Eyyyy!

I'm currently wearing my shiny but soft blue pants and my favorite shirt. Both of which are hand-me-downs from my parents because that's what happens when you're the oldest and really like baggy clothes.

@Simon-Says

Yeeeessss. I'm like the only one in my family that gets new clothes often, because my little sister HATES shopping with a passion, and my mom… well, she buys cool shirts and socks. I keep stealing her shirts cause she has awesome ones.

@ElderGod-kirky group

My parents go through their clothes every so often and just hand me a pile of clothes–my dad gives me shirts–that don't fit them anymore. I usually take the shirts, and I'll take some of my mom's pants. She's just a tad bigger than I am, so that makes it a little difficult. But they usually have some sort of string to adjust the waist.

@Simon-Says

Yeah my mom has the comfiest clothes plus I keep "borrowing" her jewelry cause she doesn't like it but she has a lot so I'm like… ehehehe MINE

@ElderGod-kirky group

Jewelry is a no go for me, as is makeup. I know–I'm not a true girl–but I don't give two shits. My ears don't like foreign objects touching them, I hate the feeling of stuff of my lips, rings get annoying, and so do necklaces. Bracelets are eh.

@Simon-Says

Nah fam, you can totally be a true girl without being "girly." I tried makeup for a while, but after a while it made me feel like my face was caked, which was uncomfortable, so now I just occasionally wear lipstick or if I didn't get any sleep then I'll put on a bit of concealer so I don't look like the walking dead. Most of the reason I wear rings is so I can fidget with them, and same for bracelets. Necklaces are the only things I wear just because I can.

@ElderGod-kirky group

I just don't really care about how I look to other people. Tbh, I feel like a potato most of the time, but I know makeup won't fix anything. I just don't have the face for makeup–or the patience. This is going to sound weird, but I fidget with my own fingers, or a pencil if I have it in my hand, or I'll run my thumb back and forth over the edge of my phone case, or I'll mess with a book page. I fidget a lot. I sometimes just…hold my wrists or tuck my hands under my legs to trick my body into thinking I'm doing something. Weird, yes, but it's what I do.

@Simon-Says

Oof yeah I feel you. I'm honestly surprised I haven't broken my mechanical pencils cause I twist them SO MUCH I just don't understand how they haven't broken yet.

@ElderGod-kirky group

SAAAAAMME
I have one of those pencils where the eraser is really long and twists up and down. I twist it all the time, and it's a miracle that none of them have broken. Especially considering my track record for breaking things. Side eyes the pile of stuff I've broken just by touching it

@Simon-Says

Omg mood. I just use the ones with the regular eraser, but I twist the crap out of it. I don't even understand why but I can't stop now.

@Simon-Says

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I love using mechanical pencils for drawing cause their erasers work really well usually, but I'm always too lazy to go find the ones with an appropriate amount of eraser so then… I just have A LOT of pencils. Like, an inhuman amount of pencils. I think you can get arrested for having this many pencils.

@ElderGod-kirky group

lmao, I feel you. The thing is, though, I usually run out of led before I run out of eraser. So then I have to buy new pencils so I can get the small cases of led. Ah, the hard life of a doodler…

@Simon-Says

Ooh, yeah. Same. So I was planning on filling up a notebook with doodles, just any kind of drawing, painting, scribbling, but then I stopped doing it, and I was going to continue, but then I was like… ahahahahaha. Ha. I can't draw.

@ElderGod-kirky group

If you look at my math notebook, you'll see how bored I get. There are so many doodles of random fantasy creatures and horribly rough character sketches. I still remember the one time last year, I had math 8th period and study hall 1st period. I sat in the back and mostly doodled, but still understood the lessons and did better than all the idiots in my class–they were all a year or two older than me. My teacher wanted to talk to me after class and I was confused for a sec, then panicky. Shit, he saw me drawing. Yes, he did see me. But he didn't care. He's like–"You barely pay attention in class and are still doing better than these morons. How'd you end up in this class?" We talked for a bit and I managed to switch my math and study hall, so I got to be with my friends and have an eighth-period study hall. Win-win.

@Simon-Says

Ayy, nice. Yeah my best friend and I have Geometry together, and literally neither of us pay attention, we just sit and read until the teacher gives us our assignment, and yet we're still the first ones done with everything. One time we were doing a worksheet, and there was something on it we hadn't learned yet, and we were like, guess she wants us to figure it out, so we looked up the formula and did it ourselves. The teacher told us 20 minutes later we didn't have to do that part, but… now it's too late. I am invincible.

@ElderGod-kirky group

I hate explaining. Especially something that's just common sense. Like, ???? How am I supposed to explain how I know something if I just know it???

@Simon-Says

Like, well you see, the purpose for me doing this is bECAUSE YOU FUCKING TOLD ME TO. And we had to use all those terms for everything, and they were all pretty much the same order like… can we just… not do that?

@Simon-Says

Yeah. I'm glad we finally moved past those. We're doing that graphing thing now, I forgot what it's called, but you have an equation like 2x+3y>6 and you have to turn it into y>-2/3x+2 and then graph it. It's SO MUCH BETTER than doing proofs.
