What a mess of day!

28 January, 2012 - 6:08am — Mogul

1. My school has been changing the letter and schedule of my class.
2. The new math teacher quit his job for some personal reason
3. I had cancealed my appointment with the neuropsychologist
4. Went to Medellín for nothing
5. Nico is getting really weird: we used to talk every day, make eye contact a lot, have unnecessary touches, but since the last 2 days of school last year, we started separating and stopped talking. Every day is worse!! Idk what to do with him.
And right now I heard some steps near my room and all my family is tired and sleeping, and then other weird sounds were by the door, but nothing happened! I'm FUCKING SCARED!! D:

Sounds like...

...a fairly ordinary day. After all... you've survived! :)

As for Nico's behavior... any chance that it may be a mild case of paranoia on your part? If he doesn't "take action"... do so yourself... and see what happens. :)

And... no update on Andrew?

0 updates from Andrew!

Well,

maybe it's just time to lay it on the line with Nico. One of you has to say that there's something there and if that doesn't happen just forget about him and move on to bigger and better things. You don't have to take his crap or his friends crap either. I wish you luck!

And about the footsteps, maybe it's just your house. My house is almost all Yellow Pine and the Oak floors creak like hell at night, the staircase especially. lol

I just need some time alone

I just need some time alone with him and tell him what I feel.

The footsteps idk and it wasn't the house, because the floor it's ceramic, yesterday it was all cloudy and cold and in Colombia there are many posibilities of witch craft, especially in rural areas!

Up until you used that word:

Witchcraft...

I had envisaged you being a very bright (and possibly gay) teen who happened to have qualified for admission to a very academically prestigious high school.

Where did I go wrong?

btw... my fingers are crossed (that's not witchcraft... at least, I don't think so) for Andrew's acceptance. :)

Then... Nico will have to acknowledge that he's got a competitor! Right?

Why did you go wrong?

29 January, 2012 - 3:50pm — elph

Trust me... I haven't the slightest idea! :)

I'm just not able to get my mind "around" thinking of you as one believing in witchcraft!

What's your explanation?

29 January, 2012 - 4:38pm — Mogul

My explanation

My explanation is:

Witchcraft exist because in Colombia the church didn't killed witches, they hide really well.
Some friends mom, when she was making the rural (if you study medicine in Colombia you have to go to some rural area and help the people there) and she started to get really ill and other things I don't remember. Someone took her to some white witch and there she puked fabric, the witch told her that at 12 at night she had to take a bath in honey and the one that made that will suffer the same. She did it. The next day some nurse that was jealous of her happened the same thing (she was the one that did that)

Some teacher once had a friend that his gf gave him some thing made with origami, had many spikes and she told him "this is very special to me, let's put it somewhere!". The next days he wasn't the same, he did everything his gf told him, he stopped hanging out with his friends. They broke up, my teacher started dating him and her room always had the sound of crushing things, but it was tidy when her mom checked, weird things happened in her house, once she was talking to him, she was alone, and she heard that someone was listening the conversation in other phone, but there was nobody. They stopped dating. Then he dated another girl, it happened worse to her, but she went to some white witch and she said that something spiky had him chained to someone. She told my teacher and she realized that it was the gift from his ex. They trash it and things went back to normal.

There are many other stories, but they are very long!

Interesting anecdotal events!

However, it's very common for people to falsely assume that two events are directly related (i.e., one "causes" the other) when, in fact, they're nothing but two events --- among the multiple millions of other events occurring at the same time --- selectively chosen to make it appear that they are directly related!

However... witchcraft can in some instances function as a placebo: If one becomes convinced that something will happen (e.g., improved personal health), one's brain may be able to stimulate an internal curative response. The problem is that it is impossible to prove that the "suggestion" produced the cure... the probability being that it would have happened on its own quite naturally!

Geez Elph.

The guy believes witchcraft exists, it doesn't make him any less intelligent than you or I.

29 January, 2012 - 11:25pm — elph

Less intelligent?

Is that what you infer from what I wrote?

If so... much too hasty rush to judgment! :)

However, if you understand that I put slight credence in any "belief" for which only anecdotal evidence can be offered in support... you'd be on quite firm ground!
