Hello my friends and fellow myLotters... I'm a little burned out from all my activities. So I'm raising this discussion right now to let off some stress. I'm inviting you guys to share anything, we can talk about anything you want. I would like this discussion to be more of a conversation between friends. So please feel free to share anything. I will come back in a day or two to check this discussion, I will definitely comment on your responses. So there... Hope we can talk about interesting things. Problems are okay too, if there's anything I can help with or you just need someone to talk to, I can be there for you.

when i am burned out it is really nice to talk about what you are when you are a child. it is fun to think how naugthy we are when we were kids and it always makes us smile when we look at those pictures. what are you like when you are a kid selece? are you makulit? or are you an obedient kid? do you always love to go outside and play under the sun?

first, i want to tell you that i am a girl. a lot of myloter mistaken me to a boy. i am a home body person, i love crafts. i also love cooking and always go with my mom when she will go at the market. i love singing and dancing so i spend my time singing and dancing at home. i am sometimes makulit, i think that is natural when you are still young.

Hello! I think its a good topic. I am makulit but doesnt talk too much sometimes. Hehe! I am obedient and very caring about what my parents told me. And yes, I love playing under the sun, sometimes literally that I got dark complexion at one point in time. Hehe. How about you?

Hi selece my very dear friend, so good to see you here as usual. Sorry that you are feeling so burned out, right now from all of your activitys and all. I know that life can get rough for us at times when we have a lot to do seems we really do not know if we are coming or going at times!!By the way how is your mother doing? I sure hope she is feeling much better now.She is still in my prayers.I am very sorry but I do not have any interesting things to talk about, you know I am disabled and do not work, so I am around the house most of the time, rather boreing really. My daughter, son-in-law and granddaughter did move in with me for awhile, until they can find an apartment to live in, they have been here for about 3 weeks now. I took my granddaughter school-cloths shopping today.She is 10 years old, and the love of my life.I do really like having her around.I am also trying to plan a trip with my sister to go visit my home town for the first part of August to visit my Mother, I miss her so much, Have not been there in 2 years. It is 1000 miles away.I want to go very bad, but can not drive it by myself, and gas prices are so high, can hardly afford it too. Beep your fingers crossed that I can get there..God Bless.

Hello my dear friend! Good to see you too! Ah yes, life can be so rough sometimes. Umm, my mother's doing pretty well! She can work again now, I drive her to their office most of the time. Thanks for asking and thanks for the prayers! Wow, it's good to know that you have the, around the house. It makes things more lively. I bet she's a nice granddaughter because she has someone like you. She loves hanging around with you too. Hope your plan get to visit your mother pushes through soon. Maybe somoene can drive for you instead? Gas prices are really high, we barely use our car now. Huhu. Only during mornings when I drive my mom to the office like I said earlier. I pray you'd get there, and if you do have a safe trip! God bless!

Hi selece. I just wanted to say I've been thinking about you my friend. How are the studies going? I'm sorry to hear that you are burned out on things right now. Things will get better, they always do.
I am just hanging out talking to my friends in between doctors visits and keeping my spirits up. Lets dance under the moon tonight and wish upon a star. To heck with the rain, I enjoy that too. If it falls let it. We will dance through the night. So put on your dancing shoes my friend or be barefoot like me, lol...

Hello dear friend! Ugh, the school stuff is killing me! Especially our newspaper! We're doing the layout by ourselves. Hehe. First time in years of our publication history that we do our own layout. I'd love to dance with you! Hehe! I'd prefer barefoot too! LOL. Hehe! And I love the rain! Weeee! That would be refreshing!

hi selece happen to have a handy job for a computer
programmer on hand,my son just informed me that he
has lost his job and has to go hunting another one'
really quick.he will get unemployment payments but
we will need him to get a job really soon as the rent
here is outrageous. I am really concerned, I do think
with allthe experience he has that he can get another
job pretty quickly but wish he had told me earlier this
week before I spent so much on groceries.lol I amsure we
will be okay but as any elderly woman I am concerned.

Hello my friend! Hmm... well, here in our country I could probably ask some of my peers. But since we are in different countries, the only thing I can help with would probably internet-based jobs, which sadly, I do not have anything to offer you with. Sorry. I am hoping that he can get another job quickly like what you said. Well, groceries can be pretty costly sometimes hehe! We have spent quite a lot too yesterday. I bought a lot of food, mostly snacks and drinks since they are quite a handful when I am working in front of the pc. Hehe!

Umm... Hello Gelisa1! I think there pretty much isn"t an age requirement. Here in our country it is usual around on our 3rd year and 4th year of high school life. So it does not matter what age as long as you are on that year. And of course we have to be on that average age for the situation, not too young or not too old. Hehe.

Oh! I am a music lover and I play the guitar and the piano too. Hello guys! Cool! It's nice to have fellow music lovers around! I guess it's even cooler to have talented musicians around you. Although I don't actually remember all of those you mentioned, I bet they're pretty good!

