Thank you all for your kind words xlove It really helps, and now I'm feeling a bit better now.
And my hosting mistakes are not as grave compared to the last time hosting with Robert, but it doesn't matter now. At least I can showcase my talent for us to enjoy :)

And you've showcased that talent to us time and time again here on the forum. We each have areas where we struggle and that's ok. We should focus on what we're good at and what we enjoy doing. Our dreams and our passions. We shouldn't dwell on our weak points and give them important energy when that juice can be spent on other more valuable things. Not just anyone can be a whizz with numbers, in the same way not just anyone can have such a fine eye for design and art. It's one of the things that makes life beautiful. We're all unique, with each of us having something that we're good at.

Feeling not very well, having a bad cold while battling on gloomy weather. And not in my best mood today having to stop my nose from running itself up from time to time :(

Having a bad cold is never a nice Thing, especially in summer. :( When having a bad cold, I always drink much ginger tea, inhale with peppermint / eucalyptus oil and suck Drops like a world championship. Hope you will soon be fine again! :)

I think this has been one of the most emotionally draining days of my life. Two separate friends have their cats die on the same day, one of which results in a work argument between me and some others because no one would come to cover the rest of her shift so she could go say bye to her cat before it was put down. Then hours of comforting and making me value my cat all the more. thank god there is only 57 minutes left in the day. XD

Appart from my usual head ache and tiredness of work, I’m pretty fine today. I feel positive, that I can get over all the pain I’ve felt in the last months. I’m definitely going to strenghten my stoic side during the break I want to take, and let go all the anger in me. I want to be a good person, no matter what. That’s how I’ve been educated and that’s what I’m going to do. Not love everyone, but not hurt anyone either.
Look, I’m so in a ‘I don’t care’ and ‘positive’ mode that I’ve been watching many videos of tarantulas (my phobia to arachnids is veeeery very strong) and I’ve enjoyed them! :lol: :lol:

Well I'm a bit shocked because I found out a treasure in the library hahahaha. I was examining every book on the first shelf of the fiction section. My duty was to assign each book a genre, because we are going to divide them according to the genre (now they are all mixed). And I found some erotic books that are truly scandalous!!! 50 Shades of Grey is a child story compared to them! I've never read anything so explicit, and I started laughing alone hahahaha. I know we must have different books, different genres for different tastes, but seriously? :lol: I've never seen so many d*cks, c*cks, t*ts, p*ssy, semen in a single sentence/paragraph. loool this made my day :lol:

I can literally see you: laughing while people pass you by and thinking you are reading a humorous book. xheat But no - it was a book about well, cucumber and holes. xrofl3

My health has gradually improved but not my monotonous life which I'm enduring right now like a silent prisoner. And I've come to the point that everyone, even my cherished friends, seems to abandon me when I needed them the most, which is depressing for an eclectic one like me. Now with no one to comfort me or cheer me up, I'll have to rely on my faith in God if I don't want my life to end up so early because of recurring feelings of sadness and despair.

I had a dream recently that I was running around a grassy plain chasing butterflies, when everything turned gloomy. My youthful strength suddenly got caught up by the ageing elements, reducing me to nothing but a lifeless skeletal shell. I stayed up very still until some traces of light came, ending the dream.

But no matter what happens and what I'm feeling right now, life still goes on and so does hope.

The monotony of life is difficult, and we each can find ourselves in situations we don't want to be in. We hold the power though to lift ourselves up out of the mud, and beautiful moments can be painted from any situation. Any bad moment is just that, a bad moment. Life is full of ups and downs like a roller coaster, and sometimes that track we're riding on travels a very straight line. When your roller coasters path is uneventful, throw your hands up in the air and bring the colour yourself in those moments. There's clay around us everywhere, and yeah, it's difficult to shape it into exactly what we want to see, but dammit let's try! Always hold close to you your passions and dreams, and never let go.

I know i'm just a weird person on a Eurovision forum, but feel free drop me a pm if ever you need someone to talk to, Eulaliya. I care about you and don't want you ever feeling down. Your presence on this forum has brought me a lot of joy over the past couple of years.

Eulaliya I understand you so much... but you know it's only a temporary phase, a challenge of life that you have to overcome, and I'm sure you are strong enough to do it! As Rainy said too, if you ever need to talk, vent your feelings, whatever, don't hesitate to send me a PM. It helps a lot telling someone what's in your mind, trust me.


As for me, you won't believe it but I'm excited because I started preparing Christmas 'gifts' for my friends, family and colleagues at work. They are handmade, there are many people I want to give one, and I don't know if I'll be able to do it, that's why I'm starting now :lol: because if I make a mess I have time to change idea and do something different. I love so much making DIY stuff... xheart usually I'm not a loving person at all. I avoid giving kisses or hugs, I don't say with words how much I appreciate people around me, so this is always my way to show it. I give my time.

Today I slept only 4h and worked 10h. In the last hour I didn’t even know what I was doing. So now I’m dead of tiredness, have head ache, in less than 6 hours I have to wake up again, but I can’t sleep because it’s too hot and some stupid people keep laughing outside in the street.

I feel fairly stable at the moment but a couple of hours ago, I fainted whilst I was pouring water from the fridge. Time stood still in that moment and I think during it that I experienced a panic attack followed by me then collapsing onto the floor for about 15 minutes. When I came more to, my hands were numb and shaking, and I had goosebumps down my back and was shivering. People in others countries are mocking the UK for how we cope with exotic weather, but for people with health problems such as myself it’s actually nightmarish what we can experience when living with temperatures our bodies aren’t used to. I’m constantly short of breath, panting like a dog. It’s making me feel extremely sick, pretty much 24/7. I’m glad it rained half an hour ago. One day I will destroy the sun. The sun is so unsexy and ruins my stride. The bastard (it deserves my swear to be honest).

Aww poor Kai, hope you will feel alright and well in spite of the excruciating weather xheart
Here we have used to high temperatures during tropical summer season around March-June, and as a person born in a tropical country, I have managed to stay cool in spite of temperatures sometimes exceeding 40 degrees :) With the miracle of water therapy, cool refreshments and airconditioning, of course!

I feel better at the moment, thank you Eulaliyaxheart I’m downstairs right now as it’s cooler. I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep in my room tonight as it’s like an oven in there. Gosh, 40 degrees would probably be the end of me. I think it’s different when you’ve experienced something your whole life and your body is used to it. Water therapy sounds interesting. At the moment all I have to cool me down is a piece of cardboard (swanky, I know).

I found today very uncomfortable at work (the roof is covered in skylights and there is no air con only a single fan!) and I'm a cold-blooded person who loves the hot weather so I can only imagine what it's like for "hot" people :lol: Hope you're feeling better RW!

Don't forget to drink a lot of water! And make sure that in the hottest time of the day your home is a bit dark. I don't like hot weather but yeah, you still get used to it. I have to XD look my next week:



And this idiot here (me) many days comes back home at 16h on foot (around 1,7km of distance) :lol: no wonder I need to rest as soon as step on my bedroom.

No, it was nothing serious. I was given some orange juice and sth to eat and i immedietly started to feel better. I was sent home after this incident ofc. xrofl2

Yes, showing our solidarity by helping each other in those horrible moments is the only thing that can save us from this madness...

P.S.Well, don't they say that "expensive perfumes come in small bottles"? :D
