that $$$ is halting me from being happy

No, I'm not talking about materialistic things that I HAVE to have or else I'll die, it's more of a constant stressor that's embedded in the back of my mind.

It sucks having to be frugal with money just so you have enough to pay rent and stay in school.  I'm not one to go out to eat on a daily basis nor am I one to buy spontaneously.  I wish I could, but there's really no room for any of that.

I guess I can be glad that there's a roof over my head for now.  I'm not sure how much longer I can take bread, water, and vitamins.

Long story short, screw you money! *looks for more jobs*

hot or cold? My body doesn't know

It's over 107 degrees right now and you can literally slap the heat by just moving a little.

Since the sun's draining all of my energy, my brain started thinking of random things.  Specifically, which would I choose to live in if I could only choose one -- extremely hot weather or freezing cold?

I sat here and thought seriously about each one.  There are pros with each but all were outweighed by their cons.    I still don't know which I'd choose.

Anyways, it's too hot to type right now so if you readers could only choose one, which would it be and why?

professors are confusing

I'm enrolled in a class where the professor presents us with a project but leaves out any detail of what she wants done.

She just wants to see what we can come up with.  This is either win or lose for the students because she may have a bias for certain designs so she will always give higher grades to those who do things the way she expects them to be done.

She also said the C students get farther in life.  It's as if she wants us to push for a C letter grade.

"Those who fail the most, succeed," she says.

I can understand the whole concept of doing things over and over until you get it right so that you can learn from past mistakes, but the way she gave her lecture made that point very confusing.

I guess she wants to use the C students to help her change her style or something.  Not sure what to think of this professor.

I'd announce something

It may be a bit more difficult for me to update this thing as much as before due to classes starting.

I want to give a formal apology to all my readers who are expecting a new post per day -- i'm sorry!

I'll try my best to keep this as updated as possible, though.  Thanks for all of your support, and I really hope this doesn't turn into a place where I get mad at homework/assignments! (I'm already dreading it)

Anyways, stay strong people! If you're feeling alone, just know I appreciate all of you. (cornyyyyyy but true!)

Is it really that wrong to be truthful to children?

Before you think that I hate children or anything, I really don't!

Some kids are actually really nice except those ones that are extremely misbehaved and attack you with toys and bite your face. (this did not happen to me by the way, just saying)

I'm well aware that morally, you should refrain from being too truthful with children.  I completely understand that fact, but I feel like there's a certain point when you should somehow encourage them to excel in whatever it is that you keep lying to them about.

Let's take dancing for example.  You tell a kid to dance and they do.  Sure their wobbly arms and constant jumping may seem cute, but really.. IT SUCKS -- but you can't tell them that. You begin to encourage them over and over no matter how bad they are.  Then they build this extreme confidence and think they're really good when they aren't.

I'm laughing as I write this because the topic does sound really mean.. but I honestly feel that if you tell them in a way that doesn't make them cry or kill their dreams, it's okay to teach them/tell them the correct way of doing things.

Just don't be a jerk to them when you do correct them!

I really hope i'm not the only one that feels this way. *dies*

'nothing' is a lie

What's wrong? Nothing. (followed by awkward passive silence and avoidance)

To give an answer like this is just asking for an unnecessary war.

There's really only a few times when the person genuinely means it when they reply with nothing.

that I need to calm down with my multitasking

If you've been following me for a while now, you probably have noticed that I always feel the need to do something.

I spend too much time thinking of ways to do everything at the same time instead of actually doing those things.

Why do I even plan a strategy to get multiple things done instead of just doing them? I know better than this, yet I continue to do it.

*slaps self*

Focus! Get it done! Then move on! You'll be amazed at how much you've accomplished!

There's an 80% chance I will disregard these proven methods that work for me. I seriously need to follow my own advice
