I find that whenever I have school or any type of stress that might bog me down, I become a hermit, a recluse. I don't like seeing people, don't like talking to them, and when I do, it's short, sweet and to the point. I take after my parents. It doesn't help that I'm not that social to begin with, I enjoy being by myself, doing my own thing. So stress, on top of this predisposition to be a hermit, makes me disappear.
But this is no good. This is not how people are supposed to be. It's easy to say, "oh, that's just the way I am, that's how my personality is." That's an excuse, an easy way to neglect responsibilities and neglect friends. I can't tolerate it anymore. I'm starting to see some of my relationships deteriorate because I'm not investing in them. This must stop.
STOP. In the name of love, before you break my heart... love it. there's a song for every occasion.
