English Paneling

1-4

This is how I will suffocate,
in your adoration.
Hands cover my mouth
while I keep my resolution.
I put my fingers in my ears,
and disappear
before you
tell me, tell me
you love me.

5

Desolate Bungalow

Gravity Paper

Ink Wired

Numb

Perpetual Absence

Unhinged Focus

Lost Wax

Done

6-9

Days, dry as dirt
kicked up in heels,
catch in my throat.
I want them back.
Tomorrow, better yet-
today, I will stop
rushing away. The distance
between here and the deserted
has been
forgotten.
Washed up,
I am ready to devour those days.

10-13

I am dead in a box in the center of the room talking to everyone or no one can hear me or they neglect to listen because I do not say what they want to hear or I make no sense to anyone but myself because I am only speaking to someone a million miles away from where I am at present they cannot hear me or I make no sense.

14-17

I am out of corks
with a barrel full of holes.
The relief will not stop;
resentment pouring and filling
the cracks in the walls,
plaster caked in puke green,
painted over in pink
for all the world to see.

That sounds wonderful Ergo! I can't imagine a New Years Eve without snow to be honest! Haha, one year I would love to be in Times Square for the ball drop at midnight :)

&yes, 2 left boots.. quite the night, I spent the next day in bed with the boy watching movies, playing Super Nintendo, and just trying to recover. Never again will I consume as much whiskey as was consumed that night!

If we end up going to Australia, I will shoot ya an email for sure! The boyfriend's Aunt and cousins live somewhere down under, not quite sure where but we're planning on a visit :)

I am taking Psychology, Native Studies, Woman and Gender Studies and Critical Thinking.

Last term I had Psych, Native Studies, Interpersonal Communication Skills, and Social Welfare Policy Analysis.

Uhm.. Native Studies is just the broad generality of the First Nations people of Canada from post-European contact up to the present time. It's definitely interesting I'd say, but there are points where my Prof repeats himself and just makes the class drag on, and on, and on.

I have had 2 friends do Social work recently, both as mature age and one I helped with assignments as she had never done any further studies after school so just to proof read and set them out properly, they were really interesting, very similar topics but Oz based of course.
I helped her quite a bit with the statistics she had to do as well as she hadn't ever done any before.

Do you have a preferred area you want to go into.
One of my friends works in mental health the other in general social work - counselling, housing, unemployment etc but she wants to get more into women's help

Anonymous said...

Well that's not traditionally an Arts or Science degree.

If it were slanted towards science you would be looking more at microbiological psychology , chemistry and maths as you are analyzing statistical data.

anon, Social Work is more a degree focusing on the knowledge required to work in the field. Here it is not part of either the Arts or Science school but it's own called Social Work and Human Services

JocelynHolly said...

I'm thinking I'm going to be focusing on Child and Family services. It's a hard area to get into because of certain circumstances or situations you may find, but I think it's my preferred area as of now. I was recently considering mental health and trying to get a job at the penitentiary just outside the city limits... but I'm not entirely sure what they kind of work would entail.

JocelynHolly said...

It can be very rewarding, at times stressful and you have to also learn how to detach yourself emotionally from the people you help.

Especially the children, it's easy to care and feel bonded to them. Though you feel it's more an honor to help them out.

JocelynHolly said...

Exactly. I know it'll be difficult at times to not want to do more than the profession allows, but I just want to be able to do a job that allows me to help kids.. I grew up with a tough childhood at times, so I want to help kids through tough times and have them believe someone cares about them or believes in them.

My friend in Mental Heath mainly works as a case worker for patients receiving care through the governments department. She works at the hospital and speaks with and counsels patients and keeps the records of their various experiences and treatments. Many of her patients have drug and alcohol addictions, some along with mental illnesses, some just mental illness. It is a field that has it's dangers though as some can get quite violent but fortunately that is rare and they are in an environment designed to be as safe for everyone as possible.

Child and family welfare would be a difficult area as it is charged with so much emotion but it would be very rewarding also. I think it'd be an area that you'd either be able to handle or not, and it would also ahve it's potential dangers, but if you can you can make a huge positive difference in peoples lives.

Do you have practical experience in the various areas as part of your course?

Such a tragedy. :(


"Hello, my name is Jared Lee Loughner," one read. "This video is my introduction to you! My favorite activity is conscience dreaming; the greatest inspiration for my political business information. Some of you don't dream—sadly."

But that wasn't all.

