8:50 pm	Appreciate your friends! A thought struck me this morning whilst in bed - and it made me start to worry a little. I thought to myself about all the friends I have, and then thought that unfortunately I probably don't spend as much time talking to some of them as I should. I was thinking about the probabilities of dying suddenly. And so, I did some research. For the sake of me being a lazy bastard and wanting the calculations to be easy, let's say you have 100 friends. In fact, it probably won't make them easier, but whatever. We can model the probability of a certain amount of people dying by a binomial distribution. Let's look at the chance that one or more of your friends will kill themselves through suicide first of all. Through some basic statistical work we can conclude the chance is roughly 57%. The chance that one or more will be killed by being assaulted is roughly 38%. The chance that one or more will be killed in a transport accident is roughly 72.5%. The chance that one or more will be killed by an external source is a little over 99%. Depressing, no? Well, see that person on your list you never talk to, or maybe don't appreciate much? Talk to them! Make someone feel good today and feel good about yourself too for doing so. I'll leave this post public for people to mull over. Best regards, have a nice evening, ~~Simba (Comment on this)

4:11 pm	Hey there... Exams are over ^_^ ! I've received all my results, and I'm happy with them mostly ^_^ ... however I was disappointed with my English result >_< , I don't really think I've been marked fairly... sure, I've never done a paper on media studies before, but I was hoping for around 95% :( ... Anyway, my average mark on my end of year tests was 83%, which is comfortably an A* ^_^ ... so I'm happy with that. Now I have tons of coursework to do... Oh, one other thing hehe, I started the maths A-level course today ^_^ !!! I got a C1 textbook to study from, so I'm having fun with that hehe, already done half of the first chapter and I only got it at lunchtime :P ! Take care ^_^ *Hugglez + Nuzzlez + Snugglez!!!* ~~Simba (2 Comments |Comment on this)

5:31 pm	Update I took my biology and maths 1 end of year exams today :\ ... I could do pretty much all of the biology exam, I'm hoping for over 80% ^_^ ... in maths one of the questions wasn't clear, and so I wasn't sure what to put for the answer *growls*... I might have lost a mark there... stupid question... Tomorrow I have geography, IT and chemistry exams... in geography I could be in big trouble if I don't revise, which I probably won't... then again, I didn't revise for biology or maths, and I found those relatively easy... IT shouldn't be too hard, and chemistry... well, there is a lot of maths in the chemistry we've been doing, so I'm hoping to get a decent mark... Well, I'm going to eat now, take care... *Hugglez tightly* ~~Simba - The Snuggly Fluffball (Comment on this)

10:40 pm	Allo... Hey there everyone... So, what's happening in my life lately? Well, the same crap as usual really, bullies at school, people teasing me with their 'love', and of course, many people relying on me for help as always (not that I find this crap ^_^ )... I probably sound like a right old bugger going on about my love life... I mean, I'm fifteen years old, at least two people wanna be my mate, but I'm not satisfied am I? I'm too defiant to be able to convince myself to become mates with one of them :( ... But, the truth is, I still love my second mate... I know there's no chance of ever getting together with my first mate again, so I've kinda given up there :( ... in fact, last thing I heard, my first mate had a girlfriend :O !!! So meh, good luck, you had your chance with me, can't say I wasn't willing to give you everything I have ^_^ ... But, my second mate... well, I really love this lion... and, again, I'm willing to give this lion everything in life... The lion in question however claimed to love me to stop me hurting myself and to stop me from killing myself *sighs*... So, we broke up... Well, I'm not sure where I'll go in the future... I admitted something that I keep private to a couple more people lately, I'd say the majority of people know about it now... still though, there are a couple of people that I think would perhaps judge me for it, and so it's perhaps best not telling them just yet... Onto happier news, on Runescape, they made me a Player Moderator ^_^ ... This basically means that I get a greater influence when it comes to sorting out scammers and other nasty rulebreakers >_< ... I lost a friend today too... Them: "Are you a mod?" Me: Yeah =] ... I messaged them six or seven times after that, but they didn't reply any of the times, so I'm pretty sure they're ignoring me :( ... ah well, not to worry... I took my maths GCSE papers last week and the week before. I'm really happy with my performance in both, I think I got 100%!!! I've already done a lot of the AS-level and A2-level work, so next year shouldn't be too difficult either ^_^ ... Tomorrow I have my French GCSE, and, well, I'm kinda nervous :O !!! I really want to get an A in it, but well... I'm not sure that I will :( ... I sure hope that I get an A or better though ^_^ !!! Coming back to where I started, I told my old mate about all my problems, and well... I think that's part of the reason of why they stopped loving me (if they ever did of course)... I told them that it might stop me getting some jobs... but... *slaps himself* stupid Simba... my grades are good enough to get most jobs I want anyway... To be a vet, you supposedly need to be more intelligent than you need to be to be a human doctor... I feel kinda unloved lately with my mate and all, I just want to be loved truly by someone, and to love them back with all my heart :( ... oh, and hopefully that person will be in England too, so we're not too far apart... there's a girl in Scotland who loves me, but she's in her twenties, and well :\ ... I guess... deep deep down inside... I still love my little fluffball *wipes a tear away sadly offline*. (3 Comments |Comment on this)

