I think I can only talk to her when she was sad... when she's happy, she really doesn't need me. And I feel that she doesn't need me.  Well, she seems happy, and I guess it's time for me to seriously start moving on...  it's been this way for awhile.  I've just been super stupid.

I honestly don't believe that I care what other people think of me.  It's just that I'm anxious about being anxious.  I don't want my voice to start to shake again, nor do I want to share things that I half-ass'd. At least, from all of this, I can advance mentally instead of always retracting or staying the same.  What I learned was to always prepare.  Preparation is the most important in building confidence, and to prevent situations that I know I don't want happening.  Now if only I can just... engage in preparing then I'm all good.  But procrastination feels so much more natural... ah.

I think I have this disorder.  It's called Essential Tremor.

I really can't control certain situations... just two days ago, I was randomly chosen to read my thesis for a paper, and I couldn't speak at all, I felt I sounded retarded, or really wimpy and fobby, but I couldn't control it... thinking back, it happened to me serveral times.  In Microbiology, I failed pippeting into this tube because my hands wouldn't stop shaking.  I was teaching one time, and my hands started shaking, and my voice shakes... gahh this is so embarrassing.

I did a little research though, and it says what I already know: reducing sugar, getting more sleep, and excercising regularly. Also, I think I truly do need more exposure.  Exposure around people, and just talking more.  Having friends definitely helps, but it's overwhelming (I had TWO friends in ONE day yesterday).  It's all because I'm scared.  It's fear.  (Or did my anxiety come before fear?)  All I can do now is prepare... I just want to stop shaking and stuff and once I get past my fears I think I can be super cool.

Feels so weird having two friends a day...

One thing I noticed about almost all the protagonists in Murakami's novels is how they're... fearless.

Charles Darwin's Diary Entry

"My will and reason were powerless against the imagination of a danger which had never been experienced."

How's This

She's more sensitive than me, so it's my fault. 

But... how do we measure sensitivity anyway?!?!  

Dammit!

My professor said it.  He said my million dollar idea that I thought only I had.  I thought I was a genius of thinking it, but I guess not.

The thought was how we're limited as a species because of our language.  There is only so much you can do if you only think in words.

But a professor thought this!  And I thought of this too! So... maybe it's not that bad after all.  At least I'm not alone in my thoughts and people actually think the same things I do.

What if it was written in books a long time ago though, but I just haven't found it out.  What if all thoughts I have were already in books, what's the use of thinking if I could just read.  Oh yeah, I think because I'm too lazy to actually do anything.
