I'm doing this MOSTLY because it will make Patches laugh...but moreover because it's true...everyone....I'm better :-)
Now, please don't take this post as saying "last night I cured all of my mental problems". On the contrary. I've spent the past couple months bouncing thoughts off one of my closest friends (thanks, btw), and reevaluating who I am, what I want, and why I care what other people think. All in all, after taking on everything in my head, and decided who I was...the rest was academic.
All I had to do was be happy...and I am :-) Everything I do makes me happy now, instead of depressed, and that, my friends, is what life is all about. I am thrilled to say that I am myself again, and that I am no longer confused about life and it's many twists and turns. Thank you everyone who ever helped and continues to be my good friend. I couldn't have done it without you...
Hi, my name is Chris. nice to meet you :-D

End of the Term???
Holy CRAP where did the term go?? It's been a hell of a ride....let's recap starting at the last post!
1. I've made some significant changes to how I view life and myself. They're private and I probably won't make them public for a while (some of you know) but for those of you I don't wish to talk to about it, just be assured it's a good thing :-)
2. I was sick for quite litereally 2 week of the term. Falling behind is bad enough, but try falling behind in 4 classes and an MQP! It's not pretty. I'm still on track for finishing this up well, so we'll see what's up...
3. I was clipped by a car on Highland Street (only a few of you knew that :-P) I'm perfectly fine, but it was like, an hour of stupid shit and talking to police, etc. No fun! It made me open work late :-(
4. Mike and I were greeted with the absolutely AMAZING committee we call publicity. Not only did we gain the most members of other committees, our members are byfar some of the most enthusiastic people I've seen in SocComm! I'm excited for the organization's future :-)
5. There is no five, keep reading...
6. I've made new friends, some of them already closer than I usually get so quickly. I thing I'm opening up! SURPRISE! haha
I guess that's good for now. Recaps are good! I'll keep the blog up more now though :-)
Peace!
Chris

A new life!
So, my mom got married this weekend, and it was awesome (open bar!). But the funniest part was the Justice of the Peace. So, we had rehearsed Friday night in order to get a couple kinks out, nothing big. So the next day, Betty and Paul (Betty was the Justice of the Peace, Paul was her husband) were intense! "This is wrong, that's not right, switch sides, say this, do that." We laughed through part of the ceremony cause at some points it was ridiculous! Oooo memories!
Also, word of advise...don't send emails from your iPhone while driving. SO dangerous!! ;-)
Peace out yo!
Chris
PS - If you left a comment on the blog and deleted it (someone did...) could you email it to me? I'm curious now :-P

Up, Down, Touch the Ground...
Perspective...I've never had it. I, as many other people, always see things the way they see them, and have no outside insight. For a long time, I used to wonder if I was even MEANT to be ok...I mean, come on when you work at something for so long, it's hard to think that you're supposed to be ok "soon" ever single day.
Recently I took a plunge and tried a new method, and while working it has also opened my eyes to some of the things that I do, say and otherwise to alienate those I care about. It has also opened my eyes to the reactions of friends, however close or far, which helps me to hone the problems into good relationships.
So I guess what I'm saying is that recently I've had great days and shitty days, and it's time to come to Earth here (Abydos would work too...nerds will get it). At the same time, I also need to come clean with all of my friends to really see where I stand. I only have 4 or 5 friends I really trust without question, and it needs to change...wish me luck.
"A friend is one to whom one may pour out all the contents of one's heart, chaff and grain together, knowing that the gentlest of hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away."

Here it comes!
Ladies and gentlemen, the moment(s) you've all been waiting for. It's my last year in college!! Now now, don't get worried. I know it's hard to believe, but it's true! And although I won't be all that financially sound for a while, I'll totally be done :-)
Everything I've done for myself these past years has been for this. I feel very good about this, and I definitely feel like this year is going to be ok (Africa still might be rough, but we'll see...)

Measures taken...
So I've taken some measures to insure that I start feeling better about life. Honestly...I couldn't really go on the way I do anymore. It's a vicious cycle to leads to health issues, relationship issues, and most importantly to me of all, friendship issues. Now in taking these measures, I have actually been able to see a few things very clearly.
This weekend was a little rough, but not for the reasons you're all used to knowing about. It was very interesting...In a normal Chris world, the events that transpired from Saturday evening through Sunday evening would have been absolutely devastating. Like, we're talking breakdown sized. Granted I was very disappointed, that was it. It's actually the first time I've been able to turn back on something that has happened and look at it clearly, making the comparison to how I should feel and how I do feel, then choosing the right path.
This road that I'm taking is one I'm normally against, but may prove to be successful. In the end, that's really all I can ask for. Additionally, getting better also means that when I do feel sad or depressed, it will be easier to work on, because I'll know it's actually supposed to be happening...whereas normally not only would I have to deal with it, but I'd also have to determine if it was a real reason to be depressed or just a brain chemistry fuck up.
Isn't that fun, children?? Well, that's all for now everyone. Catch you on the flip side! (hopefully cured ;-)

