Stress Survey
Posted Dec 10, 2003
Hiya all! 
So what do you think are the 10 most stressful things in the real world?
Write them down and post them to me here, also if you would, with the name of the continent you live on, but this is optional so you don’t have to.
If you can’t think of ten, which I’m sure you can 
, this is the real world we’re talking about here 
, post as many as you can think of.
I’ll publish the results on my page after Christmas sometime, but this depends on how many results I get
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Experiment

I am looking for a friend researcher to do an experiment concerning my space and the Friends list in the alabaster skin as I think there may be a problem in the programming.

Autobiography
Posted Apr 10, 2003
I find it difficult to speak about myself. Not as you might understand to reflect on personal matters but to communicate information regarding my feelings. I am an intensely private individual as is everyone in my family. It is even hard to decide what I should say.
This is a philosophical problem: Can we ever be sure about who we truly are? But even this question leaves me feeling uncomfortable for reasons I have yet to ascertain. I am aware that I am failing I my task of writing an autobiography but this will be the fifth of a number of attempts at what is for me, a difficult matter.
Identity is, amongst other things, a social matter. One knows oneself in relation to others. A private individual thus has fewer opportunities to see his or her own reflection in the reactions of others. How then to know oneself? How to know that one’s inner thoughts represent anything other than exactly that? Can others perceive my innermost thoughts? The questions are relevant. These questions I will grapple with in order to write an autobiography.
Words fracture reality. Silence is laden with meaning. I am a good listener but offer few opinions. My skills are technical rather than political. I imagine a future as a solitary worker rather than as a leader of men. I prefer working quietly by myself to group work. It suddenly occurs to me that I have strung together a few sentences about myself and do not know whether to be astonished or whether I feel my privacy has been violated. I am uncertain once again while realizing I have begun on the task of writing an autobiography.
Others might be able to read me like a book but I cannot be text and reader at the same time. Torture. I smile, knowing I feel a little looser, but unsure where this is heading. Now again I am serious and unsure why moods change so rapidly.
Is anyone aware of this going on in my head?
The irony is that I can find myself too intrusive and we must leave the matter there.

My foots close encounter with a pitch fork.
Posted Mar 3, 2003
Sounds painful, yes you bet it was. There I was seeing to my family's garden when I stuck the pitchfork right through my left foot. Two days in a hospital and one nasty tetanus booster jab later they sent me home in a taxi. My foot is now heavily bandaged and I have to hop if I want to go anywhere. I'm lucky my dad has the time to drop me off every day or I wouldn't be able to come to h2g2 (and that would be a shame) .Argh my foot is still killing me even though I did it last Wednesday. Please provide support (or I'll fall over).
