Hometown, gift exchanges, sugar cookies, old friends, watching movies, high school, favorite teacher and nightmares.

I'll be attending Sonia's ([info]mamelodie's friend) graduation tomorrow. Sweet! Maybe afterwards, I'll go shopping and finally pick out the rest of everyone's gifts.

Writer's Block: Honesty is such a lonely word

Do you think honesty is really the best policy when it comes to relationships? Is total honesty possible, let alone desirable?

lately i have been trying to be truly honest with people about how i feel about them or how they make me feel about something. i used to never be like that - i was always very guarded and evasive and would blatantly lie to people just to have them like me better. i used to not want to know if someone didn't like me. i think i've done a lot to change that...idk i've been working on being more honest with myself and with other people and telling them exactly how i feel or how i think they're reacting to a situation and why.

i think that it's better to be honest with people. i mean obviously if they look fat you have to be like OMG NO YOU LOOK GREAT OMG - but other things. more important things. i always try to be honest, i'll even go so far as to hurt someone's feelings a little if i think it will help them - not too much though, hopefully. i care about my real life relationships very much.

rage lol.

because i went to an all girls boarding school for four years i guess i forgot that some people still begrudge certain girls for being put together and - OH GOD NO! - intelligent. i'm sorry that i can get by in your class with minimal effort and still make more informed comments than half the people in the room and that you may or may not be intimidated by a girl who is not a complete jizz rag retard.

the truth is that i enjoy knowing information about a broad range of topics for purely narcissistic reasons. i like being able to understand things. i hate feeling confused or stupid, so i make a substantial effort to make sure that doesn't happen. BUT I SWEAR TO GOD IF ANYONE EVER FUCKING DISRESPECTS ME FOR SPEAKING UP IN CLASS OR TALKS DOWN TO ME BECAUSE I AM A GIRL I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL RIP YOU NO LESS THAN SEVEN NEW ASSHOLES.

i don't think i'm out of line for being flabbergasted because a professor
1) refuses to read over my paper drafts
2) dodges every request i have made for any bit of help
3) speaks condescendingly towards me
4) YELLS AT ME IN CLASS AND SAYS HE WILL BE DOCKING MY PARTICIPATION GRADE BECAUSE I MADE ONE OFFHAND COMMENT ABOUT FUCKING THETANS.

THETANS ARE FUNNY. SCIENTOLOGY IS FUNNY. IF WE ARE HAVING A DISCUSSION (OR AS MUCH "DISCUSSION" AS YOU ALLOW) ABOUT SCIENTOLOGY IT IS NOT OUT OF LINE TO SAY "MY THETAN LEVELS ARE OFF THE CHARTS TODAY". YOU CAN SUCK ME AND ALL MY THETANS' DICKS!

i love this song and i especially love how (in my opinion lol) there's a slight michael jackson moment around 3:48.


sooooo i guess i don't update my journal that much. i haven't really been up to to many things. i got a new job working for abercrombie and fitch. basically my position is the person who stands in the front of the store looking disinterested and then is like "hey, how's it going?" when you walk in. that's word for word what they told me i have to do. i applied for the job on a whim, and because i find their company dynamics hilarious. they completely capitalize on people's insecurities and desire to be considered "cool", and the brand is so blatantly racist and classist and they're not even a "luxury" brand. it's in the danbury mall for god's sake. anyway i thought it was hilarious. there are so many more hilarious regulations that they told me when i was hired, it was hard for me to keep a straight face, but i'm excited about it in my own way.

ummmmm what else. i almost died in an explosion the other day. well not really, but if i had been standing maybe 75 feet from where i actually was, then i would have been dead. one of the electrical transformers at the white plains train station completely malfunctioned and blew up, the power lines snapped etc etc. it was kind of weird. the train came like 30 seconds later so i guess it didn't mess up any of the train signals or....idek i'm not a mass transit master.

on a different note i was really confused/amused/idk? by all the anons yesterday saying that my voice is nothing like what they assumed it would sound like. i mean i'm used to it because i talk to myself all the time but - yeah. i'm not sure why but i found it strange. i have a low voice and a slight new york/ct accent. i pronounce water like "wudder" - which is the true testament to a ny area accent i feel like.

i really don't have a lot to say which is why i'm talking about a lot of things at once but without having any actual thoughts to offer on anything.

are any of you guys done with school yet? (not mary because i dont care about your life)
any plans for the break? i want to re-watch all of planet earth and all of the pride and prejudice miniseries while i'm on vacation. i have off for all of january so really i could, theoretically, do anything.


EDIT: and to make this more fun, if you want, i'm gonna turn off IP logging and you can ask me whatever kind of question you want. or something. literally anything! well maybe not anything....lol.

I used to be great in math. I'm not anymore.

Yesterday, I took my multivariable calculus exam. It was terrible. I mean, truly horrendous; I bet if I count up all the points I earned, I would make a 10/100. The room was small too, so if you were unfortunate enough, you were seated directly next to someone instead of an empty seat between you and the next person. Of course, I was unlucky. The girl beside me made so many distractions. First, she wants to stuff her coat into her backpack; then ruffle through her papers, nudge me a few times and leave for the bathroom. Damn, I sure do love taking exams. As for the actual test, I couldn't for the life of me figure out what to do. I read all the questions before starting (tradition) and instantly wanted to start crying. Professor Rodin stated that if she didn't see your I.D. to initial your paper, she wouldn't grade it. When I turned in my paper, I was shuffling through my bag to take out my I.D. and she smiled, initialed my paper and said "don't worry about it." a) Fuck. I didn't have to show her my I.D. b) FUCK! To now know she recognizes my face is so embarrassing, because I know I fucking failed that final. Two steps out of the classroom, and I started crying. The last time I cried about my grades was in high school when I made my first B.

stress, stress and more stress.

Two finals down, two more to go. I feel so unprepared for my multivariable calculus exam tomorrow. I wish I could just go to the movie theater and watch The Princess and the Frog already.
