what do i want?

i want you to realize that i'm wonderful (if slightly neurotic) and i want you to miss me the way i miss you and i want you to say that you're scared but it's worth it. i'm worth it. and i want it to be true.

thank you for taking me in

"I'm afraid of feeling too much for you," I said. "People tend to fall for me faster than I fall for them. I'm afraid to hurt you," you replied. It seemed like the wrong thing for you to say. Thinking back, a lot of things seemed slightly wrong. But I'll do what I do best, and glide over the things that made me unsure, the things that made my mind overanalyze and doubt you. I will only remember the good things, the way you smiled and the way you made me feel. That perfect day we spent, full of raindrops and time travel and pomegranate seeds. I gave myself until Monday to be over this, to stop wanting to hold you close every time I saw you. But I never said which Monday...

i can do the frug

In the words of Winnie the Pooh, it's a blustery day outside. And I love it. Today the PIRG referendum begins! As does the rest of my life. I will be organized from now on. I will not internalize other people's meanness. I will remember who I am, apart from everyone else's opinion. I will learn to say no. I will remember that my friends are incredible, and have an amazing capability to make me feel safe and loved. I will only spend time with people who make me remember that I am slightly cool, and will not pay attention to the criticism of people who constantly make me feel like who I am is not good enough. And I will not lose my keys. Well, that one may take more time...
