When it hurts you, it hurts you so good

Today I am being made aware of all the missed encounters. Craigslist calls them "missed connections." Craigslist makes me laugh.

Back to the topic at hand. I'm sitting in Starbucks in the library on campus, coffee-less, as the empire that controls the food on campus is ridiculously expensive. So I'm sitting here and I'm watching all of the people that go by, and it's crazy to me that in all of these opportunities, there is no encounter. Most people don't even acknowledge when you look at them, let alone open themselves up to the possibility of a conversation with a stranger. I always hear people complain about how they wish that we, as a society, weren't so disconnected. Yet we perpetuate that disconnect. What are we doing to connect besides complain?

Random thoughts that I tried to make sense of.

I got distracted by a girl in a skirt and Uggs. Need I say more?

I am the thief of hearts, guilty of the charge

How is it already October? Where has this year gone?

I'm missing the season change tonight. I miss seeing the leaves change, and the drop in temperature. Especially the drop in temperature.

Graduation is soon approaching and I'm no closer to knowing what I'm doing than I was when I first started college. Yay!

I'm pretty sure this guy likes me, and the feeling is just not mutual. Not that there's anything wrong with him, I'm just not attracted to him.

I feel scatterbrained tonight. Actually, I've felt like that a lot this week.

I've been spending money like it's going out of style. I really need to stop.

I'm tired, but can't sleep.
