Lets talk about life.

  1. You literally took the thought that have been stewing in my head for a year and slapped it onto this thread.

    Glad to meet someone who shares the same opinion.
    • I have discalculia. Its a form of dyslexia, I guess, for Maths.
    • I'm the skinniest and unsportiest person I know.
    • Since I did a thing for games I like, I'll do one for TV Programmes. I like Doctor Who, Sherlock, Broadchurch, The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, The 100, and Game of Thrones (kinda...).

  2. So my life...
    Well, My name is Justin. I was born in Lawrence, MA 1999, born in a hospital where I was the second child to be born. I am an Identical twin brother. I moved to Wisconsin when I was about three years old and pretty much lived there ever since. In current time, I am 15 years old and Freshman in high school. I am quite a procrastinator when it comes to homework but I always find a way to do it. I love my HS and everyone in it (yes I know, lots of love). I am usually around a 3.5 to a 3.8 GPA student. I've probably been depressed once in my lifetime about 2 years ago but that went away thanks to all of the friends and people i've met on the internet & in real life. I am about 5'6-5'7 -ish and I enjoy lots of sports such as Swimming, baseball, soccer/futbol, and close related sports. I am the type of person with a funny, smart personality and very social.

    -I've traveled only to the whole east coast so far. From New York City to the peak of Grandfather Mt. & have been to all of the rides in Six Flags.

    -My favorite hobbies are Photography, Swimming, camping, coding (a fair bit) and playing Minecraft... a lot. I am not an Xbox person nor a playstation person so no interest in the consol category. :)

    -Speaking of Minecraft, I've been around ever since update 1.0.
    I am glad to be able to share my life. Thank you. :)

  3. Hey, some of you may know me. My name is Conner and I'm a Junior in high school ( 16 years old ). I wouldn't be classified as a "popular" kid or a "nerd", these words are labels that I don't believe in. I talk to or hangout with anyone really. Throughout my high school career I've been struggling with school, but this year ( as of now ) I have a satisfactory grades. I am apart of my school's baseball team, and it's really the only way I can let myself go and have fun.

    Rewinding things back to 2006, my parents divorced ( whose parents aren't nowadays? ). That days was the first day in my life that I genuinely felt sad. I was young but it took me a few weeks to get over. At the end of those weeks I realized that my parents were happy and if they were happy, then so was I.

    8th grade was one of the hardest years to get though. I felt like no one liked me and isolated myself from people as much as I could. I felt like everyone was out to get me. I've contemplated suicide many times...the only thing that kept me from doing it was my family. It would have been selfish, it'd hurt them way more than it would hurt mine. My grandfather committed suicide before I was a year old, I wouldn't make my father go through that again.

    I try to stay happy, but I can't. I try to move on, but everyone labels me on my past actions. People seem to remember the bad things more than the good things. These labels try to run from get pulled back, and they bring up bad memories. I know I've done terrible things, but who hasn't? The doing of one thing shouldn't label you for the rest of your life.

    I ran away from the real world in search for happiness. I joined Emc and was instantly accepted. And honestly, you guys kept me happy. However, I've been here long enough to gather up an apparent bad reputation, just like in the real world. This is why I've been limiting my time here.

    I wouldn't say that I've developed depression but some of my closest friends today has it. Like xI_LIKE_A_PIGx said, it's not what you think it is; it's a tough mental illness to cure. I do everything I can to help.

    Other peoples' happiness make me happy. The sight of a smile and the sound of a laugh is truly contagious. No one ever believes me when I say it, but when you're happy then so am I. Maybe it's what I've done in the past that made them not trust me.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    xI_LIKE_A_PIGx, I'm extremely grateful for you to post this thread. Writing about tough times and your life story can help many people, including myself. Honestly, I started crying while writing all of this. Posting this really made me think about everything. I hope you guys post too, it WILL help.

  4. All true. Especially this. That's my only motivation to get my grades back to their former superiority. The main issue is I'm just a really bad procrastinator, I'd rather sit here and think about catching up then actually doing it, and that's an issue. I've been getting better about it and my grades have been improving as of about a week ago (since my first HS game) but they still need to be better. As for the easy classes, that's probably what I will be doing next year, but with still one or two honors classes. I took two standard classes in 7th grade and they were the easiest As I've ever had in my life. Probably easier than my assistant class was...
  5. I am 14 and a freshman in high school. My friends are very supportive and share my interests. I am part of my high school's marching band and play the mellophone (marching french horn). Both of my parents are teachers, and, against popular belief, make almost no money. I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I do really well in school and throughout the past few years have made top of class many times.

    I mostly struggle with treating irrational people equally. I LOVE science, but can't understand why people don't realize that Science is provisional and will always be changing whether they like it or not. I believe that there are no such things as limits in Science such as Absolute Zero (BROKEN!!!), the speed of light being the fastest speed possible (BROKEN!!! Some neutrinos imbeciles!), and Planck Temperature. I don't understand how some people are such hypocrites when they say that all religious people are closed minded and won't accept the facts while they are closed minded by believing every stinking theory and forgetting that Science is provisional. :mad:

    DISCLAIMER:
    Wow! I've been wanting to say this for a long time. I am just getting it off my chest. I am not trying to accuse anyone and don't want a flame war, so I am sorry if I have hurt your feelings in any way. :) I take Science very seriously if you can't tell. :p

  7. I don't think krysyy would make you a member of the Contribution Team if you didn't have her respect, as well as that of the community. :)

    Just my 2 cents.

