Thinking AC would save me went to the mall to spend time and watch the Odyssey except it didn't save me because everyone else is also here. Now it's crowded and hot
I've seen more communication and effort from my failing student today after he realized he is actually failing than rest of the semester combined

So apparently what's worse than having to do group work is to teach students who are doing group work. So much drama dude and for what
Metaphor really took over my life and as it should such a good game
Getting my pictures taken makes me so toxic about myself. I would never say half of the things I think about my body or my face at these times
Me a kid reading Odyssey: Cersei is so evil for turning men into pigs omg Me as an adult listening to EPIC: she is so valid for that
#Hades2 soundtrack’s quality sometimes ends up a detriment especially when you really really want to sing along to “I am gonna Claw out your eyes then drown you” in crowded public transportation
