(11-21-7) A Depressing Thanksgiving?

[Vital Viper]

Well the holiday season is at hand and almost everyone is excited. Sadly I'm not in that group. I'm actually down about it. This is my first Thanksgiving completely away from ANYONE even remotely related to me. Not only that but the family I stay with is going camping for Thanksgiving so I'm left all alone at the house. Even my best friend is off spending time with his family (something he wishes he didn't have to do.) On top of all that I have to work. YES I have to WORK on Thanksgiving.

So now that I'm done complaining lets do something constructive.

What is the one thing you are MOST thankful for?

I'm thankful for grace.

[FINDINGFOUR EST. 1937]

Im most Thankful for my Family(no pun Intended). I dont think I can handle spending a holiday away from home.

[Karbon]

Im thankful for my music i create. Im thankfull that me and doodlebug are friends.:D

[007Honey]

I'm on my way!:D

Actually it's pretty hard when most of your family is in another country too! (Grandparents especially):(

[Vital Viper]

It is even worse when both your Grandmothers have died in the past two years. :(

[007Honey]

Oh you poor thing.
I'm feeling really sorry for you now. If you were a girl I'd say get a sappy movie and eat some choclate when you get home and remember lots of people care about you.
What boys do,I wouldn't hazard a guess at, so whatever it is do it and just take the last bit of the previous sentence.
Id say hugs but snakes hug a little too hard!:)

[Lily]

I'm thankful, for my parents. I wouldn't have this depressing but, also great life that I take for granted.

[Makarov]

I'm thankful for being alive. ;)

[worldking01]

all my grandparents died in the past 5 months


i am thankfull for rain

[I'm so clever, it's cool]

I'm thankful, for my parents. I wouldn't have this depressing but, also great life that I take for granted.
Ironic that two years ago I would have taken an identical attitude as your own.

I am thankful for everyone that makes my life what it is, such as my friends and relatives.

[Vital Viper]

Well here is my Thanksgiving update.

My Thanksgiving lunch was a microwavable corn dog and a ham and cheese hot pocket. I leave for work in an hour or two.

On the bright side I'm watching football and I'm about to log onto CP and hang out.

Don't you have friends that you could hang out with? I feel bad that you aren't having a great thanksgiving.

[007Honey]

Don't you have friends that you could hang out with? I feel bad that you aren't having a great thanksgiving.

Yeah I was wondering about that! You must have some local friends!
Otherwise fill er up and come to California!

[Vital Viper]

I just recently moved to a completely new state and since I've been here I have been more focused on school and work than I have social interaction.

As of right now I'm in my igloo in Mammoth.

Is Vital Viper full? buddylist?

Yea it is full but if I get off work on time I will probably clear my list a little and add some people at the opening of the surprise party!

lol so you can't do it now? :P

[Bpnoone]

Yo Vital! I'm sorry to hear what happened, but you never know, next time it could turn out better ;). BTW, could we meet on CP please? Brumby, Iceberg on Vic Viper if you prefer.

[Vital Viper]

I'm actually headed to work now and just logged off CP. If you are on at the opening of the surprise party tonight you have a good chance of being added!

Thanks for the happiest part of my Thanksgiving :P

[Bpnoone]

Ah well! I probably won't be at the opening, but, could we meet another day if not at the opening later? and, what time PST? ;)

[Nikzero]

I am thankful for feeling when I wake up that a new day is waiting for me to use it. :)

[Flame_593]

Ah well! I probably won't be at the opening, but, could we meet another day if not at the opening later? and, what time PST? ;)

andykohl is deleted too!!!!!!!! nooooooooo! not fair!

[CPWT]

Life, and god i mean come on we wouldnt have anything without it!

[007Honey]

So if we're talking about depressing Thanksgiving's, see what you think of this.

