How are you feeling today?

[IamMissingaLink]

feeling good. I finally have Patrick's Wolf Lycanthropy album! Speaking of music, does anyone have the Killers new album Sam's Town?

[Laindessiel]

Why Mads? Panic attack? What made you feel so?

As for me, I've got loads of books to read (not complaining!) ranging from The Importance of Being Ernest to the complete edition of the Philippine History. Still not complaining! :)

[IamMissingaLink]

I feel as if I cant breathe. Another panic attack, I guess.


How often do u have them? i've never had one but I've suffered anxiety and dysphoria.

[Madhuri]

Why Mads? Panic attack? What made you feel so?


When I start having too many expectations from myself, and when I try to push myself to do things much better. :(



How often do u have them? i've never had one but I've suffered anxiety and dysphoria.

Not very often, I dont usually have very high expectations from me, but sometimes...

Dont worry, it will go soon. :)

[Laindessiel]

Gosh I can relate. When I feel the same feeling as you have, I get frustrated and then cry. I feel better afterwards.

Frustration is what always makes me cry. Even the small things, like for example, cannot find a thing that I'm looking for for a long time, or when the computer breaks down and won't work, or not finding the right shade of black when I'm sketching; in short, when things don't go my way. But I guess we have to live with that everyday.

And as Oprah says:

"Don't sweat the small stuff. If it won't matter a year from now, if it won't count at your deathbed, it's not worth the aggravation."

It's a quote that I'm still trying to live with.

That's a nice quote.

I understand, how crying can be helpful in such situations and it definitely works for you, :) but you see I cant cry (I dont know why), that's why I feel breathless. I feel crying is a better option than feeling breathless. :nod:

[miss tenderness]

flying,flying! the weather is amazing. It's raining now,I took my students outside, we forgot all about lessons!

[adilyoussef]

Not happy, for today is the end of my vacation. Tomorrow I have to pack and take the road. This is my last day at home.

[Madhuri]

I am feeling nice :nod: I accidently met one of my batchmates from college time, today morning, he hasnt changed a bit. It brings back so many memories.....

[Madhuri]

very very low on energy and enthusiasm.. :(

[Laindessiel]

Apart from feeling a little bit sad about what happened to Miss T., I think I'm gonna be okay. Also it's a gloomy, gloomy night tonight and I can't figre out why!

[miss dream]

i feel sad today

[Laindessiel]

Can you elaborate, Miss Dream, if it's not too much to ask?

[Virgil]

Thankful. Today is Thanksgiving Day in the United States. I am thankful for many things, but the only one I will mention is that lit net exists and that I made so many friends here. Thank you all lit net members.

[SleepyWitch]

I feel a bit tired after studying all week.
on the other hand, I skipped my fave tutor Mike's course and he asked my friend Cristine were I was :) Hehe, it's nice to know he missed me :)
(when I was studying in England, he wrote me an e-mail saying "I'd like you to take part in an info session for students who want to study abroad in April 2006. When will you be back?" This was in March 2005 and he perfectly knew I'd be back in June 2005. = he missed me :) )

Hey, thanks too Uncle Virg for being in this forum! A great deal will be lost without you! :)

[vheissu]

I'm a bit worried actually: I have an exam tomorrow, one of those scary, horrible ones and....I'm not in the slightest panicked! On the contrary...I feel a certain apathy to the whole thing
:( This is sooooo not good. Something is wrong!!

[miss tenderness]

I've got the blues!!I feel burdened,oversaddened.

[Laindessiel]

Don't cry, Taleen. Oversaddened is not a good feeling at all, but you'll overcome it. :)

[Madhuri]

Take your time Taleen...its very sad and things wont become better in a matter of few days...but you know we are there for you.

as for me...I am feeling useless...dont have anything to do for the rest of the day and this bugs me a lot. :(

[kathycf]

You may not feel it right now, but you will find your way through your sad times, miss T. Lots of hugs.

I am feeling good now...better than the last few days....I feel as if I got my life back.....more calm and peaceful, but before that there was a nasty outburst too, which was a bad thing for me to do.....

That's great. Looks like weekend. :D

I feel good. First of all because I am reading a really good book and on the second, because it is a HOLIDAY! :p

[kathycf]

Holidays are fun and so are books! :)
Madhuri, most everybody has an outburst at one time or another. Today, I feel ok but pretty tired.

[Madhuri]

Its now Sunday here....

