Well, maybe this will help. I'll gave you the situation.

*Damien- REYES, LINE UP WITH ME.
Me- We're supposed to be lined up with the 2nd person in the squad...
Damien-Well? Obviously, now we're not.
Crawford (person in the squad)- Jesus Christ!
Me- *ashamed*

Damien- Reyes, you're in charge of the let 1 team today.
Me- Kay. *does the job of teaching them commands*
[After practice]

Me- Okay, guys. You did really--
Damien (cutting me off, talking to one of the squad members.)
Me- Yeah, sure Damien, lets just cut me off while I'm trying to talk to them. I'm just going to sit here, talking to myself while NO ONE LISTENS TO ME.
Damien *nonchalantly*- Oh. What were you going to say?
Me-I was GOING to say, they all did a great job on learning the--
Damien- That's because they can already MARCH! Hahahahaha!
*implying that it was so simple they could have learned it on their own, without my help.*

That's where I would say (if I know they will take it in good taste)

Oi, Damien, Wanna lay the fuck off?! I'm trying to do my job and you aren't helping. What kind of an example are you setting for us? Are we to believe we should be rude and interrupt people all the time?

I've had to yell at someone 'higher in rank' than me at work before but that's how I am. Just interrupt his interruption and tell him to knock it off in your way... If it dont quit and he's not a goood friend i'd probably lay him a blow to the shoulder, not hard just enough to send a message. People usually leave me alone when I hit them lol. I'm not violent but sometimes you need to push back.

I really wanted to hit him.

But, seeing as in my belief, violence isn't the answer. lol.

Your advice helps. Thanks.
I'll fight back with words. Yeah, he is my friend, but I have to draw the line somewhere. Thanks guys for the advice.

Next problem?

I can't say I agree. Violence does solve some problems and if they have any amount of respect and thought they will realize why you hit them and just leave it at that heh.

As for jedi it helped me to be rewarded too but I'm afraid that I can't help much on that topic other wise.

This is what I did.

I bought myself a few packs of Post-It notes.
I wrote down all of the things i needed to improve on. (Excersizing, my self esteem, my grades...)
Then, I wrote down things that would help me remember what I'm doing it for. Example...

"Bring up those grades! You can't get a career if you dont do the work!"
"Do you want to become a lazy bum for the rest of your life? I don't think so!"
"Tomorrow is another new day!" Just positive phrases and sentences. You'll see them every day and it will remind you that you yourself can do better and that you need to try harder.

I dont know if that will help, but it's helped me alot...not to mention, I have Bobby making sure I do everything. lol.

What do you enjoy? you could always Tell yourself (or get your parents) To stop doing something you enjoy doing everyday unless you have done an hours studying or so.

Heh an hour might be a bit excessive... there is NOTHING (save large sums of money, and steak) That could get me to pay attention to studying for an hour... reading a book sure but not studying.

Good luck finding that around here. Trust me I've tried and I give up. I don't need to study anyway. Well fine I'll post a problem... well less a problem and more a moral tangled web. Feel free to not read this as it is long.

I don't like the fact that I've been 'alone' my whole life... but I don't hate it either. Many of the girls, or ladies (there is a difference) around here have 3 things incommon that make me glad I'm 'alone'.

-They are retarded and piss me off.
-Not single.
-(not to soud shallow) Not in any way esthetically appealing.

Now let me justify these things... if my reasoning doesn't agree with you well... cram it I really don't care heh.

For the first one I'm not going to go there because I shouldn't have to.

The second one. There has only been one case where that was the only problem and to be honest I'm fine with that. I just want her to be happy doing what she wants and being with who she wants.... which is another thing I'll explain later.

The third one. I'm not usually one to judge this way but some people are just not appealing to most people and before you say how vain and shallow I am take this into account: Looks aren't everything... but it is something, all species base who they mate with on how their mate looks we humans just are more... subtle about it. Sure we don't get together to mate but we enjoy some people's presence more than others. So I'll be friends with said person but I probably won't date them. It's my choice who I don't be with after all, but it's not my choice who I'm with (also explained later)

Well fine here's the later. I don't believe in 'hitting on' someone. It's vulgar American crap. I shouldn't have to 'convince' someone to like me. If someone really wanted me to be with them they will tell me, if they don't then they have more options and I'm fine with that. Bringing me to the person (we'll call her uh... Lothor for comical relief). Lothor was the most talented pianist I've ever seen. She was not 'hot' as many would put it she was absolutely beautiful. She was a little quiet but not to say shy in person. On stage... shy as all get out. Not to mention she's smart and not at all 'ditsy'. We are fairly good friends (but she moved away) and I walked to my car with her after school as we parked in the same area. Never was a walk more enjoyable! I'm not even sure she had a boyfriend but she definitely had options, and I wasn't going to make any attempt to ask her to be with her. By the way let me say something, In my belief you never 'get' someone and no one is ever 'yours', they are allowing you to be close to them, you are with them, neither females or males are objects for the taking. Any way I wasn't going to make any approach but I wasn't going to deny any, It's her decision who she is with not mine. I just want her to be happy and I believe she is. This is how I would treat anyone I felt for in this way. I am not lonely per se but I'm also not content with my alone state, I'm just here for the ride of life and I'll deal with what great things/problems come at me when they do. However I am not perfect and something here may be... a little flawed. I'm up for tweaking the system a little so if anyone wants to say something then be my guest.

Why not get a new pet?

Okay that's not very helpful. you could try getting hold of this Lothor person.

You don't get a hold of people like I said.... besides Lothor moved out of my state. And I have a dog... and a cat. I'm 'happy' the way things are.

Not quite sure what other advie I can give...

Why not go into the local town and make some friends? there must be someone 'esthetically appealing' to you.

What do you think i live in a village on on top of a mountain? If you found my name then surely you can find where I live or at least the state. I'm fine. Someone will come along some day and we will be happy. But for now. Can we move on to the next problem?
