This weekend's been a mix of boring and productive.

I've recently realized that I've been putting certain people on pedestals, which is odd for me, because while I'm optimistic, I'm also realistic about my expectations of humanity. And so when these people fail my expectations, I try and brush it off like they've had a bad day, only to realize that they're simply not the people I try and make them.
I have a first and possibly second impression of them, and then try and make it so those impressions don't change. I've realized I'm trying to limit my impressions of people to what I initially thought of them.
I'm not sure why. Perhaps it's because there's so much changing around me already (basically the entire world) that I want something to stay static, so I force a personality on someone, not realizing that they themselves are part of that changing world.
Hmm.

emotions, revelation, disappointment
