I feel like I’ve spent a lot of my life ridiculously concerned with being annoying, and I still felt unlikeable; now I’ve stopped caring as much, and it’s scary, but also I’m happy and I’m not hurting anyone !!! So be annoying !!! You’ll find your people who enjoy and love you !!! Fuck the rest !!!

everyone does it a little bit. most people are self aware to the extent that they try to avoid it. the people who don't avoid it are, well, abrasive a lot of the time, but i'm jealous of their freewheeling nature. to act without consideration to others and follow the socializing id is a trait resisted by many; i believe accepting one's innate annoying features is part of accepting oneself as a whole.
my annoying traits include posting too many things at once on a website and interrupting conversations with weird timings.

i often find myself wanting to be universally liked before i remember that actually, not only are there certain kinds of people that i don’t care about the opinions of, there are certain kinds of people who i actually *want* to dislike and resent me and i would be deeply uncomfortable being admired by.
when you’re expressing a part of yourself that you’re afraid might make people dislike you, consider: what is the sort of person who would dislike me because of this? would i want to associate with that kind of person? very occasionally the answer might be yes, but often you’ll find that as soon as you concretely imagine the sort of person who is alienated by you (or unconventional trait X), you will find that it’s the sort of person you don’t want to associate with anyways!
“be yourself” is not just good advice because it’s personally comforting - it’s also good advice because being yourself is a good way to filter out people from your life who aren’t ready for what you’re bringing to the table. stop thinking “do they wanna hang out with me” and start thinking “do i wanna hang out with them”

Last night I spent 5 hours with my friends in my living room instead of doing my work, and at first I thought “wow I was not productive tonight,” but then I realized that hanging out with friends and letting my mind rest is incredibly productive!! I feel so refreshed this morning

I’ve recently begun to think I’m extremely beautiful, something I’ve never consistently thought about myself. It feels so silly, and I’m sometimes baffled by it, but I’m also enjoying it a lot.

How lucky am I that I actually miss school when I’m at home, and miss home when I’m at school??? Being able to miss something, to look forward to returning, is such a privilege, and I will never take it for granted
