Thanks for the update, Alrik; hope things will improve for you now that daylight time increases...
Yeah, I put "mere" because while as inconvenient as an allergy crisis, food intoxication isn't bound to come back every time one eats of the food in question. ;D Benadryl is an antihistaminic that can be had over the counter pretty much anywhere here; good for not-too-grave allergic reactions and quite potent, thus why good to keep in our first-aid pharmacy.

... Just wanted to drop in and say that I'm fine. I'm mostly out of forums in general nowadays. Plus I've got a mild winter depression right now. Alrik Join the club Alrik. Only for me it's not mild anymore, it keeps hitting me. Plus being alone day in day out and my financial status isn't helping

Good to hear you are OK, Alrik. Hope the depression clears up soon.

Keep up the good work, Alrik.
Gal, can I join your club with my exam depression? No, because I won't let that happen to me. How 'bout a coffee, or a Duvel, to cleanse the bad moods when I'm free of college again?

Hah... oh well. Meanwhile, I've been cutting even more sugary foods. No more cakes(whimper), no more milo or anything that contains sugar. What this means is that I'm now excluding a ton of sauces and condiments. And it's going to make my family mad. I've also sworn off fried food, only eat steamed vegetables and so on. Also, why is it I tend to feel so empty and devoid of emotions/feelings instead at times? And why is it... that when this happens, I can have not a single bit of empathy until I become more "human" again, upon which I realize I've just hurt others and myself with my own actions? And then... I nearly came close to wanting to kill my parents. I mean... there is my mother being so whiny and everything and telling me how she's afraid and annoyed about me 'cos she thinks I tried to kill her. And my father keeps taunting me. Makes me really wanna explode but I gotta calm down. Sure, I'm afraid of blood and not too interested in murder but see, society doesn't approve of killing much.

Just so yall know, my location has changed..moved down the road about 6 miles into Chesapeake Virginia. Still the whole place is one big city and if you didn't see the signs you would never know whether you were in Norfolk, Virginia Beach, or Chesapeake.

We're all behind you, Ube. That should put the interviewer off-guard.

Well, they didn't chase me out of the building using sticks.
They were more like pool queues.
I don't know what my master thesis will be about yet Hildor. Our master thesises in computer science come in the form of "jobs", so I will find a project that someone wants done and do it.

Just wanted to say "hello" again. In "my" forum I'm moderating in the recent days have been very, very tough. A very ill member hs been declered dead, but she isn't now everyone - including me, as a moderator - is trying to find out who that was. And suddenly we - the few active moderators - found out that we can't trust most people anymore. Well, at least some. And that we know in fact less than we had always thought we knew. This is getting on my nerves. This is very serious, but I don't know how to handle it. Without the help I get there, I could be nearly helpless. So far, we assume that someone somehopw got into an account - which is going on my nerves, too. It just makes me feel uneasy. We're not too near to resolving it soon. We just don't have enough information. Only small puzzle-pieces, so far. But still we *must* go on trying to find out more about it.

Have you checked the IP address on the post making the announcement, Alrik? That may help narrow your suspects down a little...

Alrik, why not just temporarily disable that member's account? It could possibly be a stupid prank by someone who hacked into it.
