For the sake of keeping names private. I’m going to call this person J-douche. Anyway J-douche went to London with me and some people over spring break. He was basically by himself because he has no friends that were going so he latched himself onto our group. He did this because he was friends with my roommate at college (and no she wasn’t even

Yay new entry! Boo J-Douche! You're right he was a total douchebag on the trip -get over yourself, white boy lol. Also, that sucks about the "learning disability". But I think that everybody has some sort of learning disability to an extent. Nobody is good at everything. It might take you longer to really explain things but at least you can understand yourself! If you started getting confused then we might have a problem ;) Haha. I also don't think you're critical but I can relate to you definitely. I'm super critical about lots of s*** but it's not to be hurtful. I think that maybe the reason I am (and it might be different for you) critical of people is that I want to see the best in people but they don't bring themselves to be what I think we are capable of. I think that people should be better according to what I think is good - but that's different for everybody. Just a thought?...Anyways wow long response I'm glad you updated AND nice photo! <3 <3 <3

haha thanks it's one of my favorite pics from our trip. I think you're right about the critical thing and that is maybe why I am. In fact that makes a lot of sense when I think about it. Hope to see you soon!!!

It seems like rampant obsession with other countries cultures is a much more common occurrence than anyone would have thought. I've met a few other people with zealous obsessions before and like you experienced, it gets old real quick. I like Japan too, but I'm fully aware of my white guy status and that it will prevent me from ever being fully accepted. Granted that might change as generations pass, but I won't be around for those.

As for noticing our own faults, I have plenty. I suffer from a lack of really caring about anything, which brings about motivational issues and depressive swings of my mood. I know it can make me come off as being cold towards people, or an ass, emotions aren't a strong point either. I have a hard time keeping in contact with people even if I want to. I dunno if these are technically fault, but they are all things I'm not good at, which is close enough for me. Your not alone in having problems, everyone has them, they just happen to be different things.

[danivbdh]

well even though you think you suffer from a lack of caring about anything you have always made me feel cared about as a friend of yours. I've never doubted that you cared about me even if I'm totally off the mark on how you actually feel about me. haha. But I hope that we'll always stay in contact at least over the internet if nothing else.

What, my Dani arrogant!? No way, not even close!! ♥ Look at me and Vera, you're nowhere near our douche levels!

It takes a lot of courage for you to come out and talk about your learning disability. I always feel that is hard to do, I guess I don't like thinking about what other people think. One thing I learned though, is that it doesn't matter what other people think at all. What matters is what you think. Positive thoughts= positive outcomes and negative thoughts result in negative outcomes and lack of confidence. It is hard not to judge others when you feel like others are constantly judging you..but one thing you have to think about is that they might not be judging you at all. and you judging them makes you the one judging. It is hard for people not to think something bad about someone when you first glance at them...but maybe by you not judging others so quickly...it will result in them not judging you.
