Things That Are on Your Mind

There's apparently a disorder that causes somebody to be gloomy and depressed if they don't get enough sunlight/vitamin d, so it appears as if the weather affects their mood. I probably have it. I mean, I was talking to my mom the other day about how my mood seems to be affected by the weather and she told me about it, and that I might have it like my grandma.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (appropriately acronymed to SAD). A couple studies done in the past ten years find no correlation to vitamin D deficiency though. Another study suggested that exercise could help some people with SAD. It's more common the farther north you go - one hypothesis suggests that this is a remnant of our late Pleistocene past (i.e. the last ice age). Humans don't hibernate, but adaptations that caused more inactivity during times of food scarcity would be more likely to survive. You'd have to see a professional for an actual diagnosis.

So I don't like kids much to begin with, but the photos of the new royal baby are especially annoying to me because Kate isn't even supporting her daughter's head correctly.

I really need to work on something I've been putting off the whole weekend (mainly because I had a pretty hectic one) but now that ZD seems to be up and running again, I can't seem to get off....XD

Real post of what is on my mind:

Last couple of weeks or so I have been a real misery guts, feeling like **** and not even being able to feel excited about going to uni and stuff in September and other things going on because I was just letting everything get on top of me. Literally spent everyday in tears over something lol and half of it was either in my head or just purely stupid. But you know what I've remembered? It can be hard to do something about your situation when it's just crap, but the fact is, you have to take the first step. Don't stand on the edge wondering about all the 'what if's', just go and do it. At worst you made a mistake and you can learn from it and at best it was the right thing to do and you'll feel better. And sometimes that first step is nothing but time- everyone should allow themselves time whether that's to get over a break up or to get better from an illness or even after you've had a fight with a loved one.

You rock, Beauts, keep bein' awesome. ^_^

I strongly disagree with that.

Perpetual self-depreciation

Ok but really you're not a bad person (and you've had your issues but that's all in the past now).

You are no such thing. You're a great guy and you're a lot of fun to talk to. You're a good friend.

Plus anyone who likes Silica is no bad guy. ;p

The future scares me. I haven't gone this long since a major life scale **** up in years.

Records are made to be broken. For all you know you're going to set a huge one, don't set yourself up for failure.

I really think they should change the plain, simple name "Shout Box" to "The Milk Bar". After all, it's a place where we come to to chill out and laugh with friends, so why not? The only difference is there's no one standing there serving cold beverages.

Thanks Term it really makes a change my mistakes being small and manageable and not leading to chaotic and universe altering consequences

It's sad; I'm 25 and I still sleep with plush things.

That's really not a bad thing. I'm planning on sleeping with plush things until I'm 90 and unable to move.