  8. I said a lot of bad things about the staff in the year (up until about 3-4 months before I become a Contributor) before I became part of the team, and I was even told that I would never become a Contributor because of the way I had acted in the past. This is why I was amazingly mind blown as to why I was even considered to become part of the team.

    Seriously, though; seeing that 'conversation of acceptance' (<-- wat?) while driving home from Wales and struggling to write a reply out on a phone is one of the happiest moments of my life in recent memory :p

    EDIT: That's actually kind of sad now that I think about it... :p

    "Team Fortress 2
    You've Played: 889 Hours"

    That honestly sums up my life.

    I honestly don't have much I do. I spend a lot of time gaming, which then leads to me questioning my existence about once a month, breaking down in the middle of the night and crying a bit. :/ I'm currently trying to find something to do with my life, so if any of you have any suggestions, that would be great :)

  13. How I got here/My life on Minecraft: I'm a person who has lived in this planet for around 16.5 years... my journey of video games was very boring until one important day came... I went to my friend's (nick_godoy) house to do a Spanish project (2 years ago). He showed me an awesome game with blocks n' stuff... called Minecraft. Then he enter this server called EMC and told about it... couple days later I brought a Minecraft Code and enter EMC... and played. Joined Mumble, hardly speaking, met everyone there. Became friends with everyone here, then became rude and stuff like that and left Mumble. Then started to play Osu! and not Minecraft. I decided to go back to Minecraft to play on different servers... then skyped with Elite, did some weird stuff and played an MMO called Dragon's Nest. Stuff happend and we don't co-op anymore. Elite went back to EMC and later so did I. I went back to Mumble and got bored of it (was treated badly for things I did back then). Now I only play on EMC with music to not get boredom....

    My in real life self: I'm a junior in highschool who hates freshmen since they stand in the halls and take up space. I mostly spend my time on Minecraft and other stuffs. I watch anime, but now since life and yeah. Nothing bad has ever happend to me, only postive things (I may have a high amount of luck). I also like them vocaloids. I have a semi-busy life, clubs (only 2) and hopefully a job...

  15. I like to see you all like my format. Personally when I don't have much time I find it quick and easy to read. ;)
  16. Personally, I feel as though that format isn't that sincere ... Yes, it does say information in different categories about each person - and is easy to read. However, I feel like if each person does it, it doesn't have as deep of a meaning as if he/she wrote it in a non-conformable (pre-formatted) way.

  17. Quick story? I can cope.
    14 Year old from Southern Cali.
    Somewhat stable. My entire life i've had a tendency to explode when i felt threatened emotionally, even though i've mostly done away with it by now.
    How am I feeling? That's a split argument. I'm feeling very satisfied from my social life and gaming life.. but there are some areas, such as my love life, where I feel quite sad and heartbroken. But overall, I'd say I'm doing fine.
    Good grades, doing good in school, have practically befriended EVERYONE in my class. Bullying is absolutely nonexistent in my life.
    Religion, fun fun topic. Im Roman Catholic, and pretty strongly too. But I'm relatively open to new ideas such as evolution, and am very liberal on a lot of subjects, but still remain religious.
    What matters to me? Friends, Family, myself, and school. Games take a lower priority, even though i don't really show it.
    Now the hardest thing I've been having to live up against has been troubles my friends have been having and trying to keep them afloat emotionally. Since I talk to practically everyone in my class, I see these events unfold right in front of my eyes. I hear a person tell me a secret, and slowly watch as it leaks across the entire class, but at no fault to myself. My other friends have been going through some tough times, especially one. He has been absolutely beaten and probably depressed from his "crush gone wrong" as I'd say. You may say it can't do that at this age, but it appears to do the charm pretty well. Now, I don't think he's quite suicidal, but he's definitely sad.

    And thats a quick summary of me.

  18. Hello all, I'm Matt (or Brad depending on the time). I'm an identical twin and we look absurdly similar. I can't really say I've had that many bad things happen to me in my life (besides being 1 or a set) so I apologize in advance If this is a bit drab, but I will try to make up for that in cool fonts.

    First, Both me and my brother are on our school swim team here in California,(undefeated for 4 years! Woo!) we are seniors in high school and we both are 17 (duh). On top of that we both maintain a 4.0+ gpa (he has a 4.2 and I'm at 4.07) I also do volleyball and band. He has always been the smart one and I'm the social one, but I would say were both pretty intelligent. I just started band this year and I play the base drum which hardly qualifies as an instrument.

    Second, being as we are identical twins we get a lot of questions asked that are often repeated, here are the top 7 with answers:
    1. Are you guys brothers?
    yes
    2. Are you guys twins?
    yes
    3. Do you share a room?
    no
    4.Do you share cloths?
    yes
    5.Do you share thoughts?
    no
    6. If I punch you will he feel it?
    are you stupid?
    7. Can your parents tell you apart?
    yes, they are my parents, I really think you should see a mental health specialist.