9:22 pm	Party ^_^ !!! Hiya there everyone ^_^ !!! It was my birthday party today, and it was tons of fun :D !!! I really enjoyed myself, and there was lots of food (I like food ^_^ !!!) Also, Iestyn from Lea was there :O :D !!! It was really fun with him, we talked and had some food from the barbecue, then we went upstairs on the computer :D , it was really fun, Iestyn put on some of his music ^_^ !!! It was very loud and the people had voices not like the people in songs I'm used to :P ... I'll stick to my music thanks, hehe ^_^ !!! Iestyn also got me a really cuddly and cute plushie, after Iestyn went home I snuggled him a bit ^_^ , we're going to snuggle more in bed tonight ^_^ ... (me and the plushie, not me and Iestyn :P ...) Also he gave me a birthday card that I'm not allowed to open until tomorrow :E ... King Simba also made me a special birthday card ^_^ , it has a piece of her art on it, it's really good, and looks positively sexy :D !!! Me and Iestyn listened to some TLK music and some other music too, which was fun ^_^ ... I was disappointed when he had to go, but my mother told me something that really made me happy, and well... this Summer, with my dad's permission, I might be allowed to do something really special :D !!! Not going to say what though, in case my dad doesn't let me :E ... So, all in all, I've had a really good day, my first in who knows how long ^_^ ... And it's my actual birthday tomorrow, so I should be happyish tomorrow too ^_^ !!! Thanks for reading ^_^ ... ~~Simba (STL) (6 Comments |Comment on this)

9:12 pm	Future... What will happen to us in the future? It's scary to think that I'm probably never going to meet most of my Internet friends... and I will most probably lose contact with a great deal of them as they move on in life... and perhaps I will move on too... Today I said my final goodbye to a dear friend of mine called Runerose... that made me think... I will probably never speak to or hear from Runerose again... it could be the same with everyone else I know one day... We gotta make the most of what we have now... I have my French oral examination for my GCSE on the 10th May... I'm so screwed... I really need to do well; I need good GCSE grades to allow me to get a good job later on... In my English 'original writing' coursework, I scored 25/27, which isn't too bad... that was on my first draft. So I have a chance to improve it ^_^ ... I'm hoping for 26/27 or better. I've been missing someone an awful lot who hasn't been online lately... well they probably have, just I haven't seen them online :( ... Last night I sang two songs for a dear friend of mine, but he turned round and told me that he "only likes songs sung by the original artist", so I was kinda upset about that... not to mention depressed about school and all the normal things... I'm on new medication now too. My psychologist hasn't given me a new appointment yet, so we're going to have to get in touch with him... Well, not really much to say other than that. Thanks for reading ^_^ ... ~~Simba(TheLion) (3 Comments |Comment on this)

