I am so sick of shallow people. I think it may just be that I'm in an all-girls dorm in an almost-all girls school and there's so much estrogen that everybody's decided to get bitchy. I'm so sick of the girly-girls, although I'm more sick of the ones that rate the others on campus. They generally start with the women. Rating them, their personalities, clothes, hair, the way they walk talk flirt and belch. I hate it. But it's not just that they rate the girls. They move on...they rate the men too until there's nothing left but the skeleton.
The bones of who someone is. Bones tell no tales...they all look the same, for the most part. You can make tools out of bone and spear things.
We're adults now. This isn't high school. I didn't expect this from here. I thought that because I was going to a school that was "known for it's academic excellence" that I would be surrounded by other intellectuals looking to quench a thirst for thought. I assumed that because it was expensive, yet very good with scholarships, that most people would have earned their way in. I thought that I would be challenged and inspired everyday. I thought that it would mean my mind would be stretched to new levels, my imagination taking new strides and I thought I would find myself in the best place I could be.
I searched everywhere. There is no such place. I am the only one. I'm the only one who likes being a nerd. I'm the only one.
Maybe I'm just the only freshman like that. I've talked to some upperclassmen and they're not so bad. They're all off campus though. I need to figure out how to make friends off campus. I need to find a job off campus. That's the only way. Getting off campus as much as possible. Bleh. But I'm glad. I don't like people. I don't like people who say one thing and do another. I don't like people who act all nice and then turn out to be bitchy. Likewise, I don't like mean people who use their meanness as a defense mechanism. Be what you are!
I don't like people who act like they like you, then act like they don't give a rats. I don't like people who say they want to keep in touch but don't exchange emails. I don't like people who see things only their way, and not the way of everyone. I think it has to do with the money here. I think it has to do with everything. Should I stay or should I go now?

Totally in agreement here. At my school there isn't a dorm, but I'm the ONLY girl in my class, and going from my age to 30 everyone that I have met in college is pretty much the same way when your around them all the time.
One thing I've learned to do is try to surround yourself in people like you. Then it doesn't seem so bad.
