    Any suggestions for what a depressed, 20 year old girl who has just been dumped to do in Houston?

    Not that I know that I want to get out, but I thought I'd ask.

    Possible scenarios to explain last comment...

    A) Folicly challenged Drew overcompensates with a perpetual combover, hence possessing a neverending part.

    B) Biblically obsessed Drew yammers on in a non-stop examination of Exodus, focussing forever on the Red Sea, and it's, er, division.

    C) Drew is still in casting for his home movies, as he has yet to find anyone to realistically portray the part of his love interest.

    What about just sitting back, relaxing, and watching chick flicks? Sounds good for a chick not feeling to well........

    Speaking of bad jokes, I was (unsuccessfully) attempting to make light of the missing 'y', but I obviously didn't get your joke...

    Seriously, though, Princess, I'm not sure what your situation is, but I doubt if drinking alone is the answer...Get out (or in) with some good friends, read a good book, go dancing, play a game, contemplate eternity in a navel, but by all means don't go the getting drunk solo way...Managed/tender bars for a few years, and have seen too many people just spiral down into despair on an alchohol-enhanced ride to not advise you to take it easy.

    Don't live in Houston, so I can't help you out with specifics, but in my experience, call some good friends up and let them play Tonto for the night....

    Damn Princess. I'm sorry. I haven't talked to you before I think, and I do disagree with a lot of your strong opinions, but it was very obvious that you and Lynus had a strong thing going. So I feel bad when someone, even someone I don't know, gets depressed enough to type it on the Clutch BBS.

    If you were in College Station, I'd invite you to come party with my friends and I. Since the summer, we've been chillin and partying four or five nights a week.

    I'd say go hang out with your friends, but I guess you've already thought of that or decided not to do that.

    You could always go to the museums and on sunny days, you could go to the zoo.

    Whenever I feel really down, I'd go shoot hoops.

    (sigh) I really don't know what else to say at this time. Feel free and email me at kmx03@yahoo.com if you just want to get crap of your chest. I don't think I'm in a position to be concerned about you, but drowing your sorrows in a bottle might not be the best way to go.

    You could watch Payback on TNT right not. It looks good.

    Thanks for all the support guys!

    I'm not totally drowning my sorrows in alcohol. I only had a small bottle and that's about all that's in the whole house (since I'm home for the summer living with my mom).

    The thing about doing stuff with friends is that most of my good friends from school don't live here and I've lost touch with the ones from high school.

    I guess I'll just curl up with a movie. I was kind of looking for something different or a good place to go for minors, but I don't really feel like getting out.

    Really appreciate it though. I'm sure I'll be looking for something to do again so keep the suggestions coming! :)

    Princess, do you meet the following quotas?



    You like sports?

    You like trucks, and cars.

    You don't mind me talking about Anna Kournikova 24/7

    You like good rock music, some rap music, and good very good 80s, new wave music.

    You like cool nifty asian boys.

    Oh yeah, can't forgot those long walks on the beach, and movie and a dinner or something.

    Let's see what else. Also, can you do my taxes next april? And change my oil for me.

    whenever i get depressed, i grab my favorite slow jam CD, jump in the car, put the top down, and just drive around town... it always makes me a feel a bit better to get some fresh air...

    hope you cheer up soon!

    Kam- check your email.

    Princess- When I'm depressed, me and my friends just go out and spraypaint ridiculous stuff on the cars and homes of people we don't like. It's fun and the rush should make you forget about everything.

    Or you could just hang out with a depressed 19-year-old like me, play him like a fool, and be back on the road to nirvana. ;)

    Don't feel too bad, princess.

    I'm sure you will find someone else.

    In the meantime, listen to some Pantera or Sepultura or some good ole punk rock like the Misfits, Bad Religion, or "London Calling" by the Clash.

    It always cheers me up when I'm depressed.

    The intention was to spell "party" incorrectly to push the idea that I am an immature 15 year-old who cant even spell party right much less have one going on nonstop at his house. Sorry for my horrible attempt at humor, maybe we should just kick ourselves in the ass and move on.

    Hey, why don't you just read this thread all night, it's turned out to be pretty funny.
    Other than that, the only fun thing I can think of to do in Houston if you're 20 is move away from Houston. That's what I did, and it's worked pretty well the last 6 months or so. Houston sucks, the only good things there are my best friends and the Rockets. But fck it, Austin has neither of those two things...no such thing as a perfect world, so I just try and compensate for that which is lacking with constant sexual promiscuity. It works for females too, try it. :)
