February 2013- Rose Colored Glasses

When Jay first told me that he was “seasoned” in mind reading I honestly didn’t know how to react. I was sure that mind readers did exist to some extent, I mean I can’t count how many times I’ve called a friend in their time of need because I could sense it… but he was speaking a level that I don’t think I was ready to comprehend.

This part is hard for me to explain because if you didn’t experience it, there really is no way to put it into words but I’m going to try my best.

There were times where Jay and I would Skype and suddenly it would sound like he was having a conversation with himself. It would go something like this:

*Silence*

Him: “Yeah? Is that what you think?”

Me: *Silent but smiling*

Him: “cut off shorts? Really?”

Me: *Confused, but still silent and still smiling*

Him: “Tell me more.”

This would go on for about 10 minutes until he would either stop talking or I would interrupt with… changing the subject? I wasn’t sure how to react in the situations. The first time this happened I knew, I KNEW, that something was wrong but I ignored it. Flags were flying all over the place and my gut was telling me to get out of the situation but I was so caught up in the fact that I was involved with someone else who practiced the same things I did.

Jay thought he could do a number of things. Aside from his belief that he could hear my thoughts and have conversations with me telepathically. He also believed that he could see exactly what I was seeing through my eyes. Oh, and I can’t forget the fact that he believed he could teleport his physical body to wherever I was and often claimed that he would watch me sleep.

I know what you’re thinking. “HELLO!? How could you not have realized that something was not right?” I’ll tell you how, because as crazy as everything that I just said sounds, sometimes he was spot on...

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
