I'm an English Literature student living in Washington State.
I like books and tea and recycling and banjo music and being sarcastic.

so while there’s really no lost love between the Biebs and I, I really do like his hair now.

Avatar the Last Airbender Drinking Game
My friend Josh made up a drinking game for ATLA.
Drink every time:
- Zuko mentions honor
- Katara is a preachy bitch
- Aang does something childish
- Sokka gets his boomerang back
- Toff mentions blindness
- Iroh mentions tea
- anybody says “spirits” or “moon”

“women’s issues”
If your girlfriend recently broke up with you, perhaps you should refer back to this chart to figure out if you share any of these thoughts, because that might be a clue as to the cause.
my brain works in weird ways
if you are mad at me, and have good reason to be, you hold quite literally all the power in our dynamic at that point.
Because until you forgive me, I will torture myself with self-loathing and deprecation until you don’t even need to lecture me, because there is nothing you could say that is worse than what I’ve already told myself.
I crave forgiveness in a way that borders on the unhealthy. If I do something wrong, apologize and you wait to forgive me, there is very little that I won’t do to try and “win” that forgiveness back. Holding my own guilt over my head is the most effective form of torture for my personality.
and odds are, even after you have forgiven me, I haven’t quite forgiven myself, and these little pangs of guilt will still hit me for weeks, potentially months (and I will not rule out years) to come.
Maybe it’s because I like having a firm sense of control over my relationships with other people, and when someone needs to forgive me for something, I have literally no control over the future of our friendship/relationship/whatever. that creates a lot of anxiety within me and forces me to confront the fact that there are a lot of things in this world that I can’t control; way more than I’d like to think about, quite honestly.
All I have really taken from this is that I am not above begging for forgiveness. I have no shortage of sins, but in this instance, pride is not one of them.
also
5 hour lectures on Hell tend to leave one feeling a bit discouraged, so I am definitely not doing homework.
this time last year
you could expect me to be awake for another three hours, at least [it’s 10:30 here in Pacific Time]
now, it is literally a huge struggle to stay awake.
I’m getting old. ):