Loughner also included as his lone "favorite" video a chilling clip of a masked figure lighting an American flag on fire, set to a heavy metal song featuring the refrain: "Let the bodies hit the floor."

Also, he notably described his interests in the past tense and provided a hodgepodge list of favorite books that's now being dissected in the media—everything from "Mein Kampf" to "The Communist Manifesto," "Gulliver's Travels" to "The Wizard of Oz."

Could he have been helped if mental health care in America was made more easily accessible?

Would he have allowed himself to be helped?

Should legislators pass laws to make it easier to forcibly commit a 2nd or 3rd party? To make them get help. Would they really get the help they needed if it was forced upon them or would forcible detention make things worse?


Could doing any of those things have prevented this tragedy?

?

The tragic and devastating attack in Tucson, Arizona on U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords and other innocent victims including the killing of a 9-year-old girl and a federal judge was, sadly, preventable if the exceedingly ineffective mental health laws in America were changed.

Hiya anon, I'm gonna share my news with you sweetie.

I've been busy this week cos it's that time of year to decide whether I wanna stay on in this flat or move on. Well I decided to make a bigger move. I'm moving back to Sheffield. I'm fed up of being in London and never having the money to do anything. I'm not in financial trouble but I just tread water and I thought, what's the point of being away from all my friends and family if I'm not seeing any benefit. Back in Sheffield, I can take a lesser paid job and be much better off as things are much cheaper. So, that's what I'm gonna do. I move back home at the beginning of Feb and I'm really excited.


It's a new year, don't some of you people want to stop arguing and have a little fun instead. As you've pointed out, in days gone by this blog was so much more and it could be again. I continue to hope.

Hi PH sweetie, good luck with your degree. It all sounds very exciting.


Elena sweetie, enjoy being snowed in. Make the most of it and enjoy yourself sweetie.

Nighty night everyone xx

ergoproxy said...

morning

can't say "good" as Queensland at the moment is just horrific.
It's far south of where we are but we know people, and people who know people in areas devastated by what they are calling an instant inland tsunami. A city, 2000ft above sea level had what are normally small rivers peak at 9m with a few minutes and sweep though taking everything in it's path. 8 people dead, 72 (so far) missing and they don't even know where to look, cars swept away, people spending the night in the rain on their roof because they had no time to go anywhere else, whole small communities they can't contact. They just gave warnings to get out and get higher immediately yesterday as it surged through the rivers, and it's still torrential rain.
Just shocking.

one video, this happened in minutes with no warning

Pray for everyone please


missT, glad to hear your're well again, sounds like a good decision. It's all well and good to have higher paying work but if you lose quality of life it just isn't worth it. Rewards are often intangible and being with family and friends, and not feeling like you are scraping by is a much nicer lifestyle. Hope the move goes smoothly and I bet you'll love it!


Hi elena, I had a go at wiifit once when a friend leant us their wii, it was fun, but then I discovered Donkey Kong lol
We actually had the original little Nintendo Donkey Kong, it was orange and folded out. It's probably still at Mum and Dad's somewhere, it was my brothers.

hi elena, they just had a news report saying they have managed to check all the cars and they were all empty.
Still trying to get into smaller towns and other outlying homes to check for people, it's hard as roads are blocked, weather is bad for choppers and communications are out. Everyone is really hoping that they'll find everyone.
Apparently there is a child care centre with 10 kids, a parent and workers stuck, at least they are all ok.

good news that my friend is safe, bad news for many many other people. The state capital of Brisbane is expecting major flooding, predicted up to 20 000 homes will flood, and 3000 businesses.
However masses of volunteers along with govt are doing all they can to prepare and move belongings.
In 1974 same thing happened, I remember the floods then and they say this will be worse, mainly because of all the development that has gone on since then there are so many more homes in low lying areas.

Thus, regardless of overwhelming evidence to the contrary, the erotomaniac is convinced that his or her feelings are reciprocated - in other words, that you are equally in love with him or her. The erotomanic stalker interprets everything you do (or refrain from doing) as coded messages confessing to and conveying your eternal devotion to him and to your "relationship"

Best coping strategy

Ignore the erotomaniac. Do not communicate with him or her or even acknowledge his or her existence. The erotomaniac clutches at straws and often suffers from ideas of reference. S/He tends to blow out of proportion every comment or gesture of his "loved one".

Follow these behaviour tips – The No Contact Policy

Anonymous said...