Its okay to have outbursts...but the bad thing is when you take it out on people you love...and the good part is that they are the only ones who will bear it.....

[Lily Adams]

Horrible!!

[RobinHood3000]

Aww, what's the matter, Lily?

[Lily Adams]

Yesterday I bought 2 1/2 yards of absolutely perfect material for my dress, and I needed 2 3/4 yards, but that's all the fabric store had. So I bought it anyway, and it wasn't enough! I thought I could get away with it because I'm smaller than the smallest size for the pattern, but no!

It would help if the fabric store would accept refunds!

So I bought some more fabric today. It's not exactly what I want, but It's close enough, but I can't really start on the dress because I need bodice lining, braid, and ribbon to start on it, and now I can't afford it because I wasted money on the first fabric! I need to start on it immediately because it's fairly complicated (not to mention this is my first time sewing anything) and I need it in five months!

[RobinHood3000]

Wow, I'm sorry, Lily. I hope everything works out all right for you, I really do!

[Lily Adams]

Well, I mean, worse things could happen to me, but I just feel so frustrated! :flare:

Thank you, Mr. RobinHood3000 for your sympathy.

[Madhuri]

I am feeling okay.....

[Madhuri]

[SummerSolstice]

On top of the flipping WORLD because the cute curly-haired boy I've been admiring from across the aisle in biology struck up a conversation after class and followed me all the way to my next building! :D :blush: :D :blush: :D

Best. Wednesday. EVAR!!

[AimusSage]

Don't get yer hopes up Summer solstice!

Although I admit it is a good sign. Personally, I never follow people, I let them follow me, if they feel so inclined. That's probabbly why I am where I am. Headstrong, stuborn, but at the same time quote endearing. :lol: I know the first two are true.

[SummerSolstice]

Haha... My hopes are in a constant state of up. Pulling them down takes more emotional ballast than I posess. :lol: There's an extra degree of encouraging-ness since in every other noted instance he's turned left after class, but I was going right... O_O

Right now I'm feeling somewhat more subdued than previously, thanks to a math test which required unsettling amounts of guesswork on the last problem, but still more than usually cheerful. ^_^

[Scheherazade]

Why the long faces, people? Has the world ended?

2 hrs. ago, when it was still Dec. 1, my brother had his 11th birthday! But the party's not until tomorrow and Toni and I were so busy planning and making the decorations (not fond of buying outside. We conserve and understand the needs of the environment and recycle used things. Plus, it adds a special touch to it, knowing that we had to break our bones and torture our muscles to make them!)

[grace86]

burned out, ready to scream, and heartbroken...also wondering when it was that I decided to quit my position of optimist.

I have a flue:(

[ennison]

Sympathetic

A flea and a fly in a flue were caught
Said the flea, 'Let us fly!'
Said the fly, 'Let us flee!'
So they flew through a flaw in the flue.


She opened the window and in flew Enza.

[dramasnot6]

really really tired and at loss for inspiration for poetry on litnet....:( i shouldnt allow myself to view the haiku thread while my brain is this dead...

[Madhuri]

sleepy...I dont know why I have this feeling that I just want to sleep all the time.....maybe its the weather......

[dramasnot6]

i can definetly see why youre tired madhuri! it msut be so hot over there right now. i thought i could complain about Australia summer, but India must be like a deep frier....i hope to go there someday and meet my distant relatives:) i guess ill be packing many pairs of sunglasses....just in case some melt:p

[Madhuri]

Its okay these days...its winters now....but sometimes the weather is so gloomy...less sunlight and shorter days......

In summers its reeeaally hot....it goes uptil 45-48 degree celsius....the best time is from Oct till mid december and then end of Feb till March end..these are the most pleasant months and the rest of the time its warm or very hot....

[Madhuri]

Okay and confident............

[miss tenderness]

good to hear that,Maddie:)

[alhara]

I think in terms of gloomy Finland is the worst right now,the sun came up at like 10:00 and it in another 5 hours it is gone. It´s dark(and super cold) when I get home from school and even darker now the snow has melted, I over slept so I am well rested, with healthy dose of guilt for missing my first class.

[Pensive]

Cold, and bad.

Had a crappy day, did stupid stuff which did not produce a good result, I guess it serves me right.

[Madhuri]

Sleepy...... think I have some ailment, I feel sleepy all the time.....:(

[vheissu]

:( Quite sad and disapointed: I got my last essay back today and got a rather terribly low mark for it....and in 2 days I have the exam for that course...I feel like crying!!

