Perfection sound lovely

The Jumbled Perfectionist
The Odyssey

Why does it feel like the world is spinning in a thousand different ways? Why does it feel that life as we know it may be a compete lie. I am experiencing this right now, in the present day due to how many places I work at and how many hours I am working; or maybe its just everything all at once? I don't know if maybe I thought my superpowers are greater than I realized they were? Maybe I am just worried about being a disappointment to people or maybe I just don't want to disappoint myself?

The idea of disappointing other people makes my soul unhappy. I feel like I am not being the perfectionist that I expect myself to be. Why do I expect myself to be perfect? To be honest I don't really know. I just have extremely high standard for myself. I want to be perfect! It's almost like I need to be perfect. Maybe because I don't want to disappoint my parents, or maybe it's because I don't want to disappoint my dead brother, or maybe I just don't want to be an imperfect human. But, in reality we are all imperfect humans.

Maybe its my thoughts being so jumbled tonight. Or, maybe I am just extremely into being a perfectionist. But, I need to not be so hard on myself and just remember I am still human after-all.

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.
