You're nothing to me but baggage

Reputation Has Blunted Me

PLEASE SHUT UP AND STOP SQUEALING, PLEASE.

Oh my goodness, there is a girl in the internet lab right now SCREAMING like a girl at a boy band concert about her Valentine's Day. I want her to shut up. Like really. She has said that her boyfriend got her "heart shaped earrings AND pendant and a like, totally, like, goofy card! He's so totally funny!" It's lame enough that your boyfriend has the caveman capacity to buy you HEARTS as a representation of VALENTINE'S day, I don't want to hear about it! And for the record, I am not bitter because I had a really nice night last night. Now she is talking about how her "heart went up in her throat!" I have just recently realized that there really are a lot of shallow girls around. I think I have lucked out and always had pretty level headed girls as friends.

I have been getting headaches lately. I am attributing it largely to my lack of wearing glasses. I am supossed to wear them at school and when I drive. Instead, I wear them when i'm doing something absolutely mindless like watching TV. I almost hit people, curbs, animals on a regular basis and I never even know it's there until I have to turn the car frantically in the opposite direction. I think it's time to get over my laziness and put my glasses on my face. Even if it's only once week.

Today we watched a video about love in class. Then my professor shut it off and demanded that we recap our Valentine's day. I think it's kind of a personal thing to force your students to talk about. It reminds me of last year when the lady who rung in our groceries asked Erin what she was doing and she very dryly replied with: "getting drunk in my apartment." Either people don't want to talk about it because they don't have anyone to celebrate with or it's sexy and spicy: "Hm, I think my boyfriend and I are going to do role playing as a cross guard and student." I am tired but drank a lot of coffee. I am talking too much. Do I talk too much? I recently had S O M E O N E tell me that I "never shut up". I suppose he probably meant it in an endearing sense (yes, that's it). Anyways, I usually think of myself as kind of shy and reserved (at first anyways). What do you think?

I am going to Montreal in FOUR days!

Everything is so perfect right now. Love.

    Sar,
    I was thinking about shyness today and came to the realization that, contrary to what I have always thought, I am not shy.
    I just get nervous and quieter when I think a situation is important or out of my control.
    And when that happens I just imagine I am riding a unicorn, and I am usually able to overcome anything.

    Yea, I often get shy if i feel like I am surrounded by people who are more intelligent and hip than me. I know it sounds shallow, but it's true. Also, I get shy around people who are controversial; I don't like being verbally bombarded with political jargon. Otherwise, I think I am pretty outgoing.
