Oh also, despite my bitter hatred towards all things related to English and History...I've discovered that I'm strangely obsessed with looking up words, terms, references, concepts, basically anything I don't know. I used to not care at all, but now, I feel physically uncomfortable if there is a single word I do not understand when I'm reading a book or a magazine or something. Same with references. I feel like the magazine columnists are sharing an inside joke and I get really frustrated. I just spent an hour looking up a list of maybe 100 words. Granted, I don't remember them at all, but at least I understood them momentarily. Actually, I'm not sure if I even did, but by looking them up I could check them off my mental list, so it made me feel better. ............
Maybe I should make a dictionary for myself so I can feel all accomplished and pretentious. Har har har.
I'm such a joke.
