Day 169: Speak only in cliches

Day 169

Today I was supposed to only speak in clichés but I really didn’t.

I saw Mike and I came home for the weekend. Good day.

--

Today I'll be seeing Mike and going home for the weekend.
It's kind of weird when the days match up like that.

Day 168: Girls only [and RIP Steve Jobs]

Day 168

Today I need to do things only girls can do.

I wear a bra, I put my hair in a ponytail, I change my shoes three times in the day, I openly talk about sex with another girl, I read Cosmo, and I take my birth control pill.

I feel so girly yay.

Also, I had to see a concert for my music class tonight and it wasn’t really good. That’s all.

--

Steve Jobs died yesterday.
I don't know what to think about it. I'm not exactly sad.
I feel sorry for his family of course, but I didn't really care about the guy.
I'm more shaken by the idea that even those who seem like they'll last forever can just die without warning.

Day 167: Voodoo doll

Day 167

Today it’s raining, and my roommate left the window open. Perfect.

I’m supposed to use a voodoo doll to give someone positive or negative voodoo. I choose to give Mike some good luck.

And hopefully a new job.

Today sucks. Besides my roommate continually opening the window, I have to deal with preparing for a test in food science, having a test in math tonight, and rain.

It is just raining so hard.

--

I hate rain.

btw, Mike did get a new job! Two of them actually. He worked at Six Flags over the summer, and recently got a job working on fixing computers.

Day 166: Autograph

Day 166

Today I need to get a famous person to sign the book.

I don’t meet any famous people. But I do spend the day with Mike, so that’s good!

Also, Glee made me cry tonight. Like a lot of crying. Why do you do this to me, Glee?

(some other stuff did happen today—classes sucked, roommate sucked, Mike even sucked for a while [not in that way, you dirty minded people] but I don’t feel like talking about that, you know?)

--

I hate waking up so early!

Day 165: Eccentricity

Day 165

Today, I’m supposed to develop my very own eccentricity.

And you know what? No. I’m different enough as it is. I’m awesome.

I’m spending the day with Mike. That’s also awesome.

 --

Does anyone else see the underlined part there? I can't get rid of it.

Day 164: Share someone's pain

Day 164

Today, I am supposed to share someone’s pain.

Mike says I’m sharing his pain that we can’t be together today but I’m not sure that counts.

I pretty much stay in my dorm all day. I do wish I was with Mike, so I guess I’m sharing his pain. If he has pain. He isn’t really texting me.

I’m in a crappy mood today. I’m so bored and that’s making me miserable until it feels like all my doubt and guilt and misery is coming out at once and I hate life.

Wah.

I get better though. Probably I’m just pmsing.

--

I slept 6 hours last night. nothing to say.

Day 163: Shoplifting [and morality]

Day 163

Today I’m supposed to shoplift.

I don’t like this. It feels wrong.

Anyways, I’ve decided today I will be cooking all my meals. And I do. Scrambled eggs for breakfast, quesadillas for lunch. I’ll have chicken parmesan for dinner.

I’ve been experimenting with spices and making things taste good. I’m happy.

I have an interview with Delta Xi Phi today, so far the most important step of joining. I hope I do well, I certainly agonize over it long enough. I was told to wear “business casual” and I just really have nothing that works for that. Ugh.

But they tell me that I did well in the interview, and I’ll know in about an hour if I’m in. I really hope so.

I didn’t make it. But now I’m a “friend of” and I can still go to the activities. That’s fun.

I never did shoplift. I’m just not the kind of person who can, you know?

--

It's weird, I could have easily shoplifted if I wanted to, but I didn't.
I'm not the most upstanding moral person but I know what happens to the store when someone shoplifts. It's not just affecting a corporation, it does trickle down to actual people.