Cool, a free for all. Let's see..today has been kind of boring so far here. I'm tired, but I'm always tired, lol. My back really hurts too. And I'm upset because my birthday is looming over me like a dark cloud. By the way, my birthday's on Thursday. And I'm not looking forward to that day at all.

Have a take on this: This morning I was listening to my favorite Fm station-then the presenter put this question to the listers-"What would you tell your wife in self defence, should she find you stack naked on a bed with another woman in one room?" Then one listener responded that he would tell her he and this unknown woman accidentally fell in a sewerage tunnel and the rescue police team decided to remove all their stinky clothes, and that they were put in an observation room in bed waiting for a Doctor to study their skins for any signs of infections including stds that could have got them during the contact with sewer waste liquids! I thought this was a very clever response from a witty adulterer!LOL!

oh LoL! That was a good one! Hehe. That was a clever alibi. But why did they have to stay in bed and not end up at the hospital hehe! I wonder how the wife would react if she was given that answer. Hehe. What do you think? Thanks for sharing! I got amused. Hehe. A clever adulterer indeed! Hehe!

Hello selece :-) thank you for the invitation. I appreciate it as I am also bored this afternoon and want a little distraction. Anyway, this is probably just PMS (pre menstrual syndrome) because I am quite depressed and easily irritated these days. Me and my boyfriend had a fight and I cried last night and now m eyes is quite swollen but he had apologized and I forgave him and I said sorry too and he forgave me. Things seem back to normal and I’ll be seeing him tonight but I am still feeling little down. Hope we will be able to settle pour differences and not fight anymore as I hate this feeling.

Hello! You're welcome. Please feel free to look around, including other people's responses, they're really amusing. Really nice. Sorry to hear about the fight, I hope you do settle the issue soon,and hope he makes up, asking forgiveness isn't complete until one makes a necessary action to change of make up for the mistake. Hope you are okay! Please take care of yourself!

Anything? Hmm.. Have you watched the latest episode of Bleach or read the latest chapter? What do you think of it?
I personally do not enjoy the current arc in the anime. I hope they go back to the fightings in Hueco Mundo soon.
If you feel stress, do watch some anime. It will help to relieve some stress.

I do know bleach but I haven't watched a lot of episodes yet. Hehe. I've watched the movie though and know a little details of the story. I do watch anime, in fact, I've been this way ever since i was young. Hehe. I enjoy the story and the action. Hehe. Recently, I've finished Prince of Tennis and Ouran High School, know those anime?

Hie Selece, I just noticed that you hit over the 500th mark ....that's great, " Congratulations!" Hope you having a wonderful day.
It's my day off to day and as usual was preoccupied with work lately, didn't have much thoughts or ideas to post..lol.
But I managed to be good with Mylot and do some postings although MyLOT has not been that good to me lately - my responses got lost after I posted them and had to re sign in couple of times. So I do hope this response do get through.
I am not sure lately, since when they started timing the period of time spent for responding...mmmmm..
Do you encounter that? I have seen other mylotters posted this as topic of discussion.
Sometimes I got fed up of it and I left the topic unresponded. Guess when I do reach the 500th mark, I will get to copy & paste and it wouldn't be that bad then.
It is so good that you could do that...huh
Will see what you would come up with..lol
Cheers and have fun when you are back.

Ahh yes! Hehe! I'm happy about it! Hehe. Thank you so much, dear friend. Aw, I think something's wrong with myLot today, I get logged out after each response or comment I post. Have experienced the same thing! Ugh! You'll get there eventually, took me quite some time to get here too since I was inactive for quite some time. Good thing I have time to spare again now, I'm just so glad! Hehe! I spend my spare time here. LoL.

Umm... I'm qualified to help with general issues in life? Haha. Maybe because I'm a good listener and I can give advices when asked for them. But here in myLot we read and not listen. LoL. I'm into music and technology. Caregiver? How is it like to be one? 5 times? Wonder what went wrong? Hehe. But that's okay as long as you're happy with what you have.

i cared for the elderly. i liked it very much most of the time. once they like you, you get a lot of perks, extras, and they pay you well if they like you. there was a few tough times like if i had to lift them or clean up poo, but when they liked me above any others, i realised i'd found my nick in life.

Hello! A bad case of insomnia? Hmmm... I wonder why you're having a hard time sleeping, because people tend to get sleepy when their eyes are tired. Of course closing your eyes is the first thing to do, then probably think of good memories or interesting topics on your mind. Eventually you'll fall asleep, without noticing it, you'll get sleepy. That's what I do, I am an insomniac sometimes. Although too much thinking can also make you sleepless. So balance is needed. You can also try listening to soft music. Hehe. Hope these works for you, they are actually based from my own experiences only.
