  • Is it a bad thing that I am doing kind of crappy in a class because I stay up too late and devote too much of my time helping other people?

  • Martyrs never prosper.

    I think I’ll make that into a shirt.

  • Only if that class is underwater basket weaving. Which makes no sense, because I image underwater basket weaving is very hard, but apparently the cliche’d phrase is supposed to mean something easy / asinine / stupid.

  • Just balance if you can, but I if you’re truly helping someone, then at the moment, that’s more important.

  • As long as it’s someone who needs the help.

    Not just someone you think may need the help.

  • Helping a friend always makes a person feel better. If it was just class it’s alright, but a test on the other hand is a bigger deal. I’m sure you ever you help appreciated it!

  • Sorry Jake, I bet the picture of the little girl screwed things up- Jenny Fitch…and no it’s not my kid, she’s my niece!

  • Hey Jake! I think it is great that you are available to help out people. I know when I need someone to talk to, I always appreciate having a person like yourself to listen and offer advice, but remember you have to take care of yourself and make time for yourself as well:)

  • Everything’s…okay. I’m just frustrated with Mike, again. I asked him the other night what he would do if I died.  He got ticked off and ripped into me saying how I knew he hated that type of question…that sort of thing.  Then he said “I’m not going to say I’d cry because I don’t know if I would”.  Thanks.  Glad these past 3 years have meant SO much to him that he wouldn’t even cry if I died. I didn’t think it was that tough of a question to answer, but I don’t know. I’m just curious how people would feel if I did die unexpectedly.  Life’s too short to not imagine those things and then take some sort of action from preventing someone from walking away from you, and you not telling them how you feel. Eh. Mike’s getting on my nerves!

  • I don’t like it when he acts tough.  He needs to show some emotion and tell me how he feels more often.  I’m just tired of it all!
