I need advice now

Post Reply New Topic

Alright, so my internet was shut off this weekend and I couldn't get on or do any of my normal online chatter with people. So I played .Hack//Mutation and I, as I always do, compiled very large, neat, orderly charts and files about monsters/items/keywords/fields...

Now I am back at school and I want to scream. I can't be here I am freaking out... I think it is because I had gotten into a habit of being at least conversational with people online during my alone time and when I got TRUE alone time I really, really, really, really liked it. Now I am stuck in this stupid bright school and I have considered more than once just dropping out.

Any managing suggestions?

Worse yet, I had planned my classes so I had math from 10:30 to 12 in room 206, and then sociology at 1-3 in the same room, my plan was that I would be all alone for that hour since most people hang out with friends... Well... Since I usually sit in here now more and more people are coming in every day and I can't be alone now. I really just want to be alone.

Why will no one help me?!

Mikhaillost,
it will not be that people do not want to help self,am think there are very few users on WP who are like that-most support by giving their ideas and experiences,as well as get support themselves when they need it.
Users usually do not reply unless they have something that may benefit another,which is probably more respect than replying with something random that will not help at all,so please don't take it personally,it's probably that the users that can relate to that problem or give ideas have not come online yet.

Am not sure on the problem,but do get any allowances from the school? such as being given a spare class room at lunch to be on own? if do not,maybe it would be worth asking for.

I relate.

I couldn't find much personal space at school either.
I honestly believe that quiet reflective areas or retreats should be included in school building designs for the benefit of students who need space and quiet to recharge.

One of the places where I studied did have a silent cubicle room though.

Perhaps there's something similar where you are or perhaps a library or quiet study corner?

One thing that used to puzzle me was why other people couldn't keep quiet or on task in those designated areas. Many seemed to lack self control and nattered away.

Utterly baffling.

Dropping out of school is always a very bad idea - you pay for it for your lifetime!

What happens with you in school will very likely happen with you later in life. You should try to see it as double teaching: On the one site the lectures of the school on the other side to learn to handle this extra sensations. You will need the later skill even more often than what you learned in class room.

aha! ..By all means, do finish high school, and perhaps college too. But know this dear Mikhaillost --it sounds very much like you may have the heart and soul of a recluse and should begin planning now for a life of hermitude...or at least consider it.. Not all the gold in the world, nor anything else, could possibly be worth how we hermits cherish our alone time. We are the universe's solitary monks and we require our kind of worship...It is what nourishes and sustains us.

Without it, we would cease to exist.

I am already in college... Glad I finished highschool-

And I plan on being a hermit. My goal is to get my career (which is a very much alone job) and build an underground house. I never want to marry or have kids.

Have you tried talking to someone, like a teacher or school counselor who might be able to arrange something for you? Or could you wear headphones or something? (If you're not allowed, you could always try to hide ear buds.)

Maybe you could try headphones. You might want music playing so you really can't hear everyone, but headphones generally tells people you don't want to be bothered. Make it obvious though, not like the cell phone blue tooth things that nobody realizes is there. Books are good too, but most people are stupid enough to interrupt you when you are reading because most people don't read anything more difficult than People Magazine to realize you might be reading something that requires your attention without interruption. And, some people are so clingy that they ignore all body language and verbal language you may dish out showing that you are busy and don't want to be interrupted that your only option with them is to hide from them.

I always just went out to my car in college for my alone time. Maybe that's why I was always obsessed with having a car. I can't stand to be without one, like if it's at the mechanic. It's my escape from the house, social situations, places I don't want to be, etc. I don't get too drunk where I can't drive most the time because I like the option of driving away whenever I feel like it. And guess what I drive... a Ford Escape. I named her Eh sco pay (like how Dori pronounced Escape in Finding Nemo), and she's my horse. And, anytime a song plays on the radio with Escape in it (like Beddingfield's Pocket Full of Sunshine or that one Gwen Stefani did Sweet Escape), I turn it up because it has my car in it. I know, I'm such a nerd.

Anyway, you might find the library to be good too because you are not allowed to talk to people there. And, you don't have to read to sit at the library. I've seen students napping the library before.

next year i plan on starting on an underground house...

I am designing mine in CAD, but I don't have the money or assets to get the money until I start into my career.

^ what program are you in or majoring in at college?

I am in Allied Medical professions... Gonna be a pathologist

I like 3D design though, it comes very easy to me.

I hope being a doctor will get me enough money to design my house. I am using cad to estimate the amount of supplies I will need so I can estimate price

I used AutoCAD in the military. Not enough experience to do a house, but I'd like to design my own and have someone else draw up all the plans someday when I can afford it. I've decided I want an indoor shooting range in my house for my husband's sake. It will take some thinking on my part how I want to do that, but if I sound proof the room anyway for that, it could also be a recording studio (for my husband too). If I did two stories, I would want certain strange things too, but I think I really want a ranch style home. My Godfather has a nice ranch. It's huge, but I think one story makes the most sense for retirement purposes, and if I were to give the house to my kids when my hubby and I die, and if they were to keep it, I would want it to be safe for them to have babies in. (Stairs scare me around infants and toddlers...I must of fallen down some at a young age maybe).

now I watched a video on yahoo's links to other news sources about this family in Missouri who built a house in a cave. The guy said something like, "we could only afford to build one wall, so we used the cave for the other three." The house was beautiful, and they almost had to sell it, but it makes you think of the benefits of it.

Either way, if you do two stories, for sure, the laundry chute. And, maybe, got the idea off a Murphy Brown show, a fireman's pole so you don't have to go down stairs all the time
