"[Growing up] is hard and nobody understands." // https://www.homestuck.com/story/2391

Woke up early around 8:30, had breakfast with Sasha and Shruti. Made some coffee.

Swung by Social Sciences 2's Anthropology Library to do my game design Critical Writing Assignment, from 2:30 to 4:30. Still cozy. Need to hit up more study spots!

Had dinner early around 6:15, in case I wanted to prep a present and swing by Mubashir's birthday at the Witches Circle. (Didn't attend.) Sat with some semi-familiar people from the Instagram group chat but I went stone cold anxious silent when the conversation turned to gym and working out. My nervousness got so bad I actually lost my appetite near the end and excused myself citing nonexistent homework. I guess it wasn't too too bad seeing they actually said bye, but I just felt so blah. Really a stark contrast to Joey's drinking game, and the Superbowl watch party. Sasha wound up asking me later back up at dorm around 9:30 about it and I waved it off. I should've stood up for myself more at dinner, and to their lack of intervention. Goal: Don't wait on people to introduce me or ease me into a convo; I've got to do it myself.
