sorry we mistook your boyfriend for a cinnamon roll and we sold him with the chametz. yeah it's just a temporary agreement, you can have him back in eight days. he'll be okay he's safe in a locked cabinet with the pasta

okay you all know my thing about how traveling and especially flying are the worst etc etc whatever. however. a 6am flight after zero sleep is much worse than a regular flight and everyone should know about my woes

actually it's the jewish responses that are making me crazy. like as someone who has taught hebrew school in the past i'm well aware that they don't really have time to cover (traditional) jewish attitudes towards christianity and/or jesus (they don't even really have time to cover the basics of judaism ime) but the sheer confidence with which people are wrong is what gets to me

#the results. oh my. #the notes are so interesting bc even ppl who have ostensibly taken an intro to religion class seem to have no idea #about the foundational texts of rabbinic judaism? #edit: also the jews are being ridiculous too. seriously?

well the petition for a late withdrawal got denied (twice) but anyway i think my main takeaway from this semester has been learning my limits & when to quit lol

#whatever. it will almost certainly be an F bc i'm done compromising my mental health but i'm genuinely over it #like this is definitely a lesson i had to learn the hard way at some point and i'm glad it's now rather than later on #.txt

i should go to office hours just to vent more often tbh

#well not just to vent. actually mostly really to talk excitedly about academic interests/insights/frustrations #i'm so so glad i transferred here i really love the judaic studies department #i love how my two favorite profs are neighbors in the same corner of the judaic studies floor..... #anyway bli ayin hara there is no greater experience than having teachers who Get It & i wish the same on all of you #.txt