[alhara]

I was hungery most of the day but now I am supper happy....I had a pastry and some milk. Its good to get what you want even if its as none specific food or to go to the bath room.

[Laindessiel]

Sleepy. It's already 2:50 A.M.

And hungry too. But I just ate strawberries!

[Shannanigan]

erm...disappointed...I'm realizing how little I learned this semester, and now I'm just not motivated to study the small amount of info needed for my exams because I know I'll just memorize it, take the test, and then forget it. There's no personal growth in that; it's depressing. Then I think about how I'm going all the way to California for two weeks with my boyfriend and we'll be staying with my dad...who is a control-freak and will probably prevent me from having all kinds of fun even though I'm 20 :(

Hmmm...there's always Motel 6! :p

[Nightshade]

Great I gave my flat mate money and she came back with pringles...and icecream!!:D:D

[dramasnot6]

not very poetic...and dizzy....which is sad because there are so many wonderful haikus,haigas and cinquains flying around i want to contribute to! maybe tonight ill find some inspiration...

[Shalot]

I feel hypnotized. Maybe hexed.

[Pensive]

A bit devastated, on the other hand happy as well.

Shocked and grieved because of my studies - I am not doing too well in school now a days, even in English lesson. :bawling:

Happy because we are going to have a school trip on my birthday, and we are going to have a Fun Fair in the school as well. :D

So I guess that I am a mixture of a happy and a gloomy person today. :)

[Madhuri]

not motivated, lack of energy and desperation to do well...I feel not so good...:(

[Virgil]

Oh I hope you feel better Maddie. Perhaps if you make yourself a hot tea it might help.

[Madhuri]

Oh I hope you feel better Maddie. Perhaps if you make yourself a hot tea it might help.

Thanks! :)

I need to cut out my Internet time. I am too distracted and am always giving priority to leisure over work. The change has to come from within, and I should practice all what I said. When will I learn??

I will have tea once I reach home, these vending machines at work are no good.

[Laindessiel]

Confused. Having a disorganized mind doesn't feel very good.

[Nightshade]

queezy



:sick:

[SummerSolstice]

Dead tired. It's O-finals-thirty at night and I must... get... paper... done...

[aeroport]

-- as if I were standing at the summit of a mountain, being showered with rain of a most torrential nature, surrounded on all sides by nought but pitch darkness, save for the occasional blast of lightning, blazing in time with my own little angry flashes; now flying about in unconcerned expectancy, having just wrathfully been snatched up from terra firma by a most menacing and imposing tornado, which presently promises a swift lobbing back down into the valley, from whence the vultures shall decide where I am to go...

[April214]

Proud. :thumbs_up

[Madhuri]

Better. I found one good bug in the s/w, so it isnt that bad (although I'll get the feedback on it tomorrow, but I am pretty sure it is a good bug), I am working on my distractions but I should do something about my sleepiness.....

[Serenata]

Cold. So cold. The school has trouble regulating heat, so we either freeze or we drip sweat all day.....sometimes both.

[vheissu]

Conflicted and angry...I had an exam a couple of hours ago...which I don't quite know how it went...but I can't fail it, because if I do I can't go into 4th year!
And I have another in the morning, which I feel even less confident about!!

Busy but wonderful! I'm getting some great reading done. And making lots of progress in my cleaning. :D

Hi drama, Hi everyone else too! :D Drama, I am making some progress too, in my cleaning...just like you. Ugh...it is sure is tetious work though...would rather be on here, same with you? I pop in now and then to say hi.

I added a picture for Christmas to my signature today - had to scan it. It is so small though - anyone know if I can make it a little bigger? It is an ink drawing I did and had printed into a Christmas card, when I worked at a printers about 15 yrs back. If that does not work out I may post another of ballet shoes - call it Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies - shoe is pink! I think the card looks like a postage stamp size - too small to see what it really is - two dancers.

Other than that - I managed to post a couple of Haiku, do wash and hang some up, make dinner and now I will probably read some of my biography on Lawrence. Nite owl, Janine! A few more chapters and I am done.

I am feeling stressed a bit about holiday decorating I must start next week, but this site is helping me keep my sanity - thanks gang! I really feel happy on here and doing something creative again.

Nite to all now! J;)

[Janine]

I think my signature pic shrunk more - is that possible?

