So to clarify...we can sing the harmonies as well as our lines that we picked, right?
Are emotions are gift or a curse? Interesting yeah? Well think about it for a second: if humans didnt have any emotions then we wouldnt be able to feel depressed. There would be no way to get our hopes up and therefore no way to bring them back down. We would hold no sentimental value to memories or past people in our lives, so when they die there would be no grief. Love would cease to exist (woo hoo!), it would just be some person you hang out with all the time. On the other hand, if we didnt have emotions, there would be no such thing as happiness. We would all just be blank faced robots doing their daily jobs and making the world go round. If there is no emotional attachment to anything, then there would be no strikes, no protests, no one would get annoyed with their job because they wouldnt have the ability to... Think about it: would life really be better if we were all just mindless robots roaming around? I mean sure, theres no such thing as emotional pain, but there would also be no such thing as enjoyment. The world would be quite dull if you ask me...what to you think?

Hey KHV! Havent been here in while... Now this poem is very...everywhere. Some verses have a set rhythm, others don't. None rhyme. Its very disjointed but I think in a thought process like this, it works. Lemme know what you think =) No! I said I screamed I screeched My vow to myself Heart failure was there Rising Climbing Peaking as it cracked Thats when I swore Promised Crossed my heart It will never break Then there was you Your eyes Your hair Your smile Your...everything Nothing about you whispered 'perfection' No, everything about you screamed it. No! I said I screamed I screeched My vow to myself But you were worth it The effort The pain The tears The shame Well, my thoughts were the only ones that mattered Oops. There was you Kissing the icing of a cakeface Uncovering the wretched beauty that lay beneath Then there was me Cold Alone Broken No where near as much as you'll be And I swore again No one is worth it No one should hurt The way that I did But you follow your logic That follows your emotion That follows your heart So when you follow the leader You're back at the start.

Ok, im not putting this in HWL because although i have it, i want to put this up for discussion. Do you think its a common fear? Do you think its a rational fear? Should it even be considered a fear? I think that in todays society it takes a shitload of confidence to not have a fear of being judged, so i think it is common, but how important it is depends on the person. I also think its rational, as i think its pretty natural to be afraid of what people think of you. I have this, but like i said everyone does to an extent, and for different reasons. I believe it links with paranoia and anxiety, so yes i definitely have it. Do you think you have this fear? Last question: if the fear of being judged is so common, does that mean that we has humans can never be completely personally satisfied with who we are? I would very much like your general comments on this :)
Havent listened to their new album yet, but so excited for it!!!
Hey hey KHV!!! Well, I have made a little LP for a part of my Art assignment. Any cnc anyone has would be appreciated heaps!! :) Thanks in advance :)
1. This actually helped a lot, so thankyou. I was actually on Photoshop the other day and my art teacher really liked what I had done so far, so I think as far as school goes, I'm gonna be ok 2. I tried to talk to him and explain that I'm stressed and that I need his help...and he kinda just blew up at me. He was going on about how I just 'must not like him'. I told him that wasn't true and that I still do, but that I need to focus. He was still pissed off...so yeah thats annoying me a bit 3. Much easier said than done. I can't just say to myself 'screw the haters, I'm awesome', I don't work that way. I suppose that's one of those things that will get better with time. Thankyou for your advice :)
Huh, who wouldve thought I'd be in this section again... KHV,I'm in a bit of a situation I've recently been having a whole bunch of stress issues, anxiety problems etc. Its mostly from my school work. I'm in my final year at school so my last lot of exams are soon and the pressure is killing me. Having just gotten my results from my last test, the majority of my marks were in the 70s. The course that I want to get into requires that I get 90. So heres some things that are stressing me: 1. My teachers. My art teacher especially, he may as well be just a giant d*ckhead. I have to do a major artwork due in a few months that I've barely started because he keeps telling me to change my idea. My solution is that I've changed it for a final time, not even telling him about it, not asking him for advice (I teach him how to use Photoshop anyway) and just doing my thing. My stress is that if i do that I might not get the greatest mark, but I don't