Is it typical of students to be so whiny?

( nightmares. )
[Filtered to Zeus]
I know it's very, very late, and I'm very, very sorry. This is stupid, but I can't...seem to sleep. I keep having these...really horrid nightmares about...I don't even know, things that happened a long, long time ago. I don't know why, but they involve you, and Hera and I just...I don't...
I've never had nightmares quite this badly before. I don't mean to bother you. This is just...ridiculous.
[Text to Tim]
I can't sleep. I just can't.

(Flauros was aware that he'd just posted on here last night, but he was still bothered. He was bothered by the fact that one of his peers had made a comment about their lack of free speech; bothered by the fact that a faculty member had swooped in to tell said student to 'shut up.' So she hadn't really said that, but to Flauros she might as well have.
Most of all, Flauros was bothered by the fact that the message given by the RA was filtered specifically to students in the dorms. Did not all the students use the same forum? It made no sense to Flauros. He figured the best course of action would be to ask them.
Even if they didn't answer, even if they told him to stop complaining. Well, at least he filtered it away from that one teacher.)
I'll keep this short. Sometime ago one of the RA's made a post about how our speech isn't free. He filtered this to students living in the dorms.
From what I can tell, all students, whether or not they live in the dorms, use the same forum.
Can you see where I'm going with this?
Or does this mean that if I move to an apartment then I can mock religion all I want?
On second thought, Flauros decided not to send the message.

Dearest sisters, it's come to my attention that I am not being a good brother. Come over for dinner sometime.

I spotted baby wolves in the Black Wood. I almost took one as a souvenir.

I have finally ventured outside and done something all on my own.
I saw a movie. (Please refrain from any mocking or insulting comments and, instead, look upon me sympathetically and, instead, opt for a slow-clap or raised brow. I thank you in advance.) I saw 21 Jump Street.
Perhaps it is a cultural or generational gap (I'm not that old, though), but I didn't understand why the boy at the counter would actually suggest this as being epic hilarity. It was all very vulgar and gross humor. I can't say I hated it, but it certainly wasn't epic by any proportions.

A student argued with me today. I lost.
Unruly students. Help?

I'm only excited for a story when their emotions became raw with the pain of the situation. Exposing everything for the other person to see is a brave move that few have the courage to experience. Their emotional torment tugs on the heartstrings and no matter if you have experienced the situation before or not, you feel it in your heart. That sore thud echoing the pain that they must feel. When actors execute such a performance that ends with the audience in tears or a singer that can in perfect harmony find that essence. It's absolutely beautiful.

When Ganymede wakes up for the nth time, Lilia decides he's had enough for a night. It had been all too easy, the boy's dreamscape already blatantly pointed towards the Olympian queen. If the cupbearer runs to Zeus, the likely suspects would be the Oneroi, children of Hera's bastard daughter. Of course, Zeus will know better than to hurl accusations at the basileia or at her progeny without further basis - lawyer that he is, he will know the futility of circumstantial evidence.
But even this is not enough guarantee for the Fairy Queen. Without delving any further into the Trojan's sleeping moments, she will leave her doll in Ganymede's care for a little while longer. Let the boy think it was a one-off matter, either a mere coincidence or a chance prank by one of the gods of dreams. Let the King dissociate her doll from the nightmares, on the slim chance that he takes the matter far more seriously than need be.
Perhaps she should attempt subtly perfuming Tanner's pillow the next time Tim seems off-kilter about their relationship. Her hold could last a week or two instead of a mere handful of days. But this is enough for now, she reiterates as she at last retreats into the sanctity of her own glorious mind.

So, I can't help but notice the amount of you...complaining, for a lack of a better word, about your students. First of all, you're making me feel ridiculously ancient, but I can live with that.
Secondly, yes. Students are whiny, unruly, and from the looks of things, not quite right in the head. But it looks like, to me at least, that there is very little effort made to understand the source of the whining and the unruly behavior. I'm not saying anyone needs to consider every little bitchfest a valid point, but the fact of the matter is, if you approach them in a way that makes it seem like what they're doing is stupid and pointless, it will kill their motivation to make anything substancial out of whatever it is they're complaining about.
That was a bit of a run-on, wasn't it? I apologize.
Basically, I've learned that if you charge at someone with an air that obviously says "You're a kid and you don't know what you're talking about.", they're going to act like kids who don't know what they're talking about.
On that topic, you're all doing the best you can, given the insanity of the situations we get around here. You should be proud of yourselves for putting up with the sort of individuals and personalities that you do. What you do here is very important, and for God's sake, have a drink or something.

Ugh, the Avengers Premier is streaming live on YouTube as we speak. I'm currently vacillating rapidly between elated and depressed. (Robert Downey Junior, that car. We need to talk.)
I mean, can someone explain to me why there are only two countries that get to see the Avengers movie after us? There is some serious injustice going on here.
Don't get me wrong here. I'm all about Australia and Belgium and Italy. (Okay, maybe not with France, but who is okay with France? Honestly?) Totally down with their right to witness all of the superheroic glory. But can I just take a moment to highlight the fact that one of our main characters here is named Captain America? It's practically my patriotic duty to be watching this in an immediate fashion. I feel like I'm being betrayed by my own country.
I could totally take this red carpet host out. All I need is a jet. And maybe to not be wearing my Batman pajamas. Bit of a conflict of interest there.

So I was insulted today by a guppy. Then the discus started in, all because I decided to go out in a pair of shorts. Like the fish really care about fashion. Pet store fish are worse than aquarium fish, believe you me.
Kind of mad there's no Aquaman movie coming out, and that the Avengers don't even mention Namor.

The talent show was a success! I think I did pretty good with my song. I probably would have won if I was allowed to. I'm still angry/upset with what happened, but the thorn in my side is now being poked by my roommate. At least he's a little easier to deal with.

I want a new roommate. If he's going to get all bitchy because of- How would you feel if- Can't some people just- What does it matter if I-
I want a new roommate.
Is it strange to want to dote on the woman you've been searching for since you've realized she's the reason for the hole in your heart. Yes, dramatic and all, but that's the way I feel. Would the brother have a problem with that, even though he knows my intentions are nothing but honorable because I don't like any woman in a sexual sense? Does it matter that I was asked to help and I tried because I would probably do anything for her?
This is all...overwhelming? Do I feel this way about her because of- I can't even finish the sentence! I don't know how to explain it! Would it have been better if I wasn't... I'm not stringing her along. Am I? Help? :/
