Suppose that you are in an American suburban neighborhood, and you are exiting the driveway into a two-way roadway. Traffic moving in opposite directions is separated by a two-way turn lane. There are several cars parked on the curb to your right and to your left, so your line of sight to either side is inhibited to some extent. What would you do if you wished to make a left turn?

When Harry tried to sneak into Umbridge's office for the second time in his fifth year, why did he not bother bringing the Marauder's Map? He could have given it to Hermione after explaining how to use it. I mean, it's no secret that she is a quick learner, being that she grew up without magic and has been the best student in her year since she started at Hogwarts. Did he just forget to bring it in his haste to save Sirius? I mean, it could have stopped him and his friends getting caught by Umbridge and her Inquisitorial Squad.

at this rate I'll be 50 before I know it

It's more along the lines of me saying last semester that I'd be doing all these things, like moving out, moving to another state, traveling, and finding work I enjoy and work that can pay the bills. Almost seven months later, I am doing none of those things, and it aggravates and frustrates me. I am not exactly enjoying anything right now. Life is not fun. I cannot even bothered to figure out what I like enough to make a career of it. I'm just aimlessly wandering around, figuratively speaking, for entry-level work that I keep trying to convince myself I'm cut out for, even though I know deep down I'm not.

depression

Come to think on it, it might be just this. Right now, I'm thinking about how some of my classmates from the senior seminar I took last semester will be exiting school by next week Friday after their finals are over and done with. It bothers me far more than it should, I should think. Just the thought of those lot moving on to better things doesn't really make me feel better about myself. Although, it is possible that they won't all be moving onto better things, and that I'm just over-thinking this. But I doubt that all of them will be stuck in dead-end, low-paying jobs. Then again, it was a classroom of just ten, and three of them, as I recall, said they were going to graduate school after the end of spring semester. So at least three of them have already moved on to better things--"better", by my standards. But again, I likely am just over-thinking this. Not all of them I could have considered my acquaintances, but it's odd that I miss them still. My mind's stuck in the past more often than it should be, I should think. It's just so hard not to be so bitter and envious of people, sometimes.

I have not heard of Breakpoint. And to be honest, I don't exactly keep up with the latest video game releases, so I wouldn't have heard of it even if it weren't obscure.

Anyway, let me think:

Kingdom Hearts III
Kingdom Hearts HD Collection: 1 + 2
Crash Team Racing HD
Pokemon Y
World of Final Fantasy

I do not think any of these are obscure. I guess I will just designate World of Final Fantasy as my choice of "most obscure game from this list", unless someone wants to correct me.

I barely have anyone to talk to, anymore. It's just my mother who just expunges her own set of problems whenever I talk to her about what is bothering me. She'll just interrupt me part-way through my venting, tell me I'm giving her a headache because my sadness is causing her to be sad, and then she will just keep going on and on about how much more depressing her life is, with the neglectful husband, bullying sisters, her advanced age, and two of her kids being jerks to her almost everyday. It's tiring having to go through that every time I want to talk about anything. Last night, I dreamt that I found a document stating that my father cheated on my mother and that I was born as a result of that infidelity. Then I woke up and remembered that my birth certificate has my mother's name on it. It makes me wonder if I secretly resent being my mother's kid. And I don't feel like telling anyone on the internet what I'm going through (other than on here), because they're just going to respond with unhelpful, annoying comments like "oof", "yikes", or "RIP".

Nowadays, I feel that I'm only happy when I'm asleep and don't need to deal with this nonsense. I think about the past too often because I was less lonely back then. Now, I think that I'm lonelier than I've ever been. Part of the appeal of school was that I'd see people everyday and sometimes I could talk to them. But I digress; I'd given up on finding friends long ago, so I didn't actually have any intention of befriending any of those lot. It's too much work because everyone is afraid of my scowling face. I end up resenting people in the end for being happier than I am and because I'm unable to relate to them, anyway. As early as elementary school, people have been telling me over again to smile. After I got over my selective mutism, I told them that I didn't smile because I wasn't happy. My reasons for not doing so have not changed in the slightest. It's just far too hard to smile nowadays when I cannot help but feel tired, angry, frustrated, and miserable all the time. It's nearly impossible for me to care bout anything anymore. There's nothing to smile about. There's no reason why I should be happy.

