@kitalpha hart:
That's a possibility! Although its "haunted" reputation goes back 10-20 years of people saying they've experienced something.
The owners are kinda like me where they are skeptical of it. Like, the building is old, and SEEMS like it'd be haunted based on appearances and history lol
I think that if someone believes a place is haunted, they're more likely to experience something weird because that's how their subconscious mind is interpreting incidences.
But it has apparently spooked people enough that I believe 6 years ago, the owners had the school side of the building blessed by a priest and he set crucifixes above the door frames. When she told me about this, it interested me a lot because there's a sealed door in the basement classroom, kinda tucked at the far end where you almost wouldn't notice it there unless you use the massage table near to it. The priest stopped at that door and rattled on in his tongue, which the school owner didn't understand but she said he sounded a little more tense and spent an extra moment in that spot. She doesn't believe in the hauntings, but she was like "that made me wonder a bit, although I didn't ask him about it... I just let him do his thing"
That's where I heard my name called from several months back o;
One of my classmates heard it too
and also where I got hit with that random panic I mentioned, that's the table I was dressing. I use that table because no one else likes to and its more quiet.

Everyone thinks my school is haunted. The building was originally built in 1881 (dated in an old newspaper they found inside, which is now kept in a room along with other random old items) and its been through several changes. It wasn't a school until like, 30 years ago.
Whenever people start talking about it being haunted, I'm always a skeptic. One person asked me directly and I was like "no, I don't think it's haunted. I think there's just a lot of negative energy gathered here from all the stressed out students and staff" (and also the potent toxicity of some people that comes out a lot on campus).
Then some weird things happened to me right after I voiced that. Like hearing my name being called and "seeing things". I wave it all off like it's nothing, but there was one moment that I was alone and dressing a massage table. I wasn't even thinking about that sort of thing when I turned around and got hit with a HUGE wave of fear, as if something startled me, but nothing was there/nothing happened. It just pinned my nerves for a second.
Months later, today, I'm texting someone about ghosts (randomly) while sitting in the clinic basement, at a small dining table to eat on my break. And I was like
"lols everyone thinks its haunted here but I don't think so. There's just so much stress here, its bound to gather up in the atmosphere and make us feel tense"
Before I finish typing, I hear something make a loud click behind me, like something small fell on the hard floor. There's a small room a short distance behind where I sat, with the door open. Had filing cabinets and a coffee table in there. I turn the light on to check and there's no loose items that could've fallen. Aside from the plug end of a phone that wasn't hooked up. I tapped it around but didn't replicate the sound, so thought them walls be creaking. I go back to my chair, my eyes on the floor, and then I sit and go back to my biz.
I ran around for a bit, then came back down and sat in my spot again. Again, I hear the noise, a little louder. I don't pay attention. A moment later, I hear a fainter noise, I almost didn't notice it but it was the same direction.
Then I get up for the billionth time and that's when I found a pen sitting on the floor right behind my chair. It wasn't there before, because I DID look at the floor in that spot, and there were no surfaces behind me that it could've come from. I picked it up and dropped it a few times and replicated the sounds I was hearing, the last one that was more faint sounded like a short roll of the pen on the wooden floor.
I got excited like
duuuuuuuuuuuude :vanora_xd:
I still don't think its haunted but I love when weird shiz happens that makes you think for a moment

"she has a GIFT for art so she can help" referring to me..

