What is something that you strongly believe in? ○▪○▪○▪○

I hate when people read out loud what I have written. I cringe really hard where it physically hurts me. Even when I'm confident of what I have written!! I just tune out what they say but I still wince.

I want to learn Spanish so I can talk with customers who don't speak a lot of English. My store has a lot of Spanish speaking customers, way more than I expected for the area. I want to be able to have a conversation with them. Tell them important information. Understand what they're asking for if they don't have someone who speaks English with them. I think there's 4 employees in my store who speak Spanish fluently, and that's because they were raised in a Spanish speaking home. My company offers free Rosetta Stone after 3 months employment. I really want to use that now that I'm eligible. If I get promoted to manager one day, I want to be the one that can communicate with all of our customers. I took 3 years of Spanish in high school and don't remember any of it. I remember the numbers up to 100, basic colors, and the months. I can follow along with someone counting their money but that's about it. If someone needs to show their ID for alcohol or tobacco, I want to say it to them nicely, not just scream "ID! ID! Identification!" like my CSM did to someone who clearly didn't understand.

Most dreams are neither good nor bad. They're just weird. At least mine.

As a young child, I remember looking at myself in the mirror a lot. It wasn't because I thought I was good looking or ugly. I just sat in front of it and couldn't believe that the person I saw was me. I just observed myself. I ate in front of it and learned my quirks when i ate. Moving my hands around was amusing to me. Practing at talking was what i did the most. I later learned at school that facial expression was inportant. It made me practice them in front of the mirror. I am now able to control my face to be a blank slate or show an emotion very clearly. I still kinda practice in the mirror. Good times.

Recommend me your favorite song at the moment.

even if i dont feel like i am, i hope all the little girls out there know how priceless and beautiful they are, i hope they get told that everyday so if a day comes they wouldn't for a second answer to anyone and doubt their worthiness.

I think what people have to realize about victim blaming is that it isn't a discussion about whether the victim is to blame or not. Most of the time there are valid arguments in favour of this, actually. It at least is most often a mostly philosophical question that nobody can truly answer with yes or no. When they say victim blaming is bad then it isn't because what you say is completely untrue - it is bad because it tells people that committing the crime is okay. Saying she shouldn't have been drunk is saying you're allowed to rape drunk girls because it's her fault when she's raped, not the rapists fault. Saying you shouldn't take nudes if you don't want to get them leaked is telling a lot of boys that it's okay to spread nudes. I was assistant in a grammar school for a year and we had to do a lot of anti bullying workshops, and let me tell you, it was shocking to see how many of the kids seemed to realize for the FIRST time that it is not okay to bully someone because so often had they heard phrases like "if you don't want them to call you names then don't give them a reason to" or "but if you know they always hit you, why do you keep wanting to play with them?" Instead of "don't hit the kid"

Getiing my life back together begins with working out. Next is shower and studying.

So I have talked so much trash about Fortnite. My roommate plays it and I decided to give it a try for his birthday cuz he was always asking me to try it. I found myself actually having fun playing Fortnite and I'm not sure if I should feel ashamed or not 😅
