(no subject)
I just painted my nails lime green. They now match the colour of my bedroom walls.
Upon discussion, I realized today that I will actually have to make new friends next year. I'm not too sure how that's going to work out. I'm fine with making acquaintances at parties, or friends whose taste in music I'll share but whose thoughts I'll never really know. Making good friends just isn't something I naturally do well. This is essentially my fault, but I'm not really sure how to go about fixing it. I'm not a very open person in general, and it's rare that I'll pour myself out to friends, let alone people I barely know. I guess this makes me come off as uninviting to most. I also feel like I bore people - they might think I'm interesting at first, but after a short amount of time they'll realize that there are others they'd much rather hang out with. Ok, now I will end this little bit of self-pity, seeing how I complain when others do this so I'd rather not turn into what I dislike the most.
I really want to travel somewhere right now, and seem to be overcome with a feeling of wanderlust (oh god, I feel pretentious just using that word). I don't know why, but recently I've become so fascinated by latin american history and culture. I would love to go to Peru or to Chile for a year. India is still at the top of my list of places to see; I also really want to visit Turkey, Thailand, Tanzania, Egypt, Morocco, Cyprus...really, I will go anywhere.
In other news, I kinda just want to meet a nice boy to have fun with.
