Awkward
-working out in the weight room at school when it's clogged with an almost-exclusively male class...all these guys are lifting 50lb+ weights, and you and your partner are like, "I can bench-press the 45lb bar...with no weight added..."
-people liking to stand in front of your locker, and you always having to be like "excuse me, pardon me, PLEASE MOVE."
-sick people at work who cough a lot while they're standing close to you, so you try to simultaneously be involved in their conversation and not breathe.
-being so tired/deep in thought that when someone talks to you, you flinch and look at them like they slapped you in the face.
-small talk.
-going from fitness class to math in 10 minutes and therefore always looking like a sweaty tomato when you sit down
-having to wade through ankle deep water on your way down the street in the morning, because it's been so warm lately and all the snow's been melting.
-people finding out that you were homeschooled, and then asking the dreaded question... "so, did you have, like, friends? Ever? You know what those are, right?"(exaggeration, but only slightly.)
Awesome
-having a desk partner who brings cookies to class
-beautiful sunrises and icicle-caked tree branches
-going out for coffee before youth group, and remembering HOW GOOD it is to be with old friends again
-riding the bus. I don't even know why, but I just love the bus.
-cucumbers
-Downton Abbey! (just finished season 4, spoil away.) (just kidding, please don't. that's not cool.)
-the guy who sits in front of you in math letting you put your feet on the back half of his chair. for the whole class.
-starting a new journal! (it's turquoise and has a clasp. A CLASP.)
-going to see Mackenzie over March Break!
I've been realizing lately just how many awkward and awesome things happen in my life (although I totally blanked when I tried to write this post.) What weird and wonderful happenings have you endured this past week?
