I lost my brother over the summer. As I got the news, it upset me and I was depressed for a long while. When I lost my brother to suicide, it made me feel as if I needed to isolate myself from the world because I didn't think anyone would truly understand. For many years I was deeply depressed after being in a domestic violence relationship, which I got out of a few years ago. He used to abuse me everyday and I finally took the strength to get out of it. Didn't leave for so long because my life was threatened and I was deeply afraid of him. There came a point in my life where I wanted to end my own life because I lost many friends and didn't feel as if anyone could unders…

Ok, so I didn’t know where else to put this, but it’s been on my mind lately and I really felt it was necessary to get this out there. I will want you right now that this story may be deeply upsetting to some people, and it touches on a pretty serious topic so if you’re really not looking to be bummed out turn back now, but to those of you who may need this right now I’ll leave it here. A little over a year and a half ago a dear friend of mine went missing. She was my mentor for the theatre honors fraternity and a newly graduated alumni of my college. She and I had been decently close and I was even closer friends with her boyfriend, another member of the thea…

I want to write down my reasoning here as to why I'm gonna stop role-playing here, my motives for it is dead for one, I thought I'd have fun here but it hasn't working out, and now that I have had freedom from work, I had time to reflect on this, and this site is also part of a reason why my heart is quite heavy, so atleast doing this might just help me in my life, and full disclaimer this is NOT because of any people particular, it's all me. My will and motive is just gone, and I don't want to be forced to do it. Second, I'm just gonna go to my old roots, if you just need someone to talk to or share your day with, feel free to, I'm just gonna participate in the com…

Okay so this is for people who know or knew me back when I joined a few months back, so here's what happened, I had a switch of countries and I had to find a new job and a way to resume my education, now the uni prices being absurdly high I have another flight shortly to take (I know alot of flights) but I booked it ages ago after calculating how much I'll have after the part time job I'm in, so in December I'll be off to another place, and the venting part of things, oh man, where do I start, from losing a best friend to probs a disasterous find, there's more than 90% chance the mom that I already lost when I was 15 might not even be my biological mom, step mom accidentl…

Okay... this technically happened two days ago, but I literally only found out about at like 5 am. I was finally about to go to bed when I checked my Instagram account because I just needed to make sure things were okay. Then, I saw it. I had 12 unread messages. Cue movie gasp I have never had that many messages before! Oh dear, what could it be? Turns out, those were just the people who replied. Someone had hacked into my account and sent this scam like survey to EVERYONE I was following. EVEN ALL THE KPOP ACCOUNTS. I went through every single one, having to explain that I was hacked, and I was genuinely getting terrified because I'm a little bitch …

TL;DR: No where else to vent, and this kinda venting I'd rather not do in rl for.. reasons... RL, I have no friends that I can say are my friends. I'm friends mainly with my boyfriend's friends and that's it. I have absolutely no one of my own and it's getting to me. So, I try to find friends via many social media sites because I'm awkward and have no clue where to even begin or how to communicate with strangers offline. (I'm also autistic and bipolar, which does play a part in this difficulty.) I state in my profiles that's what I want. Platonic friends, not fuck-buddies, a boyfriend or a girlfriend, platonic. friends. People who I can hang out with in real ti…

So I just need to post this and try and get this out of my head. On the 22 of Jan I went to the E.R. with chest and breathing issues and they ran so many tests I was hoping to leave with out pain and just go about my daily life again. After 3 blood samples 2 EKG's 1 x-ray and 1 Cat scan, I thought great they found something what could possibly be wrong with me. Well turns out one thing that they figured out is that I have lung inflammation/lung growth which is just the thing I needed to hear. Taking all these thing to my primary doctor he orders three more tests. One that checks for asthma and 2 for my heart, good news is, I dont have asthma that they could s…

Though I've lived in the same city for my whole life, I've moved 3 times. Times are tough. Anyway, the second move by far put me in the worst situation. My grandmother and I moved in with my aunt and one of my cousins. Things were fine at first. We got along, had fun, and were civil to each other. I can't remember the moment everything went wrong; frankly, just mentioning this is making me uncomfortable. But I can definitely recall the 3 worst experiences of living with them. My cousin was the one who did the damage. He has a short temper, violent tendancies, and access to various weapons. Not a good combination. First, there was the day our internet went out. By n…

Martial Arts is a big factor that impacted my life, helped me keep in physical shape, and in some aspects; taught me to be patient and keep a calm state of mind... But oh boy let me tell you, the journey was not an easy one, nor was it a pleasant one either hahaha! Since I was three, me and my master met by my grandfather inviting him to the house for a reunion. I vaguely remember the tv playing "Dragon Ball" at the time, and I would love to imitate Goku during his fights with either Tien or Krillin. My grandfather went to suggest my master to teach me martial arts, and like a thoughtless little kid; I too agreed to the idea after they ask me "You want to be like Gok…

I don’t know where to go with all of this. I don’t know who would even care, but I need to get this out there before I tear myself apart, probably literally. I always hear about how common depression and anxiety are. ‘Everyone goes through some depression at some point’ ‘it’s a natural part of life’ ‘anxiety is just your body’s natural reaction from back in our prehistoric days’. If all of that is true, I think my existence is a genetic defect. A failed experiment in evolution. I don’t deserve to exist. I’ve talked about having anxiety on here before, but it goes beyond some social awkwardness and nervousness about other people not liking what I put up. I fight …

