Mine tends to wear out really quickly too, though my nails rarely break..
Probably 'cos I drink loads of milk, like a pint a day at least xD
And as for my foot, got ANOTHER appointment next week so hopefully I'll make some progress.

Kupsy - It might be a stress facture. Really hard to see on an xray, but it'll hurt for a long time, however there's nothing they can do about it except tell you not to walk on it.
Planar whatever just sounds like a pulled muscle. XD

Well, it's meant to be this weird muscle that... Oh I'm not a doctor, I don't know. e-e;
Would be annoying if it was a stress fracture though, 'cos I don't walk much as it is, and I doubt I'd get such a thing from swimming...
Bored of my foot. I shall hop everywhere.

Stress fractures are usually from a combination of being heavy and standing on your feet all day.

Email draft 1:

My mother got a call today about someone complaining that I was supposedly "picking my nose" in the class, when I was trying to cover my nose because I had hayfever. I can't exactly help having hayfever, especially when they all wanted the doors wide-open.
They say that this is why none of them wanted to sit near me, but none of them sat near me in the first place. I was sat near a woman the first week, and the next week she moved across to the other side of the room. Another woman arrived (I don't remember their names, not that it matters now) that week, and then the next, she moved as well.

I know I am not the easiest person to start a conversation with, as I have aspergers syndrome, but I feel like they stopped trying, so they could be with people their own age, not a "kid".
I did enjoy learning about poetry while I was there, and I do like you as a teacher, but I just don't wish to be in an environment I feel uncomfortable in.

Email draft 2:

I will not be attending the course any longer.

My mother got a call today about someone complaining that I was supposedly "picking my nose" in the class, when I was trying to cover my nose because I had hayfever. If I was picking my nose, I'd have sooner flicked it in your students snotty faces.
They say that this is why none of them wanted to sit near me, but none of them sat near me in the first place. I was sat near a woman the first week, and the next week she moved across to the other side of the room, which is just as well because her love poems were equal to diahhrea. Another woman arrived (I don't remember their names, not that I give a shit) that week, and then the next, she moved as well, to sit next to that curly-haired arrogant c*** who I suspect was the one who made the complaint, as she never liked me in the first place.

I know I am not the easiest person to start a conversation with, as I have aspergers syndrome, but frankly I'd rather be a retard than be an arrogant prick like they are.
I did enjoy learning about poetry while I was there, and I do like you as a teacher, but I just don't wish to be in a room that stinks so much of false pretension I'm surprised the smoke alarms didn't go off.


So, which should I go with?
Ahhhh, so angry today. Those people there NEVER liked me, and they were just looking for an excuse as to why, when it's really just because I'm younger than them and they assume I must be some street urchin.
Seems I can never fit in... People my own age tend to want to go to clubs and pubs when I don't even drink (not to mention I can't listen to the music they do).
And the people older than me just want to talk amongst themselves. It's like we've gone back to being cavemen, and everyone splits off into their own tribes.

"OTHER TRIBES MUST BE REJECTED!! UGG UGG!!" *beats stone with a club*

Put the first line of the second draft in the first draft, and then go with the first draft.

The second one was obviously more angry, but displaying it like that to a teacher is a little unacceptable. You should keep those rants for friends and family, and try to keep everything professional so your teacher respects your decision and opinions more. Otherwise she will probably feel like she has to defend the people in her class, and won't be as accepting of your withdrawal.

Also, I say put the first line of the second draft in the first because it isn't clear whether you are quitting the class, or just complaining to the teacher.

Hope that helped a bit o 3o;

Also, don't worry about it. I absolutely hate my generation, I can't listen to their god-awful "music" (I'm seriously starting to doubt that it IS music, and not a bunch of teenagers whining into a microphone), and I have always been the outcast. I went to college early because of it, and I love it there because most of them are actually mature, motivated people.

I don't know how to help you with friends... the only reason I have found friends older than me is because my sister always let me hang out with her and her friends, and they all liked me. I'm sure if it wasn't for her, no one in the age group I want to hang out with, would want to hang out with me.

I hope things get better soon D:

The first line of the second was actually meant to be in both, copy/paste fail on my part I think.
And tbh I only really wrote the second one in rage. A lot of things are getting to me lately and I never seem to get a chance to vent it, so I vented it.. to my keyboard.

And I normally get on with people older than me, for the same reasons as you.. But these people just seem nasty, want to get rid of people just so they can go on about their ridiculous love poems.

Ok, rant again really because I do need to say it: Their poems SUCK. Like seriously, whenever they get asked to pick a subject they pick "romantic beaches", "a golden field", etc... And they were so corny, like.. Imagine the worst, most cheesy card you've ever gotten. Ten times worse.
I know they can't hear this lol, but honestly it makes me feel a bit better after the way they've been, need a rage outlet... Considering learning martial arts but I have yet to decide which.

Ahaha oh man, I know what you mean. I hate people who think poetry is all about putting together pretty sounding words. My friend had a poetry class, and they had to revise each other's poems, and I read some of the ones she was revising... they didn't even make sense. The girl was just shoving a bunch of things together because it sounded good, not because it had anything to do with the image she was trying to convey.

My friend and I would spend hours making fun of them xD we're awful people

You can always vent to me! Just send me a PM or something. I hate most humans, so I love listening to the humans that I do like complain about the rest of the idiots in the world. Because I totally relate! Happy

Kupsy has written a poem!! \o\

Never did fit in,
With all this poetry,
When I try to begin,
You all just turn bitchy.

You just want an excuse,
To stay with your kind,
So frankly what's the use,
Of preaching to the blind.

Yes, you poets are all the same,
With your pointless metaphors,
Stop talking crap, you have no acclaim,
Your written words are eyesores.

Stop talking, please,
It pains me to listen,
Stop being such pansies,
It pains me to see it written.

That's enough poetry now,
Why would I want to write it,
You all who think you're highbrow,
When really it's all just s***.

... By all means say it's awful xD But it's really put me in a good mood now.
Well, that and noodles :3
And I do end up hating most people, but I don't want to.. So I still try lol. Most of the time I dunno why I bother any more /o\
Silly people listening to poo music.

I'm in no position to judge your poem, but I giggled when you called them pansies.

And at poo music. Neutral I'm easily entertained. ><

Aw, I hope things get better for you soon, Kupsy. .3. And it's true, most people do suck, but I'm sure there are a few bearable ones out there...somewhere. >_> If you ever find any, do let me know. Also, just have to say: not all poets are pretentious, talentless, douchebags. You know, just sayin'....>.>; Sweat

*Jumps up and down, waving arms* Um, not to toot my own horn, but I do feel that a defense of poets is necessary, given all the bashing that's going on.

Though Kupsy, I totally, completely sympathize with you and I hope that everything works out and you find a place where you're happy. And yes, a lot of young and amateur poets are total douches. Just remember, not all of us are...

Hey hey hey! No one was bashing poets! I'm a poet myself, I even won a contest. In fifth grade. I was only talking about making fun of the bad poets. Lips are Zipped
