more step I would have been knocked down. I wondered why the woman on the other side of the road looked mortified when I was crossing over.
-In my philosophy lecture, I talked to this really pompous guy. We were talking about something and I said "Yeah, you may be right" and he replied "Well, yes. I almost always am right."
So then we started talking about going home, and he said that he "couldn't wait to get back to the civilised South", and there started the succession of annoying comments. xD
"We have Wimbeldon (and other things I can't remember) in the South, what have you got? Nothing."
"The North may be above the South but we still look down on you."
"You haven't read it? If your friends have read it then maybe they went down to the South where they have an invention called books."
"Oh, have you seen this? It's called a shoe, and what do you think of the wheel? Are you going to use that thing called...what's it called? Oh, a computer?"
And he basically said that Northerners are scum.
Bloody smarmy, pompous twit! I could tell by the smug look on his face that he wasn't joking- it got beyond a joke very quickly and I felt like he was actually making fun of me.

A Pierrot's Aria--Words do not describe how badly people like that repulse me. It's one thing to have someone joke about such things, knowing that, while they might be smarter than the average bear, they're not God, but those people who truly believe they're God's gift to the world and use that as an excuse to talk down like that make me incredibly angry. Just remember that you have one exceedingly important thing that he doesn't: manners. (Well, not just manners, but that's the main thing.)
CTs:
--I commented on a friend's status about politics yesterday. It wasn't a call to arms or anything, but I try not to put my political views as out there as I did. Hopefully nothing bad (or nothing at all!) comes of it.
--I finally got to see a friend today that I haven't seen in a year. He hasn't changed very much, which is just fine. I can tell I'll be back to "Shut up, Kris!"-ing him in no time!
(It's all in good fun.)
--Physics midterm in an hour. *dies*
EDIT: *lives* My professor came through! That test wasn't nearly as hard as the first one!
--Grrrr... Stupid scholarship application that won't let me save as I go. This is CSE! We're supposed to be able to do things like that! RAWR!

-*sigh* Labor laws are the dumbest thing...
You can always work as a farm hand. There are usually little to no labor restrictions for minors who work on farms.

-I should really be asleep right now. Either that or writing. I'm doing neither. :|
-ARGH, don't you hate it when you plan things, and then realize you have something else that interfers with that? I do. D: I really really really want to talk to my friend in Poland, and it's hard to arrange these calls because of the huge time zone differences, and we just decided on a time that works best for us and I realized I have dance practice at the exact same time. Decisions decisions. D:

Pierrot - Congrats, you found the campus tosspot. Someone who feels so out of place and finds it so impossible to make friends they go on the defensive and act like a complete git. Here is a little treat for you, my Campus Tosspot declared Wales wasn't a real country within ear shot of a group of drunk Welsh rugby players. I need not say more.
And yes, I'm from the Midlands and I still got the "you're from up North" attitude. It is tiresome.

- A wonderful and safe Bonfire Night to all my fellow British board members.
