I feel exploited by the people around me sometimes.

I always feel like people should feel the same toward me as I do toward them. Thus, sometimes, in my fits of I don't even know what, I end up being super nice to them. This just ends up making me feel like shit. Yeah. I'm not even sure why I do it sometimes.

I just want people to like me as much as I like them. I'm not even talking about romantically. I'm talking about in general.

Friendship is so fickle. Life is so fickle.

To quote Lady Gaga, I'm caught in a bad romance.

In other news, I'm still oscillating between yes and no. I remind myself that it should be no, but sometimes, I wonder if I'm thinking straight when I feel like it should be yes.

I'm a confused person. Yup.

The BAC show yesterday was great though. In all honesty.

Poll #1485641 Me.
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 1

Am I interesting??

Katherine McPhee's song doesn't really match up with my current situation, but there are certain lines that I can relate to.

I'm making progress (with life, that is).  Fall break was good for me, as it helped me to reevaluate where I am with a lot of different things in my life.  Especially with respect to life here in college.

I'm over a lot of things.  I think I'm over the me that I was before break.  The one that was unable to let go of things.  I'm glad that I've moved on.  One of my former hopes was that he'd realize his feelings for me before I stopped harbouring feelings for him.  I mean clearly that's not going to happen now, but I feel like I should write a song about this.  Unfortunately, I'm not poetic, so I can't really.  =S   If I do though, it'd be something silly like "Fall in love with me before I fall out of love with you".  Oh I'm so creative.  Clearly.

I've also let go of a lot of reservations.  I like the me I am right now, at least at this moment, but I feel like people change with the times.  I do too, clearly, so will I still like myself tomorrow? I don't know at this point.  I sure hope so.

Back when I had a thing for Sean Hayes I had imagined potential situations in the future where I'd casually convey to him my former impressions toward him.  I mean it seems kind of silly now, but I feel like it'd just take a load off my shoulders.

Problem sets + midterm basically overwhelm my life right now.  I just wish my mum wasn't upset with me.  I really don't like it when I'm in a fight or some sort of argument with people.  I wish everything could just be hunky-dory and that it'd all be ok.  It's a very Yoh Asakura mindset.

I really want to write more for this entry, but I can't seem to focus on the screen.  In all actuality, I should do the orf problem set, but what am I doing?  Watching 30 Rock on Hulu and posting here.  It amuses me that I never really used to relate to songs or anything and judged music based on how it sounded rather than the lyrics.  I think this is because I find it a lot easier to remember the tune rather than the words to a song. 

Got my guitar today, didn't really play.  I learned some chords, hopefully I don't forget them.

Sleeptime now, its 1:30 and I should just get up earlier to do this pset.  Wish me luck, interwebs?

I feel like that's pretty much all that I'm feeling right now. 

I finished the third story in my short story collection.

I'm so excited about this, you have no idea.

I'm super happy.

It's such a sad love story and yes, they don't end up together.

If someone you loved told you that you were like a sibling to them.  How would you feel?  Can you blame her for not understanding?  It's super sad, but such a good story.  I'm super excited.

I should be doing a problem set right now.  Actually scratch that.  Multiple problem sets.

 Sometimes I wonder if we could go back to the past.  I'd definitely redo some of the things I've done.

A good conversation with a person can not be replicated.  

People fall apart, I'm aware, but I still feel like something is missing in my life.

I was so motivated back then.  Nadia calls it the brand new old me.  I think I've gotten over it though.  20 is an interesting age for me.

I'm no longer a teenager and I can't use the reasoning I had in the past to keep on going.  

I just really miss the summer.  I miss bonding with friends, as school feels like a giant wedge. 
I just want the pieces of what had been a good thing to go back and become what it had been before.

Is that strange?

I'm currently being isolated for the flu.  The doctors are not sure if its H1N1, but regardless they've isolated me.  I've been relegated to resting in my room and eating whatever the kindness of others inspires them to bring to me.

I love my friends.  I think its the bad things in life that show how kind people truly are.  I love everyone.  I appreciate it all.

I haven't finished any of the food that they've brought though.  I suppose its because I'm super sick and I don't feel quite as up to it as I had hoped to be.

Anyway, here's a log of what happened since yesterday.

1. Woke up at 5 am, checked my temperate (101.4) and then drank some water.
2. Threw up the aforementioned water.
3. Went back to bed. 
4. Woke up at 7:40, felt like crap.  Took my temperature and drank some Theraflu.  Called McCosh but realized they were closed until 8:40.
5. Went back to bed.
6. Woke up intermittently, finally reached McCosh at 8:50.  The nurse lady said she'd call me back soon.
7. Called my parents. Told them I was sick and then went back to sleep.
8.  Woke up at around 11:30 due to call from McCosh.  The doctor sounded like a man and she told me that they'd treat my case as the flu.  She also told me I'd get better in about 3 days. 
9. Emailed the DSL, was told to send roommates to get a flukit.
10. N called, picked up the flu kit and goes to lunch. Felt very grateful toward N.
11. A sends me lunch. Felt very grateful toward A.
12. Ate 3 curly fries. Went back to bed.
13. Time passed. Roommates returned.  
14. A came and brought me oranges and a lot of low calorie vitamin water (orange-orange).  Felt extremely grateful again.
15. Talked to roommates until 6:15 when they went to dinner. I went to bed.
16. CF brought me dinner. Felt extremely grateful. 
17. Had temperate of 102.5.  Panicked. Took meds at 8:40.
18. CF bought me nyquil which I waited until 12:30 to take.  Felt extremely grateful.
19. T brought me a cupcake. It was very nice of him.  Felt extremely grateful.
20. Whined about not being able to go to the career fair.  Still kind of down in the dumps about it.
21. Showered and went to bed.

