No I don't have a problem with there being so many guys here, I'm used to it, most of the things I like doing are supposedly typically male acctivities, yet I still have a great time, even if I am sometimes banned from certain parts of those acctivitys due to my gender >< (wont let me play cricket because I'm a girl mutter mutter mutter). Here though you guys let me join in with just about everything, so it's BRILLIANT.
Oh and thankyou for pointing that out, therefore

That's OK Eledhwen. We're very understanding when it comes to things like that so please don't worry too much about having to post here. Your education is far more important But I look forward to seeing you post around a bit more ;D

Thanks for letting us know Eledhwen. I know what it's like to be too busy, just after I joined I vanished for 3 months. We are understanding of this sort of thing as we know this is only a game and real life is more important. Feel free when you are free and have more time to post around though and good luck in that uber important test

Well, we don't really know you too well, but maybe just you regular name would work for a screen name. Not your Real Life name, but your online name. Eledhwen.

I am so MAD!!!! When will people ever stop comparing me to everyone else? When will they ever understand that violence is not the answer? They(especially some) would get much better results if they would just sit down with me and just talk, find out who I really am! Why can't they just get the ideea that I can't be as good as others! Why dosen't anyone understand who I anm and what I feel? Why isn't anyone there who understands? De ce nu poate fi macar cineva, orcine, acolo sa ma inteleaga si sa-mi zica o vorba buna?

Eledhwen, what's wrong? You seem rather upset but I'm rather confused as to why :confused: Is it something we've done? We really want to get to know who you are, if you'll let us. I know that it is by reminding myself that I am one of the lucky ones that I manage to get through each day. Sometimes I wish I wasn't so lucky, because I do feel guilty. But what needs to be remembered, is that when you're given opportunity, you need to grasp it and use it. Wow, I actually sounded quite philosophical there

Are you ok Eledhwen, those last posts you made didn't seem very happy. I hope it's not something we've said or done.
Though I do have to say I agree with what you say about us not knowing how lucky we are, I only have to look at some of the people I know in RL to know that.
Well, whatever it was that made you say those things, I hope the situation improves in a good way, fi it can, and that we can continue to get to know you.

Did I say something to offend you Eledhwen?
You posted that immediatly after my post, and I did not think I was being offensive, but maybe it came off the way. Sometimes it does on message boards.
I did not mean to be rude if I was.

You didn't do or say anything. It's just that I've been having problems with my parents. This year is very stressful for me and they aren't helping at all! As a matter of fact, all they do is make things worse. It's the same story with my brother because he's going through the same thing as I am only he's trying to get into medical school.I'm really stressed-out by everything and every time I do something wrong, even if it isn't my fault, all I ever hear is "that's what you get for being stupid!" You figure them out! I'm the one who"s always stupid ! I'm always the one who messed up! It's never anyone elses fault, it's always mine!

That's why I say that you guys are lucky. You don't have to deal with the same things I have to face 3 times a day! You have no ideea what it's like!

Ouch ><
I can only say that I know slightly what that is like, and I know I haven't had it that bad, but it still felt bad enough to me, I now live away from home as much as possible to avoid it. I can remember my parents yelling and hitting and shouting and telling me over and over how badly I'm doing that I ought to be better, I can't do anything right. Because of those attitudes I'm having to get Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, to try and erase some of the feelings it has left me with.
I can't honestly say anything really apart from that somewhere there has to be hope. In my case that was being able to leave home at 18 and live on my own, which certainly made things a lot better.
I know I'm lucky, I've managed to get out of it, I left home, I still care about my parents and live with them over the summer (though I'm rarely at home, I tend to live at work and round my mates more), but I know full well I am very glad to get back to uni, so I can live here away from them. Finally my parents are realising what they have done to me and my brother, and are trying to set things right, but I think we all know, we are never going to be a very happy family, even if we do act it to the outside world.
All I can say is that I hope you can find a way out too or that things get better.

*wipes sweat from forehead*
Whew! Glad it wasn't me!
But, Eledhwen, I would not say that none of us have any idea what you are going through. Tin already came through with an example, and mine is about the same. I don't like to go into detail about it, because I go online to escape reality, but a lot of people really do know what you're going through and can sympathize.
My parents and family have toned it down a lot from the level it was at, but it peeks through every now and then.
Just a note, please don't assume or generalize. I am pretty sure you didn't mean to, but that is how it came across.
Anyway, I really do hope things get better for you! I know they will eventually! Just stick it out. ;D

Thanks a lot for all your support. I guess I was bit down in the dumps about everything, but anyway, it's nice to finally find someone who understands. Oo, and sorry for generalizing....I really didn't mean to.

That's OK Eledhwen. We were just concerned about you. I know that you've had a very long application period. But I just want to let you know that it's nothing to worry about. I'm sure we'll get a final decision soon ;D

I wish to say it's ok, as Eli said we do get concerned about our members and future members.
As to the application, Elindir is right, yours may have been long but we heading to a final desision.