I'm tired of older people telling me continuously that I'm still young. What's even their point? And I'm sick of people constantly complaining about how they're depressed, how their friends are scum, how they suffer from bad break-ups, and more nonsense that I do not care to list. It annoys me greatly for some reason. And now suddenly, I understand a bit more how my mother feels when my sister and I complain to her about being depressed. People at work, at home, and on the internet just talk about the most mundane nonsense that I cannot be bothered to care about anymore. When people talk about the latest news about games, politics, local trash, movies, and the like, I just cannot help but think about how pointless these things are. It makes me feel all the more disconnected from them, not being able to care about the same stuff they do. I don't suffer from normal-people problems. It's very, very hard for me to care about other people if they sound so inanely dull, and people who moan about their depression, for the lack of a better word. And the latter just makes me want to tell them to shut the hell up.

Anyway, I feel that time is moving by too fast because I'm stuck at a job that I will be forced to leave in less than a month. I feel like I haven't really gotten anywhere since going to college. At least with school, I felt like I was making some progress in learning something new. I just wish that I had chosen my subjects with greater care so that I would have learned something to add to my resume. Right now, I'm thinking my life's a joke, and I am hating myself more and more everyday. For example, I'm supposed to be looking for work right now. Instead, I'm typing out this great essay venting my frustrations and my sorrows, that very people will bother to read. Not productive in the slightest, I should think.

what you mean

The closest thing to what I mean is the feeling of being stagnant. At work, these people at work who find another job feel this need to announce to the entire company his farewell message,saying how great their experience working at a homeless shelter has been, and how they're moving on to greater things. Then these phonies keep on cc'ing the entire company when they write their "good luck and goodbye" messages to the one person who is leaving. It's just so depressing because it just reminds me that I'm making hardly, if any progress at all with my career. I end up just marking the what's-his-face as spam as an act of passive-aggression because I know I am never going to see him ever again and will not need to endure my inbox being bombarded by "good luck!" messages and all that nonsense.

In any case, though, this complaint wasn't exactly relevant, seeing as I have received no such messages today. It's just the thought of my classmates from school with whom I attended class, who will be graduating in fewer than two weeks. I imagine them going on to greater things after they officially obtain their degrees, and it just makes me bitter and angry that I'm still doing work that doesn't pay me enough for rent. I'm also frustrated because I'm being laid off by the end of this year. I'd been wanting to take a vacation somewhere, but by the end of the year, I'll be without work. So now, going on a trip is no longer an option. And as it is, my resume is incredibly dismal and it just makes me feel like dung, it does. Although, I cannot say that it is completely worthless; the other day, I went to see a staffing agency and was told I'd be eligible for two jobs. Neither of them related to my own experience, so it just gave me the impression that my experience is worth nothing. It really makes me wonder what I'd been doing at that job for over three years. The thought makes me hate myself even more for not being more pro-active during my academic career.

Moreover, I rejected those two offers because I was having an anxiety attack. At that moment, I was so very unsure of whether I'd be able to do the work described by the temporary-work agency worker, whether I'd be able to stomach constant contact with executives and their lot. Then I started twitching and freezing up due to anxiety. I was already ill-prepared for the interview, having neglected to practice it. It made me wonder if I was worthy of even being considered. Additionally, I cannot even decide if I want to take a vacation or find work. Sometimes, I secretly hope I will not find work and will have an excuse to go on vacation during January. I know this thought should be banished from my mind if I should be successful in my job-hunting endeavors, but even so. I'm tired beyond all belief. The last time I went on vacation, I was three, and I don't even remember it. I digress. Taking trips should not be my first priority at the moment. It should be finding work. Although, I don't know if doing so will benefit my mental health. As it is, I still suffer from severe agitation, panic attacks, and nervous fits at my current workplace.