[Nightshade]

cold hungry and grumpy

[vheissu]

Slightly better than yesterday, after that awful exam. It might mean I'll have to repeat the year...which is not the best of things, but it will give me time to really think about what I want to do...and then make the right decisions

[ennison]

Why are you all so tired and weary? Too much sitting in front of computer screen. Get out more. Get some winter sun. More serotonin in the corp. Buy a spade. Do some digging. Walk. Anything to break that baffled, bedraggled, bewildered and bemused sensations you are radiating weakly through the ether.

[AimusSage]

I'm not tired and weary, I'm a zombie that likes to go out and bite people. But still, I must admit, I feel a little braindead. Or is that evil dead? Nevermind, I didn't bite anyone today.

[Madhuri]

Sleepy...Whenever I am given some project to study, I tend to fall asleep.

[miss tenderness]

No you are not tired. Until you have really worked none of you are tired. What you are afflicted by is either lethargy or ennui. Or some rare tropical illness .... like frostbite.

[Pensive]

Astonished.

Today, I went to a girls college containing about more than ten thousand people to attend a Fun Fair.

I remained very silent, when everyone else was talking. Was more of an observer, but still I had a lot of fun. It was actually nice to be quiet, listening to people, eating quite a variety of food, seeing everything and thinking rather than talking to people. (because all my age-fellows there were unknown.)

I also saw dancing of the girls behind their Abayya. It was what surprised me the most. They danced, and like mad and nothing happened to their religion then. There were men over there as well. Though boys over ten were forbidden but still there were college lab workers, the people who arrange sound system and stuff. At that time, I felt the whole Abayya thing very fake indeed. Humbug! These liars call themselves very religious-oh-so-good girls, and when given opportunity, they can show themselves naked.

Well, I can't totally blame them, it is just the culture...they want to get good proposals from respectable families, eh. I hope things will change!

[Serenata]

Confused...

Pensive, What is an Abayya?

[Madhuri]

I think its a type of veil...Is it also called as burqua?

I feel pleased. Certain issues seem to be very clear in my mind now, and I know what needs to be done...:)

Oh well yes. Madhuri is quite right, the only difference between Burqa and Abayya is that Burqa even covers face, which Abayya doesn't.

As for, how am I feeling today - okay, not bad. :)

[Nightshade]

Im feeling a bit on the depressed side , shadish is the word Im probably looking for, and I know why too Ive been back at work in the week for the first time since august and it hit me suddenly how much I miss it, and all the people who come in and the silly things that go on, and I dont want to wait a whole 6 months before I can go back :(

pensy thats only if you belive that they shouldnt do it, I mean as far as I know some of the danciest maddest girls I know where abbayahs of course they wouldnt dance about with men in the room, anymore than I would. But when its all girls why not? Its fun and a great way to let your hair down both figuritivly and literally. Its sort of oe of the reasons to wear an abayah isnt it? I mean I dont wear one but I do wear a hijab and I do it because I know myself well enough to know that with ot that small but constant reminder, Id probably end up doing alsorts of things I dont belive in, I seem incapable of saying no or standing up to people. So my tarah helps me, it also helps me resist short skirts plunging neck lines that people of my buld should wear anyway, :rolleyes:.

The thing was that there were men out there. Just because they were poor people, working class, does not make them a "female", does it? It does not matter either if it is a single man out there or a crowd.

Dancing is not bad even in front of men, in my eyes. It is a matter of choice, but hypocrisy is really hurtful.

[Nightshade]

oooh I see yes that is an attitude that really really annoys me, just because they are poor doesnt mean they dont count. :nod:

[Madhuri]

Though boys over ten were forbidden but still there were college lab workers, the people who arrange sound system and stuff.

I dont think its because they were poor were they allowed, I think they were indespensible as the whole function would not have happened if they were not there. So, their presence seems reasonable to me, and I dont think the girls would have wanted to manage the whole sound system, lab and other stuff and also dance at the same time. What if suddenly there was a power failure, who will look after that? Well, thats another thing if there were only female electricians, or music arrangers, I dont think the authorities would have asked these men. Perhaps, if you thought it this way, you wont see it in terms of hypocrisy.....:)

[Laindessiel]

Feeling good, feeling good...

Hey Mads, check out the PhotoAlbum thread...you'll see my OTHER arm...;)

[Pensive]

Pensive is feeling pensive as well. Oh well, that she mostly is.

[Madhuri]

Dejected, guilty, and only bad things. Life is so unfair......:( This is not how I wanted, I dont want a constant reminder of how wrongly I am leading my life......:( I wish I knew what to do....:(

Put yourworries aside and remember all those good hours life has offered you. :)

And don't care about what people say about your life as long as you are satisfied with it yourself. :)

[dramasnot6]

Tis Christmas! So Christmasy!! :D

[Madhuri]

Not so sure. I wish my day goes well.

[THX-1138]

[ktd222]

Really tired too...it's late.

[Themis]

Lovely, albeit with a slight headache.

[Gordon Comstock]

Somewhat depressed, but carrying on.

[Virgil]

Bloated I ate and drank too much last night. :sick:

[Nightshade]

happy excited looking forward to 7pm:D

[Poetess]

Felt great the whole daytime.. I went on a trip with friends of mine to South Lebanon to see some damaged left as remains of the last war.

Yet now, i`m feeling so stupid, alone, depressed, morose, and crying.. I`m just missing someone.

[ktd222]

My tummy hurts.:sick:

[Virgil]

Better. Just fnished a poem for the Christmas poetry contest. :)

[dramasnot6]

Finished mine on Saturday, i look forward to seeing yours Virgil! Yours and Pen's were my favorites in the last one :D I had to keep a wikipedia window open for some of your references :p

I feel pleased :)

[Virgil]

Well we won't know whose they are until after a winner is picked.

[Madhuri]

Bright and Shining and all the happy feelings only *singing* Life is Beautiful.....:banana: :D

EDIT -- That was what I felt a little while ago...

And now my heart has sunk right to the bottom, I have to take my colleagues for lunch and I hope I dont faint after seeing the bill... http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/konfus/e015.gif

*biting my nails* *biting my lips*

[Nightshade]

my throat and stomach hurt but Im still happy becasue I won a game of cards for the first time EVER last night :D

[Poetess]

I feel like singing some depressing songs! *giggles*

[Themis]

Shocked! :eek:

[ktd222]

My nose is stuffy.

[Poetess]

Themis, why are feeling shocked? :blush:

[Janine]

I read the last few pages of this thread and everyone is a wreck today. I thought I was all alone in that category...seems I am normal!
I am feeling way tired out and sort of sick, a little blue, too:( .

[Lily Adams]

Oh, I'm sorry, Janine, hope you feel better soon.

[ktd222]

I think I have the flu...or cold, I can never tell.

[Nightshade]

:lol:
:D
:D

[Janine]

Oh, I'm sorry, Janine, hope you feel better soon.

Thanks, Lily A, for your concern. I have had a chronic stomach problem and now it seems way worse - maybe the holiday rush and stress did it. Going for some more tests soon. Hard getting older - things fall apart:( Stay young as long as you can.
Anyway, glad we can rest now. It was just the fatique and my stomach that was getting me down "mentally". I am better in that category today. I got a really lovely surprise in the mail today and it lifted my spirits greatly.
Hope you are well today and enjoying the holidays if you celebrate, where you are. Take care ~ Janine :)

[ktd222]

lousy.........

[Lily Adams]

Blech. That's horrible.

And yes, I had a nice holiday, thank you-and I still am because I'm on school break!

Hope you get better!

And you get better, too, ktd222!

[ktd222]

Oh I do feel better, thanks Lily:)

[Madhuri]

If only I could get a nice head massage, I feel like sleeping. :)

Mom Janine, it`s been a long time since I saw you around :(
Hope you get well asap.



I`m feeling okay, finally :D

[Janine]

Mom Janine, it`s been a long time since I saw you around :(
Hope you get well asap.



I`m feeling okay, finally :D

Oh NO - now someone is calling me "MOM"! Well, sweet, darling Poetess, glad it is not "Grandmom" or "Auntie", anyway.

Well, I am on the mend, as they say. I was tired after doing all that Christmas stuff. :sick: I had to lay off the computer a bit and still will this week; I will just pop in now and then. Hope all is well with you. Thanks for noticing I was gone. I was actually here everyday, but kept a low profile..wrote a few haiku, etc...nothing too earth shattering.

I like that poem in your signature. Sad, but really nice. :(
Think pretty today! You are not fat at all and you are pretty - very!!!....see I have been reading the posts!;)

[Poetess]

Sorry if it actually bothered you - the Mom thing. But I only call them Mom, they whom I appreciate - ONLY!


Yea, i did read your haikus how come I didn`t remember!? Anyway, You are welcome.

[RobinHood3000]

What's wrong with Auntie? Aunts/nephews can technically be the same age as or younger than their nieces/nephews.

[tuncay_87]

tired........

[Janine]

Well, Poetess - I am flattered really....and ofcourse you are young enough to be my daughter - actually my grand. My son is 34! I am hoping to be a grannie someday soon. Auntie is ok but I like being me and Janine is just fine -that way I am just eveyone's friend....and I can still have the illusion of being young again.

[Janine]

tuncay, Hi welcome to Lit Net - haven't seen you or your eye on here before. That sure is a pretty eye, too!

[Pensive]

How am I feeling today?


Flying - flying high in the sky. :)

Don`t you innerly, spiritually feel young? This is more important than the look, I believe.



I feel goood, tara rara rara ram *sings* :crash:

[ktd222]

Great!!! Ready to conquer the world...on second thought, maybe I'll just sit in front of this computer.

Happy and singing....:banana:

Teri mastani anjani baaton ko mera Salaam
Rangon main doobi-doobi teri baaton ko mera Salaam

But, I dont want to look outside, its a gloomy weather, foggy and cold....that will make me sad...

[Pensive]

Okay-ish. Don't know where I am going. Feeling like second-ing this song of Atif Aslam:

Hum kis gali ja rahain hein
Hum kis gali ja rahain hein
Apna koi thikana nahin
Apna koi thakana nahin

Armaanon ki anjuman mein
Be-sudh hein apni lagan mein
Apna koi afsaana nahin.

In which street are we going?
In which street are we going?
There is no place for us anywhere to stay forever
There is no place for us anywhere to stay forever

Living in the cluster of wishes
Fainting while living in ourselves
We have no special story

[Taliesin]

Alas! We aren't the Person of the Year any more! Oh, waily, waily, waily!
Well, we could be nominated as the Person of the Year this year too, but what are the chances, we ask you? Is there any precedent where the same person has been nominated the person of the year two years in a row?
Somehow we doubt it.
Oh, waily, waily, waily, our days of glory and fame are past now. Sic transit gloria mundi.

[Shadowsarin]

Hung over...gah. Damn New Years Eve ¬_¬

[Lily Adams]

Very Revolutionary.

[ktd222]

Great! I think I'm gonna whistle now.

Go to sleep Yelena. We'll all be here tomorrow interesting things up.:D

Winter, winter, winter. It has affected me. I feel winter-like; cold and in a pensive mood.

[ktd222]

Really sleepy:yawnb:

[Virgil]

Over indulged. Urrgh. Went out with some friends and I over ate and drank.

[ktd222]

Over indulged. Urrgh. Went out with some friends and I over ate and drank.

Good. It's Friday night. You should still be drinking:D Who says 40 year olds should stop partying at 12

[ktd222]

I feel so awake after a cat nap

[ktd222]

Stiff, like a dead carcas beneath the snow

[Madhuri]

What's a cat nap?

get something warm to drink KT, you'll feel better.

I feel agitated, I went to buy tickets for play and it was house-full :(

[ktd222]

They're are just really short naps, like 20, 30, or 40 minutes.


I feel agitated, I went to buy tickets for play and it was house-full

Which play?

[Madhuri]

Oh, we are having a theatre festival starting today, and I went to buy tickets for a play (Hindi play - Cotton 56, Polyester 84, you wont be knowing about it) on 13th, and any play during the festival till 20th have been sold-out on the first few days of announcement, I mean by the 2nd it was all sold out. :(

It was the first time I went for a play, and this had to happen :(

[ktd222]

It was the first time I went for a play, and this had to happen :(

Well I guess there is no other way of getting into the festival? If so, I'm sorry:( My energy is no sapped, should I even go excercise?

[Madhuri]

No, no other way, until the next festival or any other regular play. But, i'll make sure that next time I am the first one in the queue. :D

And I think you should exercise, good for mental and physical health. :)

[ktd222]

out of breath...I should excercise more often and eat less ice cream....naaa.

[Madhuri]

nah...you should eat a lot of ice-cream and exercise also, otherwise what will you work-out :D

[ktd222]

nah...you should eat a lot of ice-cream and exercise also, otherwise what will you work-out :D

There's is always something to work out;) I found that there is an inverse relationship between eating more ice cream and workiing out.
