AwesomeOSauce 04/16/18 1:37:57 PM #1:	I'm really nice. Too nice so people kinda get pushy with me. Its annoying but I let them take me along for a ride. Example. Guy at work knows I'm good with tech stuff. Tells me an idea. I think its just small talk say its cool. Then he ropes me in to help him with his project and its enormous and intensive work. Now I'm in here working for free out of the goodness of my heart and I don't want to be doing this but this is a nice guy and he is real passionate about this project so I can't deal with saying I'm not feeling it and ditch him because I will probably get judged by being lazy, selfish or unhelpful by a coworker :( This stuff always happens to me and I have barely any time to do stuff that I want because of it ;_; --- http://soundcloud.com/sunnyterra/audio-recording-on-monday-29 ^ Hermiione / Aeriis says my name and says I'm cute! ^_^ <cite>AwesomeOSauce posted [p:899754632] in CE I need ...