I don't know what I did...
But I managed to be ecstatic, depressed, have a break down, cry and feel better all in a span of 5 hours. All it's done is lead me to the very obvious realization that doing this alone is no longer an option. Luckily, I've also had the time to think very hard about my life in that time. I even was essentially told by someone I respect that I don't make sense...flat out.
Well that does it. No more of this. This has become priority one. Why should I have to deal with this? Why should my friends? It's not fair...so I'm going to do something about it...
Watch me...
DAY 1 of Bettering Myself:
Well, lets start with today simply to have a control to figure out where I'm going wrong. Today I made a few crucial mistakes, listed with the corresponding disorder:
1. Assuming my friends didn't like me (P.P.D.)
2. Using my away message as a place to voice an opinion...twice (S.A.D., P.P.D.)
3. I let it turn into a breakdown (C.D.)
I'm going to start in those areas. Keep in touch to watch the progress...

Still better, but still meh...
So I've definitely identified my weak points and I'll be working on them soon. I need to try way harder to be proactive in my friendships. :/
Sunday, August 5, 2007
:-D
So I definitely still have some issues to work out, and I will definitely asking a few close friends to help me out...but today was one of the best days I've had mentally, emotionally, physically..EVERYTHING....in a very very very long time :)

Detachment...
For those of you that have known me for more than 5 seconds, you may know I have a bit of a detachment problem. It's a mental issue that I have to deal with...and though slowly going away, is not something to be dealt with lightly.
There are some big issues that can occur. Loneliness leading to depression, feelings of being ignored or left out, and the worst, the inability to cope with leaving. This is where I have a problem. Yes, I still get all the other stuff too...but let's talk about leaving.
In D Term, I'm going to be going to Africa. This is an AMAZING opportunity. But I'm petrified because I'll be removed from the people that are without a doubt, my crutches in life. I can't just deal with it either...this is a real fear that isn't easily dealt with. I have 26 weeks to kill this feeling, and I'm going to need all the help I can get...
Then there's getting a job. What if my job sends me away? Can I handle that? I'm pretty sure that's a big ass no. I guess it's possible to live with friends after, or just have them on standby for emergencies, but that's no way to live. And when will I get over it? Sometimes it takes days, sometimes weeks. Will I be miserable in Africa for 3 days or 3 weeks (the latter being FAR worse)?
Barring ALL of that...I'm actually feeling rather good recently. Today was a little rough, but I think the stress took over, that was the only problem there. I think I need to sit with people and talk to them soon, before the school year starts, about how to help me. If I can just get the right people to do the right things, I'll be golden when I go away. Hell, maybe I'll even be able to live with my friends in coming years. Depends on the position I get I guess.
I'm rambling, but sorry it helps ;P Anyway...that's all for now...I hope :-\

MUCH better...
So I guess all it takes is time. This extra day to reflect and think has helped immensely (that and leaving a novel in a friends google talk. thanks, ps...) NOW I think I feel better. There are a couple things here and there that are still getting to me, but definitely feeling back to normal.
Luckily, I'm pretty sure I have some of the most understanding friends to ever exist...so that definitely helps.
Just random note, if you're a friend of mine and want to know how to help...all you really have to do is remember me. I benefit greatly from simple talking ad hanging out, or just being involved. It's the loneliness that kills me...that and lying, but I don't really run into that too often.
Anyway, that's all I've got for now. Nice happy feel good posts coming soon!
Peace,
Chris

"Today will probably be better than yesterday."
So that's the fortune cookie I got with my food today. I suppose that should be the first indication that I'm doing better. Haha. Fortune cookies have to be right, right? :)
Anyway, today was the first day in a while that I was able to come home and relax. Without Frontiers, life is much more easy going! I'm still easing into the friends thing but I'm wicked close :)
Jin is leaving the bookstore on Friday, so it's guna get hectic there. It'll be handlable, just very annoying I think. But I GUESS that if she found a better job, that's fine ;)
That's all for now. More later!
Peace,

Upswing?
So, I think I may be on an upswing, after a holy hell of a night last night followed by the worst weekend on record. I'm pretty sure that that was the single worst crash I've ever experienced. I was physically ill at times because of it, and I really went all out on the trying to get people to help.
It was crazy...
I don't know why I think I'm on an upswing...I still feel absolutely horrible...but less paranoid...I guess that's good!
We'll see what the week brings...
Peace,
Chris

