(( It is helping, it really is, I just hope I’m not bothering you with all this. You just seem like such a smart and responsible person, and you always give so great advice. But I guess I should rest now, I haven’t really slept all night and it’s already 8:05 am. – 3 ))

((Yeah, take it easy. It’s midnight for me here so I should head to bed. If you’d like, I’d like to hear how everything goes. Even if you take one step, that’d be awesome.

Take care.

(( Alright, I’ll try. But I somehow feel scared. Not because of the school counselor thing, but because of my guardian. They’re nice, very nice in fact. They never yell or treat me badly but I still feel scared that they might be mad at me or yell anyway.. – 3 ))

((If you need to, having your counselor talk to your guardian with you might make it easier. I don’t think you’re guardian will yell at you either, but having another adult there who knows a bit about your situation might help out a lot. It is scary, but your counselor and your guardian are there to help you. Try to remember that, okay?

I suggest writing it down on a piece of paper and posting it next to your bed or your desk or wherever you spend the most time. Seeing it multiple times might help make you feel better about it.

Again, I sincerely hope that this is helping.

(( Hey… its me again… my guardian went off to work about 30 minutes ago and I just texted them that i’m not feeling well… I still feel bad tho, I know they won’t yell at me but I still feel like such a disappointment.. mostly because I already missed the entire last week and monday…. – 3 ))

((I know that this will sound weird, but you’re not lying by saying you’re not feeling well. I still think you should talk to your school counselor about why you don’t feel like going to school, but since it has gone on for a week I also wonder if you need to see your doctor.

I want you to know that I understand  how difficult school can be sometimes – especially when you’re under-medicated as was my case. That’s why I think you should see a doctor and see if your brain is lacking in some important chemicals.

You’re not a disappointment – you’re just unwell, and that’s not your fault. Maybe during the day you can try to get in touch with your school counselor on the phone? I mean, if school is hard to go to at this point, then this might be easier.

I hope this helps, I really do. I want you to take care of yourself, okay?

Things I have learned since becoming an Adult™

-don’t tell ur coworkers jack shit. You might think they’re your friends but they will sell you out for a paperclip
-everything men tell you is a lie
-store brand vanilla ice cream is better than name brand
-pregnancy tests from the dollar store work just as well as $20 ones
-don’t lie to your doctor
-seriously don’t
-at some point your card will get declined for $6 and nobody but you will care. It happens to everyone at some point in their life
-you will become bffs with your mom (unless she’s a mean person, then skip this one)
-you’ll wish you took the advice adults gave you when you were younger, even though it annoyed you at the time
-people you went to high school with will become teachers, doctors, etc but they will still do drugs and it will be weird. That’s life, my dude
-never underestimate the power of new underwear

The second last one though

My Fingers Slipped @partyplanningforsuckers The heat only seemed to be packed in at the circus, with the hundreds of citizens that had swarmed like ants and the intense rides that seemed to have a life of their own. The smell of sugary cotton candy and popcorn was enough to lure anyone who had just come from a days work, the circus was the place to be. With a circle of sand and tigers, along with swinging trapeze and double jointed dancers, the main stage was selling ticket for such a view.

Carlos hadn’t been to a circus in years – not since he was little. But there had been a raffle at work and Carlos had won a coupon for a free ticket. He kinda hoped that his brother and/or his dad were in town so he could invite them to go with him.

Carlos made his way to the ticket office that was set up, standing in the line with his coupon as he looked at everything around him. Some things were different than what he remembered or imagined a circus to be like, but not everything could be a dated cliche trope he supposed.

Once at the ticket office he smiled and offered the coupon. “Hey… this any good?” he asked in a joking manner.

So
with that, the other gave a smile and went off to give a lengthy call
to the man he had meant to cancel plans with. He couldn’t have felt
cheaper as he called in and tapped his foot against the wall, he blushed
in embarrassment as he did so. Watching the other scientists made him
hungry just thinking about dinner.

Carlos went to his meeting with the Literal Rock Band and they discussed, among other things, the band’s habit of eating on stage. He wasn’t sure how they managed it, but chicken bones and soda cans would be left on the stage by them and the hosts at the theaters weren’t very happy about it. If they wanted to keep going with their gigs, they needed to clean up their act. Literally. They were young rocks, but Carlos thought that he was getting through to them.