want to have to change my idea every month. Some of my other subjects just call for some really intense study, and some just really frustrate me. Some things i used to get 90 in I get 65 in now. When I ask my teacher what I did wrong, she'll give me some sort of really vague comment that doesnt help me at all. This happens with most of my subjects. It frustrates me because I don't know what I'm doing wrong and no one will help me. 2. My boyfriend. Don't get this wrong, he is not the stress. He is, however, frustratingly determined to go out with me when I'm trying to study. He doesn't understand why I'm so stressed, or how stressed I am. We're in the same classes and because he can do really well in exams without studying, he expects me to do the same thing. So while I'm sitting in my room focusing on en essay or something, he will text me virtually every 10 minutes. "Hellooooo?" "Why arent you replying!" "Stop worrying about the exams!" "Stop stressing and reply" I told him off the other day about it, and told him that I don't prepare for exams the way he does, I'm not as smart as him, and when I tell him I'm studying, I'm ****ing studying. Long story short we had a fight because he thinks just because I don't text him when I'm busy means I don't like him anymore...so now our conversations are just full of awkward silences. To add to the anxiety, I'm worried I've hurt him by not texting him as much. 3. Social. Don't get me started on my social awkwardness. This is building from a thread I posted in January about 'anxiety and insanity'? Its basically the fact that I worry about what people will think of me if I do just about ANYTHING. It seems like I'm always trying really hard and not getting anywhere. I'm putting myself down all the time as sort of a motivational technique...but I'm not satisfied with any of my marks so far. I don't believe I'm good enough and the worst part is that I take it out on my friends, my family, my boyfriend etc. I don't feel like I can explain to them whats wrong with me because I'm worried they'll judge. I have virtually run out of all confidence, because in my head, "not good enough"="not good at all." So yeah, KHV, thats where I stand. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
If its ok I would like to join this little worm thingy :)
^This Having done the 'cheezy romantic date' thing to death, it gets kinda overrated. My idea of a perfect date? Playing a video game. At least that way we can have fun without him being all cheesy and corny and weird and gross...im not a fan of all that romantic beach setting stuff :P that might just be me though :P
Thats actually what i was getting at...sorry if my original post didnt make much sense
[video=youtube;XH_RXaqoz80]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XH_RXaqoz80[/video] Dear KHV, what is your overall view on the concept of 'love'? People see it as this glorious thing which is so amazing and whatnot, and other people see it as, basically, death to the heart. Me? I'm quite the cynic when it comes to 'love'. I don't believe it exists, and if it does, then it is 'like' until it is developed into love. Don't get me wrong, I'm all good for the family love. Loving your parents, siblings etc, I do believe that kind of love exists. However, that cheezy, cliche, stupid corny stuff that you see in movies? That romantic love? THATS what I don't believe in. Yes, I believe in having feelings for someone. Yes I believe in having a crush on someone, but the weird thing is that I believe that the feelings right up until you ask someone out are the highest level of feeling you will have for that person. Yes, you will still have feelings for them while you're dating them, but you won't fall in love with them for a very long time. ...am I making sense at all? Anyway, what I'm basically saying is that you will be in 'like' with someone for a very long time before you legitimately fall in love with them. You will have all these feelings that create the illusion of love until you actually feel it. Its kinda hard to explain, but romantic love is a much rarer concept than how it is used in our day. My view: If its not true, its not love. Its an illusion created with feelings, but its not actually love. I also believe in soulmates, or one perfect person for each person, so that might have something to do with my view on it. Discuss this, KHV. Agree? Disagree? I wanna hear your view on this stuff :)
You misunderstand me. I don't limit myself because of my youth. I'm saying that I 'like' him, but to go as far as being 'in love'...i dunno. How am I supposed to know what it is? Do I define it as that sick feeling in my stomach, or being able to feel my heart beating out of my chest? See I would call those 'feelings'...I wouldn't call it 'love'.
While I have a boyfriend, I wouldn't necessarily say im 'in love' with him. I'm freaking 17...who in their right mind at my age knows what love is? Sure I will call it 'feelings' but I wouldn't call it 'love'...that's all :)
