I'm doing 38 things
seems like whatever i do random people have an opinion about it. if i am too friendly, i’m an attention whore, if i act cold, i’m a bitch who thinks she is superior to those around her. i make a real effort to treat those around me with kindness (be kind for everyone you meet is fighting a battle, plato) and respect but it seems whatever i do, someone i don’t even know that well will have a comment about it especially girls! i wish i wouldn’t let random editorials get to me so much. someone will say something and i’ll feel crushed, almost suffocatingly so. therefore, i’m resolving to take criticism better. i will listen to the criticism, decide whether there is a change i can make and, most importantly, whether there is a change i am willing to make while taking into consideration the source. if there isn’t really anything to be done, i’ll just let it go!

it’s a such a useless feeling. lately i’ve been off balance and i think that has contributed to my feelings of inadequacy. i’m going to try to get more in balance. then hopefully i’ll be able to cross this one off again!

i used to watch his show late at night when my boyfriend in high school fell asleep. i’d stay awake restless deep into the night. that is now four years ago and i guess my interest has just worn off. i wouldn’t mind meeting him but there a gaggle of other people i’d much rather spend some time with these days.
