After reading all those posts, i'm beginning to feel lucky I don't have to use glasses or contacts.

It's not that big a deal... Part of the daily routine like brushing your teeth or taking a shower...

Eh, I don't even bother with that... The multipurpose solutions claim that there's an enzymatic action, so secondary enzyme cleaning isn't necessary.

Hopefully you don't use one of those multipurpose solutions with boric acid in them. Anyway, I'm stubborn and don't trust those multipurpose solutions. Since I work for an eye doctor, who has seen many people with bad reactions to those (hell, in the short time that I've been working there, I've seen my fair share of them too), I don't recommend them at all.

I hope someone can create a contact lens/glasses thread. I don't want to do it myself because I don't want to feel responsible for it in any way.

On topic: I hate taking a day or two away from this forum because I forget which threads that I wrote in and have to respond too.

I'm not sure... But I've been using the same solution for a couple of years now, so I think it's okay.

Done, everybody join in!!

Well, I didn't want people to be all like "ooh, works for an eye doctor" and bombard me with tons of questions if I started the thread.

Thanks for creating the thread, gmark!

I thought it meant "Bite the Wall". That was a putdown phrase we used when I was in Jr. High. (the mind of a 14 year old is wonderous indeed )

Aside for having a crappy day, I burned my arm. Joy.

Bite the wall?

You had to be there. When I was in the Navy, this guy would put people down by saying, "Suck a raw dog's ass."

Ah, the Navy. I used to work for the Navy (maintenance of weapons systems). All that time at sea can do things to sailor's minds

Here I am, posting on the boards when I should really write in my journal and do some homework for my Jp class. I started on the homework, but I haven't written a single word for the damn journal. I don't even know what the hell to write. It doesn't help that my sensei somewhat laughed at what I wrote the last time and didn't even ask if I was ok after I wrote about my traumatic experience. I wonder wtf was so damn funny.

Anyways, it bothers me that I love to procrastinate and wait till the last minute. I really need to make a schedule for myself because this procrastination is giving me stress the night before things are due.

It also bothers me that no one else is on the forum. Where are you, AD???

ETA: KIKU is pissing me off with all the sound skipping and blockiness to the point that I'm not watching the show that I wanted to watch. At least this gives me more time to concentrate on homework and stuff.

I think it helps if you are not writing to anyone but yourself (or try to pretend). And sometimes things can seem funny when it happen to someone else, but very different when I am on the receiving end. That can sound pretty cruel but I know I have... Not sure if that helped at all, hope you are feeling better anyway.

I ruptured my archilles and was stuck in a hospital bed for the past two days. But in hindsight, that was probably peanuts compared with being on crutches for the next 6 weeks. I guess lots of people had been on crutches during their school days, but this is the first time for me. -_-

Ouch! Get well soon

Douzo odaijini!

Thank you.

I got lucky in a way. It happened just before the Grand Final (Australian Rules Football), so I basically didn't have to wait for my surgery at all. That night, two guys came into my room and they waited (without food) for most of the day before their surgery. Heard there were quite a few operations queued up. The wait must have been pretty excruciating for them.

It was late Sunday night: people have to get up for work on Monday.

I do write stuff as it were a journal for just me, but even I get bored of writing the same old stuff. I need to get a more exciting life. And I think that my Jp teacher was just laughing because it's a Japanese thing, according to one of my friends who explained it, so it's all good.

Yeow, that sounds really painful. Hope you're feeling better now.

I know most of you guys were asleep, but I was hoping that AD was available. I guess he had to actually do some WORK at his workplace though.

It�Ls official, I, Belgian taxpayer, will be paying for the greediness of the financial world, more precise Fortis Bank. And that on top of having to pay for incompetent politcians who haven�Lt been doing their job for almost 2 years ...

On the plus side I have learned that a country can function wonderfully without a government -> politcians are overrated .
