I feel like I'm getting left behind by everyone I know. I don't know how i feel right now but it seems like it's all gravitating on my chest. i miss everyone and I feel like I'm missing the good things in life.

hey posham...why would you think like that? you must trust yourself that you are the best and you haven't getting left behind.that is just your own feeling.maybe you are a little worried or sad,right? abandon all that you're concerning and go out to think of youself...take care!

may i ask you a question?...if you're primary with your job, it's very common that you have this feeling yourself. though i'm just a student, but i'v heard that beginners always can't adapt to their earlier jobs...they may consider they're boring and less challenging...just now i'd scannd your space in Blogger..so fashionable and beautiful! good luck!

really, thanks.. sigh.. that's actually what i want to do for a living.. write.. i want a job that makes a difference, something that i can be proud of.. i know this is just my first job and it's just a stepping stone.. but i've spent more than a year in this job.. always the same thing.. talk and talk nonstop to americans tackling the same information everyday.. it's so boring.. and degrading in a way that they think that that's all you know.. i believe i can do better.. i don't want to get stuck in this rut.. but i can't seem to find the energy to just let go and quit.. sigh.. yeah, since you're just in high school.. i suggest that you begin thinking what you really want to do in life.. so that you can plan for it as well.. haha..

yeah, maybe.. it's just that sometimes people can't believe that i'm not yet continuing to law school or that my job's not that grand..dunnow.. i think in a way, they expected something from me.. i know this is just temporary but why can't i just go? like right now, i'm sick of my job but i don't want to resign yet until i get accepted in another job that i really like.. it's not hard to find a job, but it's hard to get into one that i really love..

I understan how you feel. I remember a point in my life where that happened to me as well. Both my brother and my sister live in other states with thier families, and we only get to see each other once a year, twice if we are really lucky. It is hard, but thanks to the internet we email each other all the time. Sometimes we have better conversations via email than we would ever have in person. I still feel very close to my brother and sister because we talk via email all the time. Hopefully you can do this as well. I still miss seeing them, but when we do get to see each other the time is quality.
I know that it is difficult now, but you will see in time you will have more people in your life. Also you have the opportunity to have your parents all to yourself, take advantage of this.
I wish you all the best.

maybe, i dunno.. actually, they all live very close.. just the same village, some just 10minutes away.. the farthest is my brother about 90mins away but he sleeps here all the time because it's closer to work.. i don't know.. maybe i'm the one who's drifting away - emotionally.. maybe it's time i go on with my own life as well..

I feel that you are thinking too much on an issue. You should have belief within yourself. You must have got some positive traits, thinkg about them, you will find a change. Also remember, when you are down and out, keep on counting your blessings, you would feel better.

I think it's just part of growing up. These feelings of loss and missing things..they're all part of moving one stage up in life ^^.
If you feel like you're drifting apart from people you still want to be connected to..make an effort to reach out. And sometimes, losing connection with some people is inevitable and it's totally fine.

i don't know, i feel like the world is spinning so fast that i can't catch up.. it's not just poeple.. it's my own life as well.. i know they said to take things slowly, that we're still young, but i fear that i may ran out of time.. that i need to act now.. i don't want to grow old and look back and see that nothing happened in my life..

I know exactly how you feel, I am in the same situation.
But try not to worry too much, you will get through it, as will I. I wish you luck!

Why do you think they are are leaving you behind? are these your friends and you feel they have all advanced in their work?
I see your brothers and sisters are leaving... but it is for good. do not feel sad about it. be happy that you are staying because you are the one who will be able to take care of your children. do better and your time will come for you to leave too.

i don't know about children, i don't think about those stuff yet.. i think you may understand.. i live in batangas and i just spent college in manila, when i got back, it seems like things are different - very different.. i know that it's not that far away because it's just a 90min drive and i graduated in 2006.. but still.. it feels like i'm catching up with things here, and losing grip with my friends from school...

I don't really know what the situation is...is it like something where you live far away from your family or is it somehting else...if that is the resons..then you can always move back home I mean I am sure that you have some family that would let you live with them until you can get back on your feet...I think that you should just sit down and think about what you can do to make you happy and then just do that don't owrry about whateveryone else is thinking or wants you to do....

actually, i'm living at home.. but everyone seems to be leaving.. i just spent about 4yrs away for college and when i'm now back at our home town, it seems like everyone has his or her own life.. i don't know.. sometimes, i feel like my life's going no where.. i should act right now but somehow it seems like i'm hindering myself on moving to bigger things. i don't know what's wrong with me.
