I have the stupid helper gene...go figure

So i think way too much before i sleep. Go figure all my updates are always late in the night. Anyways, so i kinda felt like the doctor who has a phd in psych bitch slapped me in the face today. Lecture was about personality dealing w/ the id, ego, & super ego. Learned that some ppl have the "stupid helper gene" or aka suckerence(?). Basically he told us to not help ppl. idk really but he used the example of someone wanting to be a psychologist to help ppl and he disagreed w/ it. well that's when i felt bitch slapped. I want to be a social worker/counselor just so i could help ppl. So wtf is wrong w/ that? Yea he pointed out that some ppl don't want to be helped and that's understandable. But i want to help ppl. well then what am i meant to do in this life?

"I'm on the pursuit of happiness and i know everything that shines ain't always gonna be gold. Hey, I'll be fine once i get it. Yeah, I'll be good..."

Hold on to your kite

I wonder a lot about people. so much that i forget to worry and wonder about myself. I'm always interested in what other people have or have not done in their lives. i guess it's my way of figuring out the world & the things that people do in it. What about myself? No clue. Just know people I've met or known since forever have stories to tell. i don't find myself interesting for some reason. It doesn't mean i don't have any self-esteem tho. that was the topic for lecture in psychology today. How people have to have a sense of belongingness external & internal to have self-esteem which then leads to self-actualization. i think i have somewhat achieved that in my own kind of way for my life right now. Had a talk w/ a good friend today. Made me realize how lucky i am to have a friend like her. no matter what the circumstances are, we can always release stress on each other & motivate ourselves to do better. It's unfortunate on how many people I've lost as friends throughout these years but I've learned to accept that not everyone is compatible. I just hope my future relationships with men won't be like that. I'm trying to remember what Dr. G said about relationships. shit. Wish i had a spiffy mac to record him in class. I'm growing this fond feeling for him. no, not like that, but a very respectful one. He's the most opened teacher that I've ever had. But I'm afraid to talk to him and he never seems to remember me whenever he takes roll. psych is opening my mind so much than sociology. Might want to minor in it now. And i was so afraid to take psych especially w/ Dr. G. I'm just glad i didn't listen to myself.

Speechless

I can't seem to breathe. something so simple can get me worked up and make my heart flutter like crazy! no, not in love. Just so overwhelmed at the fact he replied with so much more then i needed. Bit confusing but i love it. let me have my moment then I'll reply. i want to have a real conversation with him. I want to know the real him, not the him that other people assume they know. i know he is something so much more. my confidence in talking to guys has gone way down. I blame it on the loser who left me so speechless a few yrs back. Oh forget about that. The present is what I'm focusing on! But how w/out putting myself on the spot? I don't even knw how to play the game and i especially don't want to lose if i do. to make a move or not?

I'm having this memory almost like a dream...

i can't help but think what went wrong or what is wrong in my life but so far everything seems good. But there's always this negative energy that coexist. I can't seem to get rid of it. idk if it even is that. my great uncle went on a train in la today to go up to norcal, to Oakland. Nearly took him 12 hours just to get there where by car would've taken 6-7 hrs. he wanted to experience it. Never again he told my father on the phone after arriving there. Out of all the times he has taken the time to visit us, this was the most memorable one even though it was short and didn't do much. Well i guess I've matured more after the last time i saw him. He told me & my siblings not to put pressure on my dad. This is the worst he's seen of my father. Wow did that struck a brain cell. my dad never shows pain or weakness ever and that's why I'm blind when it comes to that. I always think my dad's invincible and he doesn't let anything bring him down. Now I'm worried what is going to be left of my father in the future. Oh the uncertainties in life.

Sleepless for no reason

I haven't had a good night's sleep all this week and i can't seem to be tired enough to sleep but I'd wake up so tired. Wtf I'm not even thinking about much either. Ugh and i even stayed up so late studying for psych 1 which i got an A in! Thought Dr. G. was going to be super hard but he's easier than Thompson! Nah about the same haha. Dr. G. is funnier tho. Kinda wish i took it during regular semester but nah summer's more chill

i like talking to cute guys but...

Well i added him on Facebook. Didn't want to for a while but hey i partied with him a couple of times and had some deep convos here and there haha. posted "heyyy what's up :)" w/ a reply "hey long time no see. How is everything?! I've been working"


i couldn't be anymore awkward always hanging onto every word a guy i think is cute would say to me. Same w/ looks. Even if it's something so irrelevant or simple. I kinda flirted w/ this guy but it was nothing to him probably and yet i hang on to it. I felt a little connection tho but he's kinda a guy w/out any real goals in life. But what if just what if. Shit. My standards are too high sometimes...ok most. Ugh I'll be single forever.

If you're a normal stranger who happens to talk to me, then you just became my friend. That's how i roll ;D

I'd do him

He just suggested 2 songs for me to check out after having to update my fb status about suggestions for new music. my heart fluttered as i read the comment he had left me. I know it's not a big deal really. Just a friend suggesting music. Listened to banana pancakes by jack Johnson...a very romantic song. Checked out the lyrics for seaside by the kooks. A bit romantic too. But man he's so damn good looking i just can't help myself in thinking "what if i truly ever do like this guy?" always thought he was so damn hot from the 8th grade till now. Just never really thought and emphasized it till now. He's tall, blonde, blue eyed, and is going to school in the US Army. Now tell me, doesn't that sound like yum ;D
