It's 9:20 and I have homework... but I haven't gotten around to it yet. Strange, considering I've got quite a bit of the stuff. I should have done it a long time ago... but I can't bring myself to work on anything if there's still light outside. Weird, I know.
I'm of the opinion that people should not tell you that they liked you after they've gotten over you. Am I the only one who thinks this is pretty retarded? What am I supposed to do now that I apparently have missed my chance? Some people need to just do a better job of communicating what they feel... myself included.
I'm desperately trying to change some things... such as my arrogance and self-inflated view of my own intelligence. I'm not that smart.. as evidence, just compare me to any of the people who I hang out with. I have a tendency to garner friendships with those who could squish me in a battle of IQ's. But still, I have a tendency to put down and count out good people just because I don't particularly like something about them - most of the time it's the idiotic things that come out of their mouths. I won't give a specific example, but let's just say that there's this girl who I previously thought was a total moron. All she talked about was drugs, sex, etc... to the point where I just had had enough and avoided her from then on. Today however, I talked to her again and she showed a side which I previously hadn't seen, one that was mature, driven and a little scared. We each have our own little demons we have to deal with... and while the choices we make don't always reflect our wishes to be good people, as long as you have that wish I don't think you deserve to be put down. People should forgive themselves for some things. You can't hold the mistakes that you've made in your heart forever; they only eat away at our cores and leave us empty shells of the noble people we could be.
Love is like a video rental store... if I give it to you, return it bitch.*
