Hey guys, I just wanted to post something that I actually found quiet true about my state. Some sure, others no..

You've gotten used to the smell of cow manure on a car trip to Raleigh. Saying "y'all" isn't just a cute expression; it actually means something. There are big labrador retrievers in the back of every truck. You give directions using KFC and Waffle House as landmarks. You still see Dale Earndheart tributes on cars. You can't imagine life without Bojangles' sweet tea Your annual church fundraiser always deals with bbq and potato salad You have a sunburn from May to October Your 'heavy winter clothing' consists of some turtleneck sweaters, a fuzzy jacket, and your daddy's boots Your family has fried chicken once a week You can tell the difference between cotton fields and tobacco fields while driving One of your neighbors has a confederate flag hanging on their front porch Those "yankees" are taking over your school/church/workplace/neighborhood... You've been "properly raised", and yankees love it when they hear you say "ma'am" and "sir" You get your carbs from biscuits, rolls, pancakes, and grits You know the difference between a "redneck" and a "hick". You own at least one surf shop or seafood restaurant shirts. No matter what those people in ohio say, we are still "first in flight" The Coca-Cola 600 is as big as the Super Bowl You prefer Chick-fil-a to KFC You know pastry is a chicken stew, not a dessert item. Every time you visit someone you're offered something to eat and a glass of tea. Your granddaddy always wore overalls and your grandma always wore an apron. In summer you have home-grown tomatoes with every meal. When it rains and the creek rises, everyone gathers to see how high it rose. You know that "chunk" the ball means to throw it. You've had a burger "all the way" - chili and slaw on it. You can recognize a copperhead and your heart drops when you see one. You have at least one relative that raises collards. Your folks have taken trips to the mountains to look at leaves. Your school classes were cancelled because of a hurricane. You know Krispy Kreme makes the best doughnut. You have an opinion about UNC. You went there and loved it, or you hate everyone who did. You know the best BBQ is found in Lexington You would rather eat at Bojangles's than McDonald's You have actually uttered the phrase "It's too hot to go to the pool" You faithfully drink Pepsi or Mt. Dew everyday of your life. You have your own secret bbq sauce. You or your neighbors have more hunting dogs than you have family members.

Ramirez: (Ya, hold on to your furry hat cuz here comes another sob story from a caring friend, yep, not only a friend but caring as well biggrin.gif )

I befriended a young (choose one) "lass" "lady" "girl" (Young girl just sounds wrong so choose lass instead) laugh.gif

As our friendship grew, so did my feelings for her, (feelings, I had some of those as well)
But unlike you I didn't tell her how I felt about her cuz I told my self that I will tell her when the time is right and all will work out.
The right time never came and I had to endeur the torture of seeing her with a nother (choose one) "guy" "girl" "kajiit" (wich ever spices up my pathetic attempt at happiness) huh.gif
I would rather have my fingers in a meat grinder and know I will still hold her afterwards than see her with another "guy" "girl" "kajiit" and never hold her again.
We drifted apart and evryday I wonder... What if?

Dude you still have a chance... Use it!

I agree that Ramirez should filll the role of friendship that this girl presently needs (when she wants you as a friend she indicates that she doesn't want to lose you totally in her life) & be there for her. More may develop later.

Channler, I have the air force logo because I am an Air Force veteran. I was a medical supply clerk stationed at Sheppard AFB, Wichita Falls, TX. biggrin.gif

I'm glad yesterday is now yesterday. Kind of a day of up and downs.

Up: It turns out that I've actually already got a degree (a BSc. in Pharmaceutical Studies) that nobody bothered telling me about. So no matter what...I have a degree.

Down: Yesterday's exam was THE exam from hell. Imagine the nastiest, evilest, vilest exam that left a good third of the year crying outside. That was the kind of exam they set. I well and trully screwed up 25% of it, meaning that I've got to scrap a pass on the other 3/4 - and that is going to be tough, considering what it was on.

It's the kind of exam where you would leave and throw up, if it weren't for the need to console friends.

And of course I have to do it all again in 12 hours. Joy. I'm going to get sleep.

Sorry to hear that Foster, hope you can get some sleep. I'm glad my mind bending exams over with a while ago, and its good to hear you have a degree.

Today to celebrate 6/6/06 I faked a demonic snap and pretended to be speaking in tounges and went and saw the Omen (a remake of Rosemary's Baby). I thought the movie was great because it wasn't one of the "scary" movies that have been coming out lately with a predictable, overdeveloped plot and a single scary part (*cough*M.NightShamalan*cough). It would draw you into a terrible scare by giving a frightning visual and audio ambiance and when you expected something, it would calm you down. When you thought it was all well and good, it would throw a fast pitch. The story was very good too, and if you've seen the original movie don't worry about predicting every line. All in all, it was pretty much a Phycho-Da Vinci Code hybrid. Also, I recommend seing it at the theatres, and beware the color red when solid.

Nothing more will develop. She made that clear 3 months ago... since then I'veb een holding onto some blind hope thatm aybe things will change, but that isn't going to happen. I just find it very difficult to be 'just friends' with her at the moment. Maybe I shouldn't have sent that email to her... but, it's done now. She's got loads of friends anyway, I doubt she'll miss me

Well, you know what is best for yourself, Ramirez. And you shouldn't settle for anything less than you want or feel comfortable with. Anyways, while you're racking your brain over her, there may be some other young ladies who may be interested in you, perhaps that you don't even notice or know about. You are quite nice looking so I wouldn't be at all surprised. Look around. smile.gif

Cmon Ibis, there definitely are other ladies who may be interested in you Ramirez. That's what I used to think when things went bad and I totally believe it's true smile.gif.

Just follow your heart and believe in yourself and you'll se how they swarm around you wink.gif.

Ah, the power of positive thinking. Yes. Well, since I don't know his circumstances but was just judging by 2 pictures and his posts, I was being more cautious. But Bofra is most certainly right - there definitely have to be other girls interested in you. Listen to Bofra.

I don't think theres anyone interested in me. I'm not even sure I know any single girls tongue.gif And... erm... thanks... although I never really take compliments well. Never sure what to make of them. tongue.gif

I gotta find job and a place to live. We've got some viewings for a few houses at various places around the city over the next week, so hopefully one of them will be good. Not sure about jobs though... gotta search around the the intarweb and hope I can find an ad for something I can actually do.

Hahaha, Minque ... that's funny. Because that example seems quaint to most Americans. We kind of wish things were still like that. It's more like the way things used to be in America but many of the examples were purely from NC and nowhere else I have heard of. biggrin.gif
