Stuck in the Friendzone With You

Friendzone- The friendzone is when a person A likes person B, but is afraid to tell person B because they are good friends and person A doesn't want to lose person B as a friend.

Story of my LIFEEEE.

 My entire college experience has been one long reminder that I'm a friendzone kinda girl. It fracking sucks. Not to say that guys are never interested in me, but any interest exhibited is ridiculously short-lived. It baffles me, I'm funny, smart, at least a little pretty, a nerd, politically minded, a comic book girl, I like dogs, and I think action movies are awesome. What's not to like about me?! 

I try not to take it personally, or scream at people when they tell me its just not the right time, that the right guy hasn't come around yet. I understand they mean well, but they don't understand. I don't want a relationship right now, I just want someone to be interested in me as more than just their awesome friend. To be seen as a woman, as something special, as something desirable. I know it will happen one day...but after a time, it's a bummer.

Whats even worse is when my friends get into relationships and I find my friends friendzoning me. Suddenly I don't exist to them beyond being someone to talk about how AWESOME their new significant other is. You cannot believe how old this gets. I get that new relationships are all lovey-dovey and all that crap, but come one. A little effort goes a long way.

And fellow friendzone-dwellers, maybe it's time we spoke up! Even if they don't feel the same way, isn't it better to know where you stand? Maybe they never thought about you like that because they think you're not interested or they just need to get their brain going in that direction. Ideas are funny things, once its in your head it isn't going anywhere. And it usually gets more persistent the more you try not to focus on it. Just try.

Whatever you do, do not think about an elephant spinning around in  a blue suit right now. Just don't

Computer and Life Woes

Hey-o! Sorry I did my vanishing act again, my computer has been liming along for months and Dad is still in the process of patching it up. My CD drive only reads discs like 30% of the time, and its slower then a blind turtle crawling backwards through molasses*.  Maybe if I know how to properly care for and maintain the device, it wouldn't be so bad, but it is a three year old kinda cheap laptop. I keep saying that once I get a REAL job I'll treat myself to a tripped out new desktop. Someday...

In addition to that fun, spring semester has started! Woo hoo! And let me tell you, even though it's only hte third day of class, I'm already learning a lot! So far I have learned: Ten AM is waaay too late to get a good parking spot, I love Canadians but haven't cared for either of my Canadian professors, I wasn't the only one who HATED Jewish Lit last semester (THANK GOD!), and that beards really do look dumb on college boys. I'll keep you updated on how the semester progresses. Hopefully it will be better then the last one!




*I actually timed the two, my computer vs a blind turtle crawling backwards through molasses. The turtle totally outstripped my computer. Pathetic.
