>got shit done
>but super stressed about financial strains
>can't decide to stay at an unsatisfactory job or move back home where work's hard to find
>debating on returning to school
>don't want to fall even more in debt
>don't even know what to even study
>tfw you might be too dumb/incapable of pursuing jobs that pay the brand

I guess it's all the matter of trying.

I also hate that I'm always considered the quiet one or really reliable because I'm super organized, but very few know that I'm constantly stressed out, so I have to keep organized or I'll lose my shit.

The hell happened to our feels thread?
Whatever, it's lolita related anyway.

>decide to go to Anime Midwest
>want to support Baby, but only own a skirt and jsk from them
>don't want to wear the same jsk; skirt is too short to accommodate petti and slightly damaged

>suddenly see a dream jsk

captcha...I don't know if a frozen mocha and a milk shake is technically ice cream.

I messaged him about the macaron skirt and jsk, but said that it's not likely to happen.

Recently

Man. Fuck Japan and their Aryanphilia

I don't know how cgl related this is, but I seriously need to avoid facebook more often or at least hide certain people's posts. I'm just sick of seeing (their) SJW-tumblr-esque statuses. For example, lately, I'm seeing a bunch of my female friends posting a bunch of "body appreciation" photos of themselves. Sure, for the most part, I like the concept of positive body images, but dammit, some people are just fucking dumb. You don't exactly want that shit online if you're planning on getting a professional career.

A more cgl related note, I haven't gotten a whole lot of requests to join my lolita community, but I noticed that there are very few people who are actually into lolita and frequent meets, and a majority of people there were just added on by other people in the group who are actually a part of the local Homestuck group (Damn...now I feel sad that the loli comm is no where near as big and active as HS and we've been around a lot longer). It seems like it's just one of those things I have to wait it out for. Maybe I'll "clean up" the membership list toward the end of the year.

I am a bit concerned about a girl who I added into the group a little over a year ago.

>met girl at a local con
>huge girl in a M*lanoo-esque maid-like "lolita" dress w/cat ears
>invited her to my info/basics panel
>wasn't able to show up, but when we met earlier, she expressed interest in learning more about the fashion
>year later at the same con
>shows up in the same exact outfit

God-fucking-dammit. I don't think she bothered to read the file pages of important links, but if she did, she either didn't follow up and/or I failed to offer personal guidance. I guess I should be glad that she hasn't ever shown up to a single meet (not that we had many lately), but I hate it when this kind of thing happens.

my boyfriend just sent me a picture of him four wheeling with some girl I don't know. It's one in the morning.
I'm trying to not be a jealous gf cgl, trying so hard

Why is lolita the only fucking interest where the deviants think they can mingle with anyone and talk to them like everyone are deviants.

Stop giving brolitas such as bad image. Like 1/5 lolitas think of people like technotropism or Spelendora, and the rest thing of how creepy some man in a milanoo dress has been to them before.

> make our own thread, specifically stating it's for fatties
> anons come in
> 'you guys are FAT'
> wow, such observe

I'm here because I'm a man and burando is never going to happen for me. But that doesn't mean I won't stand up for my strong independent loli anons

>TFW she actually did that with a plastic bag.
