Some time ago a person asked me: “Why are you so sad and full of gloom?” Well, I replied, ” I don’t know.” Well I do know why I’m depressed. I just never really told anyone because I was scared. I was scared because, I didn’t want to hear all of the rumors, and false things about myself, and I didn’t want to have one of my regular anger bouts about how much I hate myself. But in that time since that encounter long ago, I have indeed learned about why I am so depressed. I still am learning how and why I got here, and where it is taking me, but since that time, I can tell you these things about why I’m depressed.

  1. Every chance I get, I blow it, making my self esteem go lower each day
  2. People avoid me. They just do.  That in itself is depressing
  3. Most people don’t care. I know that that is the hard truth, and other people go through it.
  4. People are just mean, I don’t know why, but it just makes me sick on the inside.

So, with this being said, do you think that you would be depressed too? Well, I am guessing yes.  When you look at it, this is a relocation of the things that have majorly happened so far.  Of course, this isn’t all of the things that went on, because If I told you all of that, your life will be over before I got done. Moving on from that, I will explain each of the notes from above.

First, Every chance that I get, I blow it. Really. It is like whenever I have a high chance of doing something good,I eater get overlooked, ridiculed, or just laughed at.  Not too long ago, their was a very large speech contest going on, and whoever got the highest marks in each writing class got a set amount of extra credit. Because I was in one of the top classes, I was most likely expected to get the top prize in my group. So, that is what I did, I set out for that prize and that credit. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t doing it for the extra credit, but I was doing it for the happiness of myself. So, on-top on my large workload I wrote that entire speech in about a week. When I had to read it to my class, they were basically stunned. I was in the  place for winning,  I could have took it all, but no.  When it was my turn to read on that day of the contest I just got so, nervous… that It didn’t work out. I didn’t even place in the top three,  but instead, I got beat out by some stupid jerk that wrote about working at his dad’s  fictional ice cream parlor.  Some work that I did,  When that was over,  I went outside, and ripped the whole file folder that my speech was in  and let it blow away.  I did a good job.

The next point is that people just avoid me. I dont even care that they are occipied, they just avoid me. It is like this to me, ” Hey, I’m going away and I’m not going to tell you when I’m back. I hope you have a great time dealing with your paranoia.” And that is  what I had to do for a year, a bloody year. Not to long ago, I had a very close friend that I always used to talk to. Things, were great, but just so far away, if you know what I mean. So, I’m where I’m at, and there are where their at. I still don’t know that if I’m insane for thinking this, but whenever I wanted to talk, they had to go. It was the not the ” Hey, I have to go for a bit, I’ll be back in 20 minutes” go, but the “Hey I’m leaving the house for 5 hours” go. To me this was a slap in the face, a kick in the bum and a knife to the heart. When I got around to talking to them about, 6 months later they had the nerve to say that they loved me, but at the same time called me cumbersome.  What kind of a friend is that? A friend that made me mad. Now, thanks to this, I’m more irrate, and prone to just getting angry. But don’t let that that fool you. I’m a nice person.

If I wanted to, I could interwind this into the other paragraph, but I don’t want to. This needs to stand out by itself. I know that I could say that people just don’t care, but I want a reason to go with this. My mom always told me that people don’t care about mostly anything these days, and they really don’t care for other people. I can understand why they are like that; I get that way too, and most of the time that I’m like this, I’m not having one of those “days.”  The way that the world and how everyone has treated me, I have a right to be mad about things. Heck, I have a right to be mad at every single person that I meet.  This is so because, I have to be afariad, because I could end up like I always have; heartbroken, angry and affarid.

Like the paragraph before that,  I could just make this all one hudge paragraph and let this be done. But I’m not going to do that.  So anyway.  people are just mean. Don’t think so?  Well look at all I have wrote so far. Is it true?  Yes, if It wasn’t why should I tell you these things?  Their is no reason right. And another thing, if people were nice to me, why  do I still have the feeling that I”m delusional, and being wached by someone? Exactly. Their was no need for it.

I wanted to get this in before I go to bed, so I’ll make it quick. I am in the planning stages of writing a little piece of something on my depression and how it effects me. I think that this will be a good way to get some of my feelings out and a good way to increase my RSI strains. I want to get this posted by the end of the week, but I dont think that will be happening, but if it does, please read it and give me some feadback on how I did. To spare your eyes, it will be done in two parts. Check back to read part one wich should be done by the end of this week.

-Thanks

Amy

I should have posted this one earler, but because I like firefox so much, I just wanted to let you know a little bit about it(I don’t want to go into great detail). Firefox is a rival web browser to internet explorer, it has all of the features of any standard issue opperating system browser with more control. Some things that make it stand out is the great ammount of features that can be fitted into it, like diffrent themes,tool bars,and search engines. (if you need more info, just go google firefox) Don’t forget! There is a world reccord that is going to be set today! If you would like to help out, please download!

How to Make a Duct Tape Wrist Band

from wikiHow – The How to Manual That You Can Edit
This article will show you how to make a duct tape version of the rubber wristband.

