In reply to How do I explain myself?, posted by Deneb on July 8, 2005, at 20:47:08
> Anyways, today he asked about how I was doing and what happened that day. I don't know what to say...it sounds completely insane to say that I almost killed myself because I was blocked from posting on a website?!? 0_o So should I just say that I had a really bad day??? Or that maybe I'm insane???
It depends on how much you want him to know about you. If you know him well enough to feel comfortable telling him the whole truth, then tell him. But if you don't know him that well, maybe you'd prefer to say that you were just having a bad day. It’s up to you.
> Oh boy...what have I gotten myself into?
>
> I'm such a loser.
> I have no experience in my field of study...I'm doomed.What is your field of study? Is it astronomy? You seem to have quite a bit of experience with astronomy. And even if it’s not astronomy, the point about studying is that you learn. If you were an expert already you wouldn't have to learn!
> I have no time for astronomy.
Is it because you're working too hard? If so, you might need to try to get more time off.
> I'm sad again. It sucks, I don't know why I ever thought I needed some more despair. I was happy then and didn't remember what despair really felt like. Oh well. Time for the gun fantasy once again.
>
> I don't want to age anymore.Ageing is wonderful (in my humble opinion!). As you age, you get more experience of life. You encounter new ideas, new people, new excitements, new knowledge.
Just think of the advances astronomy will make in the next ten years. You’ll enjoy the new discoveries, the new techniques, and so on. What will we learn about the exoplanet GQ Lupi B: is it really an exoplanet, or is it a brown dwarf? What will we learn from Deep Impact about the consistency of comets? What’s next?
