Please Reserve Your Judgment Until After the Post

Today, someone I have never had a personal conversation with called me judgmental. I just couldn't believe it honestly. We know of each other. Our friends hang out in a group together, but the extent of our conversations have been homework and weekend plans.
Hearing this really bothered me. I have trouble getting close to people. It might seem like I just babble, but everything I tell people is carefully planned. He might think he knows things about me, but he doesn't know anything really. And then I started thinking, why would he think I'm judgmental? He knows I'm a Christian, I have never had a drink, never smoked, never done drugs, never had sex, never done a lot of things. But since when did having personal opinons mean you judged people who didn't hold the same opinions?
I think that's the great misconception the world holds today. It's dangerous. It's dangerous to believe that someone judges you because they don't do the things you do.

Time for myself

Make time for yourself and don't feel bad about it. This is the most important thing I've learned in the past few months. I live in a room in a suite on a hall in a dorm with hundreds of other people. I am a shy and awkward person who has never cared to spend a lot of time with tons of other people. Give me my two best friends, and I'm happy. Lately living with so many girls is making me die a little inside. I'm easily annoyed and frustrated. I've been extremely bitchy to everyone, and I like it. I like being opinionated and defiant. I like not caring what people care, because I don' t need people. I learned a long time ago that I can be by myself and be all right. In fact, I usually like being alone more than I like being with someone else. That doesn't mean I don't want a relationship. I want one, but I don't need one. I don't know if that means I'll have better luck when I finally find the right guy. But maybe it means I'll know myself better when I am in a relationship. So this past week I've been holed up in my room doing the things I want to do, and I'm sure my antisocial behavior will continue this week. So today I'm headed outside to write that book I've always wanted to write, and I'm going to love every second by myself. Anyway this is absolutely nowhere near where I was planning to have this post go, but I guess I can rant about that bitch later.
