The Labyrinth

My personal blog world. Called The Labyrinth because life basically is one.

So. Me:

Name: Sara

****************************************

Age: 19 as of June 2

****************************************

Favorite color: I actually don't know. I like colorful things. Basically I'm like a bird when it comes to colors.

****************************************

Favorite numbers: 4, 16, 394.

****************************************

Works: Cashier at the dining center/market on my campus. I work with nice people and get free food. It's been good.

****************************************

Likes: Reading, writing, receiving compliments, drawing, listening to music, complaining, skiing, making people laugh, Harry Potter, dark chocolate, Ben and Jerry's, changing peoples' computer backgrounds to weird random stuff while they're not looking, epic soundtracks that motivate me.

****************************************

Hates: Any sort of stinging insect, that awkward moment when there's an inside joke and I don't get it. Any awkward moment at all, really. Also early-morning exams and 9-hour work shifts.

****************************************

Interesting facts: I have color-changing eyes. They go between blue and gray, and I actually have a couple pictures to prove this. I collect fortune cookie fortunes, chapsticks, and paper books, because I'm afraid they may soon go out of print. Also, I recently found out about a rare phenomenon that occurs in some peoples' brains when they hear certain sounds or perceive certain things. It's called ASMR, and it triggers a tingling sensation that spreads from the head to the limbs. I have had this all my life and it's really cool, but I never knew it was an official thing or that it was rare until this year.

****************************************

My current obsessions: Jody Mills and just Supernatural in general, dyeing my hair multiple colors so that I feel like a dragon, staying up all night reading the weirdest fanfiction I can find while wondering what I am doing with my life, making sure I eat enough protein, ASOIAF (the show's not half as good as the books and I'll fight you on this, but I'm also obsessed with the soundtrack), any quote by GLaDOS, basically anything about Portal really, creepers from Minecraft, and this Game of Thrones fanvid.

****************************************

Favorite Manga/anime: Black Butler by far. Sebastian's been my only anime crush.

****************************************

Some stuffs about me: First and foremost, I'm a writer and storyteller. Of all the things that have changed in my life, that's been a constant and I'm pretty sure it always will be. I'm also an artist and a calligrapher. I like to read beyond reason and when I'm into a very good book I won't notice if my current dwelling falls down around me. I'm a passionate skier. I love nature and hope to live in a place with a lot of forests, mountains, or ocean later in life. I'm pretty weird and can also be kinda awkward......yeah. I really like random facts and tidbits of information. Always open to new suggestions about books, anime, manga, TV shows, etc. Always open to talk or just listen to anyone who needs to vent.
And I love bacon. A lot. Probably too much.

Welcome to the labyrinth that is my life.

stoned sharks or something like that

So guess who had to work in food service on 4/20? In a college dining hall?

These people are like extremely stoned sharks and I am so very tired.

Update

So a while back I was posting about an abusive friend. Tonight one of my other friends confronted her, but she apparently refused to listen. It had to happen, but if things don't change this friendship has to be over. And that's sad, because it was very good once. All I really have to say on the topic. It's just weird how these things work out. I hate that this is happening.

At some point

At some point one of the RAs is gonna gather us all up and as who keeps turning the bathroom pink.

And I'm gonna be in the back trying to be inconspicuous with my bright pink hair.

Think once this starts to fade I'll get some diagonal red stripes going...maybe.

Update

About the abuse post before. Have friends on my side. Also got an explanation for why they haven't stood up for me. They wanted to, but thought I was really close with this person (I was, but she's changed) and they didn't want to make things awkward or cause drama. Turns out we all feel a little abused (but they agree she targets me above the others) and we have agreed to stick up for each other to her if it comes to it. Feeling confused and sad but a lot better for having validation and support.

Sorry I'm never online. School stress. :P

You do not deserve to be abused

You know, it probably says something about my life, how emotional I get when someone tells me that I don't deserve to take abuse. And that I am valued.

And in case you haven't heard it, or haven't heard it enough, I'm passing that message on in any way I can.

So, yeah, to everyone reading this, you are valuable as a human being and you do not deserve to be abused. There will be people in your life who will hurt you, and there will be people in your life who tell you that you've earned it. There will be people who do both, again and again.

I just want to say that they're wrong, in case there's anyone reading this who doesn't get to hear it. You do not deserve to be hurt. You may choose to stay silent when you are, either because you think you do feel like you deserve it or because you don't enjoy the confrontation. For me, it tends to be a combination of the two.

And that's your choice, but what matters is that you know this person is wrong to do what they are doing, even if they tell you that they're not, that you deserve it. You don't. Their behavior reflects on them and not on you. You do not have to believe an abuser, and you are worthy of respect.

That is all.
