The Mixed Feelings Thread

Postby Anoria » Sat Jan 31, 2009 2:49 am

For when you can't decide whether you're happy or depressed.

For example: After excessive charging from fourth-flatmate's truck, AJ's car finally started tonight. This is wonderful news, because we thought there were more serious problems than a dead battery afoot, and it turns out it was just a really dead battery. (The power locks started working again after about two minutes of charging.)
Bad news: that means AJ is gone this weekend. Mostly this means that I'll get time to play my video games and do homework and have time to myself, but it also means that I'll be doing some thorough third-wheeling if fourth-flatmate brings his girlfriend over (though I heart them both) and I won't get cuddles. Or like... y'know... deep intellectual conversation 'n' stuff.
Hey baby, what's your callsign?

I can't decide whether to be happy about the snow, because i have a feeling that it would mean that there would be snow but i wouldn't be able to enjoy it as i would be forced to my school which would inevitably be the only school open...

I have something in particular that I do that I have mixed feelings about. When I meet people and know them for a while I start to form ideas about why I think they behave the way they do. I often feel that this is somewhat wrong to do and that I over simplify reasons people have for acting a certain way, yet I can't keep myself from doing it. I don't know if it's normal or not.

i just went to the first going away party of my graduating year. it's sad. but the host got into grad school so i'll be seeing her in china in a few months, so really it's not like it's anything different than leaving for summer vacation.

but the prospect of more going away parties is sad.

I have mixed feelings about the new look of the Pub.

I really don't want to study and I can't concentrate on it, and yet I'm nervous like mad about my exams so I can't do much else without "Study!" popping into my head.

...I'll go shower.

Patricia just moved out. I helped her carry her blankets and dishes and the pictures from her desk.

Yay space, yay privacy...

Boo best friend and roommate of four years gone. We said we'll hang out but that barely happened while she was living here, I wonder how it'll go when it's actually effort to get together. Hopefully she'll have more time for everyone now that school's out.
The room looks very empty. Even though she left her Beatles and Rolling Stones posters above her bed so that the walls don't stay absolutely bare while I procrastinate decorating.

maybe the (short) distance will improve the quality of your relationship?

I hope so. The last time I became geographically distant from my best friend, after graduation when she and I went to different universities (both within-state, she's closer to home than I am)... well, it's been four years and I can count the times we've seen each other on one hand. So we'll see how this goes.

There's a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious—makes you so sick at heart—that you can't take part. You can't even passively take part. And you've got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you've got to make it stop. And you've got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you're free, the machine will be prevented from working at all

No way, I had to google to make sure you weren't joking.

...maybe it's a hoax, and he'll ask Betty and the publishers will say "SURPRISE, we really aren't as morally reprehensible as you believed us to be when we said he was marrying the spoilt rich girl over Betty, what kind of people do you think we are? lol"

That or he's totally secretly gay for Jughead.

Always neat and well-dressed, and don't seem to have a steady girlfriend? He is SO gay.....

I hope Jughead gets up with Betty. He would be more fun to hang with anyway. Archie is WAY too straight....

At the least, Jughead is gay for him (although I don't see why when that sexybeast, Reggie, is around).

Look at the longing grief on his face:
