Tired, and a bit worried about work tomorrow.

I'll log off, go to bed, and tomorrow I'll just do my best. I'll remember the ways of thinking that help motivate me.

Depressed, feeling like SHing, and worried about going to school tomorrow.
What I'll do: I'll try to do other things to distract so that I don't SH tonight, and just try not to worry about school, and study for my test.

I'm terrified. TERRIFIED.

I'm just.. going to smile, and try and do the best I can and if that's not good enough.. so be it.

i'm sad and i want to si. i feel like i deserve to hurt, and it'll make me feel strong and help me cope with my feelings.

sadness is not really that bad and it'll just come back again after i si'd. maybe i will play some music and see if i can write it out or cry or something. i will try to go to the shops when they open and buy some food i like.

I feel tired.
I'll go to bed soon.

I have a sore back.
I'll get it checked on the weekend.

I feel worried.
I'll... wait it out and deal with it as it comes.

Feeling a tad burntout.. and just stressy..

So, I'll play around with music, and see what kind of composing I can do for the heck of it. Amuse myself with music to relax.

Music is life.. we each have our own symphony.. and we control it for the most part.. sometimes instruments drop out.. and others join in.. but when the music fades and the symphony is done.. then we have created a beautiful, personal piece. - Me.

Scared, alone, afraid.

What to do? Just talk to people I know makes good company and keeps me occupied and makes me feel comfortable, that'll make me better.
Just let time tell the story, and act accordingly. (Phrase by myself)

very sad.

and i'm going to do what my T said, and make sure tomorrow I get some exercise and socialise a little even if I don't feel like it. And right now I'm going to keep myself busy and distracted with little things so I try not to think about it.
