I go through these zones too - and sometimes the only thing you can say to yourself, is exactly what you did! :) No one is going to fix your problems but you, much as we would love to think otherwise.

And by the way, I think that you are very pretty. (I've only seen your profile picture, but I thought it was a very pretty picture at that.) Please take care.

It happens and while I'm still a bit embarrassed, I'm just pressing on.

Your week sounds like it sucked serious balls.<br />How unfortunate. <br />I'm glad that you have thrusted yourself out of your pity-fest, though. <br /><br />P.S. I don't understand how grown adults can pick on other grown adults like they are still in high school. It's so friggin' stupid.

One of my friends believes you should give yourself one day a week to feel bad, if you need it. I think we all go through these hard times and people can be so insensitive. Glad to see that you got your mojo back!keishuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15425697524293318047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-45633829723829624172011-04-29T21:42:09.683+10:002011-04-29T21:42:09.683+10:00Totally admire you.

It sounds like a tough week---and no, maybe in the dimensions of the world: you aren't full of problems, but by your standards, the standards that make YOU feel, you had a really, really tough week. Don't berate yourself about acting the way you did---you're human and that's one of the most amazing things! Coming through it, though, is more amazing---especially with a fresh outlook. <br /><br />I sure hope you're feeling better---that the flu has eventually cleared after a rest. Please don't get too stressed about uni (and seriously, WHAT kind of person picks on someone during a presentation?!)---because whatever happens, you'll find away to get through the work (as impossible as it so often seems). You're a beautiful, beautiful lady. xx<br /><br />P.S---I'll reply to your e-mail soon!beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607850411588165692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5060939041888666322.post-6184318318118866352011-04-29T15:49:53.665+10:002011-04-29T15:49:53.665+10:00One of those weeks?