Today I woke up with a sore throat, no voice and a lot of phlegm in my throat.  My fever has been reduced to 100.0. Win!  Hopefully I'll be alive tomorrow!

 I cried again tonight.  I really hate myself for being weak.  I despise it so thoroughly that I cannot express how much I'd like to wring it out of every single cell in my body.

However, I learned something tonight.  And I'll never cry for that reason again.  I'll never cry for you.

I think it's all ok now.  All my problems have been amicably resolved. =)

I've been having a great day, you see. =D

Honestly, I do.  Looking back at old entries, I am just filled with disgust and loathing for the person that I had been before. =( 

 I've been thinking recently.  Not the usual thoughts of 'What's for dinner?' or 'Where are my keys?', but rather about what my life has settled to be so far.  It's somewhat interesting for me to think about what has gone on with my life.  I've been slacking (if you will), from the supposed work that I have to complete and have found the great OpenCourseWare sites of lovely schools.

 I'm not sure what to feel.  I just have this deep loneliness within my soul and I'm bored. :( I wish I didn't need other people to survive, but I guess if I was the ONLY person in the world that it would be too lonely. I don't understand what I'm supposed to be looking for sometimes.

Honestly. I don't.  All I know is that God is the only one that I can turn to in my times of need.  Lord, I love you, so please just watch over me.  I realize that it seems like I'm trading my love for protection, but that's not what it's supposed to be.  I love the Lord because he loves me so much that he would give up his son for me.  I'm eternally grateful.

I find ORF 309 absolutely fascinating. ABSOLUTELY. It's ridiculously interesting. :D


It took too long for you to call back, and normally I would just forget that.

I wish I had a glimpse of what I'll be like in 20 years. Honestly.

I think I agree with nadia, there's definitely something going on with Adrian and Rachel. Which is interesting for me to see, for sure, since they're both good friends of mine. I like both of them a lot. :D

However, I have to say that Mr. A is definitely a very popular boy. He has so many female admirers who just flock to him, surprisingly, since I'm pretty sure that he doesn't like lead them on or anything. ODDLY enough. Perhaps he just has the pheromones to draw them in????

I'm rather confused.

However, we just watched 3 episodes of 24 right now and it was amazing. I think we're going to have a sleepover, which is basically what it sounds like. Rachel, me and ADRIAN. It's going to be great! It'll be so much fun and all. :D

Well, let's just hope that it doesn't get taken the wrong way or anything, you know what I mean.

I honestly hope that something good happens to both of them. However, I also hope that I'll be able to find a significant other sometime soon, as I reallllllllllly want a boyfriend. X is nice (sometimes), but I think he's using me, which isn't something that you want to build a long-term relationship on.

I wish that I would be able to find the one for me, you know, its very Chobits like, but I mean, I honestly believe/hope that God did not intend for me to be alone forever since I am so afraid of not being around other people. Perhaps I can figure something out? I'm not sure, but really, I'd like to find someone who enjoys spending as much time with me as I do with him. It's going to be a long road (perhaps, although I feel like I just wanted to use that banal statement), but I do believe that there is a Prince Charming for me, waiting (hopefully not on a white horse) for me. =D

He's so much like him that's its unreal.
He reminds me of him.

I hope this time it doesn't end up like what happened last time, when I watched him go away with another.
I hope it doesn't turn into a repeat of last time, when he and I became enemies.

I hope that he's happy, at least.
My arm is hurt.

I'm somewhat upset today. Perhaps its just the way life is.

So after being unceremoniously ditched by noob for lunch, I decided to write a list of things that I want to confess to the world.

1. I really regret not staying in Charter or joining Colonial, but now I'm in a situation that I cannot change.
2. I wish that I didn't draw into a quad with the girls next year.
3. I wish that I didn't come here sometimes.
4. I wish that I'm not flaky.
5. I can't deal with failure or rejection very well.
6. I run away from my problems.
7. I avoid people when I don't want to confront them or when I'm mad at them.
8. I think that I'm really fat sometimes, and it makes me feel disgusted.
9. I don't like myself that much, honestly.
10. I really love my family and my parents.
11. I think that the angry boy down the hall is kind of cute, but that doesn't mean anything.
12. I sometimes secretly hope that Algeria from SOMA will come and then I can see his face again to recall how he looked.
13. I am really afraid of being alone.
14. In conjunction with the above statement, I'm really afraid of not finding the one meant for me.
15. I am afraid that I either will: a) not get married or b) get married to someone I don't like.
16. I wonder sometimes if there's something fundamentally unlikeable about me.
17. I regret things a lot.
18. I don't like dwelling on those regrets though.

20. I wish that I worked harder in high school and thus here too.
21. I think P likes me, but I'm afraid of that, because that would make it awkward.
22. I wish that friendship is platonic.
23. I don't like anyone right now, surprisingly.
24. The longest time I liked someone was 3 years and it was a horrible experience.
25. I put on a loud boisterous personality that I now cannot distinguish between my real one because I'm afraid of being bullied and outcast like I was when I was in 6th grade.
26. Sometimes I wonder if there's a purpose to life.
27. I wish people didn't dislike me.
28. I wish I'll stop judging people when I first meet them.
29. I'm really upset about not being able to go to PII.
30. I told people it was about visa issues, but it was more about money than about visa issues.
31. I wish that I wasn't poor, but its not something that I'm upset about since its something I cannot change.
