[QUOTE=Cpn Crunch21;27362601]i used to play snare, i was average but there wasnt a separate class for good kids or bad. That really sucks, have you tried talking to the teacher after class? Thats the only way i can think of fixing this kind of thing.[/QUOTE]
But than that means the teacher might have to pull one of his favorites off a part they actually want to play. We can't have that though.
He gave the snare part to a someone because they used to play marching snare. His reason was that he needed impeccable timing which is something every marching snare player has to have. Key word is used. I CURRENTLY play marching snare...
well, cant compete with that. the kid just has that advantage :/
[QUOTE=Makol;27362928]I've been bitching/whining here a lot lately, and I don't see that happening anytime soon..
Anyways.
I somehow managed to start off the day perfectly fine and in a great mood (not normal for me) but now as the day is ending I somehow got into a terrible mood as the day slowly got worse. What makes matters worse is that I have really have no one to talk to at the moment since all my friend are busy or not responding when trying to find someone to talk to. Fan-fucking-tastic.[/QUOTE]
I opened steam to talk to you and saw I couldnt find you.
[QUOTE=Cpn Crunch21;27363071]well, cant compete with that. the kid just has that advantage :/[/QUOTE]
Except I currently play the instrument. The last time that person played it was in October... Not even parts where we need impeccable timing. It was a parade which we basically look in step and since we don't have to worry about judging we're pretty lenient on timing. The last time that person practiced seriously for snare was before October.
most of this stuff "I can't fall asleep" is a mixture of anxiety and sitting on your computer all fucking day
if you're constantly thinking/worried about people at school/what people think/your grades etc you won't fall asleep, and if you're doing no physical exercise you won't be tired at the end of the day unless you had a stressful day at school, which could then make you more prone to anxiety.
try working out, running around your neighborhood for a mile at a time or even half a mile and increase by a quarter when you think you can, you'll feel so much better after, it'll clear your mind and you can think better, you'll lose weight and gain muscle, and release endorphins which is what "fun" actually is.

Dear Facepunch, (blogpunch)
I finally got around to asking that girl out, after being hounded by all my friends. And it was a fight for me to get myself to do it, like I knew 2 things: 1) That today was now or never on asking her out, and 2) That there would be a catch when she answered. The second hit the nail on the head 100%.
Somehow, just somehow in the back of my mind I knew it would turn out like this: she's already seeing someone.... and that's always the answer I get when I ask someone out.
I've never hated life itself before, I've always been happy, I've never had a complaint for how my life is.
......I hate my life now. Yet at the same time I have a sense of peace, and I'm happy for her. But then there's the underlying sadness and depression that kicked in and that I felt while waiting for an answer, like immediately after I asked the question something in the back of my head went "you idiot, she's probably already got someone." Sure enough, the evil little Satan-voice in my mind was correct, as he always is in these situations...

dont worry, you will find another. Yes, these next few days are going to hurt, trust me, you will get over it. You will find another girl to fall for and hopefully then it will all work out. Just gotta keep trying dude, keep it up.

Yeah, took me until now to realize that. Kinda dumb that I snipped it.
[QUOTE=Cpn Crunch21;27364420]uplifting statements[/QUOTE]
I know, i know. I know how much those next few days hurt, and I always hear about how I'll fall for another girl.
But the problem is... I always get rejected. It's always either "Sorry, but I have a boyfriend..." or "Aw, you're really nice/sweet, and I really like you, I do, but I just don't feel the same way." and it kills me and my self esteem for when it comes to love ever-so-slowly. It's tortuous. And, I pity myself now, as egotistical and selfish as it sounds, I truly do pity myself for not being able to foresee this outcome as clearly as my, *ahem* "demons" could.
you dont always get rejected, you know why? because sometime in the future you are going to find that girl that says yes, and you will live a happy life together, so 'always' is not true.
Also, wisdom beats knowledge in the long run. What i mean by this is going out and experiencing stuff (whether smart or dumb) is a lot better than sitting inside and speculating. Go live a full life and dont listen to those dark thoughts, because it may be, just may be, that one time that they are wrong and she says yes... and its at that very moment that you will feel your happiest and can turn around to that demon and say "i told you so" and punch that asshole in the face.
[QUOTE=Cpn Crunch21;27364796]more uplifting statements, stage directions for punching assholes in the face[/QUOTE]
What you've said makes me feel a bit better. And I'm always hoping that day will come. But the whole thing with that asshole demon, is that I've never had a girlfriend, so I've never really been sure about how I'm going to meet anyone when I leave home, go to college (US Air Force Academy) and get sent off to my first duty station. It's like the black hole of uncertainty that brings up that problem with me not being able to visualize myself in a relationship in the future: because I'm just "in the dark" about how I'd meet someone.
And another thing, I've totally got a little bit of an asshole-ish, egotistical thought sitting in my head, a small part of me that wants things to fail between her and her boyfriend so that I'd have a chance again. And I think that's because she's got that... perfect personality for me, she's the kind of person that I always describe (personality-wise) when I think about what I look for in people.... (and of course, she's beautiful:) )
[b]Edit:[/b] also, I probably shouldn't have said "always" but rather "and so far" or "and up to now"