Consequently, erotomaniacs react badly to any perceived rejection by their victims. They turn on a dime and become dangerously vindictive, out to destroy the source of their mounting frustration - you. When the "relationship" looks hopeless, many erotomaniacs turn to violence in a spree of self-destruction.

We've seen this behavior exhibited here more than a couple of times. We're pretty sure we know whom the dangerous ones are.

Anonymous said...

Erotomania is a type of delusion in which the affected person believes that another person, usually a stranger or famous person, is in love with him or her. The illness often occurs during psychosis, especially in patients with schizophrenia or bipolar mania.[1] In one case, erotomania was reported in a patient who had undergone surgery for a ruptured cerebral aneurysm.[2] During an erotomanic psychosis, the patient believes that a "secret admirer" is declaring his or her affection to the patient, often by special glances, signals, telepathy, or messages through the media. Usually the patient then returns the perceived affection by means of letters, phone calls, gifts, and visits to the unwitting recipient. Even though these advances are unexpected and unwanted, any denial of affection by the object of this delusional love is dismissed by the patient as a ploy to conceal the forbidden love from the rest of the world.[2]

The term erotomania is often confused with "obsessive love", obsession with unrequited love, or hypersexuality (see nymphomania). Obsessive love is not erotomania by definition.

Erotomania is also called de Clérambault's syndrome, after the French psychiatrist Gaëtan Gatian de Clérambault (1872–1934), who published a comprehensive review paper on the subject (Les Psychoses Passionelles) in 1921

The Love Obsessional Stalker

The love obsessional stalker is a stranger to, or casual acquaintance of the victim. The stalker develops a love obsession or fixation on another person with whom they have had no personal relationship. Not only does the love obsessional stalker attempt to live out his/her fantasies, he/she expects the victim to play an assigned role of loving them back with adoration and devotion. Initially the love obsessional stalker's motivation is to make the victim aware of his/her existence. Later he/she expects them to reciprocate his/her feelings. When the stalker fails to establish the relationship, he/she frequently harasses the victim.

The Erotomanic Stalker

Erotomania is a delusion in which the stalker believes the individual of his/her love, loves him/her back. The victim would readily return the stalker's affection, but are not able to because of some external influence. The delusion is based on a belief that the victim is the perfect match for them and that they are destined to be together forever. Erotomania frequently is not based on a sexual attraction. The erotomanic stalker fantasizes more about a romantic love and/or a spiritual union. The victim is usually of a higher status than the stalker. Efforts to contact the victim are common, but erotomanic stalkers may keep the delusion a secret. They study their victims, often from afar. They are commonly referred to as celebrity stalkers or obsessed fans.

In goodish news the Brisbane river peaked a metre (3 feet) lower than expected which means that though about 7000 houses are inundated it wasn't the 20 000 they were concerned for. Still many people with massive damage and out of their homes.
Terrible times still west of the city with 74 people still missing, 12 are confirmed dead and they said today that 11 are from only 2 families, just unimaginable.

Other areas of the state flooded last week have water receding, massive clean up and major problems with wrecked roads and rail, as well as destroyed farming land, crops and stock.

It's about 3/4 of the state that has been massively affected by flooding over the time since about 2 weeks before Xmas. To give you an idea of the size of that it's the entire land area of Alaska, or all of Texas, California and Montana together. Or 4 times the entire UK, or all of Quebec.

Gonna be a hard slog


otherwise hope everyone is well

Revvin' up your engine
Listen to her howlin' roar
Metal under tension
Beggin' you to touch and go
Highway to the Danger Zone

Ride into the Danger Zone

Headin' into twilight
Spreadin' out her wings tonight
She got you jumpin' off the track
And shovin' into overdrive

Highway to the Danger Zone
I'll take you
Right into the Danger Zone

You'll never say hello to you
Until you get it on the red line overload
You'll never know what you can do
Until you get it up as high as you can go

Out along the edges
Always where I burn to be
The further on the edge
The hotter the intensity

Highway to the Danger Zone
Gonna take you
Right into the Danger Zone

Highway to the Danger Zone

I wanna make shoes!!

January 14, 2011 8:14



In addition to wanting to be like water I think I want to make shoes too!

No one expects or asks a shoe maker to do much more than make or repair shoes.

I think shoe makers must lead nice quiet serene lives. :)

I bet most shoe makers are surrounded by the tranquil sounds of water. ;)

MissTottenham said...