@koneko:
If I KNOW a person, I don't mind them in my space a little bit, just with... supervision lol and not for loooong periods of time.
But I usually dont know/remember who these people are. When I DO know, it doesn't make it any better lmao
I tried sitting with them a moment ago and yeah they're... really the type of people who want to be the only ones talking. It's a peeve to get cut off so much you can't even contribute to a 1x1 conversation... P:

My parents have that "family is always welcome no matter what" idea which, sounds great until you realize your family sucks xD
Literally ever since I was a small child, every time they have a family member, old or young, come to stay with us for a night or more, THEY DO SOMETHING RUDE OR WEIRD.
I've had my blankets shredded, other items broken, shower curtains sliced repeatedly with clean cuts that we could only assume were from a knife once (which mom blamed on the cat even though they were above my head. We replaced the curtains and it happened again--then stopped after that person left lol)
I've had money stolen and found... gross things and stains in my bed that someone slept in. I was 15 at the time and a prude so I was extra pissed =__=
I've even had visitors that were so awful, I had to come and go through the window of my bedroom to go to work at the time cause if I passed by him he would harass me to hell.
This time its someone my parents haven't seen since they were kids.
My first impression was that they're kinda rude. They always have their backs to me and don't let me speak at all when I was trying to greet them for the first time. They act like I'm not even here lol When I leave for work or when I come back, they just act like no one is moving past them trying to wave to them.
The guy, I guess he's my mom's friend or something? idk if they're legit family or not.
He's using the jack and jill bathroom between my sis and my room (she isn't home so he goes through her room to get to it, plus I have less walking space cause I sleep on a floor mat lol).
and he like, rapidly locks the doors and just starts GROANING.
I'm thinking okayyy... maybe he's just struggling with moving around cause he's kinda older. Maybe late 50's, probably older if he takes after the family's young face syndrome. But this groaning continues, and continues, and in the shower it gets even weirder sounding and I'm just cringing. I want to DOUBT its what it sounded like but I never know.. My family has been known for doing the wrong things in the wrong times or places -___-
When he's done, he sprays axe on
I know its axe cause of the smell.
continuously spraying
for a solid minute
its seeping through the door and its burning my eyes IN THE NEXT ROOM ENTIRELY
Why are people so annoying.
I need to shower for work but god damn, if I can break through that cloud of chemicals just to pop open the window..

*edit* never mind I found advice elsewhere <3
I joined this mail-in sticker exchange that one of my favorite artists is hosting!
imsoexcited
I already ordered my batch of stickers to send out. Figured I'd just wing it when it came to finding the best way of mailing them around the country.
But I have probably only dealt with postal services (outside of normal letters that inevitably get lost) once or twice so I'm a hella newb.
What would you recommend if you know the best manner of sending these things out, while also ensuring they reach their destination?
Like should I pack them in a normal envelope and (if its even a thing) pay extra for insurance on it?
Or should I buy some of those bubble-lined envelopes for better security of the stickers, and insurance on that?
do they even make those small enough for a simple 3" sticker :vanora_xd:
I'd ask my post office but people in my town more often tend to get cranky af, so the internet peeps are nicer..

Posted in I'm feeling so happy today, have some
Posted 6 years ago

Besides a final I have to take online tonight (its open-book and not timed, so no stress), I have all of today to do NOTHING.
Its been so long,
It feels so good.
I keep having these moments where I want to habitually check the clock or my calendar. When I went to bed last night I actually lost my phone (and its perpetually on silent cause of my massage sessions) and I started to stress a little because I thought I needed the alarms. But. I didn't. xD
So I slept without knowing where my phone was and woke up needing to remind myself "ITS FINE I DONT NEED ALARM TODAY"
Then I realized I have time to read books so that's where my heart is ;v; <333
I feel so stable and comfortable today <3

dude and then today this grown ass man is walking by my register
stops to tell me he likes my bangs, said it looks pretty. but he WASN'T hitting on me, he just kept walking but sincerely needed to make my day xD
my bangs are a dang mess, soaking up my breath that's pouring out of the side of my mask, they literally frizz out from it.
these compliments are catching me offffffff but it's very nice ;v;

@lilmisskushy:
Hahaha yeah, I know right now when people say "I don't see color" it tends to have a more closed-minded meaning to it. When I say it, what I mean is that I'm not judging the colors, like how I view someone isn't changing based on that. I get more interested in the concept of energies and such xD
and yeah he is a good person, they still talk to this day!
