Feminist Rant #2

Depending on the context, it would either be hilarious or incredibly sad.
A prevalent viewpoint held by a good number of people is that if a woman doesn’t mind putting out, she’ll put out for anyone.
Which is why today, it is still...
Il faut que j’apprenne mon français pour le test de jeudi, mais je suis trop paresse. Donc semaine prochain, mon résultats examens viendront. C’est très ennui et il a l’air d’appréhension.

Translation:
我必须背法语以星期四的测验，但我却太懒惰了。 此外， 下个星期，我的考试成绩会被宣布。这样是又无趣又一点忧虑。
为什么?为什么?为什么? 我不要!我不要!我不要!
How insensitive, I must have seemed, When he told me that he loved me, How unmoved and cold, I must have seemed, When he told me so sincerely.
Why, he must have asked Did I just turn and stare in icy silence, What was I to say, What can you say, When a love affair is over?
Now he’s gone away, And I’m alone, With a memory of his last look, Vague and drawn and sad, I see it still, All...

10 Mistakes I've Made

3. Thinking that my friends were perfect. They aren’t.
4. Buying something because it was cheap, not because I really needed it.
5. Letting people mistake my kindness for...
