disappointment is a dreadfully tricky thing--
it lures you out to sea until the waves crash over you
and you sink, down, down, down. 
never to be heard from again.




i will rise from the murky depths and claim myself once more.

 
today was good until just now and then it wasn't because i got results back from this personality/test thing that i had to do to apply to schools and it didn't work out and it's like if you are going to test me and my ethics and ideals and such, don't make me do stupid multiple-choice stuff that doesn't even make sense, get to know me and talk to me. i promise i take initiative and i am interesting and i work well in teams. right? well that's what i tell myself. sigh. now i'm crying. i guess the disappointment is good, though. i knew everything was too good to be true. i will be okay and get back up because that's what i do and it's a lot but i will and i have to. anyway. sorry for the ramble. hope ur day is going well!

    I'm sorry too... Like Sci-Fi said, personality tests suck. They can't define you. You are special and a computer can't decide that.

    Also, I noticed you're a SAL fan! Me too!! Have you heard their Enneagram album?

    I'm sorry... personality tests suck dont they? Just remember you are kind and smart and unique and an incredible writer, and a little computer doesn't know crap about you. Sending hugs <3

    :(( i'm so sorry *virtual hugs* you're so strong and resilient but remember that sometimes it's okay to let yourself be disappointed. its okay to be sad, it doesn't make you weak or shallow. if you ever need to rant or cry on my *virtual* shoulder, i'm always here for you. we love you, no matter what any personality test thinks you are like.
    also, this piece just took my breath away. you're insanely amazing, and your poetry is beautiful! <33 wow <333

    Aw that sounds awful! I'm sorry sweetheart. But if it makes you feel better, this is a heck of a little quote of a piece. I love short poetic blurbs like this.
