July 29, 201016 yr Just feel unique. Leave out the lonely. :yes: Ryan, I can tutor you in therapist skills! Alright, here are the basics: 1. Listen 4 times more than you talk. 2. Use your face. It can convey sympathy, mild outrage, or simply that you care. But avoid pity, anger, or disappointment. 3. Understanding, not advice.
July 29, 201016 yr You also can't feel lonely anymore! Besides, you're still the one they go to with their questions about NY.
July 29, 201016 yr I was born in NYC! Right after the fireworks. :P And I posted on Will's profile. Heh heh heh...
July 29, 201016 yr Hm, if that's what you're supposed to do, the only thing i'm not doing right is the face thing. Hm... Thank-you Livvy. ^^ I'm pretty sure she dosen't live in the same part as you though, CAV. :yes: Unless you live by a beach...
July 29, 201016 yr @Divya: Really? That's pretty snazzy. @Ryan: In this case, the most important thing is for her to know you care. Losing a grandparent isn't the same as losing a parent, but you've both shared a loss.
July 29, 201016 yr Ohmygosh I forgot to say I am sorry Ryan!!!!! I really hope that your mom feels better and I hope that you are ok. *sends hug to Arizona along with piece of mushed up blueberry pie*
July 29, 201016 yr I love how there are four stars on this topic. -pokes the FMs- Yeah, I try to do that. And yeah... That's why i'm trying to treat this very carefully. Edit: Thanks Divya. ^^ @CAV, yeah, but you can't take a 30 second walk and be in the water, now can you? :P
July 29, 201016 yr My therapist skills need some work. o.o Did you guys know that I am a psychologist? Seriously, it's what I have my degrees in. :) There's a little info on me.
July 29, 201016 yr but you can't take a 30 second walk and be in the water, now can you? I can. My yard is like a swamp. <_< EDIT: Ooh, cool Sammy! So, from a professional standpoint, how was my therapy advice? Kinda correct maybe?
July 29, 201016 yr @CAV, yeah, but you can't take a 30 second walk and be in the water, now can you? :P No. Besides, I can't swim. I haven't gone to Coney Island in a year, and the Coney Island beach in 2.
July 29, 201016 yr Can't swim? :O But but... I love swimming! I'm not very good at it, but I enjoy it. This is very random, but I just saw my cat curled up on the bed, and I remembered that HunHun (my cat) let me use her as a teddy bear last night. ^_^
July 29, 201016 yr Well, if you only tried once, you still might be able to learn if you try again. I learned to swim with floaties, and then I learned to swim without them when mum chucked me in the deep end and I had to get air to scream for help. Cruel? :yes: Effective? Also :yes:.
July 29, 201016 yr Lulz, I only learned how to swim last summer, I would have preffered to use that time DESTROYING KRAWK ISLAND but I didn't have much choice in the matter. :P
July 29, 201016 yr I think we have been on the topic of swimming multiple times, now havent we? :) And thats me! I'm a star!!!
July 29, 201016 yr *headwalls trying to think of something* I'm stumped again. I suck at making topics. How about baseball?
July 29, 201016 yr Ryan - THAT IS NOT FAKE! THEY ARE TAKING OVER THE WORLD!!!!! :P CAV - Baseball is strange. But the Phillies are doing good!
July 29, 201016 yr ANI!! Hi! :D Whatever topic y'all decide, I'll be working on another drawing. I don't feel like writing today; I feel more like exploring photoshop. But I don't know what to draw!
