I’m so tired it’s unreal

I haven’t been this tired since like january when I was being ravaged by that relentless cold and I came home every day and just passed out on the floor (thus inspiring that stupidly popular post)

but tomorrow is my LAST EVER DAY OF HIGH SCHOOL and while I’m sure it won’t be that monumental or even that fun (seniors aren’t the majority in any of the classes I have to go to) I would like to be somewhat conscious

I also want to write letters for all my friends because I am terrible at showing appreciation/compassion for them and tend to just throw it all at them in huge heaps

but I’m not feeling very sharp and my head’s all fuzzy and I don’t think they’ll be very good. it’s still totally worth doing but ugh man all I want to do is curl up and sleep for 15 hours.

I don’t think I really want it to be summer

I mean I want to be done with school but I don’t want all this anxiety that comes with not doing enough then feeling bad about it

plus the heat and the anticipation of college and yeah I’m really not a fan of summer at all

I hope I can make something good of it

anyway

man my next post will be my 8000th? I kind of want to do something special even though it’s just a meaningless number.

I mean I’m sure it’ll be lame but

stay tuned

contain your excitement

OH GOD NO

KRISTEN WIIG IS RETIRING FROM SNL???

NO NO NO NO THIS CAN’T HAPPEN

SHE WAS THE ONLY GOOD THING LEFT I’M GONNA CRY

or just read tina fey’s autobiography again

probably that

so somebody commissioned me to draw their cat character (GREATEST SURPRISE EVER) and I finished the first one all pleased with myself and everything

and 5 minutes later I was like “ugh that looks exactly like everything I’ve ever drawn, it’s so LIFELESS”

so then I did the other two sketches as kind of a bonus, and so I wouldn’t feel so frustrated

the last one is supposed to be rolling around in the grass or something. you know how cats do. turns out that’s pretty hard to draw but whatever.

Psychologists Discover How People Subconsciously Become Their Favorite Fictional Characters

Psychologists have discovered that while reading a book or story, people are prone to subconsciously adopt their behavior, thoughts, beliefs and internal responses to that of fictional characters as if they were their own.

Experts have dubbed this subconscious phenomenon ‘experience-taking,’ where people actually change their own behaviors and thoughts to match those of a fictional character that they can identify with.

I freaking love psychology

Makes sense to me

I always notice myself imitating characters in little ways for a few hours after reading them. Video games too if there’s a strong plot. 

yeah man! whenever I finish reading a book I find myself narrating my life in the style of the writing, which, if it’s first person, tends to match the thought processes and attitudes of the protagonist. it’s crazy. I guess if you immerse yourself in a totally different state of mind for a while, your brain mimics it until you’ve adjusted to reality again.

sorry I haven’t been posting like at all lately

I’ve been doing teen things

no

no not those kind of teen things

I said I was gonna compile this at the end of one year, but I’ve been doing a graph-as-I-go-along approach and I realized it’s been a whole month since I started doing this, so I thought I would show the results.

this a whole month of daily happiness ratings, on a scale of 1 to 10

the problem is life has been pretty…boring? so my scale is effectively more like 4 to 8, and I’ve been treating 6 as ‘average’. I mean obviously 10 is reserved for a “BEST DAY OF MY LIFE” situation, and anything beneath 2 would probably be severe depression, which I’m not even sure if I’ve ever actually felt.

the other problem if a day has a sharp low point and sharp high point, then I guess it technically becomes average on the scale? but that’s not really accurate.

anyway I’m not really sure what to make of this yet. except that it doesn’t take me long to rebound from a low point, which is a nice thing to see.

it would be interesting to see how this correlates to how often I post on tumblr, but I don’t know if I’m feeling that motivated.

next on a new legend of korra, EVERYTHING IS A TRICK, TRUST NO ONE

here’s everything I’m gonna try and sell tomorrow

honestly I would be thrilled to get $30-40 but we’ll see

anyway I’m gonna go see the avengers with some friends! time to see what all the hype is about

I think I’m gonna..try to have a garage sale this weekend?

well more like just set up a little table because it’s the neighborhood garage sale and tons of people will be coming through so I can totally take advantage of that

it just seems like a good idea since I know I won’t be doing anything productive and I can clear some stuff out that I’d probably just throw away when I’m packing for college

and I’ll be like the only one not selling baby clothes and candles and weird antique decorative shit

maybe I can even make some cookies and lemonade?? people ALWAYS buy food

what are some good things to sell at garage sales? like things that sell surprisingly well

my mom brought home this terrifying monstrosity today

I think it’s a middle school art project

where did I go wrong

this is gonna sound terrible but there are honestly some majors that I’m not really sure what you’re supposed to do with except hold over peoples’ heads when you’re having long-winded arguments on the internet
