pungency.

i got through the past week of non-stop working, which is definitely taking a lot of stress off my shoulders right now. i've taken four tests, written a paper, given a speech, and made an outline and now it's time for just a little rest. and we all know that "resting" directly translates to "thinking"... so here goes nothing.

i haven't been nice lately. not at all. i wouldn't call it straight being a bitch - i really try to stray away from just being mean. but i've been easily annoyed and the way i deal with frustration is by, in a way, ignoring most everything except that which i have to get done. so if i've been snappy or out of it lately around you, i'm really sorry. i have some things i need to figure out, some decisions i need to make, none of which have been easy on me - but that's no reason to take it out on anyone else. i think it's just human nature, though.. to get stressed and take frustrations out on anyone else who comes close. it's just natural.

i've been listening to lykke li and el perro del mar a lot lately. lykke li's voice makes me swoon a little bit; i won't even lie.

i think i'm going to start taking some time out to just be by myself completely. it's the only way i think i can really thrive. the more i'm alone, the less irritated i am, and that's what i'm striving for, right? so that's something.

turned in my pre-application and application for the tycc. now i'm waiting for a call back. :) i'm really excited to be living at home this summer, and hopefully working with them and volunteering for the red cross. it'll be a great summer.

on that note.. i'm done. for right now. something else will probably pop in to my head later, but for right now i'm too tired to even think of anything else.

... oh, and one more thing? graduation is the same weekend as beale street music festival. i am NOT happy. i think they should fix it.. to suit my schedule. just kidding. :)
