Advice is helpful

So my life is becoming a bit more interesting and a bit more complicated. My boyfriend leaves for basic May 27th and I'm absolutely terrified. I grew up a Navy brat and I didn't want to be pulled back into the military. I'm coming to terms with the fact that I'm willing to go through hell and back with my boyfriend. I'm scared of everything that can go wrong but I want him to be happy and I know I can learn to at least sort of like it rather than straight up hate it. At least I hope so. I'm hoping I can change my hatred for the system into something that is more like tolerating it and liking it a bit more. Fingers crossed. But what I'm looking for now is some advice, some tips and tricks with how to cope, with how to keep busy, some suggested hobbies, and maybe even tips on how to be strong enough to deal with all of this. I love him, I really do. I just want to learn how to be better, stronger, so I don't bring him down with how much I dislike this.

Help if you can

I'm sending around the link to my GoFundMe account again, trying to save my grandmother's home. My grandfather passed away a little over a week ago, and the bank is trying to collect on what she refinanced to pay his medical bills. If you can't donate please spread the word.

Help if you can!!

Alright guys, I don't normally ask for help but my family really needs this. My Opi's health is declining (grandfather), and it won't be long before cancer takes him away. My Omi (grandmother) had to refinance the house to pay for his medical bills. Now the bank says she has to pay up on the loan before December or she has to find a new place to live. She raised her kids there, she's helped raise her grandkids there....and she's safe there. She's friends with her neighbors, she has a support group, and this has been her home since she came to America. I want to help her. Please help me. I don't want her to lose the one place her husband and her shared after he dies. Thank you all.

Warning: Funk/Sad Ramble

So....everything has been effecting me a bit more than usual lately, more so than the previous years and I think it might be because it's finally hitting a bit more. How fucked up is that? My cousin's death is only now hitting me and he died four years ago in about a week. The day after my birthday. I mean....I mourned. I cried at the funeral, I was with my family and took comfort in being close to some of them, I got to say goodbye at the funeral....but I guess it never felt like goodbye. Hell....I don't know.

I few days ago I had a dream about him. We were talking outside of this building, joking, and then I had to go in for some reason. We got evacuated from the building, he told me to be careful and something else before I rushed to find his little brother and my little brother. I ran into them and turned to point out my older cousin to my brother....and he was gone. And that's when I woke up. I felt like he was there again. I thought he was still alive. That hurt like fucking hell and I have no clue why I dreamed it. The only times I've dreamed of him was soon after his death and near Samhain. Then I just got off work a bit ago and while I was blocking our inventory I could have swore I saw him out of the corner of my eyes with that damn devious smile that he had when he was about to pick me up or tickle me. I spun around and he wasn't there. Am I finally going nuts? Gods I feel like it.

Then I'm worried about the future. I graduate college in May. May. I need to have a plan, and I'm running out of time to plan and I have no clue what the hell i'm going to do. Hell, I have no clue if I'll be able to stay up where I am. My grandfather's really sick and I keep worrying and worrying. They can't do anything else anymore and now it's just a clock that's about to break. I just....I don't fucking know. I needed to ramble....so yeah.....

I LOVE DROW I PLAYED A DROW IN D&D IT WAS SO FUUUUNNN and I totally got dark glasses so I could dodge the pesky light blindness bit...

Ahem, so yes, I am going to read the Drizzt books and it will be FUN and we shall talk about them. *nodnod*

raven-wings said: O.O You read them too?!

Okay so see, I read through the Order of the Stick archives and ended up wanting more D&D-like stories. So naturally I turned to D&D tie-ins or spin-offs or whatever you call them. And the Drizzt novels are big. So, I don't, but I will as soon as the library finishes transferring them.

(Technically I'm reading Stone of Tymora now, but I've been encouraged to read them in order, which will take a couple more days.)

I followed you because of the pagan omegle game and because you were very nice and interesting and I love reading your stuff. -nods-

I remember that game! Whatever happened to it?

But thank you for following me, and for thinking I'm nice and interesting et all.
