ZOMG. I recently found out there's a Wreck-It Ralph artbook. INSTA-BUY. When I get home and get my money.

And...yeah. I don't understand why there'd be such a large gap between releases. :/

I just bought that:

Yup, that's a mouse carpet. A real carpet, woven out of nylon threads, serving as a mouse pad. Comes in four different patterns. I chose "Manama".

Isn't it stylish?

So apparently morning lectures aren't for me anymore.
I fainted in the subway today. In the middle of the crowd. There was so many people, it all was so overcrowded, all the seats were taken and I had just one more station to go, so I was all in denial: "No I'm not feeling sick, I'm not going to faint here, just a little more..."
And the next thing I know my knees hurt and people are holding me, picking me up from the ground and finding me a seat and a bottle of water.
Ugh. I'm so embarrassed, but still...so grateful to them. Faith in humanity restored.
And right now I'm just sitting on the station, all thoughts of going to this damn lecture abandoned, just trying to breathe. And I'm writing it all here just to calm down, because I can't tell this to my friends and parents, I don't want to worry them.
It's actually not the first time I faint without any kind of damn reason. I'm so scared.
I also bit my finger pretty hard, thinking that the pain will distract me from the sickness, and now staring at this red mark frightens me even more.

:< ... are you alright?? :< ...
O: Well, everything in moderation. ^^ hard work is good, D: but take care of yourself. /Pat pats. It's alright to be scared :<. I mean I'd be too. Right now D: I think you just need a giant hug and someone to tell you ;A; everything will work out honey.

:< ... i'm sorry that you weren't feeling well and stuff. have you been eating well? Are you getting regular check ups? (LOL i sound like mommy) But seriously! These are important questions to ask yourself.

Not telling them will just make it worse (trust me >_<)... But it is up to you D:. </~

Perhaps just take a break and just find something to relax your mind and calm you down.=w= /pat pat. You seem to deserve one :D

My love goes to you and I hope you get better!!! <3 Good luck!~ <3

Thank you for the hugs and concern. I'm alright now, I got to my uni safely and had a cup of tea with muffin at our cafeteria.
I'm just this anemic girl with constant hypotensia and vegetovascular dystonia. There's nothing really wrong with me, we have check ups every year and stuff. I don't eat much in the morning because taking food that early only makes sick.
Sometimes this happens. Because of stress, because of lack of sleep, because there was big crowd and I couldn't breathe.

@Nimuell : I feel for you. I hope you are fine, and glad that people helped you up.
Maybe a cup of cocoa or juice in the morning will help? <:
I tend to faint in subway in the morning too. >:
Well sad for my case, no one helped me. I managed to walk out of the train, lay on the bench dead for whole half an hour ^^;
People just passed by without even taking a glance ugh...

don't force yourself, you should get some rest if you aren't feeling well!

@Nimuell
Hmm... If that happened close to me, I'd stick with you until you feel better.
I remember this kind of situation happening to a friend while doing sports activities in school and I did just that. I stayed with him and I got a note from the teacher for the next class. I waited for him to feel better then we arranged for his parents to pick him up since he really needed to rest for quite a while.
I guess in your case I'd carry you someplace you could rest and not just drop you on a random bench ^^'
Yeah... me overreacting.

Usually, carrying a girl would go like this in my case :
Girl : Carry me like a princess !
Me : No.
Girl : Come on ! Carry me !
Me : Heck no.
Girl : Please ? My foot hurts.. *puppy eyes*
Me : ...
Girl : Pleeease ?
Me : I'll carry you on my back.
Girl : No ! Carry me like a princess !
Me : ... You're just messing with me, aren't you ?
Hope that cheered you up :)
Just be careful, alright ?

@bunbun, that's horrible! :C
It's so...disheartening that people are like this these days.
I wasn't really expecting any help either and that's why I'm so shocked that complete strangers cared enough to pick me up. I regret I couldn't thank them though, because I was so out of it.
I usually have very sweet and very concentrated black tea in the morning, but we ran out of it and today I had green tea instead. Maybe that's the case, my originally low blood pressure got even lower? Or maybe, I don't know, just the crowd and lack of oxygen.
Anyway I'm home already and even if I still feel a bit weak, at least I'm safe.

@DeeKay, thank you, you are a sweet guy, aren't you?
I think it's a bit too much to expect from complete strangers hurrying to their work/study places in the morning. I'm already shaken that I got any help, and they even found me water! I really wish I could thank them. I even don't remember who it was, I only remember a girl asking if I was okay, when I was already sitting. The train got to the last station and by this time I felt already well enough to walk, and well, that was it. Now I'm home and I'll be sure to get a good rest.

Thank you all so much for listening to my problem. I was so scared and shocked, I just wanted to talk to somebody and I'm glad I wasn't alone.

Reminded me of an episode of "What would you do?", relevant part starts at about 3:30 (I suggest watching it all though, this program rocks)... I always cry watching this D:

=.= just like a junior of mine. I plied her with ginger beer, chocolate and the liquid breakfast things called Up&Go before half-dragging her back to her dorm (which was uphill...I don't know how I managed) and put her on strict bed rest for the rest of the day. I was in 'mum' mode. (and I'm only 22 @_@) I guess I'm too used to people fainting on me ^^;;(and I have low blood pressure so feeling woozy in the mornings is what I do best anyway)
hope you're well. I find chocolate and fruits and high sugar, high protein stuff work well on me. I don't know about you but that's the only thing I could suggest.

One of my friends got pregnant in late April. Because of her age and our school, she couldn't tell her family without getting kicked out. Only her real mother and a couple of our friends knew. Since then, we'd been helping take care of her, making sure she's healthy and going to the doctor. We all had to hide it from everyone else and make up excuses as to why she was getting sick and such. A couple of us were planning on living together next year for college and to help her take care of the baby so she wouldn't have to struggle being a single mother. Well, she miscarried yesterday. Months of caring and anticipating and excitement gone in an afternoon. When my friend called to tell me, I almost broke down. I still can't believe it. So, she's going through a pretty difficult time now and we're trying to ease her pain as best we can. She can't turn to her family or the father of the baby because she can't let them know. This baby was her life and finding out that she was dead was awful.

I have some stuff to say, so please forgive me if I somehow end up making a long post.

The current project I was working is dead. It was a team project that was born from scratch, and I ended up leading
a small group of very talented people. It was a new experience to me. I never found myself comfortable teaming up with
people, to such extend that I didn't even make my school homework on teams. It was to me such a long step to trust
in these people, but I thought it was worth the risk. I have a hard time opening myself to others, but in this case I really
felt good with how things were moving on.

Days ago, a conflict(Most likely workable) appeared, and things reached a hiatus. However, last night something much worst
came from someone I didn't expect to. An attitude that shattered the very bond this person said to consider precious.
I'm really sad, hurt and mad. So much feelings struggling between me right now because of this situation.
Maybe I trusted the wrong person. Maybe I wasn't cut to be leader to begin with. I don't really know. I can see the mistakes
I've done in the time we worked together, but what happened is something beyond my capacity to handle.
It'll most likely take me a long time to trust in someone else again.

Ironically, as this project reached an end, my personal problems were being solved, and my life and free time are slowly returning to normal.

I'm not sure on what to think about everything that happened. I'll probably take some time before working on something new.

Thanks for the space. I really needed to take this out of my chest.