So a few summers ago I was looking up random video game and anime conventions to go to. Thinking it was a smart idea to pay for it at the door, I did what I did. I went to the anime convention with a group of friends around the same age as me. We were all having fun and all until we reached the front entrance of this convention which was full of people. We waited on line for about 20 minutes trying to get in and once we did the most shocking thing happened. The people at the front collecting the money asked me if I had an adult with me. Knowing that it was probably my short height mistakening them I showed them I.D proof and all. But, they still did not let me in. S…

Where do I start with this....making @PixelBoi worry of me from the very beginning, @Yuuto Hiroshige not wanting to take my responsibility since I sort of force him, and @SMFoxy for noticing my little change. I was confident I was going to leaving here without being noticed but I guess not... Let's see, let's start at the beginning of my life where everything major occurs and the start of my hidden problem that I hide from everyone due to personal reason but, Ypu are all like family now so I don't need to be lying anymore. During 5fth grade, I was a rather popular kid back then and like now, I had a keen for making quick friend since I do enjoy listening to other's p…

Religion has always been a difficult subject for me. I've always looked at the state the world is in and said to myself that there couldn't possibly be a god that is omniscient, omnipotent, AND omnibenevolent. The lives the religious are expected to live always seemed painfully oppressive. I've always thought to myself that, if God really loved us and wanted us all in heaven, why would he give us free will to begin with? Life is a story of personal philosophy. You set your goals and achieve them one after another. Eventually, you run out of time and you can't meet those goals anymore. It's your philosophy, your beliefs in life, that dictates what you prioritized and…

I'm just gonna take a moment to rant about my stupid school. It's at the end of spring break, so naturally it's time to get back to doing homework. So I try to log in to my school's e-campus where my professor posts our homework assignments for us to print out and work on. When I go to log in, though, suddenly, over Spring Break, they decided to change the login domain. So now, my username and password which were saved to Google Chrome are no longer saved and I have to remember my password. I last updated my password about half a year ago and I've used the chrome autofill ever since. Needless to say, I'm not gonna remember what the hell my password is. So, I click the "fo…

I mentioned in a status update that I've been a fan of Pokémon since I was 4. As such, I have been a fan for 20 years of its currently 21-year existance in the US. People say it's just a cartoon for little kids. You know what else is? My Little Pony. And look where that franchise is today. Tom And Jerry, Scooby Doo, and SpongeBob SquarePants are "just" cartoons. That doesn't mean they aren't popular. Pokémon has had a massive impact on my life. It taught me to read. My war veteran grandfather and I played together, and even traded Pokémon! I cried at Bye Bye Butterfree, and I still do. I cried for a half hour straight after Pokémon Ranger And The Temple Of The Sea. When m…

To think it only started a week ago. During breakfast on Tuesday, I was told that a Category 5 hurricane was moving towards Florida. Being astraphobic - pathologically afraid of bad weather, especially involving thunder and lightning - I am well-versed in hurricanes. Their intensity is measured by the Saffir-Simpson Scale, which assigns them a number from 1 to 5. The higher the number, the faster the winds are. I've lived through 3 hurricanes, if Irma isn't included. In 2004, Florida was hit by 3 hurricanes in succession. Charley, Frances, and Ike, not necessarily in that order. But a Category 5? That worried me. To put this into perspective, the devastating Sandy was onl…

Thankfully, this doesn't happen too often for me (then again, I don't go out to many stores anyway.) ...but today I had the misfortune of visiting a store that is quite infamous for it's terrible customer service. I just wish I had've read the reviews online first... It was a fancy dress store. Didn't even last five minutes; I was the only customer there (and from the looks of things, I was probably the only customer who had been there for the whole day), and almost immediately the woman at the counter snapped at me, speaking to me very arrogantly saying "You're not allowed to go past there." I asked if there's any silly wigs or accessories there, to which she went on …

So a thing just happened. I was at our local smoke shop then the bar&grill next door to grab some cigarettes and a Banana shake while I was waiting this girl was being hit on/harrassed by some guys and it was getting awkward around everyone. Me being the dumbass that I am and clearly seeing she wasn't into it I went over and was going to talk to her like I knew her in hopes that it would get the guys to back off. I managed to say "hey" to her and I didn't realize how drunk they were until I got hit in the face. -w- Now my cheek hurts. Thankfully a manager wasn't taking any shit tonight and called the police, but hey I got a free milkshake out of it and a thanks from t…

So this happened just a few hours ago. I was joyfully minding my evening getting ready to go to work. I didn't make it. Why, you might ask? Because there is about five/six feet of snow covering my door-way. -.- I was able to peak out just enough to see the entire parking lot of my apartment complex cleared of all snow. The plowmen pushed all of the snow in front of my neighbors door as well as my own. (We're at the very edge closest to the side walk.) I was upset about it at first, but then I thought "why not make the best of it?" So I did. :3 Has anything like this happened to anyone else?

I bet you all might be wondering: "Cat, why is your Profile pic different?" It's because during the time the site was down I learned how to use Gimpshop! It'a a free photo software. I figured I wanted a mixture of Cat, "20% cooler," and "Deal with it." I met all 3 requirements, pulling way ahead of my old bland profile pic, and showing off a way of which I could make straight line art. (This was not out of laziness, I actually had the product in mind for having straight lines.) Just a fun little story I figured was worth sharing to those curious!
