The thing I hate most about gossip is the fact that when it comes back around to you and you hear all of the things people have been saying about you, it hurts a lot more than you thought it would. Knowing that your closest friends and family have been talking about you and filling in your story with what they think is true, is the most hurtful and heartbreaking thing. I would have never imagined that some of the things they were saying about me would hurt me so much though. I thought I could just brush it off and move on like I always have. Apparently I have become soft and now things are getting to me more than they ever have. So many people have told me how strong I am and how they envy the fact that I can handle so much without falling apart. In fact, I was told that today. My mom said “I know you would never ask for help and I know you can handle stuff on your own because you are the strongest person I know, but you don’t always have to be so strong.” That made me feel good until I heard what people had been saying about me. I’ve made plenty of mistakes in my life that I’m not proud of, but they make me who I am and some of the things have made me a stronger person. I don’t regret a thing. I wouldn’t do things differently and no, I would cut certain parts of my life out to be happier. I don’t think it would make me happier. Some of the things that have happened have made me happier now because I appreciate what I have been given. Sometimes you have to see how bad things can really get before you open your eyes and realize that what you have is incredible and that you deserve the best…even if you have made mistakes. I feel like I am repeating myself when I write all of this out. I feel like I’ve written this same thing so many times. So why does it keep happening? And why am I hurt more by it now than I ever have been? Now? When my life is so good?

Question: Is it possible to drink enough coffee to keep myself awake after taking medicine for my cold that is already making me drowsy? 

Question: Did that question actually make sense? 

Question: If so, am I just killing myself by trying to balance out the poison I’m dumping into my body? 

Question: Can someone please turn off the AC in this room? It’s winter. Not sure if anyone told you. 

All of these questions and more, answered after the break.
