I'm not nearly as suave and composed as I seem online. It's actually really hilarious to me when people take the things I say seriously. I'm rarely ever serious, and when I'm being serious, it's generally because I'm pissed off. And even then, I tend to adopt the overly bitchy sarcastic tone. It works well for me. I am scared shitless that I'm not going to get into college simply because I am so lazy that I still haven't applied anywhere. I want to go to the University of Iowa, but we'll see. I don't like to deal with the biggest problems that I face. I like to pretend that they don't exist and just procrastinate until the end of time. Unfortunately, it all catches up with me eventually. I don't deal well with compliments. Everyone always tells me that I'm pretty and talented and whatnot, but the truth is that I don't see it. I see the insecure, unmovitated, awkward girl who still hasn't applied to college. I don't have a 4.0, and I'm pissed off that my school doesn't weight grades. I don't like being put on a pedastle. I don't want to date someone who thinks I'm lesser or greater than him, I want to be an equal. I want to be respected but not revered. I want to be challenged but not trampled. I've been single for over ten months and I don't really care. I was desperate for a while but then I just became so used to not depending on someone else's approval of me that I realised that I don't need a boyfriend. I like this guy who was in my econ class last semester, Dan the Mountain Man. He has that scruffy bad boy look going on and he's way too charismatic for either of our goods. He tries to fit in with the other stupid boys but I can tell that he's smarter than that. For about ever 500 pictures I take of myself, I only like 1. I don't think I'm very photogenic. Take my senior pictures for example, out of a 24 exposure roll, I only sort of liked one. And I don't even like that one very much. I tolerate it more than anything. Don't take anything for granted and never take yourself seriously. The teacher can make or break the class. Live performances can make me love or hate a band. I love discovering new music. I love Fall Out Boy, Panic! at the Disco, Motion City Soundtrack, and Mae, just to cut it down to four. I listen to all sorts of music, but mostly just rock. I have a love/hate relationship with Nalgene water bottles. They help me keep myself hydrated, but water gets caught in the threads of the lid and then it drips all over me when I drink and it looks like I drooled all over myself. Not that I don't drool on myself, because I definitely developed that habit when I got braces and still haven't gotten rid of it even now that they're gone. Granted, I don't just drip saliva all over myself all the time, but it still isn't a very graceful thing when it happens. I dance 6 hours every week and I'm still the most clumsy person I know. I bought myself an unabridged spanish-english dictionary for Christmas. I love looking at the stars and astronomy in general. I hate bad drivers. Most women are sucky drivers and I really hope that I am not one of them. Teenage boys like to break hearts. Especially mine.
