if it makes you feel any better in my asian religion class, i was really tired, and my professor asked us what the most important book in the hindu religion is and i was so tired and i said
the kama sutra
and now everyone in the class thinks im a weird retard
so....

high fives

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

i'll say it once and i'll probably say it a thousand times OTHER PEOPLE'S SUFFERING NEVER MAKES ME FEEL ANY BETTER
but i appreciate this story nonetheless
i promise i've done and said much weirder when half-awake and prompted
i think it's a rite of passage

[garfieldlogan.livejournal.com]

hahah i meant it as i'm pretty sure everyone
says weird and awkward things

[olesia]

The trick that works for me is to just roll with it. Even if it means actually saying "WOW I'M A DUMBASS."

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

I think my method is to make belittling remarks about myself and sputter into a mumble until the awkward pause passes and everyone moves onto a new subject

omg seriously olesia


girl: well i guess since we did that you should show us your drawings *stares at me
me: *TOTALLY OFFGUARD* WHAT WHY..
girl: because?
me: but they're not...they're not really THEY'RE CARTOONS
girl: SO?
me: oh uh *rifle* um...HERE? *hands book over kinda
girl: ...
me: ...*retracts....sSHARES PAGES LIKE STORYTIME??

[okura-chan.livejournal.com]

I'd be your friend if I saw your drawings.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

but i don't want to have friends for JUST that reason

[okura-chan.livejournal.com]

Well that and you're awesome.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

just because of the drawing? SEE IDK
BEING A CONVENIENCE ITEM IS OKAY NOW AND THEN BUT I'D LIKE SOME OF THESE CONNECTIONS BE HAVE A BIT MORE DEPTH THAN JUST "OH I'M FRIENDS WITH THAT GIRL BECAUSE SHE DRAWS REALLY WELL"
i do not have this problem online
it is this real life and 3d dimension that proves troublesome

[okura-chan.livejournal.com]

I'd probably ask stuff about the drawings (if I had the nerve), find out how awesome you are, and try to ask some more stuff about anything. But there'd be long intervals in between because I'm shy.

[olesia]

see this is where you need to use FAKE CONFIDENCE until people believe you are ACTUALLY CONFIDENT and then suddenly you HAVE CONFIDENCE??

come here i will bully you into making friends

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

IS VIOLENCE REALLY THE ANSWER?

[olesia]

IT'S NOT VIOLENCE IT IS ALL VERBAL ABUSE

WELL-INTENTIONED VERBAL ABUSE

IT'S GOOD FOR YOU PROMISE

[okura-chan.livejournal.com]

It'll be okay, Elle! I believe in you!!

I don't exactly have any friends in a class I don't know anyone in though it's week 8..

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

I WANT TO MAKE FRIENDS SOBS
BUT I DON'T WANT TO BE HOKEY OR FAKE TO DO IT

[okura-chan.livejournal.com]

Yeah. That's a point. That's why I love class in linguistics or Japanese classes. It's a lot easier for me to connect with them while being myself. Even if I'm weird, I find that everyone else is to so it's allll good.

BUT GOOD LUCK.

[sabbato.livejournal.com]

You'll be fine, Elle!

Making friends isn't easy. BUCK UP AND GO FOR IT. I totally believe in you.

[noelleno.livejournal.com]

THIS TIME WITH THE RIGHT ICON MOTHERFUCKER

[ankeelv2.livejournal.com]

CAN'T BE ANY WORSE THAN MY HISTORY CLASS

where it was so crowded and noisy and the prof was making everyone talk to someone they hadn't known

and this girl is like "MY NAME IS ---EN" and I'm like "what." And she keeps repeating it and I keep not catching it and we all sit down and have to talk about who we met. And when it gets to me I'm like "SO THIS IS CHEN."

"...actually it's Jen."

"....oh. Right. H-haha. Jen. Yes. Indeed. Quite. Ah."

[thanoodles.livejournal.com]

what happened

[theliel.livejournal.com]

"there's a time and a place for everything children. It's called college"

Sadly the set of {Everything} includes figuring out how to interact with strangers.

But don't feel too bad, I'm sure that 99% of the people I was at EMU with though of me as "Creepy old beard guy."

I still think you're cool and obviously that is what matter Yes/YES?

[rawowner333.livejournal.com]

if it makes you feel any better, i haven't talked to ANYONE here....so you're doing a hell lot better than me. :\

*is totally opposite of icon*