What friendship means to me...
I'm at a very odd point in my life...
Very recently was a one year anniversary of being comfortable with my friends and friendship in general. It only took 4 years, but hey I try :P Something very important I finally came to realize is that your REAL friends...you just know are your real friends. I have 3 close friends I can name...just 3. That's all I need. (Those who are offended, please note that I have a vast array of good friends, and you're probably in it if you're reading this :P). These friends are people I've probably alienated in the past...but kept coming back to me because they cared.
Here's the dilemma...coming away from a depressive state has it's drawbacks. Though I no longer get depressed, I can "crash". A crash is a sudden and fast (about a week or so, sometimes only one night) change in mood from happy to depressed. It's unhealthy and dangerous. A crash can be triggered easily by a thought of a depressing thing, or moment, or someone saying something that my mind isn't trained to interpret as innocuous (including "we're not friends anymore"), etc., etc. Unforutnately, a recent string of events have lead me to crash
for the past week. I've already accused a few people of not being my friend, and have already tried to reaffirm my friendship with multiple people.
This is bad...
So, how do we fix this? Well, first off I need to teach myself a lesson. As much as it hurts me to sit back and do nothing, it's just what I have to do. There are some of you that already know who triggers my crashes and possibly who triggered this one. For those that don't it doesn't matter, as my life will be free of this person in about a month.
I think it is very important to note that it will be an actual turning point in my life, and you will see a marked change in my personality on the fabled day. Bring beer...
Anyway, I guess that's all for now.

Chris

United Airlines v. Lufthansa, jaaaa....
So, let's go over a brief history of my international flying experiences and see if we can find a trend. Now please, don't get me wrong, I've NEVER had a problem with the FLIGHT...but let's take a look at the payment problems really quick...
1. Continental Airlines: We tried to use Continental to buy tickets to Frankfurt, Germany this past March. Unfortunately, their inability to comprehend the fact that they had put a hold on my card made them unable to charge me for the tickets. I swore at them and demanded a refund.
2. Icelandair: This is the airline we eventually actually bought the tickets from. Good idea, since it was a great trip. However, the taxes and fees for the trip were attached AFTER the trip, and I was overdrawn by $100.
3. Lufthansa: This airline was magnificent. One of the best plane trips I've ever taken. Too bad they made me pay through United Airlines.
4. United Airlines: Damen und Herren, this has to be the worst coincidence ever...my rent check was cashed on the SAME DAY that United decided to double charge me. I am currently overdrawn by $800. $800!!!!
There is only one good thing about this...an amusing set of phone calls that followed:
10:03 a.m., Call from United Airlines, Houston, TX...
Good morning, Mr. St. Pierre? Hi this is Cheryl calling from United Airlines to inform you that we are attempting to charge your card for your airline tickets to Paris, France and it seems to me it's being declined. If you could give me a call back that'd be greeeeat!
10:15 a.m., Call from United Airlines, Houston, TX...
Good morning again, Mr. St. Pierre. I would just like to let you know that it seems we may have double charged you for this trip. If you could please give us a call back so we can discuss this that'd be great!!
10:37 a.m., Call from Lufthansa, Frankfurt, DE...
Guten tag, this is Morgan from Lufthansa Air calling to let you know that we have discussed the matter with United Airlines and have taken care of the trip costs for you. You should see a reversal as soon as it makes it through our system. Thank you for flying Lufthansa!!
....I love international airlines :P

First post!
So why a blog? Why not livejournal? I've always felt that blogs belong to the person...and aren't as much a journal as a sounding board. I always thought it was odd to have a "Live" Journal...especially when I hear about people who get angry because they being commented on, when they have the posts open and commentable...so this works better for me.
I suppose I'll start just by throwing a note about my time at WPI, what I've learned and such...
Yes...I've been here for 5 years (going on 6)
Yes...I have to overload 5 classes per term, then go to Africa in D term
Yes...It's going to be very hard
No...I'm not quitting my job or SocComm, or other clubs to make the time
Yes...I understand some of you may feel that's a bad idea
No...I don't really care
and No...I do not regret my decision...
My first 4 years at WPI were nothing like ever before. People are right, college is a life changing experience, and on top of that, college only happens once and they are some of your best years. I did not stay at WPI for an extra 2 years because I couldn't let go. I also didn't stay because I felt I had a grudge against anyone or anything at the school I had to resolve.
The reason I stayed at WPI is because the first 4 years there, I was nobody. I was shy, annoyed, frustrated, going with the flow and wicked easy to manipulate. I didn't think my friends were friends, and sometimes they turned out not to be. In the past year (and hopefully this coming year), the changes I've made have panned out and will pan out to actually be life changing, and possibly send me in the direction I wish to go. I've made a difference in the places I've always wanted to...my career choices are now in a place I'd like...my friends are my friends, my good friends are my good friends, my few close friends I no longer think will leave me, and those who have pretended to be my friends are gone. The people, things, places, experiences, and everything else that I will enjoy are now achieved or in progress...and THAT is what makes this entire WPI expereince finally worth while.
Chris
PS - I'll be starting a second blog soon that outlines my life at WPI and how I've changed. Also, if you wish to view the abridged version, go to http://users.wpi.edu/~stpierre/mylife.htm

I've made a difference in the places I've always wanted to...my career choices are now in a place I'd like...my friends are my friends, my good friends are my good friends, my few close friends I no longer think will leave me, and those who have pretended to be my friends are gone. The people, things, places, experiences, and everything else that I will enjoy are now achieved or in progress...and THAT is what makes this entire WPI expereince finally worth while.

PS - I'll be starting a second blog soon that outlines my life at WPI and how I've changed. Also, if you wish to view the abridged version, go to http://users.wpi.edu/~stpierre/mylife.htm