You're going to meet somebody someday. Maybe not now but you will, trust me.
And for that last part you said (bolded for convenience). I'm in the same boat as you there, finding someone that's p much what you're looking for with look to boot, but I highly discourage wanting for them to fail. Just wait it out since who knows what will happen, I am.
not sure if this has been said before but i read something about rejection earlier on this page but i believe everyone should go through being rejected at least once in their life. it sucks at first but it makes you a stronger person in the long run

Been rejected every time. Every single time.
"Excuse me Mr. Life, but is it my turn for an acceptance now? Pleaseee? Just this once?" "NO! NOW GET TO THE BACK OF THE LINE!"
Eh its no fun being the rejector either. I've had to do that waaaaay too many times and it makes you feel just as shitty as being rejected. Especially when you lose a friend because of it. And I've lost too many to count that way.
I think I'm 2/4 when it comes to getting rejected, but I like to think it's more 2/3 since I was dared to ask lol.

The first bit about not being sure of how you would meet people i feel your pain. Mine is more of a chioce though, like i commute and a little nervous to join clubs and what not so its my own fault. Hopefully when i get a job i will meet some people, and maybe develop the courage to go out and do some stuff on campus.
The second bit, ohhhhhh yeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaa, that little fucker in my mind that wished my first crush's boyfriend would die in a terrible accident. And i still secretly hate him, but i deal with it. About her being perfect for you, you will be surprise how many other people have that perfect personality. When i had my first crush i was certain she would be my wife. Yes i was THAT naive. Then when i fell for my second crush i realized that there is another girl that has an awesome personality for me, actually better. Anyway after i asked her, she told me how she acts completely different in a relationship and how she is really selfish and what not. So being in a relationship with a girl is a lot different than being friends with her.
Heres the thing for the future, dont fall to hard for girls before you start dating. What you keep doing (as i did) is you idealize her, turn her into the ONLY one for you. Its hard, but you have to stop it, reason being is that you are falling for a personality that they put up for friends. You need to wait (i know this step is hard) but wait until you start dating (and i mean dating, not "hanging out" because then she will only treat you as a friend). That way you see how she acts toward you in a relationship, and it is that personality you have to love.
[QUOTE=Pascall;27365309]sad stuff[/QUOTE]
I know what you mean, I had to turn someone down 2 weeks ago, because I just never had an interest in her, and that was when I was first definitively saying I was going to ask out the girl that just rejected me. (only time I've ever been asked out haha)
I felt horrible for having to do that, but it needed to be done.
However, I'm still friends with both the rejector and the rejectee.
Ima go on a rambling rant.
So this girl I know (lets call her Barbara for ease) recently was dumped by her boyfriend because of a misunderstanding. I am really good friends with her and I wish I could be more. I started playing my cards and getting closer. I eventually told her how I feel and she was blown away. She told me that I am great but she still loves her ex and believes she will end up with him in the future. She spent $500 on him for Christmas and he just keeps treating her like she is some hell spawn. I've heard from some friends that he is just using her now in hopes that he gets laid. They act fine in public but she tells me all the hardships of her day. I dont really know what to do because another girl who shows interest in me but left me for her ex who she is saying she will leave for me has been talking to me lately. I dont want to date someone I dont like for fear that Barbara would see that as me not caring about her anymore. One night she was crying and I was consoling her. She stated that she feels bad for talking to me about how she loves him and that she doesnt want to hurt me. I told her that I can not be hurt, no matter what she does. I still believe that. I explained to her that I love her more than anything and I would rather have her happy then be happy with with her. She basically cried for awhile here. I dont know what to do now but I just kinda play things by ear.

even if you do go out with the other chick, it shouldnt change how much you care. Although you really dont want to go out with the other chick, bc you want to keep yourself available, understandable. You could try to tell her she is chasing a dickbag, explain that you are telling her this because you care about her and dont want to see her hurt by this guy.

I appreciate what you have said and I will take it into consideration. I'm just afraid that she will end up more hurt than anyone else in this situation. I have to sleep now as I have been getting 5 hours a weeknight for the past two weeks and I slept 15 hours last saturday. woke up when the sun went down.
I will mull this all over in my sleep again.

I hear gurgling salt water periodically is supposed to help. I have done it a few times and it's had an effect to me at least. May be a placebo though.
Worth trying none-the-less.
i usually just brush my teeth, idk why but it makes it feel better for a bit