Hiya guys, how are you?

I bet your family are thrilled to get you back:)


They so are Welshie. Everyone thinks I'm making the right decision. Can't wait now that I've made up my mind.


missT, glad to hear your're well again, sounds like a good decision. It's all well and good to have higher paying work but if you lose quality of life it just isn't worth it. Rewards are often intangible and being with family and friends, and not feeling like you are scraping by is a much nicer lifestyle. Hope the move goes smoothly and I bet you'll love it!


Thanks Ergo sweetie, you have hit the nail right on the head.

This flood is so sad. I read a story in the papers where this young lad was stuck in the water with his little brother and his mum. Even though he couldn't swim and was pretrified, he asked the rescuers to save his little brother first then him and his mum were swept to their deaths. Heartbreaking. Such a little hero.

I'm so glad your friend is OK. It must be so worrying.

And now it's flooding in Brazil. Scary.


Hey MissT good to see ya. I'm sure you are making the right decision about moving. But make sure I get your new address. I've got a small prezzie for you but I'll wait until you settle in to send it.


Aw bless you Elena sweetie. It's my old Sheffield address. If you don't have it, I'll email me but you spoil me with gifts.

good morning!

hey missT, there are so many tragic stories like that, so much bravery and so many lives forever changed. At least the clean up is going well, they ahve thousands of people just going around helping, people don't even know their names they just go in and get the job done. There is a volunteer website, church, sporting and social groups and just people who want to help all pitching in. Lots of places are offering free internet, free use of showers etc in gyms,a printer is offering free recovery &scanning of wet photos, people are also taking in animals, people with light planes flying goods to isolated areas, it is amazing to see.

morning elena!

Anonymous said...

It's wonderful to hear that, Ergo. It says a lot about your country. Despite the tragedy right now, you should be very proud of your people. Not every place has people who will do so much for strangers, and for nothing but to help one another. I pray things get better quickly over there.

Hello anons

Ergo I am glad to see you here. I have watched so many videos of what has happened in your country I truly feel overwhelmed. The other night I shocked Mr E by suddenly bursting into tears while we were watching the news. They were telling the story of the boy who was with his mother and younger brother. The rescuers started to take him but he told them to take his younger brother first. Sadly when they returned he and his mother had died. The report went on to say that instead of celebrating his birthday the father had to identify the bodies of his wife and son. Shit, I lost it. Started crying like a baby all the while thinking how courageous that boy was and even in such tragedy his father must be so proud.

So much sadness in the world right now.

Goodnight everyone. Hug your loved ones tight and realize just how lucky you are.

Elena, very very wise words, you never know what is ahead and everything can change suddenly with no warning.

I have watched a fair bit of flood coverage but sometimes it is just too much, the story of that young boy, and others from that day are so very very tragic. As well as the massive loss of life in Brazil.
If anything good can come of this I think one thing is for people to treasure what they have.

anon it is wonderful to see everyone joining together to help people out, and those of us too far away can donate to help in the rebuilding and recovery and not whinge about the inconveniences that we face as a result.
It is a shame that there are some cases of looting and attempts at charity scams, but they are a tiny minority and very brusquely dealt with, as they should be.

goodnight all

WHEN I'M 100, IF I LEAN A LITTLE, LET ME!!



The family wheeled Grandma out on the lawn, in her wheelchair, where the activities for her 100th birthday were taking place. Grandma couldn't speak very well, but she would write notes when she needed to communicate.

After a short time out on the lawn, Grandma started leaning off to the right, so some family members grabbed her, straightened her up, and stuffed pillows on her right.

A short time later, she started leaning off to her left, so again the family grabbed her and stuffed pillows on her left. Soon she started leaning forward, so the family members again grabbed her, and then tied a pillowcase around her waist to hold her up.

A nephew who arrived late came up to Grandma and said, 'Hi, Grandma, you're looking good! How are they treating you?'

Grandma took out her little notepad and slowly wrote a note to the nephew...... 'The bastards won't let me fart.'

The scientists built a model that showed a storm could last for more than 40 days and dump 10 feet of water on the state. The storm would be goaded on by an "atmospheric river" that would move water "at the same rate as 50 Mississippis discharging water into the Gulf of Mexico," according to the AP. Winds could reach 125 miles per hour, and landslides could compound the damage, the report notes.

Hi Mayo, so guess what. I really debated about sharing this here, but then I thought, you know, I actually think the wank is kind of funny. So I decided to anyway.

