    Post Whatever You Are Thinking At This Very Moment

    I thought I'd pop my head in as not been here in ages, but I've realised I barely recognise anyone posting anymore :coldsweat: Any of the old guard (I joined in 2009 or thereabouts) still around?

    I went on my first ever date with a woman the other day. Long story, but I recently realised I'm most probably bisexual so my previously monogamous relationship is now an open one. After nearly two years with my boyfriend I'd forgotten how nerve-wracking and confusing dating can be! Especially...

    A month ago I got let go from a job for the second time in 2015 and still haven't managed to find another one. I got my degree last year so basically I feel like a massive f***ing broken failure for being able to do that but not hold down a job so I can support myself. I'm just shit at the...

    I've been wasting some time tonight reading back on my old posts here (as in from when I first joined in '09/'10) and oh my Jesus I am cringing so much...especially at my clumsy 16-year-old attempts at internet flirting. :o I was such an embarrassingly awkward teenager. :p

    I was just told by a (female) friend that the reason I didn't get the job I interviewed for last week was probably because "they're looking for guys for that kind of role". I just...I have no f***ing words. Bearing in mind that she knows nothing about the job and that in fact the reason I was...

    People on social media get increasingly annoying over Christmas. SO many selfies of 21-year-old couples who have been together not even six f***ing months with captions like "OMG he's my world couldn't live without u babe <3 xx". Don't get me wrong, I love my boyfriend, but I find the idea of...

    It's my first week of actually having a job in 3 years and trying to adjust to the routine is pretty hard. All my shifts this week are evening ones so at least I don't have to get up early, but I'm working consecutive days next week with one day finishing at 10pm and the next starting at 10am...

    I've spent a lot of today reading about the Ebola epidemic in West Africa in order to "educate myself about current affairs" and have managed to scare myself silly into obsessing over the (probably unlikely, touch wood) possibility that it could come over to the UK via air and I'm going to catch...

    Thanks Peter, fingers crossed. :) I'm running out of money so if something doesn't come up soon it'll be down the jobcentre for me!

    Job-seeking is an unrelentingly crappy process. I may be graduating with a first, but that seems hugely futile when even McDonalds don't want me and I've not had a single interview to any of the 40+ jobs I've applied to this year.

    I probably could but I don't want to seem rude or risk the neighbour situation being even more awkward. I'll say something if he keeps it up though cos I really don't like the thought that people see me as some kind of shut-in just because I like my own space.

    Luckily we only really share a laundry room and corridor so our living spaces are totally separate but it'd be nice not to feel pressured and on edge about it. Everyone else in my block seems nice but generally minds their own business unless approached which is vastly preferable.

    I need a little self-indulgent rant. The guy who lives in the flat next to mine is perfectly nice and well-meaning but hugely overbearing. He keeps asking me out for drinks with his friends, none of whom I know, and him, who I've only spoken to when we've crossed paths in the corridor or laundry...

    I'm trying to write a blog post reviewing World Peace is None of Your Business track-by-track, but writing about something so aural and abstract and trying to evoke it is so unbelievably hard.

    I've only made it up to 'I'm Not A Man' so far but yeah, completely agree about the theatricality of it. This is so f***ing good already.

    I'm currently in the process of packing and cleaning to move into my new flat next week and I've only just realised how much unnecessary crap I own. My new place is a tiny one-room studio so I'm kind of looking forward to downsizing and out of necessity only owning stuff I actually...

    I officially finished uni yesterday. Everyone else is fawning over how awesome the past three years have been on fb/twitter but I'm just...meh. I'm staying in the same city which I think is probably keeping me immune to the emotional stuff, plus I haven't gotten enormously close to anyone while...

    My housemate is throwing a screechy tantrum in the next room and it's all I can do not to go in and chuck her phone out the window. Living on my own is going to be so f***ing sweet after this- 6 years of boarding, 1 year of uni accommodation and 2 years of living with people who refuse to pipe...

    Re: it should go without saying, but in case it doesn't After months and months of panicking about where I'm going to live after I've finished uni, my parents have agreed to help me out with rent and I have an email back from a landlord offering me a viewing! It's early early days but I am...

    My housemate is shouting down the phone to her boyfriend in the next room and driving me up the wall. I could swear this house is cursed because both years I've lived here there's been one other relatively ok person, and one dickhead who either makes my life hell and treats me like dirt (last...
