I just submitted my transfer app to COA. I’m still not feeling particularly relieved, but… that’s done.
I’m trying very hard to ignore that this, um, dress I love that I thought was sold out is now listed again on final sale. fuuuuuuu

Typing from phone
Thoughts for depression. Feeling like I want to vomit feelings, which are hollow themselves… Sylvia took baths but my tub is blue and I only feel comfortable taking a shower on it. It is barely Tuesday and I feel like choking back snot under covers sobbing, or breathing less. Dependant on others to buoy my emotions, how despicable, maybe I should not go to school in the fall, can I just lie...
I am nearly done with my application essays. I am very tired with explaining the circumstances of last spring. I am scared.
It would be ideal to live in the Amy’s frozen dinners factory. It must smell so good.

In my quest to discover what ails my sensitive belly, for now I am calculating that (too much) caffeine does make me sick. So, it is with much satisfaction that I purchase some decaffeinated Earl Grey, and, to boot, I’ve sweetened it with a bit of the lavender syrup I made just the other day. It smells heavenly. I feel like a goddess.

I tried the homemade lavender soda at Hillbilly Tea a couple of days ago, and now I’m making lavender syrup at home, hoping it’ll work out. I’m trying the simplest recipe first.

Comforting Thoughts
I’m not quite sure what to think of these “Famous People With Your Personality Type!” lists, but it can be kind of inspiring.
Annie Dillard, whose novel An American Childhood I am now reading and enjoying, is allegedly an INFP, and so was Laura Ingalls Wilder, author of my favorite series of books as a girl, Little House on the Prairie.
There’s also a list of fictional...

This house is maddening!
I get distracted by reflections off of this laptop screen.
Why haven’t the two professors I contacted about writing me letters of recommendation responded to me yet, in any form?!
I haven’t eaten enough today.
And Wii Zumba songs are stuck in my head. Phooey.
AHHHHH. AH. AH. AH.

I am trying to get myself addicted
to endorphins. But see, I’ve always been terribly athletically inept and very self-conscious about this. I’m also hyperaware of my body’s aches and pains—I have lower back pain a lot (because I actually do have mild scoliosis), my left knee is not happy ever when I run, and… rib subfluxation when running, oh, so painful.
But! In light of this!

I'm an INFP.
I also have just learned that INFP-ers are overly represented in the populations of people suffering from depression and people with ADD. Curious!

Erica is super cool. She’s thinking about becoming a hippie.
Contrary to popular belief, I suppose, adopting hippie-like practices gives me a greater sense of fulfillment, purpose, and control. Becoming a hippie is good for my mental health.