My mother,who is very sick is currently in hospital where it's possible she might not even come home again.
My role in the home is now to be the mom (oldest girl)and I think i'm a little too young for this responsibility.
One of my sisters resents that and won't do a thing i say.
My big bro is trying to sort out my father who is cracking under the strain of his business and the fact that my mom is so ill and I saw him cry for the first time since he was a little kid last night.That was hard.
My long term boyfriend (2 years)who split with me last month is now begging for me to come back to him and won't stop phoning,mailing,getting on my friend's nerves.I don't know what to do about it as his past makes it hard to just tell him it's over.
To cap it all, a small child in our family may have to go into care (Her mom is having a breakdown)and the only person who could possibly stop this happening who has the time and patience for her is...yep,me!
I don't type this for sympathy, only so u can see that there are bad Thanksgiving's and even worse Thanksgivings. I may be doing CP from the mental home soon! Lol!
Happy Thanksgiving!:|

[Flame_593]

andykohl is deleted too!!!!!!!! nooooooooo! not fair!

nevermind, they're both on my ,list again:D

Wow! I'm so sorry.
No, do not get back with your boyfriend if the only reason is because you feel sorry for him. Do NOT! You will both be just fine in time. (unless he's a psychopath....not to scare you or anything.)
In fact, if you can get away with not dating anyone until you go to college or are thinking about marriage, do it. You'll save yourself a lot of headache. Just ask RFS.

I know what you mean about being the mom. I didn't take over everything; and I don't like to talk about it; but let's just say that I was the one who held my brothers' hands when they were learning to write. My sister was part mom; but I had more for some reason, probably because I seemed the most likely to not complain about it.

I hope you all had some nice times on your Thanksgiving despite all.

[Karbon]

Maybe you should have hang out with RFS since you bought go to the same school.:O

[007Honey]

Thx JuneBelle.
So you know a little of what it's like then to be 'Mom'!
Ya we had a good time despite the problems as we invited another family over and I managed not to burn the turkey and they seemed to all enjoy it!
Yeah my ex was put into care at the age of six and is well a bit messed uo so it's hard to say no to him as it's like another rejection but I'm going to try to be firm.
As for college that got messed up for me in the transfer from the Uk to here so I don't go to college. Anyway looks like I'm set to go into Dad's business anyway so my life is being mapped out for me.
As this forum is not about me I better leave it there! It's like a freak show in my life but don't worry my humor gets me through.:)

No problem. :D
Yeah, I know all about how you try to tell your siblings to do something; but they don't do it saying,"I don't have to do it. You're not my mother!" Then your parents come along and say,"Listen to her. She's in charge." But they don't.

Wow! You had to cook the turkey? I help cook; but no one wants to see me doing anything complicated or have to taste it. They all want to keep their taste buds in working order. ;)

EDIT
Well, okay, that's not the complete truth. If I really tried, I could probably manage to cook fairly well; but I have neither the time nor the energy to try.
FINISH EDIT

That's okay. College age is what I should have said.
Are you happy with that? You know you aren't really stuck at it. You can just keep doing that but look at some other options that would make you more happy.

[Vital Viper]

Yea I know I'm not the worse off, and there is always someone out there that has it worse than you.

I've been through worse time as well, it was just different being so so alone on a day that celebrates being with others.

Hope everything gets better for ya 007Honey, I'll pray for ya :)

[vjjason]

Im thankful for my parents and all the great things that happened in my life :) im also thankful for vital adding me lol :D

Thankyou.That means a lot from such a nice guy.:)(I mean his personality incase anyone get's the wrong idea!)
I hope it didn't seem like I was minimizing your problems.We all have a cross to bear.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.;)

[Lily]

VV, that's such a ....tragedy. Not being your family on Thanksgiving. I speechless. Thanksgiving is a time for sharing and giving thank with your loved ones. Life goes on.
That's the realization , it always comes to.

[Zelrio]

I know it is over, but you shouldn't feel that way, I mean you have RFS who goes to the same school as you, after all. :P

[Vital Viper]

I know it is over, but you shouldn't feel that way, I mean you have RFS who goes to the same school as you, after all. :P
School is out over Thanksgiving break. He lives in one direction and I in another.

and besides, he has his own family that he should be spending time with.

