Can you write a story about being in a mental institution with the following phrases?
As I am walking into this strange building, for the first time i think to myself "can it get any worse than this?" I cant believe that my first job out of nursing school is going to be at an mental institution. But by now, im going broke, and my parents are tired of supporting me, so what choice do I have? I walk up to the first man I see (big mistake) and ask he if he could tell me where the DIrector's office is. he turns to me and says "The hills are alive with the sound of music!". I am completly horrified, because by now everyone in the reception area is staring at me. Thank goodness a guy comes over and leads this crazy man away by the shoulders, as I try and catch my breath preparing for what may happen next. The guy returns shortyly and ask my name. "Terry..Terry Burns." I reply. He says "nice to meet you Terry, Im MIke, and that was just Tom..he has issues.." I laugh it off, trying to hide my embrassment, as I follow Mike to the director's office.
"No Elephants Allowed In My Room!!!" i hear someone yell, as i walk down the corrodor, im wondering what the hell i got myself into. We finally reach the directors office and he of coarse is busy, so i take a seat. Mike kindly ecscorts his self out of the room, to go and handle some crazy person who is running down the hall, screaming "Please hide me! My wife is coming to visit". I am so rethinking this position. I mean whats food anyway? do i really need to eat and live in an apartment?
Finally the director comes out of his office and greets me with a smile. He asks me to come into his office to fill out some paperwork. As i enter his office I look around and I am amazed at how clean and organized it is. Big difference from the way the outside of the building looks. He extends his hand and tells me to have a seat, offers me coffee and the excuses hisself to see what the disturbance is down the hall, as i wait for him to come back i notice a book on his desk entitled "your mental capacity is simply amazing". I wonder what this book is about. I am in deep thought as a man sneeks up behind me and grabs my ear! I get up and yell to him "Let go of my ear!!!" I push him off of me and run from the room and this scary digusting building, never to return. Maybe i can work for my uncle at his car garage, anything has got to be better than this!!
Reply:1: I eat no matter what time of day it is.
2: He will always lift a leg for a visitor.
3: Have you seen the light of day lately.
4: With every one.
5: Because they break my bed.
6: From the birds and trees.
7: Everybody all of the time and don't care about pleasing myself.
8: And into my mouth, it tastes good.
9: I don't like to speak to her on the phone nor, do I want to see her, she is not nice to me.
10: Never any toilet paper in my room.
Reply:ok...... i'll try to post a little something. i've been writing all day so i don't know how good it'll be........ but i'll try a little something
can you hold to tomorrow? please?
DON'T CLOSE! i'll have this crap story POSTED TODAY!!
Thanks!!!! Dont...........................close it! lol
Reply:We were not sure if the suspect was pretending to be insane or not. So, I volunteered to be placed in the mental institution with him for a close monitoring. I was lucky enough to share the same room with him. He was suspected to be the Manhattan serial killer. And had been acting insane since he was picked up.
"Here, is your bedspace, Mr. Jones, Tom Ling shares this same room space with you. Hope you guys can get along. You do share quite em...a lot in common." Said the nurse as she led me into the hospital ward. She was a beautiful, willowy blond who sent my heart racing with every smile of hers that lighted up the room.
"That’s my dog! You idiot!" screamed Tom as I made to sit on my bed. And with that cry he seized the bedsheet and pulled it away like the demented person he appeared to be.
"That’s just Tom, he has issues of his own just like you." explained the nurse as she gently tugged the bedsheets away from him. "Tom you must learn to live with Jones. He may likely be here for a long while."
"No elephants allowed in my room," said Tom looking at me strangely.
"I am not an elephant," I said to him. "Would you like to play hide and seek?" I asked him.
"Oh! I want to! I want to PLEASE!" he said brightly "I would hide and you seek. Do not look under the bed though!"
"Your metal capacity is simply amazing!" said the nurse and she let out a loud guffaw. "You have given away your hiding place."
"I have?" asked Tom looking surprised. "You hide me then, nurse. Please hide me! My wife is coming to visit!" he cried.
"You are not married, Mr Ling." said the nurse in surprise
"I can’t help it, I just get hungry for a wifey. I am so lonesome here. Would you marry me?" asked Tom
"Can it get any worse than this??" The nurse asked turning to stare at me.
