jesus christ, how do people actually sit and make roadtrip playlists?
my attention span is shot.

i'm dizzy

i was bored at work today so i started researching some of the medication i've been on, ahaha. it's pretty much the exact opposite of what it healthy when you're taking medication like this, but ah well.

i found a blog literally called, "cipralex and me," which made me laugh. cipralex is the anti-depressant/anti-anxiety medication that i've been on for the past 3 years. in those three years, i have been on the 10mg, then the 20mg, then the 30mg dose, and now i'm back down to 20mg. one of the things that really pissed me off about that blog was that the writer claimed to be on the 20mg dose, "the highest dose there is". uh, no, actually, you ignorant twat.

i don't know why it got me so mad but i'm legitimately pissed off. i mean to each his own, but it's frustrating to find out that there are stupid people like that giving the medication and its users a bad name by simply NOT KNOWING THEIR SHIT.

whatever. whatever. whatever.

i need to stop googling this shit, ahahaha.

thursday

can i please think about something else now?

last night i pounded out three 800-word critiques for my sociology correspondence course. the first two were exactly 800 words and the third was like 732 or something. it was also pretty bad in quality i think, but it was 1am and i was tired and i had to get up in 6 hours, so it'll have to do.

11 days.

tonight i'll write my sociology midterm and try to at least start on my 5 psychology assignments. we'll see how that goes.
i haven't done any reading at all for that course, so hopefully i can at least mostly bullshit it.
argh.

i feel like this year, once i'm actually back at school, i might have a better handle on my schoolwork. i know how to study now, and it's just a matter of timing. i know how to sit down and get work done and now that i've figured it out, i actually enjoy it for the most part.
it's the stress that i hate, and all i need to do is avoid it.
i know how. i just have to DO it.

hm.

i'm going blonder this weekend and hopefully talking out the last four weeks and figuring out whether i think it was a waste of time now, or whether i'll think that in a few more weeks. i don't even know.

i know i've never felt this way about someone else before, but i also know that i've felt this way about myself before and i'm not sure that it's worth it. then again, this is how i always feel until i see them in person.

damn it, here i go again.

i just spent $300 online at forever21 and urban outfitters. i hate spending money at those places because i know it's all cheap, trendy, mass-produced shit and i could get way better quality at a way better price (not to mention better selection, style and originality) if i got my ass downtown, but it doesn't look like i'll have time to visit toronto this summer.

next summer i definitely want to be able to have time off.
we'll see.

oh and also, because i don't really have much to do at work right now:

... yep.

i'm stupid

i miss you.

(i want to see you but if i can't do that
i at least want to be able to talk to you.)

too many exclamation points

"rinsing grease from the kitchen sink,
giving you some time to think,
hoping it won't give you time to leave.

paint my nails and paint my face,
hide my nerves and my disgrace.
finding words i hope you might believe."

300

"i need to think about it."

yeah, so did i.
and i've thought about it, and i've realized
that you're just putting off telling me no,
and i'm just putting off hearing it.

i think we should just stop.

we should never have started.

broken nails

i don't want to have to do anything ever again.

is that allowed?

fuckpiece

if any fucking guys approach me for sex this year i am legitimately going to fucking castrate them.

so sick of this shit.

waterfall

i can't believe i thought that anything would be different and that i would be worth it this time just because he wasn't an asshole like the rest of them when i've known the whole time that it has nothing to do with them when i'm the common factor and i'm the repeat offender and i'm the fucking problem and i can't believe i let myself feel safe when i should have known what was coming the way i knew it all the other times even if i did fall right into the trap anyway because at least back then i was ready and i wasn't completely stupefied and humiliated and fucking devastated.

i'm so tired of being a fucking idiot.

i really do want to die.

i wish none of this had happened at all.
i fucking hate him and i know, i know i don't.

i can't stop crying.

what a fucking joke. as if i'd ever be worth the trouble.
such a solitary suicide, my life is,
and i'm taking my sweet fucking time.

don't look back

at this crumbling fool.

shitty

"a thousand miles away,
an hour's change in time.
i can't promise you today
if when i leave you draw the line.

i need more than just a taste
of what i know i'll never be.
i don't have the time to waste
pretending you and me

have what it takes to make it real,
what it takes to make it right.
what it takes to make me feel
like i'm safe alone at night.

what it takes to make it last
when we're incredibly apart.
when i know i'm falling fast,
and i'll have to catch my heart.

i guess it's too early for love,
and it's still too late."

lash

if there is a god then i guess at least i'm not as fucking alone as i thought,
but if there is a god then why is he such a fucking asshole? or is he just another one of the same shit.

i fucking give up, i don't give a fuck.
i'm fucking tired.

is goodnight forever an option?

"shame on me.
falling in too deeply.
a pretty little fuckpiece, silly little fool
is all i'll be.

shame on me,
how did i still not see?
i knew it was a repeat, naive little tool
i gave for free.

i'm sorry, i'm sorry,
i'm always so sorry,
but who have i got to blame?

i'm sorry, i'm sorry,
i'm always so sorry,
but in the end it's all the same.

i'm never worth the trouble, the try.
just rinse and repeat with a new fucking guy,
who can fuck me and use me and kiss me and bruise me
and leave me alone to cry.

shame on me.
shame on me.
shame on me.
shame on me."

him who?

"i won't promise you forever,
i just want to be alone together.
kiss me now,
show me how
you'd love someone."

the chorus to a song that i'll probably never write.
