The dichotomy between the need for independence and the need to be taken care of .

Recently, I really do not want a SO, I really just want a person to take care of me. Like call me to ask me if I am alright, text me to see that I am alive, understand me, pamper me. Hear me crib.  Pick me up, drop me. Really that is it. I don’t want anything else, Just concern. I feel I keep on taking care of other people, ensuring that they reached home safely or that they are emotionally alright, that they have eaten ot if they are ill then they are taking their medicines on time. I generally do not expect anything in return. But I am just so tired these days, plus I am so emotional. I really just want to be held tightly. I want someone to focus their entire existence on me but at the same time I do not want to be smothered which eventually ends up happening. I saw this guy going to pick up his daughter on the bus stand and I missed my dad or anyone like that who could come and pick me up.  I then talked to my dad in the  night and I felt so pissed at him asking me all these invasive question about why I work late and how I should come home early and then I realized that this was the concern I have craving for but when I get it I get annoyed. I want to be pampered and taken care of but at the same time I just want to be left alone and be independent. I am so confused and so conflicted about what I want from life. I think what that NGMA hottie old me true we just want to find ways to make ourselves miserable, humans are not in pursuit of happiness, they are in pursuit of misery. I wonder should I have taken his number or given him my correct number. 
I want someone to be insanely protective of me, to take care of me. I think the central theme of this entire piece is my insane need to be taken care of. I think I have romanticized this concept of being cared for way too much.  I mean think about it why else would someone else give up the independence she has been craving for since she was 9 and tie her wagon with someone else. I am pretty sure I have gone cuckoo and am having withdrawal symptoms from coffee yeah that  makes perfect sense, otherwise why would I regret not giving my number to that fuckboy. Yes, I am going to chalk this insanity to coffee withdrawal symptom. 

I could have been run over yesterday and no one would have realized for atleast six hour- 8 hours.

Percy jackson and the lighting theif

I found it very entertaining .the thing which i loved about the movie was the perfect balance between fiction & reality. also the story line was very refreshing and innovative. Also i'm very interested in Greek mythologial characters that too was a great plus point in the movie.

Nothing kills you like your mind

Okay so this another life changing moment for me, I just realize that more than half of the time I'm don't do things because of fear of failing, I have a very vivid imagination I can imagine the worse case scenario in very situation even when something good may have a chance of happening I just mess it up by thinking and overthinking it. Like right now I have this MUN coming up and trust me I have wanted to MUN for a very long time but now I'm really scared and because of that I'm making all these worst case scenarios in my mind about how I would suck. The problem with me is that I care, not too much, but still I do care enough to hesitate, and this is where I lose out on opportunities, but now I have decided I'm going to give up on this hesitation and not let my mind kill me slowly. I'm going to do what I like, how I like and when I like. I'm going to ask questions in class, participate in discussions and debates, volunteer alone if I have to, but I wo...

First fight with room mate

So it is generally accepted fact that it takes a lot to set me off, I mean people give examples of my patience, seriously they do, it is no exaggeration. But now enough is enough, so I had a fight with my room mate, well to be exact it was not really a fight, I shouted and she just walked out not that much exchange of words and stuff, but one gets the point it was a disagreement. So now there this kind of cold war kind of thing going on between us, where we are giving each other a cold shoulder, now I do know that I may have overreacted a bit but my initial reaction was completely justified. What is done is done, now it is time to move on, but the point of ego comes into play who is going to make the first contact, who is going to be the first one to bow down and talk? And frankly I don't mind being the first one at all.