Ahoy Snakey!:P I know this is kind of off-topic but i've got to ask you...do you have space for me on your buddy list?:) If yes please,please,please meet me in Brumby-Dojo.:D I'm sorry i couldn't come Friday at the opening of the party because i was going to school.-_- It was 7:15AM in Malta!:O

P.S Please don't give me an infraction, i wil edit this post later

Yeah, I'm out of school as well. But the fact the two of you are reptiles puts you in a close animal family, amirite? Jokes aside don't be sad, it's more enjoyable spending the holidays alone.

Well I went to go add you but somehow I've ended up with 107 buddies and would have to remove 8 people that I JUST added in order to add you :(

Then I was still going to hang out but when I checked how many buddies I had I saw that my penguin is 666 days old :O

I will not be playing CP today, sry.

I'm actually not a very big fan of reptiles.

I'll have to disagree, I'd rather be around family.

Well I'm going to avoid making a blunt "666" joke here. But you'd rather be around family? I guess it is Thanksgiving spirit and all... That is sort of mean that none of your relatived called you or anything, since it is normal to want to be with close ones on such a holiday.

[Poisenman101]

Hey Vital!!! The cowboys came through. That's something to be thankful for.;)

[Dracophile]

Man, Vital Viper is talking about his personal life, and this thread is mostly posts asking to be his buddy in Club Penguin, that's not cool.

But hey Vital, at least the Cowboys won, right? :) I'll see you in class Tuesday. I checked the post office today and I got a package slip, which means that any one of my 5 enroute things could be in. :O :D

We I guess thats why I usually just tuck my real life away in favor of the "Almighty Perfect Vital Viper Celebrity" image.

Yea, I was sure to record the game while I was gone almost all day at work. They have had a good season but it is the playoffs that matter and we have been having bad games there for a long time.

I guess I'll see you in class!

[Robo]

Alot of my family members were out of town. Or celebrating with their other family. Kind of a boring Thanksgiving.:|

[rulerofgame]

Thats really sad Viper.Why would you have ot work on Thanksgiving?Is it like a busy place or something??

[Freebee93]

Poor Viper... i can't imagine thanks giving without family.

Haha! That was funny! Everytime we go back to the Uk that's what my relatives all say. Then it's usually,"Can you sort my cell phone,tv,dvd player etc out,you young ones are better with these things!":D
Lol!Shame about the poor guy though.I hate hearing about things like that when I can't really help in anyway.Sounds like your Mom has the right idea though.

haha, thanks. but they were pretty funny old people.
and yea; my mom has a good head on her shoulders? lol.

i would give [almost] anything to go to england.. its actually quite funny, my friends are like "bahamas or england" everyone says "bahamas, DUH!" and i say "england."
i can't help it they have the most adorable accent ^^

[Teater]

my thanksgiving wasn't much better i temporally live in holland and they don't have turkey here so we went out to eat and had chicken instead.(it wasn't very good :rolleyes:)

Everywhere I go here in California (even the food store!) people stop and say "Oh I love your accent,where is it from?" As if it were separate to me somehow! :D
That's why I love American's so much because most make us Brit's feel really special.
I never tire of saying phrases from Harry Potter or Pride and Predjudice to their great delight!
:)

[wweadam]

Well Vital, your thanksgiving is depressing to me as well. I am sure something good will eventually come out of everything bad that everyone goes through. Me, I am thankful for everything that I have. (My house, family, the little money we have, food, computer, etc.)

[Dracophile]

lol you're talkin about me eh Dwagon? lol i needed to add him-URGENT!:P

Well, if you're asking to be his buddy in this thread then yes.

"Gee, I am not looking forward to Thanksgiving this year. I won't be able to celebrate it with anyone and I have to be at work. :("

"LOL DAT'S FUNNEY WILL U MEET ME ON CP AND ADD ME PLZ. :D"

I dunno, that (everyone asking that in this thread) just did not sit well with me.