5:22 pm	Update "Ever had the feeling that you are worth nothing at all, nothing at all...?" Well, it's a while since I updated... a lot has happened in my life in the last... almost three months :O !!! I should keep this thing updated... I'll only end up forgetting though, so it would be silly of me to promise to update every day or something like that... Well, let's see... tonight's homework... hmm... well, I have no homework... at least I don't think I do anyway... Today I got the results for my maths test back, the test I did yesterday in class. I was really happy when I got my paper back, I got 70/70 ^_^ !!! The test was very easy though, so I suppose it's not really that good an achievement. Our teacher was really miffed off with the majority of the class though, because the test was so poorly done overall :E ... Our teacher went through it and did the entire test in 21 minutes... It took me around 25 minutes, but then I had to go through and check everything :E ... I hate checking my work, so boring... luckily I had it all correct, so I just sat there like the pudding that I am for the last half-hour or so :P ... Today we played tennis at school, it was quite amusing because we were playing a game in which the idea was to hit the ball up as high as you can to the other person, and the people playing had to work together to stop the ball bouncing twice, as well as hitting it as high as possible... rather difficult to explain, but still funny :P ... I did two more practice papers for maths, I'm hoping for an average of 80% or more, that's what I need for an A* :) ... They're GCSE level, so they're not as easy as the maths tests we get in class :P !!! Still though, I can cope... I found out next year I'll most probably be studying mechanics, and that should set me off in a good way towards my A-level in maths. Knowing me though, I'll mess up and get a crappy mark... I suck at mechanics anyway :E ... Give me pure maths any day :P !!! Our teacher told us that we should take the duration of a test, and spend between double and triple that amount of time revising :E ... he was really annoyed because a lot of people got poor marks... Someone got less than 9%, so our teacher was well... not impressed :P ... Well, I should change the topic before I bore you all to death, I have a suspicion that the majority of people who ever read this post will have become bored and stopped reading by now anyway. I'm getting better at RPing, I RP quite a lot of MSN now with various other lions, tigers, wolfies, anything :P ... I know a very special little wolfie, but that special little wolfie has a mate :( ... One of my best friends now just primarily RPs tigers, sure, they're fun, but there's no mane to play about in hehe, although their fur is very soft and snuggly ^_^ ... I've been in a few voicechats lately, last night I heard someone speak for (I think) the first time, he has such an awesome voice ^_^ ... even higher than mine ^_^ !!! I'm learning a couple of new songs... I learnt one called Wind's Nocturne, I was going to sing it for my special little lion friend, but he has no microphone, and his computer is slow, so I'm not sure that audio conversations would be the best thing for him. I must admit, I do feel a little unwanted at the moment... most people are taking the attitude of "Will you RP with me? Please, please, please, please, please!!!" so that's a little annoying... Don't be shy, express your love ^_^ ... I must admit I'm kinda shy, I wouldn't mind being mates with this cute little lion, but well... the cute little lion in question has a crush on someone offline, so I'm a little embarrassed to ask... but, well... I think it might make the cute little lion a bit uneasy too, and the cute little lion might be afraid to say no in case my feelings are hurt. So, I'm wary of asking... Anyway, on a brighter note, I've been watching a program lately called 'Animal Park: Wild in Africa'... It's really good :) !!! On Runescape, I'm 1347 skill total now, 52 slayer ^_^, I've been working on that... I would like 1350 skill total soon, although I've been spending a lot of time making money :E ... Ah well, I won't keep you any longer, enjoy the rest of your day ^_^ !!! *Hugglez + Nuzzlez + Snugglez!!!* ~~Simba (or SimbaTheLion... but, well... I prefer Simba :P !!!)

4:20 pm	E-mail... I sent an e-mail to someone who dislikes me yesterday, I'm waiting for a reply at the moment. I'm kinda nervous, it was an apology, and I'm sure if you need to know what it was about, you will already know what it's about, so please don't ask ^_^... I put my heart into writing the e-mail, and really... well, I'm not sure what I really did... let's just hope that my efforts aren't in vain. I asked for something really important to me... I asked the person to forgive me for the bad things I've done in the past. Lots of people have told me to give up, but I'm not like that, I'm not giving up. I kinda look up to the person... not for a reason such as that he's cool, or smart... no, something more than that. He's a very respectable person in my eyes... I see him as maybe a big brother to me, someone usually setting a good example for me to follow. I've been trying so hard these last six months to do my best for everyone, not just at Lea, but at other places too. I feel that in these last six months I've matured a lot, at least on the Internet. I feel I owe a lot to the person. He's changed me, and by that I mean changed me for the better. He gave me the ability to make friends. He showed me the right way to go, the right path to follow. In the long run, I can say that he has probably benefited me more than quite a lot of other people. He is one of the people I credit with helping me to be a half-decent person. I feel that the person has done my work, making me a better person. My psychologist says that I shouldn't overlook that I have actually been the one helping myself... I don't believe that... if I was the one helping myself, then why would I need someone else's help? I truly do think that this person has been one of the people helping me. Thank you, the reader, simply for reading this entry, and thank you even more if you decide to comment. Thanks also go out to all the people who have supported me in the past six months, you guys are my heroes/heroines. Thank you, the person I sent the e-mail to... I hope that you can find it in your heart to forgive me. ~~SimbaTheLion (3 Comments |Comment on this)

6:38 pm	Back from teaching now, just ate and I could do with a good long relax later (like I'll ever get one) *sigh*. Some stupid pricky little girl keeps bothering me on Neopets, and they have such strict regulations I can't bite her head off through neomail... They don't even let you say Johnny Depp forgoodness sake let alone swear. I'm also excited and hope to help Brad with his new RPG, waiting for a reply on that note, fingers crossed :D! Today when I was teaching one of my students fell over outside and had to be taken to hospital, she cut her arm pretty badly... I got some smelly stuff from this relaxation clinic I go to, it's called Nag Champa, it smells great lol, they sold me a box for £1, I think it's worth it. It's like incense, u burn it and it gives the great smell out as it burns :D. Ah well, that's about it for now ^^...