And nowadays, I cannot help but hardly enjoy anything. Everything looks like dung, as I have said in a few topics before this one. Nothing makes me happy. I don't see the point in playing video games anymore. They're not fun as they used to be. Reading literature to keep my mind away from real-life problems has lost its appeal. I always know I'm going to have to return to worrying about finding work with what is essentially no experience. Writing tires me out nowadays. Now, I just don't see the point in writing about my troubles that often anymore. I don't really see the point in trying to resume amateur fiction-writing. Most days, I don't even have the energy to go through with it. Nowadays, it's just job-hunting and programming after eight hours of tedious work.

Huh, the way you described these two days is starting to make me wonder if the Friday following Thanksgiving is just a sort of Thanksgiving in itself. It is almost as if the food for this "Thanksgiving on a Friday" is the consumer goods that are highly discounted for this particular day, and the stores are the houses where the feasts for this "food" take place. As far as I know, one would typically overindulge on these holidays, be it on food or on gifts (or just "presents" for oneself). But I digress. Thanksgiving is all about being thankful for what one has (depending on whom you ask, anyway), and the Friday after encourages the belief that one does not have enough stuff and needs to get more; even if it's not necessary, and some of these things are only bought because they are on sale. It's odd how very stark the contrasts between the ideals of these two days are and how close together they are on the calendar, even though the general traditions of them are a bit similar, depending on how one might interpret the Thanksgiving holiday. Or maybe, I'm just looking too much into it, and I'm basically talking nonsense. >_>

I unintentionally saw the first episode of Charmed many months ago. I'd heard that Kaley Cuoco was in it, so I tuned in to watch. Then I learned that she doesn't appear in the show until the very last season. Even so, I found the pilot engaging, interesting, and thrilling. Then I tuned in every Sunday afterwards to watch Charmed. I regret to say that the show started to decline in quality and in writing after Doherty left. In my opinion, the show should have cut off when Cole was vanquished for the final time after he rewrites reality to have Phoebe back. Then the writers started borrowing all these creatures and items from real-world mythology. It just seemed to me like a lazy move to me. Afterwards, they introduce these "Cleaners", which made me lose faith in the show's credibility and ability to make sense. I mean, where were these jerks when all hell broke loose during the finale of the third season? Afterwards, a learning institution for magic called "Magic School", so originally named, is introduced. I have no real gripes about the school itself, knowing nothing other than the fact that it acts not only as a school to hone and control magic, but a sanctuary that dark creatures cannot reach, except for the one time during the seventh season. I just have problems with the name of the school; it's just so dumb. I know it's a petty complaint, so it should be disregarded in my analysis of the show, which I'm giving in this topic for some very odd reason, when I have answered the original question posed to me already. And honestly, over the course of the entire series, the Charmed Ones cheat death so often, you just don't even care if any one of them appears as if she is about to die, since a long-time viewer would be under the impression that she'd come back to life one way or another. I mean, with the exception of Prue Halliwell. Moreover, the excessive time-travel present throughout the series lacks consistency and is very much overdone in my opinion. So yes, I caught the first episode of Charmed, watched it religiously until the third season, then intermittently afterwards until the seventh season, when I watched it only if I had nothing better to do. I barely caught the eighth season, but I was sure to tune in to the series finale. But I really think that the final episode of the seventh season would have sufficed as just that. Instead, the writers insisted that the other two sisters are paired up and has a happy ending with some bloke that she'd only just met in the span of just a couple of months. But I digress; I have watched at most three episodes of the final season, so I do not actually know how well-developed these romances were, aside from the one with Piper and Leo, who have had a history almost as old as the entire show. In any case, I feel that the writers wanted a happy ending, as if these were the norm in real life; I disagree with them very much on that count. Additionally, I did not approve of the series finale. Two of the sisters die, then one escapes and revives them with more time-travel shenanigans, as if anyone needed more of that. Overall, I feel like if a writer relies on time travel too much, it's an indicator of the fact that his ability to write a good plot is slipping. In any case, the series finale did two things I hated: cheating death through time travel. For this, I do not think highly of it nor of the writers who had created it. In short, I did catch the Charmed pilot only because I had heard from my discussions of The Big Bang Theory that Kaley Cuoco appeared in it. Then I got hooked on the show despite her absence until the final season.