"You can marry me instead," I said "I can make you a wedding ring now." And I showed her a piece of copper wire.
Reply:"Hear ye, hear ye! The meeting of the order of the eccentric duck is now in session! We will go around the room and introduce ourselves for the benefit of new members!"
I mean, can it get any worse than this? I checked myself into Shadybrook institution two months ago for the sole purpose of avoiding a police investigation and now I"m in charge of the order of the eccentric duck! I mean, I wanted full fledge crazy people! Whack jobs! Not eccentrics!
"Quack! My name is Ernie Harraway and I am self institutionalized. My invisible friend and I have not gotten along in recent weeks and both of us thought we may need counseling paid for by the state. So here I sit, and this is Tom, my friend, to my left. Please to meet you! Quack!"
The next man stood. "Quack! My name is Denny Byrd and I'm here serving a two year sentence for assault with a deadly sausage. I was sleeping with my neighbor when her husband came home and caught us in the act. My neighbor had always kept a keelbasa on the night stand for a post coital snack, so I used it to flatten her husband and run to freedom. I forgot my pants however, so the cops had no trouble labeling me as the 'keelbasa bandit.' I'm pleased to meet you! Quack!"
This went on for an hour, everyone standing and sharing all their embarassing personal details. Meetings of the order of the eccentric duck could literally go on for half a day. But what else was there to do in an institution? True, being self committed I was free to leave, but I would likely be in jail within a month of doing so, therefore it was quack on brother!
The last man, a newcomer stood.
"Quack! I'm Chubby Checker, and I like to nibble on ear lobes. I can't help it. I just get hungry, and there is nothing like the candy sweet taste of an ear lobe. And- HEY! Let go of my ear! Ahhhh! Aaahhhh-
"We have a genuine crazy in here!" Ernie yelled. "Move for immediate removal!"
"Seconded!" yelled Charlie Finkel.
"Very well," I sighed. "Chubby Checker, you are hereby removed from the eccentric order of the duck. Please turn in your tail feathers and report to the severely paranoid and delusional order of the wildebeast. Chuck Sweeney will enroll you."
"Aaaaaahhhhh-" was Chubby's Checker's long winded reply. I could see he was going to be difficult, so I needed to get a handle on this.
"Orderly!" I screamed. A huge slab of beef in a white uniform appeared. "We have a whacko interrupting our meeting!"
The orderly sighed and approached Chubby Checker. For his part, Mr. Checker began screaming louder.
Out of the blue, a book flew across the room and slammed itself into Mr. Checker's head, dropping him like a stone. All eyes turned to Ernie who was innocently running his finger's through his hair.
"What?" He asked?
"Was that necessary?" The orderly asked.
"That wasn't me. That's just Tom, he as issues."
"Ernie. There is no Tom. He's your invisible friend remember?"
"Oh he's quite real to me," Ernie replied, as if that explained anything at all.
But it worked. The orderly gave a nod and slung the groaning form of Chubby Checker over his shoulder. They disappeared down the hallway and peace reigned once more.
"So what's the first order of business?" I asked, knowing but following protocol nonetheless.
"Ooooh!" Dewey George yelled, waving his arm. "Please hide me! My wife is coming to visit!"
"Dewey," I replied following the unwritten script. "Your wife ran off with Rosie O'donnel. You know that."
"But she could come!"
"Okay Dewey," I said. "Go hide."
And off he went. For the next two hours of the meeting, he could be seen crawling under tables and diving behind couches in the common room. And so the meeting of the ecentric order of the duck rolled on.
Denny made a motion to outlaw Keelbasa from all future meetings. There had never been Keelbasa in any past meetings, so the motion was tabled until the issue actually arose. Billy White handed out "refreshments" that consisted of pill cubs filled with water fountain water and cookie pieces from yesterday's lunch. Roger Donahue gave a heartfelt broadway rendition of "The Hills are alive with the Sound of Music" while wearing a nun's habit. And all the while I ruled on motions, quacked myself horse, and generally wished myself anywhere but here at this point in my life.
Finally, four and a half hours later, we adjourned. These meetings could mentally drain you, so I shuffled down the hall intent on taking a little siesta in my drab room. Along the way, I passed Dicky Fogler and accidentally bumped into the rock he was taking for a walk.
"That's my dog! You idiot!" He hissed.
"Sorry Dicky. Didn't see Rover was with you."
FInally, I made it to the refuge of my room. With a weary sigh, I settled myself on to the uncomfortable metal bed and turned to face the window.
"Jervis," I whispered. "I have got to get out of here."
The purple brontosaurus gaving me a knowing nod through the sanitarium glass.........

