I am bad at survival. FACT.

      I have been in The Loft of the house in which I live for the past three days.  I have left occasionally for food and water and the birthday party of two (now 4-year-old) girls who are related to me.  

This is not good.


     I mean, I like to think of myself as fairly well-adjusted for a 16-year-old girl, and then I go do something like, say, play Batman: Arkham Asylum for about twelve hours straight and when I get kicked off of the XBox do I go out? Do I do something productive? Maybe get some...I don't know...well-needed exercise, or something?


NO!

I grabs some earbuds and plug them into the computer and proceed to watch about twenty Jennifer Lawrence interviews before moving on to some Vlogbrothers as YouTube dessert.*

This is RIDICULOUS.


It was sunny today. I have a bike, I could've gone to the-wait, no; the library's closed on Mondays, especially Holiday mondays. DANGIT. I could've called a friend, though. Maybe hung out with them and drawn, gone through comics, watched B-Movies, ANYTHING. 

Instead I just sort of hung around.  

While I firmly believe it's great and healthy to have a "Lazy Day", having a "Lazy Three-day Weekend of Angry Gaming and No Showers" makes me sound like a bit of a cliché.**

Good thing there's another three-day weekend coming up. Maybe I'll actually go outside.*** 

Cheers-

*Yum, smart people!

**Good thing I have all my new comics to keep me company!

***To be absolutely fair, I did go out on Friday with my friends to see Warm Bodies(awesome movie, by the way) but that was before the weekend started.

I am a Greedy Nerd

Hello, internet.


I was on a walk with Ammamay* and the Nami dog when I came across an interesting fact about myself.


I hoard knowledge. I love to learn things. I mean, the most fun I have is generally when learning things, but I don't want to do anything with that knowledge, I just want to learn stuff.


This is a bad thing, I think.


'Scholar' is no longer a proper career option and I'm not sure it ever was a career option for us nerd ladies, anyway. I don't have a bunch of brilliant ideas all of the time. I have problems with applying math to my science*. I am, quite often, an idiot.


Q:Where does this leave me?


A1:A part-time job that pays for endless tuition!


A2:TENURED PROFESSORSHIP![YEAH, RIGHT!(...idiot *facepalm*)]


A3:Doesn't matter become a librarian and work on my post-grad psychology courses while "workin' the shelves".


A4:I don't know, I'm not sure if I'll ever know. Some sort of alternative lifestyle that involves the romanticized ideal of a traveling renaissance youth, who travels and gains wisdom eternally young.**


A5:Become half of a married bank-robbing duo. Die by being shot during a car chase by the kind of gun that I, myself, use during robberies.***



      The truth is-I have no idea how my life will go, or what curveballs it will throw at me(ooo, a baseball metaphor! *rolls eyes*). I don't know if everything will go according to plan. To clear things up a bit, I choose Option 3 as of this moment in time.


Here's to our bright futures!

*My dear Mother

**I'm not that clouded by my dreams, although it sounds like fun.
***Hehe.
