So I look up my pyschology mark online just now, and guess what... i passed, except i didn't, because they think I didn't finish my five research participation credits that are a requirement for this stupid course, when I DID finish them and have fucking proof of it too. Stupid people, so now my mark is currently dropped down by 10% because of ( Read more... )

I feel overlooked, was I really mean? I'm sorry anonymous April 26 2004, 18:46:51 UTC

Umm ok well it says Anonymous, but that's cause I don't have a livejournal thingy but umm.. hey it's Kristin! I feel badly for you that you feel no one cares. That must feel awful and I can't even pretend to comprehend. I'm sorry we weren't better friends this year, I don't know much about you but I have no reason to not like you. I can't help but feel overlooked though in your all too negative view of this floor. It's true, we never hung out and rarely talked but I feel like I should tell another side of this story. I know you guys think or ok feel like we alienated you, but it's not like you didn't help. As the 2 themed music floors in Deli, we eat together all the time. Even if you don't know the other person very well, people are generally very accepting. I'd always see you two sitting off to the side and I felt bad. Sure all the time I didn't go over, but I did try to talk and sit with you guys a few times. I'm sorry if I wasn't the most warmest person when we talked but I'm really shy. I thought we had a few good talks in my ( ... )

I really hopr next year will be better too. I think it will. And I know I made thigns out to be worse then they really were, sometimes anywayz. Most people do that sometimes. But most of it is true. I feel bad that I didn't experience more or go out more or try anything out...but I fear rejection. Neither owen nor I ever fit in in either of our school thourghout our whole lives...we both alienated for everything since we were young so we really aren't all that keen up on joining the big group...especially if we were discluded or anything just once. I get hurt really easy, and that stems from my past...which I can't help and which I wish wasn't there. Yes I do think we had some good talks when I first came...and I appraciaste that very much, it made me feel so much better. I think the floor would have thought that when we left, but I didn't want to be in a place where I wasn't wanted, or felt I wasn't wanted, and owen just wanted to make me feel better really. That was totally my doing. I definitely know other peopl have their lonely ( ... )

Hey its Laura! anonymous April 29 2004, 13:33:31 UTC

I just wanted to say that it hurts me to know that you feel this way about our floor. I am sorry if you got the impression that you were unwanted, or didn't belong, because you did belong. I am personally sorry if I did anything to make you believe otherwise. I have never said anything bad about you, and I would never even today. From what I know of you, you are a strong individual, you should not feel rejected, or left out. I think at times, in general people felt that you didn't want to get to know us, and I guess in the end this whole situation is a big misunderstanding. I had no idea that you were hurting so much this year, and I am sorry for not noticing, but I think it is hard to know that people are hurting when you live with 20 other people. Anyways, Have a great summer, And be yourself, if people don't like you for who you are than they don't deserve to know you. See Ya
Laura

Re: Hey its Laura! thefrew88 April 30 2004, 11:50:07 UTC

WOW, thank you, everone else from the floor who either told me or wrote in LJ, wasn't too impressed i guess...well other people have commented on other things tho too. I don't konw after that whole deal with owen and all first semester that made it difficult. But such is life. And then with Conor and all, which was a little weird and all...that spiced it up a bit. Thank you for writing, I appreciate it very much, i really do. I don't konw it just seemed like our floor was so clicky and thats it, if u weren't in then you were out. I know I didn't make much of an effort at all, but thats just me I'm always like that. Oh well, everything is a laerning experience and I think next year will be ebtter. I'm not much of a living or bveing aorund a lot of people, i'm nt one for big groups. But you have a good summer too, keep in touch on MSN and all, ciao.

Re: Hey its Laura! anonymous May 8 2004, 14:36:45 UTC

If you're "just always like that", why are you expecting everyone else to make a huge effort on your part when you aren't willing to make any kind of effort yourself? I'm sorry, I wasn't there, and I obviously didn't go through what you did, but it seems a little bit like you were expecting people to jump up and make the whole effort for a friendship. If everyone were like that, then who would have any friends? I personally like you, and never had a reason to dislike you, but I also found that you weren't that friendly and were naturally pessimistic? I'm not trying to make any kind of attack, really, but if you want to avoid this kind of thing again (and I'm sure you do- I know how you're feeling right now), then you should think of the situation from your perspective AND from an outside perspective, because from my outside perspective, I found your floor to be really friendly and genuinely nice people whom I built solid friendships with.

Re: Hey its Laura! thefrew88 May 8 2004, 17:11:36 UTC

yes i can see that, I'm glad you built those friendships and everything, thats awesome! Well not knowing me you really aren't one to judge about a lot of stuff...I say I'm like that, but did it ever occur to you that maybe there is a reason behind it, a reason behind things?? I konw the ppl on my floor were nice people, they were, i agree. And I also know that everyone thought I was unfriendly and down and stuff like that, but how do i come back out of a rut so deep as what happened in first semester with owen. That was not the easiest thing ti get myself out of, and I didn't even put myself in it...if i had an option i wouldn't even have gotten involved with that situation, but unfrotunately I was. I would probably one the ones to take everyhitng from both perspectives before a lot of other people, but you wouldn't konw that, no one really would ( ... )

let this be the end! osk May 8 2004, 17:34:46 UTC

i'd like to know why everyone is so quick to blame marcie for everything that happened? can no one fully understand what it means to make an effort? she has tried, i've been with her when she's tried, i've been with her when she's been shot down by several people on the floor. i'd like to know why people can't just accept that they didn't make much of an effort to do anything...don't just say she never made an effort, it works both ways people, same as courtesy...we did our best to be as courteous as possible with all of you, but that meant nothing to any of you and you all delighted in making sure that marcie and i never had any freedom tyo do as we pleased. the one weekend we are in the lounge, is it so much to ask that we be given some privacy and some leeway? everyone was up late that night, why the hell you all woke up at 8 am wanting to watch tv is beyond me...we were trying to be nice to our roomates, should we be condemned for our kindness to them? would it have been better had one of us been from another university, and only ( ... )

oh the drama... anonymous May 9 2004, 14:53:52 UTC

You guys are all so drama-hungry that it makes me laugh...
Marcie and Owen, the best to you...I really hope that you have a better year next year.
...and everyone knows that you will write whatever you want in your journal-that's why you got it in the first place...so keep it up.

Re: oh the drama... thefrew88 May 9 2004, 17:47:53 UTC

Thank you, much appreciated!

oh my anonymous May 11 2004, 18:44:02 UTC

Wow. Owen. you couldn't be more right. You know, secretly.. behind your back.... we all sat around in our rooms and had secret meetings to come up with plans to try to break you and marcie up. We also tried to come up with the most horrible things that we could possibly do to you. We wanted to make sure that your life was just as uncomfortable as we could make it. Because, you know... being the horrible, viscious people that we are... we just couldn't stop ourselves from trying to destroy your lives ( ... )

Re: oh my thefrew88 May 11 2004, 20:23:51 UTC

Can we please just drop all of this stupid childish nonesense...forget about it and move on. I just want to forget about it, theres nothing anyone can do to make it go away, it won't change. Next year will be different and that will be good for everyone. So please, can we all just give it up and forget about it...stop making the back and forth comebacks and the stupid remarks. We don't need to put each other down anymore. Its not necessary. Please lets just stop it.