Interesting Facts?

A duck's quack does echo. It;'s just an urban myth that it doesn't. I know. I've heard it.

What should I do if my college roomie is a bully?
My college roommate has picked on me because he feels that I am soft, socially inept, and fat. He also is very muscular. He always greets me with degrading names like loser, geekburger, and nerd boy. Whenenever I eat he compares me to big animals such as whales, pigs, and elephants. He also cuffs me in the head, sting my neck or ear with a rubber band, and throws water balloons at me when im using my tv or the computer. I also have to spend alot of money because he throws away my food and I have to now buy out breakfast or dinner instead of store the food in our fridge and cook.
What should I do if my college roomie is a bully?
I do not know why people are so mean. He obviously has some self esteem and adjustment issues. That however, is no excuse for his behavior.
What your room mate is doing is considered harrassment and is punishable by a court of law. It is that kind of behavior that triggered the young man at Virgina Tech and many of the shootings that have been done at the various colleges and high schools around the country. I strongly urge you to report him to your dean. Also, I encourage you to talk with a counselor at school to help you handle your feelings in a healthy productive manner.
Reply:i agree with KC, teach him a lesson, and make him see that he is no better than u are. I was teased alot as a kid, and when I stood up for myself, I scared alot of ppl. Made them afraid of me. And had shown them I wouldn't take being treated like that.
Reply:I would be SO outa there, SO fast, you'd just feel wind!
Reply:Treat him the way he treats you. Let him lose things out of the refrigerator as well. Wait till he is asleep and beat the crap out of him with the clock readio or something. Stand up to him for sure...It'll be tough for a while but he will come around sooner or later.---Remember----It is better to die fighting than to live a 1000 years in shame...
Reply:He is doing this because you are allowing it. He sees you as weak, which makes him think he is strong. Bullies are losers, and insecure, so you need to take action right away.
Go to a counselor TODAY and follow the advice they give to stop this at once. If you let him do this, you will allow anyone to cross your boundaries and your life will be miserable. Learn to be assertive, and at the time you are being passive. You can't do this alone, I would think, or you would not have let it go this far. If you want to try, tell him to stop it at once, and mean it. And every time he does something bullying, ignore it, or address it (your choice). But DON'T let it continue. You are setting yourself up in a pattern which will make you date and marry a strong woman, who will then ruin your life.
Get help. At once. This guy is a bully, and he needs help....but you get it first. And get a new roommate as soon as possible.
Reply:Stand up for yourself. If he can dish it out, he better be man enough to take it. Sounds like he's got that little man syndrome- he deserves a chuck norris roundhouse kick to the face and balls. He's a loser, don't let him get away with that ****
Reply:When he greets you with degrading names you should respond with degrading names for him in turn .
i.e.
him: "Hey geekburger"
you: "What's up genius."

At body temparature bacteria double in number every 20 minutes or so. ! hour would increase the bac-t count by about 8 times. You must have a lot of extra bacteria in your head phones.
In any case, wearing ear phones can cause you ears to produce more cerumen (ear wax) which protects you from infections and can block your ear canal and perhaps cause you to turn up your volume.

What should I do if my college roommate is a big bully?
My college roommate has picked on me because he feels that I am soft, socially inept, and fat. He always greets me with degrading names like loser, geekburger, and nerd boy. Whenenever I eat he compares me to big animals such as whales, pigs, and elephants. He also cuffs me in the head, sting my neck or ear with a rubber band, and throws water balloons at me when im using my tv or the computer. I also have to spend alot of money because he throws away my food and I have to now buy out breakfast or dinner instead of store the food in our fridge and cook.
What should I do if my college roommate is a big bully?
I don't know what school you're at so I can't give you a specific link--but one idea is to do a Google search using the term "residential life" and your school's name. That should get you to the right website to find out who is in charge of housing to file papers to make a change. Make sure they know it is because of bullying. Also, your school may have anti-harassment policies where you can file a complaint. If you're too upset to research this, go to your resident advisor, or the university health service without delay and insist on some help and backup for your problem.
Tell him strongly and firmly to keep his hands to himself because the next time he touches you or hits you with something, you are going to file a criminal complaint against him for battery. Then call the campus police and do it.
Reply:Stand up for yourself.
Don't be soft. If he hits you, defend yourself. IF you really CAN'T defend yourself, call the police and press assault charges - but be careful b/c he'll probably lie about it. you want to have irrefutable proof if possible.
Make it abundantly clear to him that he's to keep his paws OFF your things- period.
Whatever you do, don't take his sh*t. Show yourself some love.
Personally- I'd have whooped his *** the FIRST time he tried to put his hands on me. Even if I didn't win, he'd have felt me.
Reply:Seriously -- how many accounts do you have %26amp; how many times are you going to post this?
Reply:Next time he throws out your food punch him and say, "Quit ******* with my food *****". Don't warn him or else it won't have the same effect. He'll get the message. The thing with fighting is even if you can't win, fighting back is usually enough to get someone to leave you alone. Good luck
**Disclaimer: You should only fight in order to defend yourself
Reply:uuh.. is that really happening!! inform the police or something dude!! or just kick his *** someday, that;ll teach him a lesson. seriously, just go in the room someday and get him from behind and take all ur anger out on him!! AAH!! i want to eat that bastard!
