The other day I was feeling lonely because I joined a course at my church and I tried praying to God about where I should sit and we got numbered. I ended up being in a group where I felt the leader seems to be jealous of me because her husband was there and we know eachother and I ended up feeling so uncomfortable and restricted during the whole engagement and also, I felt there was no one in the group I'd like to be friends with so it was a bad experience. However, they had said in the beginning that if we want to join a different group other than the # of the group assigned, we can. So after asking for Godly advice from other Christians, I've decided I will just join a different group so I am feeling better about this now.
Also, during that time, I got this nice guy to get someone else to schedule a virtual appointment with me regarding funding for my education and he didn't show up. I e-mailed asking what happened and hoping he's ok and it is 2 and a half weeks later and he hasn't replied back to me. Luckily, it's because of the nice guy again who will be booking me for an appointment with someone else now so eventually by the end of the week I found that out from him when I called him back as he tried calling me earlier but I missed his calls. And before that, I went to the virtual info session and I remember I was the only one who entered in the chat my complete contact info as requested but I didn't receive the documents they were supposed to give me and the nice guy said I wasn't put on the list for having attended the info session!
All this on top of some vague stuff gave me a bad day.

I have a good impression of you but I really encourage you to change your username to one that doesn't degrade yourself.Going very well this Sunday, thank you kindly.
Staying in the Lord and experiencing His blessings.
Shittim is an honorable name from God's Word. If it is perceived as "degrading," perhaps it is more in the line of the one perceiving having jumped to a conclusion. Others have done the same, not being familiar with the Biblical source for this name
Perhaps were you to give it an Hebrew pronunciation it would not seem so offensive, try Shee-teem. Now that is nicer in the mind is it not? God bless you bigtime and always.

God bless you, and thank you for the credit. I truly am not the brightest light in God's chandelier. I am reminded of this daily.
Look it up, it has been explained before. The last place the Chosen people camped before crossing over to the Promised land
It refers to the acacia tree, shee-tah having changed the pronunciation of the second syllable in transliteration.
The location must have had these trees.

Hebrew word שטטה (shitta)
The term "Shittim" originates from the Hebrew word שטטה (shitta), which refers to the acacia tree. It is associated with a location east of the Jordan where the Israelites camped before entering the Promised Land. The name is mentioned in various biblical texts, including Numbers and Joshua, and is linked to significant events such as the Baal-peor incident and the sending of spies to Jericho. Additionally, "Shittim" is also used to describe the wood of the acacia tree, which was used in the construction of the Ark of the Covenant.

Here it is in Hebrew מן־השׁטים, before the hyphen, after the hyphen is a preposition....
hay shin tav yod mem. Hebrew lettering is right to left.

Thank you @shittim ,@JaumeJ !
Anyway, I haven't been feeling very happy. More like impatient. I felt that I have been really patient for so long already. I would like to get down to at least 1.5mg of my antipsychotic medication by now, half a mg more. I feel 2mg is a bit too much but I have to wait 1 more week to be able to reduce it again and see if it will work out. I guess I need to work on my patience and then I will have joy. So I will have to distract myself with other things to increase my patience.

The mem in the spelling should read mem soffit, one of the Hebrew letters that changes when at the end of a word. Also, Shittime is plural, ergo ending with the im sound.
ps, : I did mention I am not the brightest, etc.
I am feeling impatient, because I have been back on 3mg of my antipsychotic medication due to reducing too much of it too quickly as I wanted to reduce it to at least 1.5mg for now after 1 week of going down to 2mg but I couldn't.
Next, I have to wait until up to 4 business days which is some time on Monday to receive my voucher code for my application to waive the fee in order to get my acceptance letter as a part of my process for funding for my education.
Also, my medication causes me a lack of motivation and I tried not drinking coffee for over a day but I found that I couldn't otherwise I would be unproductive, and now I can't sleep. Tomorrow I have church though and other errands to run so that is good. Getting closer I guess is all that I can do.

Now I know as always showed to be the case, if I want to try to reduce to a lower dose, I have wait at least 1 month so that will be January, 1st. That's why I can't wait until the New Year!
And I can't wait until next week Monday so that I should receive the voucher code. Also Tuesday I have my life group to go to. I'm looking forward to that. Wednesday I have to go somewhere with a group that I signed up for. I am hoping that maybe I can meet more people I could be friends with. Thursday I have to cook Lemongrass chicken and Friday, I have an appointment with my consultant for the funding for my education, unless I cancel it if I don't have all the documents ready. Then on the weekend I've got to visit my dad and go to church together and spend the day with my family!!! So I'm excited about the next week, starting tomorrow! Very busy!

I'm starting to feel a bit Christmasy now. It will be December 1st tonight and the weather is like winter.
