I go alone quite a bit: usually if I really want to see the movie and kinda focus on it; saw "Zero-Dark Thirty" alone, saw "Battle Royale" special East-Village Halloween showing with friends.

I liked the new Star Trek movie; yeah it's not brilliant or moving, but it a solid action flick. Thought it was better than…

I do this regularly around Oscar season because I can't always find someone else who wants to see all of the best picture films. it was definitely awkward the first few times... Only now it's oddly freeing. Just keep doing it!

I don't go terribly often, but I like seeing movies alone. At the very least, I find it less intimidating than eating by myself. In the dark, I don't feel like everyone is looking at me: I tell myself they're there to watch the screen, not me. My biggest hurdle was always asking for a single ticket, but with automated…

Here Comes Treble!

I have problems with that inner voice too! If you're going to take a little trip (and it sounds like you deserve it), plan out and pay in advance for everything you can, like your hotel. I'll even buy gas station gift cards before a trip so fill-ups are paid in advance too. Then give yourself a daily budget, with a…

I have no idea if I'm into K-Pop but I'm loving that song! Who is it and what's it called?

my vintage shop

I'll sign up for that!

Oh I wish that I had Uncle Sam's girl.

"Smilers?"

There's nothing like struggling with math your whole life and being treated like a lazy piece of shit by teachers who just want to write you off- and not do their jobs. I yelled at a teacher for doing something along the same lines once- and there was discussion about expelling me.

this is what they sound like:
"WHEEEEEEEE SPork spork spork!"

Is anyone else on their way to the pet store to buy a guinea pig?

How do you break up/get over a relationship where you recognize that the person is absolutely awesome, you are attracted to them romantically and sexually, AND you share common goals/interests, but you just seem to bring out the worst in each other? You know how they say love is all about making the other person a…

Yes! I just want a v-neck that won't become transparent after 3 washings. Why is that so hard?

Yes, this is a HUGE pain. Maybe if I had bra-optional breasts, it wouldn't bug me so much, but I don't, and having to wear THREE layers all the time is fucking annoying.

I have this same problem only with a coworker (we're 2 out of 3 employees so there's a lot of interaction). It's so bad that I'm absolutely physically and mentally exhausted at the end of the day because I end up doing the work of two people. Any sort of confrontation scares the shit out of me, so I've never told my…

So I'm starting a new job in a week as a waitress, and it's at a fancy resort restaurant. At previous jobs where I had to have my hair up I've always just put it in a ponytail or occasionally french braided it, but I'd like to do something a bit more. Anyone know of any hair styles where your hair is up? I also have…

Just got dumped by my boyfriend of 5 months. He says that he cares deeply about me, but doesn't feel like we have a long-term future together. Sorry for the self-indulgent post, but I could use some Jezzy love. Hope y'all had a good weekend! xoxo

The thing about YA literature is that adolescents want to read books that reflect how they think and feel, not books that are written the way they write.
