Action Potentials (we got chemistry)

Giving potential a face is scary. Either one day I'll scream your name, or I'll curse it. Each will give you the power to control my emotions and that alone fills me with fear.

I always have this issue

I start seeing a guy who is everything I could want, and I'm just not that into him. I'm all about passion, and that cheesy nonsense. If there are no butterflies, no getting excited when my phone goes off because it might be him, no wishing for his presence when he's not around, then why am I going to settle for less? If it's not all consuming, burning, passionate love, then what's the point? And why can't I feel that for someone who has all the qualities I'm looking for? I hate me sometimes.

insecurity

It’s a dark cave that seems to swallow me alive. Confused. Why am I feeling this way...

I hope I can blame this on hormones because I don’t know how much longer I can survive like this. So many other things on my plate to worry about...I need to reprioritize my life.

toxic people.

when you realize your true worth and decide to leave people that don't deserve you out of your life... It's going to be a good day. Appreciate who you have and those that truly care for you and don't take it for granted. And if your taken for granted, take a stand and let those people go.

Woke up at 5. Yesterday it was 7. Why is this happening to me.

Too often, I observe what others do during class time (college) and I find it fascinating that about 90% of students are glued to their phones, probably scrolling through some social network (like this one) and paying absolutely no attention to the lecture. Admittedly, too often, I am one of those students. I listen for about 3 minutes and immediately reward myself with 10 minutes of Instagram scrolling. I tell myself I can multitask, I can actually subconsciously listen while scrolling and retain all the info, but ask me anything about it afterwards and I will give you vague responses, if any at all. I know I'm not alone in this; I've witnessed it. Classrooms have an overpowering aura of general apathy, and it's contagious. We find comfort in knowing that the person sitting next to us is also uninterested in what the professor has to say. And once the lecture is finished, we all let out gasps of relief and proceed to repeat the same process in the following class. What do we gain out of this? Why are we so entrapped by these social networks that offer nothing but momentary ego boosts, occasionally funny cat memes, and devoid us from engaging in potentially mentally stimulating class discussions which might be beneficial in the long-run? Imagine how fruitful and interactive and maybe FUN classes would be if we all actively contributed to discussions. Perhaps this is my misdirected guilt because I just realized I am a junior and I don't even remember the names of some of the courses I've taken. But in any case, this whole "idgaf" trend that breeds apathetic, zombie-like, Internet brainwashed fiends needs to be stopped. You all have minds than can process, integrate, and store thousands of sensory details but you choose to consume its memory space on useless things like Twitter!?!? (I am yelling at myself too). I don't know man but we need an intellectual revolution. Bring on the book-savvy hipsters.
