Well today I woke up feeling REALLY SORE for some reason. My muscles feel sore over a lot of my body.
I'm not sure why because I didn't do anything overly strenuous yesterday or outside of the norm.
I shoveled a lot of snow a few days ago when we got the huge blizzard and my back was sore the next day but that got better.
I don't think this is from that at all. No idea why I feel so sore after waking up unless I'm coming down with something....although I've never had sore muscles from a cold or anything before. So I don't know. I don't have any other symptoms right now.
I feel crappy though and had a hard time eating enough today as a result.

Well, I've started spring quarter at school this week, and something happened that I think kind of belongs here. Get comfortable...
So, my first class is Intro to Video 101. It's a long class that meets once a week and has a one hour break after the first two hours. First two hours goes by fine, I go on break and come back. After we come back, we're split into four groups and given a small script without an ending, and each group films each person's version of that script.
Well, just as we were leaving to do our video, this guy comes in late, and is tossed into our group. Didn't think anything of this at first, I explained to him the assignment, and we went to shoot. So while another guy in our group was filming, I had an idea for my script ending, which required someone to send me a text on my phone. Just so happens, late guy was the one I had do that. Now, he's got my phone number. I assume you see where this is going...
After I've videoed my own film, I think during the last person's filming, late guy starts flirting with me. Not the type of flirting that could be friendliness mistaken for flirting; he's being very clear. He's not being awkward, but I feel kind of awkward because I'm just not used to being flirted with and he's not my type anyway. Otherwise, it's not too bad.
Well, cut to Monday evening around eight or nine. Late guy sends me a text, asking if it's cool to text me every once in a while. I figure, sure, shouldn't be too bad. Well, it's not long before he starts asking me just how single I am. The conversation quickly escalates, and let's just say he makes it crystal clear he wants in my pants. Ain't gonna happen. He ends up asking some fairly personal questions, like "are you a virgin", which, I think, Hey! I am! Maybe that'll turn him off!
It doesn't.
After a long, awkward, conversation, I finally get through to him I'm not interested. However, all the while, I'm relaying this conversation to my sister back in Chattanooga. Her boyfriend looks the guy up, and surprise! He's got a criminal record! One charge of which is domestic abuse. This concerns me. Luckily, as of yesterday morning, he hasn't texted me again. I'm hoping he's lost interest, maybe found someone else a little more willing than me to become his "sexy companion" (yes, he actually used this phrase).
Ugh. This actually makes me miss the awkward guys in high school who used to flirt with me. At least they had a little respect. And didn't have charges against them. I have let some friends know about this, though they're not in the class. If it persists, I might have to let the teacher of the class know so he won't group us together again. I don't THINK anything will happen, but you can never be too careful.
tl;dr Guy at school with a criminal record wants in my pants.

Since you wrote this a few weeks ago, any updates on the situation? Has he left you alone yet? If he's left you alone now....still keep an eye out though....because sometimes people pretend to stop stalking and then when you let your guard down, they suddenly show up. I've had a few quite creepy situations happen to me before involving guys....although thankfully nothing that ever really persisted or ended up in me being physically harmed....but it was creepy. It was definitely beyond the line of being awkward though...considering some guy followed me around at college a number of years back and kept taking pictures of me. There have been some other creepy situations also....although I never knew if anyone who bothered me had a criminal record or not. That's scary that that guy who is harassing you actually has a criminal record. And guys wonder why girls seem uneasy and non-trusting around them. It's just a defense mechanism until we know someone well enough. For the record, if some guy did to me what he did to you.....I would be creeped out no matter how good looking I might think he is. When someone acts that way, I stay away, no matter how hot he is.....because there are just a lot of bad signs with the guy. I was at a convention once and some guy grabbed me and hugged me without consent and went "Mmmm." while doing so....and honestly the guy looked like my type physically....but I was so shocked and creeped out that I wouldn't have wanted anything to do with him, even if I had been single at the time. When guys seem awkward....that's okay....but when they come across as forceful in any kind of way and like they don't respect my personal space or care about my opinion, it's a red flag and I won't want anything to do with them no matter what they look like. There was a guy at my high school back in the day who was the same age as me and well, I wasn't one of his targets but 2 of my female friends were. I think it was because they were friendly to him and I guess he got the wrong impression from it. I actually felt kind of bad for the guy....especially when he handed in an assignment in class and I overheard the teacher say to him "Wow you actually handed in something on time for once." That seemed really rude to me, that the teacher would say that to him. He seemed really insecure and was the most dorky guy in the class. Really skinny, as skinny as me(which I think is more unusual/uncommon for males), and with huge glasses(the kind of glasses people make fun of people for.....I don't think there was anything wrong with how he looked really, but it's not the kind of look that's popular with many people). He was not remotely popular and I think in a lot of ways he just lacked social skills......but he crossed a line from seeming awkward to seeming creepy when he actually attempted to follow one of my friends home from school and came up behind her and hugged her. It scared her completely out of her mind. After that incident, I was definitely afraid to be friendly with him myself, despite the fact that I felt bad for him. One of our other mutual female friends told him off, told him that he was freaking out some of our friends. I remember one time when he was following us we all ran into the female washroom to get away from him. I'm relatively socially awkward myself too, especially as a teen, even though I did have a few friends. The thing is though that no one is afraid of socially awkward girls....it's always the males that creep people out. I wouldn't have been creeped out by him though if he hadn't crossed certain lines with my friends....because following someone home is definitely scary.

There is a huge zit on my forehead that is pissing me off. -_- It's not that obvious because it's right by my hair line under my fringe....but it's one of those ones that's so big that it feels kind of sore. :/ I'm almost 29 and sometimes I honestly wonder....how long am I still going to get these things? I mean I've never been someone who has a ton of them...even as a teen I didn't(although I did have more as a teen than I do now) but on any given day I usually have at least one somewhere.
