Would you say that the statement mind-over-body is true in all cases? I ask this because I was thinking about the man that A Beautiful Mind was based on and he overcame-- I think it was schizophrenia or are there 'mental diseases' out there that cannot be controlled no matter how strong your self-control is? I don't know if I'm making any sense. I guess I'm asking, do mental patients really need medication or can they be taught to overcome their disease with self-control? Another person who made me think of this was my youth minister who has A.D.D and can control it without medication. A therapist taught him a form of self-meditation that helps him to focus.

I had an epiphany. I am never going to be happy until I am happy with myself. I know, it sounds like something a third grader would know, but I am trying to turn over a new leaf. I can either brood like a vampire in a cave, or I can get out there and start living my life.
I am worried I am going to fail one of my classes. *sigh* My final is coming up, so I am going to work my butt off and try to make an 'A'. On a happy note, I had a test in another class today and I think I did good on it.

Baby, It's Cold Outside |

So, yesterday I guess you could tell that I was a little 'steamed'. Things are going better today, but I am still going to change my degree.
I watched Dr. Phil the other day. This woman talked about her mother, I think she was schizophrenic. It was very strange, but interesting, the way her mother saw everything. For example, she claimed that George Bush was living in her garage, and that people were living in her refridgerator. It sounded like something out of a horror movie.
My sister rented Madagascar last night. I thought it was cute. Hippo: "Where are the people?" Penquin: "We killed them and ate their livers." *complete silence* Then penquins laugh and say, "Just kidding, doll. The people are fine. They're on a slow lifeboat to China."

I'm changing my degree to library science. I am going to work in a library where it is quiet. The best thing about it is that there are libraries all over the country, so I can get away from this stupid town. I am not going to own any dogs or pets. I am not getting married or having children. I am just going to stay by myself and enjoy the quiet. I wish everyone would just leave me alone. I wish that they would all just leave. My parents are always knocking on the door, my sister keeps calling my name, the dogs keep barking, and the damn bird keeps sqawking. If anyone brings a pet within 100 feet of my house I am going to shoot them. If I don't get some alone time soon, I am going to go postal and just shoot someone. I am tired of my parents constantly being in my life. I am tired of my father because he has cameras set up around the house. My mother always asks thirty questions the second my foot comes inside. I would not mind one bit if everyone disappeared on the planet for 24 hours. That would be wonderful. I feel like I am going to suffocate inside this effing house. It seems like everyone wants to know every damn thing that is going on in my life every damn second of the day. I will tell them when I am ready. In the mean time, I just want everyone to back off.

Another Day--- Rent |
] |
Happy early turkey day everyone!
So I had a couple of people help me make a 'super low-budget' short movie. We did not finish it, but made a few scenes. It had to be the worst movie ever, but it was still fun to make. I watched War of the Worlds yesterday. The ending was very anti-climatic, but the movie was very good. I'm thinking about taking a road trip across the U.S. I want to go to the grand canyon and then I want to travel to northern California and see the redwoods. After that I want to take a trip to Philidelphia and see the 'Hershey' factory. It'll be kind of fun I think.

I watched the Labyrinth last night for the millionth time. I love the movie, but David Bowie is kind of scary. However, his 'scariness' fits the movie perfectly and he is a very wonderful singer. I'm sorry, but I just do not understand how people think he is drop dead gorgeous. His character does have a certain charm, but I think the man is just creepy looking.

I calmly e-mailed my brother and told him that "I assume you don't want the tickets because you never called back." His response was, "Oh, yeah, sorry about not calling back. Maria and I don't want to go." I'm not mad because he does not want the tickets... I'm mad because it would not have hurt him to make a thirty second phone call saying, "Thanks for the offer, but we don't want them," or something like that. *turns off soap box*

I really can't stand my brother sometimes. He's married now and lives on his own. It's like he wants nothing to do with this family or anything. He never calls my parents just to talk or anything like that. He never invites anyone over to his house. He never seems to have time for any of us. Yesterday, I offered him a couple of tickets to a hockey game because I would not be able to go. His response was, "Let me talk to Maria and I'll call you back tonight." Obviously I never got that phone call. They always wait until the last possible second to do anything. I am so tired of his crap. Another time... I missed church for three weeks in a row. He saw me at least five times in between and never mentions it, but when I go to church the first words out of his mouth are, "I missed you at church these last couple of weeks." That is bullcrap if I have ever heard it. I just want to smack him sometimes.

Today went by smoother. No breakdowns-- from me or the others I know. I bought Batman Begins last night. Christian Bale is nice-looking. Anyways... We are having a pre-Halloween party at work next Thursday. My boss said that we could all dress up. I originally wanted to dress-up like Arthur Dent from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but then I decided to just wear my own pajamas for free. There's not much else to say.

I'm getting frustrated with my classes. I'm tempted to quit, but that would be stupid because I'm already accepted into the program. My grades are not good. One of my classmates offered to have a study group Saturday and help me.
So much has happened this week. Monday, I had a kind of break down. I'm learning life's lessons I suppose. I woke up just wanting to cry for no reason. You keep everything bottled up and eventually you are going to have a minor breakdown. Yesterday, I forgot to set my alarm, so I woke up at 7:20-- my class starts at 8:00. Fortunately, I live less than ten minutes away from the school, so I did not have to rush too much.
Yesterday afternoon, one of my co-workers had an emotional breakdown. We work in a fileroom away from others, so it was only the two of us. She is very depressed and has been through a horrible time. Her husband of many years molested their daughter. She has been a housewife for a while and is trying to work her way through college now, so that she can support her children. I didn't know what to say to her, but I did my best to distract her with a made-up story. *shakes head*
Another friend of mine called me today. She was upset because she is gaining weight. She is mentally ill and has to take medications that affect her eating habits. I guess the world decided that it was 'let's get upset' week and forgot to inform me.
This week I feel like there has been challenge after challenge. It's nice to be home now.

I had a bad night last night. First, it seemed to take forever for me to fall asleep and when I finally did I had nightmares. I had a dream that I was outside of my house, it was dark. For some reason my dogs were out there with me and they could speak, but they had the voices of my parents. They were nice to me at first, but then one of them tried to stab me because they wanted to cook me. The knife, however, missed me and somehow landed beside my leg. I woke up shortly afterwards.
I went to the bathroom and came back to bed. I fell asleep almost instantly only to have another nightmare. This time, I dreamed that I was lying in my bed, but there were two ghosts in my room. For some reason, I remember thinking that if I kept my eyes closed and pretended to be asleep, they would not do anything to me. Then one of the ghosts kept trying to see if I was awake by blowing hair into my face and watching to see if I moved it aside.
