School is stressful. Family situation is stressful. Not really sure what to do about either.

Take a deep breath, let it out slowly. Think about what you can reasonably change or do to help lessen the stress even a teensy bit then try going from there, if you can. I hope things get better for you.
It wasn't too bad. I ended up working 12 hours, which will give me a bit extra next week.
Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.
I acknowledge it is an illusion every day yet everytime someone says I can't do anything I just say 'Screw you, I'm awesome' and I do it anyway. It's a mild amount of self confidence while accomplishing a small task that then becomes something you can ride later. "Oh yeah, I did it, deal with it' and then you're super awesome. I even have a shirt that says you may go blind by my awesomeness. If you put on an 'air' long enough, your mind accepts it as a reality.
I find it helps to put on a front and act like I'm awesome. Sooner or later, I start believing it. Later on, I realise that I was awesome all the time, and I just didn't know it.
It might be some sort of psychosomatic reaction at the end, but it still makes me feel better.
Edit: I just realised that my post paraphrases Munsia's post.

I'm starting to like myself less than I did before. I didn't think it was possible to like myself less, but I'm managing it.
I recommend a five minute walk in a flurry of large, fluffy snowflakes when applicable. They have this magical ability to melt away all the ache from a back breaking, soul crushing day.
I actually learned about the puppy bowl for the first time yesterday. I have missed out on a great deal of "awws" and various other cuteness-overload-vocabulary, it seems.
I heard in a TED talk that if you stand for two minutes with your chest puffed out and your hands on your hips like Superman, your body will tell your brain you're awesome. Great for crises of confidence, just do it someplace private.
First came the shock, which had me pacing around my downstairs sort of scream-laughing. Then I had to stand outside (in the snow, in my underoos) because I was nauseous and feeling faint. Then the swelling started, I lost the ability to lift my legs and had to have my boyfriend carry me up the steps and arrange me on top of our bed. THEN came the pain.
Luckily, I managed to nap off most of the pain. Now just mild discomfort, thank GOD I don't work again until Monday.
All of this because I decided to buy new socks.

Yoga has certain power poses where you do something similar. It's funny how these things are hailed as new but they have simply been around for a long time. It is only now we begin to better understand the science behind it, but so many discoveries are simply rediscoveries of things we already long knew.

I really hate the way the Olympics are broadcast. They should be streamed free over the internet to everyone, regardless of what device they use to view, or where their isp is based. Selling the rights to the highest bidder, and allowing that bidder to control what you can watch, when, and how, seems completely at odds with the spirit of the world event. Also NBC's commentators are lousy at best, and frequently offensive.
I remember the complaints of a lot of American friends of the London 2012 coverage, especially the opening ceremony.
Tribute to victims of the London 7/7 bombings that took place the day after London won the Olympics? We'll skip that for an interview with Michael Phelps!

I have trouble actually watching the Olympics because of the way they are done. Some of the events are interesting, but it's just so commercialized (because they have to make back the money they invested in the bidding process) and you're seeing everything through the lens of "what will make us the most profit".

I think you mean was. I am pretty sure it recently got Pluto'd.
