Been home for two weeks, and it'll be quite the transition to say the least.  But little by little, it's settling.  For those that don't know (my last entries were quite a bit ago) I was hired at a non-denominational Christian school in Battle Ground WA to teach 2nd grade.  I'm taking a pay cut, but so grateful to have a job at all.  Lot of my ( Read more... )

ARRGG I need to get myself some Marina and the Diamonds! I keep forgettiiiing. I love the music video to "I am not a Robot."

I definitely, DEFINITELY can relate to friends putting you down. I'm... too nice of a person, and for some reason, would end up the butt of a lot of jokes. It doesn't happen so much now, thank goodness, but during high school and a little bit after, it was really awful. I'm sorry you're going through that yourself. I don't know if the situation is that your friend just thinks he's being funny or what, but I'm glad you're not putting up with it, like I did for so long! <33333

a) SO much YAY for the job! :D

b) Friends bringing you down = not cool. :( I know confrontation epically sucks, but have you ever addressed it with them? I know with friends I've known for a long time, it's easy to get into habits, and it would be easy for me to tease them and them to take it the wrong way - but I wouldn't know unless they told me. Maybe it's similar with your friends?
But regardless - living with someone who poses the potential to bring you down...mmm I would opt for someone cheerier.
Definitely surround yourself with wonderful, supportive people - because that's huge in maintaining your sanity. :)