A few things!

Thursday, I'm going into the city to take my state boards. After that, it's time to go job-hunting and I've already got a few offers. One woman offered me--get this--a hundred bucks an hour to do house calls. I'm not sure yet if I can even take that one because of the hours. The least amount of money I've been offered or seen offered for a therapist is $35/hour. I live fairly close to the Hamptons so if I did do house calls by myself, I could even pull more than that.

But I'm not sure if that's what I want. I may actually take a job at the senior center or at a cancer center. Or maybe even both, part time. Who knows?

This is where getting fired from my godawful job over two years ago has led me, among other things. Every single day I am thankful for that. I recently read an article about a girl who got fired from her job because she was bitching about it online. She never mentioned the name of the place where she worked. She couldn't sue her ex boss, but she did go to the newspapers and cooked up a big scandal over it. The company looked really bad. I think sometimes that I should have done the same thing. But in the end, I didn't have the energy for it. I already know that my ex-boss has lost tons of business and many of his employees are unhappy. He's an unloved man. Yeah, guess I don't really have to do anything further.

So, hopefully, after my boards are over, I can start really helping people AND raking it in.

But that's not even what I'm truly excited about!

Do you know what happened to me recently, Mayo? Well, two things really. One is also directly related to the trajectory from this blog: losing that crappy job.

You may or may not know (you probably do,) that it's been like a 20+ year dream of mine to play Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing. Remember me always quoting her with Shakespeare Anon? The good old days.

Well as it happens, my clinic supervisor from last trimester saw me on FB quoting Beatrice just out of the blue (because HitRECord is doing a Shakespeare collab. It all ties in. ^_^ ) Said supervisoe then mentioned to me that he was part of a theater group here in my county, and they were thinking of performing Much Ado About Nothing over the summer, and goshdarnit, they were looking for a Beatrice.

So, YES. Directly resulting from coming here years ago, from losing my crappy job, from deciding to go to this specific school, and from having this one clinic supervisor, I am absolutely going to audition for the role, when it comes around.

I truly, truly stand amazed, and so thankful.

That is ALSO not the best thing, not yet! There's one more! ^_^

Shoot, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to post that twice. It said the comment was too large and that it didn't post, so I broke it up. Guess it did post after all.

ANYway.

I once again double-thought posting this, but it is too much fun not to share.

So, you know how I went crazy over Joseph Gordon-Levitt's hirRECord project and all, right, and the whole thing with the TIny Stories and, Mayo, did you know I finally got that Uncertainty Principle tattoo? Bet ya didn't. ^_^

Well, the Tiny Stories led to something else. Yeah, it was just a tiny story. But it made me grow a pair, and I started querying again for my novel. And guess what? AN AGENT ASKED FOR THE FULL MANUSCRIPT.

That doesn't mean I'm getting published or even have an agent yet! It just means that it's a C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER and that people are interested in my story. It means that soon enough, I will have an agent. "It's not a matter of luck, it's just a matter of time." ^_^

So in my ridiculous happiness and thankfulness, I recorded a Thank You to JGL and to some HitRECord friends. (That is my cousin's beautiful music in that clip. He's moving into the field of video game composing. :D ) And if you keep scrolling down in the comments, you can see Joe commenting to me on the video. Oh man, he is such a sweet and genuine person. :) (You have to click "remarks in conversation" and keep clicking "load more" over and over again because I got a lot of comments. ^_^ )

Yeah man, look at this freaking badass adorable GQMF wearing his hitRECord button on his billion dollar suit. WHOOP WHOOP! What a prince. JGL would so totally be a Porchie, haha. ^_^

Mayo, in short, I am happy.

Well, I had better go and study for Thursday. I'll be tons happier once that's out of the way.

But first. THANK YOU. Seriously, for the friendships, and even for the hatred that set me firmly on this ridiculous adventure.

Just, awesome. ^_^

4:33, what I am talking about is denial and erotiomania. Take a look at "some other blogs" and you will see people from here and other places being attacked for having this. What it really means is that when you believe that famous people are in love with you or friends with you when they are not and wouldn't know you from Adam.

Denial is when you can't see what is right before your eyes. Other blogs sill accuse Gerard Way of being on drugs. There is no proof of that. There is proof of their idol being on drugs though. No one wants to see it.

It is sad and pathetic. This is the behavior of denial and reflecting what you feel onto others.
