our existence has serious side effects

can you think of any more ways to talk down to me? 

i’m sure there’s a few things you haven’t managed to say to make me feel completely terrible. 

hysteriaa:

So many foreign worlds
(So relatively fucked)
So ready for us
So ready for us,
The creature fear

-Bon Iver, Creature Fear

why is my life so awesome?

see the thing is i dress like tegan all the time. or at least whenever i wear that blue plaid shirt she has. the only distinguishing factor would be if i drew a blue line across my face like the promo pictures for the con.

Indulge me.

so for the past couple months, someone in my hall has been leaving a zillion empty bottles of water in the toilet stalls. and it’s confused the hell out of everyone as to wtf they’re doing there.

so last night around the time of 3 am, my roommate and i made signs saying ‘what’s with the waterbottles?’ and taped them to the stall doors hoping to get a response. 

someone else wrote ‘yeah i’m curious too.’ and taped a pencil to one sign. 

finally, we got answers saying they were using them in lieu  of a bidet. 

FUCKING JUST TAKE A SHOWER PEOPLE. 

or at least throw away your fucking bottles. 

hygiene is not an excuse to leave your used empty water bottles in toilet stalls. 

i’m not dating anyone unfortunately. and i don’t really have any crushes either i guess.

Indulge me.

haha i wishh. unfortunately my halloween (at least as far as dressing up goes) is basically over.

Indulge me.
