Worrying
What's the most worrysome thing in your life at the moment? The thing that's niggling the back of your mind, as it needs to be sorted out, or you're waiting for the result.
At the moment in my life I don't have many worries, which is unusual for me. The only pressing thing I have is lack of money, but it's no biggy as I'm ok as long as I don't spend too much on things for a while.
I'm curious, as some people on GD will tell us about any problem they have, and make new threads about it, whereas others will keep quiet. It seems that they may have perfect untroublesome lives.

Re: Worrying
My ex who spectacularly dumped me two weeks ago would like to get back together. The fact that I've heard she was/is in love with a guy recently and that she might have went for him,got rejected and has now decided to settle for me is worrying.
Also I have developed a condition that may result in me having to go for surgery, something which I certainly would not relish. THAT is constantly worrying me in the back of my mind.
I also might have been caught over the speed limit by the cops and their damn speed camera. I wont know for around two weeks. 2 points and a fine is worrying me.

Oh, and VB is for sissies indeed. That's why I don't understand why on earth those people chose to make somesort of SAP system in VB and not choose a decent language.
Still, it means I have to learn VB and lower my "programming" standards. For as far as one can call VB programming ofcourse. I feel I'm too good for this (I am!), but hey, I need the job.

Re: Worrying
I tried to convince my boss today to have a Rocky Horror day at work.
He asked why and I worried myself (and him) when I sincerely answered with "I want to walk around in suspenders for a day or two."

Re: Worrying
Money/Debt problems (not too serious as my income is increasing but my fixed expenditure declining).
The fact I can't seem to concentrate on anything anymore.
The fact I seem to be completely self-destructive at times for no adequate reasons.
The fact I ocassionally seem to be a complete prick towards people who (probably) care about me.

If you've got any special problems or performance issues (that don't go too heavy into 3rd party db components or whatever stuff I don't know of) feel free to ask. There are some tricks to improve speed. A lot can be done with VB.
And you can't tell me that using another syntax will lower your programming standards that much.
It's not like VBasic is still using line numbers (but make sure to enable "variable declaration mandatory" at once in preferences).
I personally think that overloading operators in C for example is a bad thing to do, but well...
Never-ending war, just like OS, Browsers, etc.
I'm currently worried about my lazyness and unable-ness to get things sorted. Gonna start a new life @ uni in another city in < 2 weeks, and I'm not showing too much interest in getting my things packed. I'm scared I won't be motivated enough to get proper food and tidy up my little room etc. The usual.
Also since it's a tech-uni, the overall girls-rate must be about 35%, 15% in my subject, \o/ :-/.
And I'm sure physics-girls aren't especially the "best pick"... We'll see...

Re: Worrying
<vague>
I worry that no-one really cares; that all the comfort and help in the world is just evolved mechanisms that may or may not work, and there's no practical reason to admit when they don't because there's no alternative. I worry that I'm special in some way that excludes me from my Aristotlean actuality, and that there might even be a lot of people in a similar position where it would be impossible or economically unfeasible to try to understand.
Or depending on mood I worry that there is a conspiracy against me. It seems like it would be so easy for six billion people to decide "hey, forget about justice a sec; let's **** up queball and laugh at the CCTV footage". Or I think about how among those billions of people sitting around for hundreds of years there just had to be one with a bright idea and a bit of willpower and he could create a secret society to run the world that might decide to kill me at any time unless I obey them.
I know no-one would bother. But I do worry there's something big I'm not in on. In fact I know there's lots of things I'm not in on. There must be millions of cliques with amazing ideas and values I'll never be in on. I just worry that some of them are important. Some cool, popular idea will take over the world and I'll be stuck with stupid tastes and a degree in a subject that has become the province of giant computers. You couldn't conform even if you wanted to.
I also worry about my computer after I die or run away, not just if they find the violent porn but people finding out I spend so much writing crap, just like John Nash but without being a successful mathematician. I used to use encryption but then decided the risk of losing my encryption key is too high given that if I died they'd find them anyway so it's useless.
I worry that my creative faculties have been rendered permanently useless since I spend half my time fantasizing about beating people up and the other half seriously considering what I'll do when I win the lottery or find I'm the chosen one inside the Matrix or gain control over all the world's databases by finding the secret to all cryptography.

