So many people. Amazing people.
basically everyone I follow on tumblr.
I’ve been blessed that I’ve been able to actually meet one of my best online friends in real life (I’ve met a couple online friends IRL actually!), but there are still so many that I would love to get the chance to hang out with in real life.

five : who was that guy ?
His name was David, and I had a crush on him all throughout high school. From second semester my freshman year till the day I graduated.
What’s funny is that he started dating my friend Rachel our freshman year, and then our junior year he started dating this other girl who was a senior and was my Biology partner my sophomore year and I really...

It wasn’t the greatest job, but I enjoyed working with the people I was working with and it was decent money. Plus it gave me a place to stay and relatively easy access to places.
Cross your fingers/pray for me. I really need a job, and even though I’ve had this one before, it’s something. Otherwise I have no idea what I’m going to do. :(

*English nerd alert*
I don’t actually consider pronunciation to be at all a determining factor in whether a person speaks “correct” English or not. Pronunciation varies a lot and is constantly changing. Shakespeare did not speak the English we know today as being from England (he would have had a pronunciation much closer to what we think of as standard...

one : How you felt the first day of highschool
I kind of had two first days of high school. My first first day was the first day of school at the American high school in Wisconsin I went to for a semester in 2000, and I’m not really sure how I felt. I did kind of have high expectations because I’d seen a lot of American movies growing up so I had one idea of what high school...
