Psychology - November 2006

At work, I'm responsible for ensuring the backup of systems. But something happened at work that caused my attention to be divided, and I forgot to complete the backup of one system. I work with hot-headed people who have bad tempers and as a result I feel guilty and stupid for what I did (or, in this case, what I didn't do). I can't seem to think of this situation in a different light; how can I make myself feel better?

When I was about 11, year 2000 (now 17) I moved to a bad place, met two of the wrong people and they started me on marijuana. The three of us became best friends. One of them started earlier and had a big time supplier and we stayed high all the time. We stuffed and smoked abot 5 blunts (swisher sweets) every day. We never ran out and none of us had to pay. We are no longer friends.

So I was a heavy smoker for about 4 years (until 2004) when I quit. I was 15. I was already enduring so much pain beacacuse I moved to the US from Ethiopia with my dad and I was ripped from my mother, siblings and friends at 9.

I started getting better since I quit but I feel like I lost my soul. I feel so empty, I forgot everything about my past time. The loss of my memories is what hurts me most. I feel lifeless souless. Sometimes I wonder if I am really alive. But it seems like I do a good job at covering up my true state of mind.

I just want my life back, my memories, my sanity.

"What people would think stupid, others would think deeper"
Do you think I should change some words. Here's what it means... It means whoever thinks something is stupid, there would be somebody else who would have another idea to it. I thought of it when my stepdad started to say how show's like Wife Swap, Deal or No Deal, or whatever cartoon is stupid and pointless. He works for NASA. But me, I think some of them are very psychological like Wifeswap which is like a reaction like chemicals but with people. And other people have to make a living. Anyways I'm no expert but what do you feel about the quote. Is it good enough or does it need fixing. Or how do you feel about what it means?

Ok, I know that people will tell you that when you are trying to accomplish a goal that you would procrastinate about, you should reward yourself with something you would like to do. Yeeah,...that doesn't work for me. For example, I love to get massages, but if I tell myself that if I study for an hour I get a massage, I'll just say "to hell with it" and ditch studying for the massage. Then I'll just kick myself about it when I fail a test, or end up not turning in a homework assignment. I love to take care of my home. I want to be consistant with a routine for cleaning and organizing, but I never keep up with it. For example, I want to get a head start on cleaning, so that I can start cooking early for Thanksgiving, instead of doing it all at the last minute (especially since I left a mountain of dishes last night). It's 1:45am and I still haven't done a thing. But, you can bet I'm sitting here beating myself up about. What is that?!

When people get drunk, they lose their inhibitions. Some drunks are "goofy drunks", while others wanna fight with the first person that they see. Basically, their true colors shine through. I've noticed the same thing for older people. Throughout life, we develop various inhibitions which are deemed appropriate for social interactions and being in public in general. However, a lot of older people seem to lose those inhibitions. So many older people are mean, while others are really nice. In general, many elderly people say whatever they feel like saying without considering the consequences. Others drive recklessly (which is not to be mistaken for vision problems). Sometimes we are so quick to forgive and overlook the behavior of older people because "They're old ... they can't help it.", but I'm beginning to think that the way that these people were really bad all along, and now it's just more apparent. What are your thoughts on this subject?