Re: Worrying
the fact that I have utterly NO idea as to what I wish to do with my life. Well, except joining the army again.
then there's the constant stream of ongoing "stuff" with my recent ex thats really starting to take a toll.
Something is utterly ****ed as I dont even bother contacting my friends anymore.
guess its just a minor depression, but its gnawing.

Re: Worrying
I worry that I have no future. There is nothing that attracts me in this system, and it's lonesome on the outside. I don't want a job. I don't want to be a social-client. I don't want to go to school. I don't want to pay tax. The only thing left for me is to riot against the order of everything. And have fun, but lately, I've been drinking too much, and I just become depressed when I drink nowadays.
I worry about the state of the world, and what will happen. I worry that we are destroying it. I worry about the starving children, about my depressed friends, about the army wanting me to join them sooner or later, I worry that I will go to prison soonish (Maybe), I worry that I don't have any money. I worry that nobody loves or even likes me.

<3 Dante.
I will now, against my better judgement, share a song lyric from a song called Dog Day Afternoon, a verse by a very good rapper named Chords.
"All I hear are clocks tickin?, I?m stuck in this hot kitchen
in the ****in? wok sizzin?, watchin? how the plot thickens
Watchin? all these cops friskin? little kids for shopliftin?
Tellin? em to stop, listen! Run and check the job listings
Nah mister, I don?t work for slave wages
I don?t want my playstation to trade places with a pacemaker
I just relaxed real cool, sat back looked pass the rules
You and your pack of fools ruined my afternoon
I swear these mother****ers got a hold of me, bloodsuckers controllin? me
Won?t let go of me, and they throwin? me to the wall, but I fall on my own two feet
Could it be cus I?m rollin? trees and my block smells like potpourri
With my eyes shot red like the Cyclops in the Odyssey when I go to sleep
It is cus I don?t hold the grease? **** that man I flow on beats
**** the man patrollin? streets, cuffin? hands and holdin heat
I?d rather earn a dollar with a dirty collar
workin? the early hours for something worth the bother!"
This sums me up just pretty good right now. The beat, however, is very happy, so this song is great.

Re: Worrying
<3 for snurx
I worry because I've lost my birth certificate. I worry because UCAS can't spell my name correctly. I worry because the DPI think I'm a girl. I worry because I had to send off for a passport twice because they got my name wrong first time. I worry because my boyfriend is much more experienced than me, has a heart condition, is a reformed alcoholic (but still drinks more than I can afford/handle), randomly passes out while I'm administrating blowjobs, knows more people on the "scene" than I can handle/live with, and I worry because my deepest insecurity is losing him. I worry that he's going to run off with another /a better man every time we go anywhere/do anything, I worry that he's going to run off with an ex, I worry that I don't compare, that I'm worse, that I'm inferior to any of the people he's ever been with. I worry that I'm going to spend another year sat on my arse putting on weight, fail a few more exams, and don't get into uni. I worry that one day I'll wake up and it'll all be so overwhelming/shit that I'll not move for days. I worry that I sleep too much at the weekends and not enough on the weekdays. I worry that I'm getting it all wrong, and everyone is secretly laughing at me behind my back and I have no idea why, or what to do to make it better, or when i will end. I worry about the next American president. Either way, we're ****ed. I worry because I know I'm not strong enough to stand up on my own two feet, but I get the feeling that people are getting to the point where they're starting to hate me for having to rely on them. I'm too lazy to get a job, but I need money.
I worry that my grammar is awful in this post.
p.s.
Comedy Option: Monty Python - I'm so worried.

Re: Worrying
Worrying is just as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum
The real troubles in your life are aptly things that never crossed your worried mind
Amen, Baz

Re: Worrying
i must say that most of these worries are things you could fix if you got off your collective arses (with the exeption of conspiricies, panoid much, and the next US pres.), it seems really pathetic to me, but then, that's 'cos i'm perfect.
