I have full-blown anxiety about timed tests. The pressure throws me.

^This. There’s racism, slut-shaming, pressuring a woman to quit working and have a baby already, and all sorts of stuff I rail against. But the town is beautiful. The characters are flawed and interesting. I can't get enough.

Oh, the noise blocking headphones thing would help immensely. My work suffers when I'm distracted. I can't even listen to music when studying or working.

My favorite vacation was a month in Hawaii last year. I don’t like ‘tourist Hawaii’, so we rented a house in the middle of nowhere.

When I see Robin Wright, I say a silent prayer to a god in which I do not believe that she has happiness, continued success, and makes a shit ton more money than disgusting (alleged) abuser and woman-hater Sean Penn. Idk why I have so much invested in this.

I know nothing about Hamilton, but everything about The Wire. I didn’t know that white people used it to try to talk to black people, though.

Check out “full-figured”. I’m going to relabel her body type as “average in an awkward pose and crazy ugly bathing suit”.
