What's Bothering You?

I told my best friend that she was being immature while I was hanging out with her at school yesterday and she got defensive and snapped at me. "Oh, you think I'm immature? Did you get a job yet? Did you get your driver's license?" Yikes... I can't even get my driver's license because I'm still 15. Also, time to add her to my list of people telling me to get a job. Ugh. I don't think it's such a good idea when I struggle so much in school, anyways. At least I don't make a ton of sex jokes (which is why I called her immature) and take everything in a sexual way... I guess we have different definitions of 'mature'. Whatever, I shouldn't even be mad about this.
 
I don’t know what to expect working tomorrow. I’m going to a different store for the next three days. I’m happy that it will be overtime. I heard it will be easier since there’s no dining room.
 
trying to get all my courses into order is making go wild. i'm getting a migraine from thinking so much :///
at least i have gym first semester (semptember until sometime in march) so i dont have to worry about running in the hot summer heat :D
 
Stressing about moving back to be closer to campus to start college again. I feel more-so than my previous years, even though this will be like, my 5th time doing it? I moved back with my parents to spend the summer with my family (as I usually do) and got a part-time job while I juggled summer school. Though my work stressed me out because the management was toxic, I made a friends with a few of my co-workers and saying goodbye was emotional... I think I'm feeling more sad about moving away this year because it would have been nice to make plans to hang out with my friends outside of work. 😔
 
I thought that “Where is Gnome” event was a task requiring New Horizons because I saw pictures of the game. I wasn’t reading closely enough and just found out an hour ago you literally just have to post captions. I missed out on that event because I wasn’t paying attention to the rules.
 
I was supposed to return to uni next week but something went wrong and now idk if I can even take any classes. Feeling helpless. Hope everything sorts itself out somehow...
 
losing my mind over duty work. i really want to be decked at the operating room but things just keep on preventing me from that and i keep on getting assigned to the wards 🥲 is this a sign telling me i'm never meant to be a surgeon...............
 
I saw a homeless lady with no shoes on and some seriously messed up feet so I offered her my sandals. She tried them on and they were way too big for her feet, like 4 sizes too big so she had to give them back. I had to put them back on after she had her feet in them as to not offend her but I think imma throw them out now lmao.
 
Is it bad that I’m kind of relieved that they didn’t call me in for the interview? Last night I had trouble sleeping because I kept going over possible interview questions.
 
bad sinus headache again, I really want to do some stuff tonight (including watching the TBT gaming livestream at 10pm) but more so I just want to go to bed. going to sleep is one of the few things that can for sure get rid of a headache for me. I just hate going to bed so early.
 
I ran into some stories people shared of local governments trying to tell property owners what to do or trying to micromanage them. Some even being outside of city limits (meaning out in the country and the county wanting to ban gardens and animals). These always make me angry.
It's also insane that some small towns are more strict than the larger cities.

I mean, who cares (beyond law makers wanting to control and line thier pockets I guess) if someone is growing some peppers in their backyard or have a few chickens or ducks if they are healthy and contained or collect rainwater for your tomatoes. Nothing needs to be seized nor bulldozed nor assigned a fee.

Or the double standard of cats and dogs requiring licences and yearly fees but not being enforced unless you have something that gives you the slightest independence from the grocery store. Or cats and dogs roaming around pooping (even attacking) and making noise vs the claim birds are noisy when dog barks are actually louder than chickens and ducks squawks.
It is insane to label rabbits as live stock or as an exotic animal, thus banned, when you got wild rabbits running around everywhere (naturally) with no removal being implemented by local govs. But guinea pigs (cavies) aren't listed when they have always been kept as pets and livestock forever in the Americas.

Freedom ring and pursue of happiness my *** I'm surprised libraries still exist, as they are the only places where you can exist without the expectation of spending money.
 
Dearest random person on the internet who added American Idiot by Green Day to a Spotify sleep songs playlist, immediately following Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 21… I hope karma gets you back at 3:04 A.M. sometime soon.
 
I’m tired of having a messy social life. I’m too quiet to meet people in person, so I exclusively reach out online. The friendships always start out great. We talk at least once a day and the conversations are deep and not superficial. Then I either forget to send messages or they quit reaching out themselves. If the former happens I feel guilty and either send yet another apology, act like nothing happened in my response, or ghost them because I find it too awkward. If it’s the latter then I either desperately reach out to no avail or I hear back after weeks or months (this isn’t their fault of course. Life happens).

For the times where it’s my responsibility I have gotten somewhat better. Thanks to my ADHD medication I find it easier to keep track of everyone I message. That fear of another awkward apology still happens though.

I guess I just wish this cycle would end because it’s so predictable. I wish keeping online friends was easier. If anyone has advice on this I would appreciate it.
 
Istg if one of them says some passive-agressive comment about how I'm not doing enough work in my department (again, which I am doing alot) at the meeting today...
 
I haven't been here consistently since before I came out as nb/trans and since atm I'm here by myself I feel really uncomfortable lol 😶
 
Woke up this morning with a nosebleed. Then I coughed out blood in the sink. I didn't know if I was gonna throw up or faint. Great start to my morning. :,)
