I'm having a had time accepting he was just having a bad day. My grade is resting on his 'bad day'. My grade is up in the air because I could not handle his attitude today. A part of me wants to believe it was my fault. I went in there not wanting to go to class anyway. Then, I realize the 157 year old gym teacher was being pretty short with me from the get go. I keep carrying the weight of this morning on my shoulders. Ever since I got into the honor society, I've been freaking out over my grades, which will only make it works. I'm worried about my Outdoor Ed. grade. I wonder if he is going to hold this against me and give me a lower grade. I just keep trying to tell myself that he was just having a bad day.

I have not been doing this like I would have. Sry. Okay, here's today's list.

  • EC- I always leave in a good mood. There is so much love within that group it's unbelievable
  • hacky sac
  • friends who workout with you- If it wasn't for Nicole, I wouldn't be getting up in the morning or the evenings to go workout
  • friends who walk with you all the way to Publix even if it's cold 
  • Sleep

Photography/Art

I really don't know what to call this, but it's art/photography that I found on the internet. The unintended theme is animals.

not private enough

12:53 PM

            I absolutely love my privacy. It is hard to match how much I love being alone. I can stay in a room and live inside my mind for hours. Sounds insane, but I enjoy it. This is why college is so hard for me.

            In college there is no privacy. There somebody any and everywhere. I feel like somebody is stealing the one of the most precious things and it’s draining. Anything that I once thought or feel is something private becomes public and it upsets me so much. 

Not exactly free

12:51 PM

College has less freedom, not more. I can’t choose what I want to eat everyday. I don’t have my own car so I have to depend on the MARTA or other people. I can’t just chill and blast music in my room whenever I want to. I can’t go to sleep whenever I want to without having to put my iPod in to block noise. It’s hard to be myself when I’m surrounded by the mainstream who constantly downcasts anyone who is different especially anyone socio-economically different. I feel more caged here than I do when I’m at home.


Love,
