Stupid things people say

I'm writing this post about two people, myself and a classmate. First, I should know better than to post snarky comments on Facebook about classmates when they do not know me well enough to know that I snark with love. So, drunken frat boy, comment was made with the best of intentions. And really, you were doing a funny face in the background of the pic thing that 2nd graders do. You set yourself up for some snark by being a stealth snark yourself. Anyhow, Facebook is not my personal little playground-- everyone plays in that sandbox!

I was heading to class today and stopped in the court yard to read (err, gchat) right before class. As soon as I read 1 page, it was time to go to class. I ended up mentioning that I hadn't read for class and another girl said something like right on because she hadn't read either. Well, she got called on in class. From what I heard come out of her mouth (don't really remember cause I don't really pay attention), it sounded like she did, in fact, do the reading. Maybe not all of it (Prof. aimed his line of questioning at her neighbor when she failed to continue coming up with answers). Why did she tell me she didn't do the reading? Was she laughing at me in her head for not doing it? I certainly was not encouraging anyone to not do their reading (I'm totally against not reading, kinda). Stupid shit like that makes me not trust people.

Perhaps it is my personal problem with suspicion. I haven't seen any daggers come out yet, but we are getting close to finals. In all honesty, I do not think that this person likes me -- we never talk. So when we do talk and she lies to me I just have to think that it was malicious. This is why I do not study with anyone and will talk about stuff until I am blue in the face but generally leave school stuff out of it.

I'm going to put a string around my finger and hopefully I can remember to do a better job of keeping my business to myself. And to not say stupid things. Hopefully.
