Guys in suits
I suppose I’ll reiterate what I posted a while ago and what everybody else has been saying, OMFG GUYS YOU LOOK SO GOOD IN SUITS. Like, between Mr. Warrior and DECA, ChanAn and I have been ogling like crazy. AHH. SUITS SUITS SUITS. AHHH.
Two weeks to go :O I’m so happy ~ two weeks is so much sooner than the five weeks it used to be. We need to make these two weeks fly by, though. FLY.
...
TGIF
SERIOUSLY.
good day good day?
AHHHHHHHHHHHH ok to start things off I didn’t realize it was a late start today. So that was a welcome surprise. Then my stomach was hurting for most of the day :( and I went home during 3rd block/A lunch and my mom came and we got some medicine from the pharmacy which will hopefully help this whole iron problem in the future. bleh. AAAANYWAY, came back for stats, and then hung around after...
side effects of how things have been
general giddiness
a strange swooping sensation in my stomach
odd inclinations to walk home from work
postage research
less sleep, but later sleep.
weird urges to hop buses that go far away
laughter happening more often
In other news, I actually called my dad today. (ChanAn, I said I didn’t want to, but I lied.) I really did want to talk to him. I think I might actually miss him...
LAUGHING
is what chanan and i did until we cried and ms. williams got mad at us for being so loud.
dreams
mine have been so vivid lately, but so wonderful. the best dreams. i feel so happy.
new jobs?
i applied to work at thundercloud today. i also went to the flower shop across 620 and it looks like they’ll hire me, at least for valentine’s day weekend. i think that’s a good thing, though something might make working that weekend less wonderful. i hope they’ll hire me for saturdays weekly, at least…
coworkers
i’m pretty sure that it’s my coworker chris’s goal to make me cry. i can’t understand why else he’d treat me the way he does. yesterday he was so blatantly and outright nasty to me, and i didn’t do anything to deserve it…i really really really don’t understand why he treats me that way. a phone call after work made me feel better, but he actually...
relaxing weekend
found a friend in the neighborhood. it feels good. aryeh and i walked around with him for hours last night. i woke up early this morning to volunteer (helped clean up a park?) and then worked for the haiti project. i felt very…good to the world today. and i wore my CAMP shirt which made me feel very confident in myself, i suppose. i keep daydreaming, is my problem. i didn’t do any work...
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
good friends
I spent a lot of time with my friend Rachel from middle school last night! She’s one of my best friends, so it was good to just sit there with her and watch her sew for theater and tell her about things I felt like telling her. I love that. I love having good friends…
my family
why it sucks to go to my dad’s on the weekend:
1. he doesn’t have a car. which means we can’t get anywhere.
2. he lives pretty far away from north Austin, where all my friends are.
3. it’s a way for my mom to dump us off an “take a break,” because we’re such a burden to her, apparently
4. i hate the cold. it’s cold there.
5. air mattress....
"Y'all"
I used to feel superior to people who said the word “y’all.” I would always think when I heard it that it’s not a word. People should think more about the words they use. But then, as I grew through high school and met more people with different backgrounds, I came to have less of a superiority complex and more patience for the use of the word. I guess I still thought...
good i'm going to the doctor today
i woke up to that awful drip drip drip feeling.
I dreamed last night that Jeff Ochoa and I were in Israel and impulsively decided to get birth control, but it was super high-tech birth control with some sort of implant, which was only done in Israel. So there were these conveyor belts for the girls to lay on and I was really worried that it would hurt a lot, because I was last and I’d heard some screaming before. The got my ID by scanning...
“Do you have a period?”

wah wee woo
today was good, but i was really tired all day, even though i slept a lot last night. i’ve been really tired in general lately, just falling asleep in my classes…even when i’m with other people i’ll be animated and lively but inside i’m still falling asleep. not a great feeling. mehhh :\ it could be health, apathy, or maybe i’m just not getting enough sleep....
Driving
youngjuan:
I hit 60 in a 30 mph zone today.
This is not a good sign. I’m getting way too impulsive in the car. I’ve gotten in the habit of going 5-10 mph above the speed limit and I think I’ve been getting more aggressive. It’s really a miracle I haven’t crashed yet, considering how many close misses I’ve had.
I need to take back control over my emotions.
Dear Tim,
I don’t think that...
:D
happy stuff. melissa you know don’t you.
oh and also a real post
Hi, tumblr. IT IS SO COLD. Like, the teens. And I don’t remember it ever ever being this cold for this long here. SOME people (CHANAN) refuse to wear jackets when they KNOW it’s gonna be cold out. THIS HURTS ME.
My week’s been interesting. On Monday I went for Thai food with my CAMP friends. Well, it was gonna be my camp friends. It wound up just being two - Emma and Amulya. But...
I JUST SLEPT SO MUCH
like, 12 hours. ahhhhh and i wasn’t even sleep deprived or anything.
I LOVE MY FRIENDS.
Today: I threw a tantrum in the morning. Didn’t want to go to class. Chinese was boring. Econ was boring. English was boring. Except I wrote about how Andrew Nguyen woke up one morning as a giraffe. And then became an elephant. And moved to Africa. And realized the food was better in the US, so moved back to Austin.
Off/after school was awesome. Quartet practice. Woooo. I think we were...
Losing my voice
nivekuk:
Some of the people’s lack of knowledge of the game baffled me. Not going to lie, I feel quite sad.
sor-RYYY, Kevin. I get it kind of now though. Coolbeans.
Thanks for having us all over, Grace. that was really fun. you’re really fun to watch with.
WOW RRISD
Early symptoms of hypothermia can include:

Poor judgment
Mild unsteadiness in balance or walking
Slurred speech
Numb hands and fingers and difficulty performing tasks
^^OMG OMG I’M COMING DOWN WITH SOMETHING
a difference!
i haven’t been posting to tumblr lately the same way I used to. I just don’t feel like sharing things, really, and when I want to share I pick a friend or two and just let it out. thank you chanan for listening to my boring repetitive words. meh.
today was nice. i can’t really remember today. i stayed out late last night, so i was kind of tired most of the day. chinese was...
this break and some opinions.
i suppose this can relate to tim’s post about how sleep is the death of a personality, because of how much we can change day-to-day. this break changed me. i know how, but most people won’t know or notice. but it happened.
opinions:
BROCCOLI. ok. dude. chanan. i have never in my life met somebody who likes the STALKS better than the top. it makes no sense. if you like the tops of...
OMG
I CAN’T WAIT TO GET OUT OF THIS HOUSE
I can hope that some day I’ll meet someone who understands and knows me as well as Abby does, but honestly I don’t think I ever will. Maybe it’s because I’ve known her my whole life, but her perspective on everything is so honest. I trust her in a way that can only be built from knowing one another so long.
blood!!!
they now know what’s up! von willebrand’s disorder, it’s this clotting issue that’s been messing with my bloods. but it’s good we know now, because maybe now we can fix it? i got a good doctor. :D
we're so old!
abby and my birthdays are 10 days apart, so we both are very recently 18. so, we’re going clubbing tonight :O so exciting! our bus to 6th street leaves in like half an hour.
to fix my problem
problem: i’m losing touch with my faith. I don’t have the drive to go to synagogue and i’m forgetting my hebrew. i’m beginning to feel more and more alienated from my culture.
solution: new synagogue. i think i’m going to start going to synagogue at the religious service weekly. it’s more intense. less fluff. fewer words. more prayer, praise, community. i think...
