Im baaaaaccckkkk!
What is success? If I compare myself to school friends I have achieved so much. If I compare to people I went to university with probably upper middle. However if I compare to my own standards I am a failure.

I'm sort of at a loss for words, I don't know how to comment on the totality of your post. So I will limit myself to what I can speak about.
Networking is not bad just carry a few cards and when you meet someone who YOU can help tell them to contact you. When you meet someone who COULD help you get their info; follow up with an email say nice to meet you blah blah blah. Keep in contact letting them know how YOU are doing.
Hard work and proving yourself needs to include advertising yourself and your successes. Finding a cure cancer is useless if no one knew it. Sell yourself you are a great product.
BTW where in East Africa is your dad?

Long story short....

i'm still struggling to accept that she's most likely not like i thought she was. or maybe she really is and i just don't fit into her life anymore. i'm searching for excuses cause i don't want to see her in a bad light, but reality is different it seems.
shanedoe:
definitely! and yes, i make excuses for her all the time, yet i also blame her for no reason sometimes... i'm weird.
that's the question, does she love me (as a friend)? she shouldn't act like she does if she was a friend and didn't lie about how close we were.

So you are still alive. I had heard a rumor of a UK based monster that devoured attractive women with back problems and was worried about you. I am glad to see you are still around.
I hope that the back problems have either been repaired or at least made bearable.
So how is the world treating you these days?

DO NOT LET ANYONE FUCK WITH YOU BACK!!!!! I know too many people who have regretted having surgery for their back. I assume you have gone the exercise, stretching, and massage route. Have any of them alone or in combination helped? How long are you immobile when you get an attack?
I really feel very very bad for you.
Nothing too exciting in my life. I am still unemployed oops semi-retired - it sounds so much better. The routine of unemployment is at best boring but I keep myself amused. The dogs and I walk, hangout in front of our apartment building; me smoking my pipe, getting pets and kisses from passerby's, and they read. Or something like that. I send out a few resumes or what I call "ignore my emails with attachments." One needs to keep a sense of humor.
Show up more often to SG just so I know you are still alive. Let me know when you next plan to be in NYC.

How on earth did you hurt yourself? How long ago did it happen and why did it take so long to control the pain? No one should need to suffer from pain with all the meds that the phara industry has developed.
I am glad that you are back on SG and was wondering where and how you were doing. Have you planned another trip to NY?

oooh how exciting, I got to DJ and host at the hellfire festival! I met an amazing guy from the band anterior they are awsome. He said something to me that made me reflect......its something that has always been said to me.

Hey, just wanted to say good luck. My membership's expiring on this site tomorrow, and I remember enjoying talking (well, typing) to you.
I've said it before, but try and not worry about other peoples opinions of you. If you're comfortable with who you are, then to hell with everyone else.
Take care honey.

I can only tell you that from what you write you are bright, from your pictures you are gorgeous, and you are surrounded by too many idiots. Don't change the first two and lose as many of the idiots as possible and those that you cannot limit the amount of time you spend around them.
I send a hug.

To be honest, being back in the rat race sucks. I've been back a week, and although it's good to see certain people again and to finally eat some meat (2 weeks on a vegetarian diet almost drove me insane, did lose a few inches around my waist though), I wish I'd have just stayed out there, even if it's just for a few more days.
Little adventures are great (although I have no idea what lindy hop actually is
), when you say rock climbing, do you mean dry walls or actual outside climbing? Either way, how'd you enjoy it?
If you don't mind me asking, are you originally from Uganda, or did you move out there then end up in the UK? (I'm assuming here that your profile info is accurate). Kenya was cool though, the people I met were really friendly (even the guys at the airport in Mombasa carrying assault rifles had smiles on their faces... which, to be honest, was a little disconcerting) and it's such a chilled out place it's great.
So what's the next adventure you've got planned out? I'm thinking save up a little money then pick a random island, book a flight and go dive it

I have had an epiphany!!! its so exciting!!!!
The reason i spend a lot of time unhappy is because i save lifes excitement to be shared with boys...i seek out exciting dates when im seeing someone. Therefore the only thing i have to look forward to is boys....how unreliable. So 2009 is the year for adventures if friends wanna go through em with me they...

And I'm back in the country
Kenya and the marine conservation work was amazing, on the way to the airport I seriously considered slipping the driver some extra cash and getting him to turn the taxi around and take me back.
Instead, I'm going to keep in touch with the people I met out there, most of them are travelling around Africa for a bit and at least one is looking to stay and get work out there. If she does, I'm going to visit her (hopefully it'll be working as a diving instructor so I can go diving with her).
What's your idea of an adventure and have you had any interesting one's in the last couple of weeks?

Congrats on the moment of realization. I'm aim'ing to do the same, but from the other angle (I'd been waiting for girls so I could find adventures). May we both (and others too, I guess) have an exciting and productive year
Drowning in a shallow reservoir of my dreams and expectations an ache that cannot be healed by the strangers that surround me, Im supposed to know them but they dont know me.

haha i often need a good old boot in the ass!

I think we all do at times. The problem that we face is that we rarely have anyone around us that cares enough and feels confident enough in their relationship with us to do it.
And sometimes we just need a person to ask the right question. Instead of saying, "Oh that's horrible" or "I'm sorry to hear that", they need to be asking us "So, what are you going to do about it?".
Someone who is caring, understanding, and does NOT wear steel-toes boots. Cuz those freakin hurt when you get booted in the ass.
