My body's like "boi you need to eat" and I'm like "jfc dude I just ate not that long ago you can wait like another hour" but my body won't listen rip
Also this is a perfect time to go to bed at a decent time and get some good sleep but I insist on staying up til 1am lookin at Super Mario Odyssey stuff on Pinterest xDDD
Just when I found something interesting to watch, something happens and all YouTube videos refuse to play. This time the internet connection isn't to blame either.
My leg makes it very uncomfortable to sit in chairs...
I have a huge brace on my left leg, going from my upper-middle thigh all the way down to a few inches above my ankle, to immobilize my knee and keep it sturdy. Absolutely 100% necessary and helpful, since my knee is still recovering from my injury and is pretty weak right now. But boy does it make it hard to do general stuff. Especially sitting. I can't bend my knee, so I either have to sit on the edge of the chair (which often makes my leg go numb), sit all the way on the chair with my leg propped up, or just sit super awkwardly in the chair.
Also it'd be gr8 if I could bend my left knee farther than 55 degrees... I've come quite a ways from 20 degrees, but it's still annoying.

Oh, it was awful; I felt quite uncomfortable there. You know, I try to include everyone. I don't like leaving a person out. I wish you'd have done the same for me.
I love helping others. But if you don't want it, just say so. These kinds of events build up enough to where people can find it difficult to continue being a good person in general. Not going to stop of course, but good Lord.

Also, I leave in less than a week. Again, as much as I can barely tolerate your family, my heart already aches at the thought of me going back home...
Wouldn't even feel like home anymore. Home is where you are.
My roommate and I have been spending copious amounts of time together. We had this little falling out sometime last week and for the past two days we haven't been speaking to each other. It's almost like it's a contest of who could act like they care less. It is so awkward to be home because we basically avoid each other, I'll be away from the house the entire day until late so when I return they will already be in their room for the night which is further avoiding.
I have tried talking about it with them several times because I feel that communication is healthy and necessary but this person gets very uncomfortable when it comes to talking about feelings/problems so while I get to tell them how I am feeling to gain an understanding of each other (I invite them to talk about themselves too so I can learn) they are uncomfortable the entire time. It's not dramatic or emotionally charged at all and I tell people how I feel because I realize that people can't read minds.
In my experiences I have noticed that most people would rather avoid conflict or problems than face them and I face my problems so I can put it past me and treat it as a learning experience.
What I don't understand at all is that my roommate and I are still learning each other, meaning that we do not know each other too well to be like: Oh that's John being John (as an example)
So there would be a learning curve happening, which is why you communicate misunderstandings to gain understanding.
No matter what I do I feel like I am completely striking out and hitting a wall with this person. What is also very interesting to me is that every time we have spent time together it was by their initiation. Later they revealed that they felt obligated to hang out with me because I suggested that we hang out a little more often? I am highly extroverted and this person is introverted which is fine and dandy. I do not mind this at all. I realize that there are plenty of differences between us which I personally think are quite complimentary.
But I would never want anyone to feel like they have to spend time with me. I told them that that conversation was an invitation to spend more time together and to connect. I told them simply because I care and I like spending time with them. They said "well maybe you shouldn't care so much."
They don't understand my need to talk issues out. To talk things through. They don't understand it and they said they probably never will.
I asked if there was anything I could do to be more understanding about their nature and they said that they didn't know and that there was probably nothing I could do.
I told them that I am trying my hardest, putting myself out there and trying to understand. They said: 'well don't try too hard then.'