Steps

  1. Get out a roll of duct tape and cut a piece with enough length to wrap around your wrist, and leave about an inch extra.
  2. Cut a slot about half an inch long at the end of each end of the tape, so that when it is folded, the sticky side of the tape at each end will be exposed.
  3. Cut off one of the two slits off each end so it has one on each of the opposite ends.
  4. Fold in half, color facing up.
  5. Wrap it around your wrist, and using the sticky parts at the ends, stick it together.


Tips

  • Use colored duct tape to add style to your work.
  • Click on illustration to enlarge to read text.


Warnings

  • Don’t cut yourself with the scissors!
  • Don’t stick duck tape anywhere else.
  • Be careful removing the wristband.
  • It should not be so tight that you cannot slip a finger underneath it.
  • Don’t leave the wrist band on for extended periods of time, as it may irritate your skin.


Things You’ll Need

  • Duct Tape of any color
  • Scissors
  • (Optional) someone to help you put on the wristband

How to Make a Duct Tape Wallet

from wikiHow – The How to Manual That You Can Edit
Everybody needs a wallet, right? If you have a taste for the unconventional, or you’re simply a stubborn do-it-yourselfer, then whip out that roll of duct tape and make your own wallet!

Steps

  1. Rip a strip of tape at least 10.5 inches (215 mm) in length and place it sticky side up on your working surface.
  2. Rip a second piece of equal length and place sticky side down halfway over the first strip. Fold the rest of the strip facing up over the second strip.
  3. Flip over the two strips and place a third strip sticky side down covering the remaining sticky part of the second strip. Flip the sheet again and continue extending the size of the sheet until you’ve created a large sheet of duct tape that is 8.5 inches (215 mm) by 7 inches (175 mm).
  4. Trim all the

edges.

  1. Fold the wallet in half and tape 3 sides (bottom and two sides) to create a large pocket to hold bills.
  2. To create credit or business card pockets, make another sheet that’s 4 by 3.5 inches (100 mm by 90 mm).
  3. Fold 1.5 inches (40 mm) over. To create two more pockets, repeat the step above and then tape the two pieces together, taping the second pocket a little lower on top of the first piece.
  4. Tape the edges of the pockets and then tape the whole piece to the large pocket. To create another pocket, leave the inside part untaped.
  5. Make a sheet of tape (as in the first step) larger than your ID card. Cut the sheet so that there is a 5 mm frame (big enough so you can see your picture and info, but small enough so the ID can’t fall through the opening). Now trim the outside so it is slightly larger in all directions than your ID. Tape three sides of this window to the inside of your wallet, or on top of the credit card holder. It’ll take a some trial and error to get it right, but it will be a great addition to the wallet. When you’re done, the ID should be able to slide into the untaped side of the holder, and once in, not fall through the open window.
  6. Tape the completed pocket to the large pocket and again, you can create an extra pocket if you wish by leaving the inside part untaped.
  7. Put your money, ID, and cards in your wallet and go show off your new creation!


Tips

  • There are many ways to personalize this design. Some other ideas are coin pockets within the large bill pocket and placing flaps on the credit card holders so business cards don’t fall out when the wallet gets dropped.
  • Use a sheet protector and cut out a piece of the clear plastic to cover the open window over your ID
  • Index cards can be used to give it some structure. It also gives something for the duct tape to stick to. Of course, then it won’t be made of only duct tape.
  • Duct tape comes in colors too. Try out combinations, and find one you like.
  • If making a clear cover for a driver’s license, try using clear packing tape instead of sheet protectors if you want the entire wallet to be made out of tape.
  • If cutting the duct tape with scissors, it is easier to make large cuts rather than small cuts.
  • You can make a wallet latch with a little extra duct tape. Take a wide piece and fold it over to where no part is sticky. Do this again with a thinner, longer strip. Tape the bigger strip to where it will wrap all the way around the side of the wallet where you pull it open, and then the same with the thinner strip.
  • You can personalize the wallet by using clear duct tape too. Use photos that you like and place them on each side and then use the clear tape to seal them in. There are endless designs you can do to make the wallet completely personal.
  • If you are using a knife, a metal or metal edged ruler is best.
  • Try making them out of paper, cloth, fishnet, or painter’s tape (blue tape).
  • Black Tyvek tape is available in 2 and 4 inch widths from book binding suppliers for a nice low key look.
  • If you make the 8.5 X 7 inch duct tape sheet on aluminum foil the wallet will shield RFID credit cards.
  • Put butter or margarine on your scissors to make cutting the duct tape easier.


Warnings

  • Measure carefully. If anything is too small, it might not fit all of your money or cards and you’ll have to start all over. Make it bigger than you think it needs to be.
  • Be very careful with the blade, or use scissors!
  • Try to take it nice and slow, if you have any air bubbles in it,it ruins the look.


Things You’ll Need

  • Duct tape
  • Ruler
  • Knife or scissors
  • Piece of wood or cardboard
  • Colored Duct Tape (optional)
