I think, regardless of what happens, humanity shall adapt. As we always have. Adaptability is basically our super-power. :)

And as we emerge from the rubble, we will live on to continue making the same mistakes time and time again.

I have a rant.

... A coworker called in sick today, leaving just two of us to do the job of what normally four people have been doing up until a few months ago. She later confessed in a text that she was out from painkiller medicine, which is what caused her to be late yesterday in the first place because she took them just two hours before work. ... If she knows it will make her that drowsy, then why didn't she take them before sleep this time instead of AGAIN just before work? Leaving us stranded like this? Have a care about the difficulty your coworkers have to endure if you are not really that ill, you know? And this after three months ago when she called in sick because, as she confessed only recently, that she was hungover that day ... and that was the day I posted my frustrations over a mistake that was made in my haste that day still being in training and yet having to do the work of two people, that took an extra three hours of work to correct. .... Because she was out drinking before work.

I am determined to be cool with her when she comes back tomorrow, even if she kind of laughs it off like the time she mentioned calling in sick because of a hangover. I was already stressed today, but no need to be that way tomorrow if I can help it.

Hmm... I have pills like that for my migraines, it makes me drowsy and relaxed to make the pain go away. If she's like me, she may not have a choice when it comes to the "right time" to take them. Though, she should have just called in sick if that's the case.

And this after three months ago when she called in sick because, as she confessed only recently, that she was hungover that day ...

.... that kinda changes when people do that stuff deliberately. I have a coworker like that, but she actually owns up to it and is still able to do her job. Honestly, I couldn't function like that at all. Dunno how she does it.
But yeah, I think I would take that up to the boss though...

Funny how every "update" that my phone does against my will causes it to lag more and more.......... :|

How about instead of breaking my phone under the guise of "updating" you make a phone that is so awesome I cant help but ditch my old phone rather than simply rehashing the same phone with a few added ring tones and a better camera. :|

Things that bug me:
1) Finding a pair of jeans that fit, but are too long.
2) People swearing.
3) Getting writer's block when writing a story.
4) Bullying.
5) Discovering that one of my favourite shops is not in the local area.

Why do people get so bent out of shape about their name being spelled incorrectly on their Starbucks cup? I have a few friends and acquaintances who make such a fuss whether snap chatting it or putting up a picture on instagram.
It's a cup.
Just because they spelled your name with a "y" instead of an "ie" doesn't change who you are on the inside bro.
It's all going to be

That's creative! :muahah:
I have seen some really funny ones... I feel like half of them do it on purpose for kicks and gigs lol.

I had a friend who would always say his name was Tod (even though it wasn't) just to make it easy for them.. xD

My rant of the day? It would have to be about puppies. Yes, puppies. You see, we had to put our dog of fourteen years down this week, and we are looking for a puppy. The thing is, last week a lot of shelters gave away their animals for free and 1700 animals were adopted. While that is GREAT, there are hardly any puppies to take a look at and consider adopting! *sad face* I know, kind of a pathetic rant but it's a legit stress for me.

World hates me. World can't forgive me the things I've done in this life. World looks at me with disgust all the time, I can feel their evil and they can feel me feeling their evil, they don't like it, because darkness hates light and hates being exposed and just by looking at people I sometimes expose them because I live in truth and can see truth.

Today's topic was the world, for me, and the meanings thereof. And Jesus said the world would hate His followers. I don't hate them, but I loathe their presence around me. I am able to see things rather clearly in people, and it brings a lot of suffering because of it. So many people, so much hatred/love for their sins, etc...
