Aw, it'll still be here tomorrow (or today, for you)!
I'm Actually Dying of Boredom
group
lmao, G'night!
Ayo, I'm back!
group
Eyyyy!
I'm currently wearing my shiny but soft blue pants and my favorite shirt. Both of which are hand-me-downs from my parents because that's what happens when you're the oldest and really like baggy clothes.
Yeeeessss. I'm like the only one in my family that gets new clothes often, because my little sister HATES shopping with a passion, and my mom… well, she buys cool shirts and socks. I keep stealing her shirts cause she has awesome ones.
group
My parents go through their clothes every so often and just hand me a pile of clothes–my dad gives me shirts–that don't fit them anymore. I usually take the shirts, and I'll take some of my mom's pants. She's just a tad bigger than I am, so that makes it a little difficult. But they usually have some sort of string to adjust the waist.
Yeah my mom has the comfiest clothes plus I keep "borrowing" her jewelry cause she doesn't like it but she has a lot so I'm like… ehehehe MINE
group
Jewelry is a no go for me, as is makeup. I know–I'm not a true girl–but I don't give two shits. My ears don't like foreign objects touching them, I hate the feeling of stuff of my lips, rings get annoying, and so do necklaces. Bracelets are eh.
Nah fam, you can totally be a true girl without being "girly." I tried makeup for a while, but after a while it made me feel like my face was caked, which was uncomfortable, so now I just occasionally wear lipstick or if I didn't get any sleep then I'll put on a bit of concealer so I don't look like the walking dead. Most of the reason I wear rings is so I can fidget with them, and same for bracelets. Necklaces are the only things I wear just because I can.
group
I just don't really care about how I look to other people. Tbh, I feel like a potato most of the time, but I know makeup won't fix anything. I just don't have the face for makeup–or the patience. This is going to sound weird, but I fidget with my own fingers, or a pencil if I have it in my hand, or I'll run my thumb back and forth over the edge of my phone case, or I'll mess with a book page. I fidget a lot. I sometimes just…hold my wrists or tuck my hands under my legs to trick my body into thinking I'm doing something. Weird, yes, but it's what I do.
Oof yeah I feel you. I'm honestly surprised I haven't broken my mechanical pencils cause I twist them SO MUCH I just don't understand how they haven't broken yet.
group
SAAAAAMME
I have one of those pencils where the eraser is really long and twists up and down. I twist it all the time, and it's a miracle that none of them have broken. Especially considering my track record for breaking things. Side eyes the pile of stuff I've broken just by touching it
Omg mood. I just use the ones with the regular eraser, but I twist the crap out of it. I don't even understand why but I can't stop now.
group
I draw too much to use normal erasers. I need to large erasers 'cause I go through them like clockwork.
Oh yeah, that makes sense. I love using mechanical pencils for drawing cause their erasers work really well usually, but I'm always too lazy to go find the ones with an appropriate amount of eraser so then… I just have A LOT of pencils. Like, an inhuman amount of pencils. I think you can get arrested for having this many pencils.
group
lmao, I feel you. The thing is, though, I usually run out of led before I run out of eraser. So then I have to buy new pencils so I can get the small cases of led. Ah, the hard life of a doodler…
Ooh, yeah. Same. So I was planning on filling up a notebook with doodles, just any kind of drawing, painting, scribbling, but then I stopped doing it, and I was going to continue, but then I was like… ahahahahaha. Ha. I can't draw.
group
If you look at my math notebook, you'll see how bored I get. There are so many doodles of random fantasy creatures and horribly rough character sketches. I still remember the one time last year, I had math 8th period and study hall 1st period. I sat in the back and mostly doodled, but still understood the lessons and did better than all the idiots in my class–they were all a year or two older than me. My teacher wanted to talk to me after class and I was confused for a sec, then panicky. Shit, he saw me drawing. Yes, he did see me. But he didn't care. He's like–"You barely pay attention in class and are still doing better than these morons. How'd you end up in this class?" We talked for a bit and I managed to switch my math and study hall, so I got to be with my friends and have an eighth-period study hall. Win-win.
Ayy, nice. Yeah my best friend and I have Geometry together, and literally neither of us pay attention, we just sit and read until the teacher gives us our assignment, and yet we're still the first ones done with everything. One time we were doing a worksheet, and there was something on it we hadn't learned yet, and we were like, guess she wants us to figure it out, so we looked up the formula and did it ourselves. The teacher told us 20 minutes later we didn't have to do that part, but… now it's too late. I am invincible.
group
Uhhhhhhh I hate Geometry. It was fine at first, but the freaking proofs. They make me want to claw my eyeballs out
UGH I HATE PROOFS like ok I solved the equation PLEASE don't make me explain in excruciating detail.
group
I hate explaining. Especially something that's just common sense. Like, ???? How am I supposed to explain how I know something if I just know it???
Like, well you see, the purpose for me doing this is bECAUSE YOU FUCKING TOLD ME TO. And we had to use all those terms for everything, and they were all pretty much the same order like… can we just… not do that?
group
Proofs are just so dumb and time-consuming. I'd have my homework done within half an hour if I DIDN'T HAVE TO WRITE THOSE DAMN 50 STEP PROOFS
Yeah. I'm glad we finally moved past those. We're doing that graphing thing now, I forgot what it's called, but you have an equation like 2x+3y>6 and you have to turn it into y>-2/3x+2 and then graph it. It's SO MUCH BETTER than doing proofs.
group
We're on circles, since we have 9 days left of school. I'M SO HAPPY. But then I'm going to a college to basically run a fake business for a week with a bunch of people from all over the state. I'll be rooming with my friends and hours away from my parents. Wish my anxious self luck.
Omg GOOD LUCK. My friend is going to a thing a lot like that, we call it girls' state, I don't re,ember what it's actually called, but basically, it's a bunch of girls from all over the state who are separated from everyone they know and have to work together for a week to form a functioning government. I hear it's pretty cool.
group
Ours is called Pennsylvania Free Enterprise Week–except it's far from free. Even with a company sponsoring us and paying $1,500 for us to go, my mom had to pay around $300 for me to go.
(Sorry it took me so long, I got called for dinner)
Yeah, our students have to raise money to pay for their registration fee - about $150. My friend has really been stressing about it because her father refuses to pay it for her, and she can't figure out how to get the money.
group
(It's dinner already for you? It's only 2:21PM here)
Oh wow. I'm actually surprised my mom paid for it, and I'm really glad that 15 hundred is already paid for by a company.
