| Average Guy: | Why, oh why, do onions make you cry? |
| Scientist: | Onions. Well, sir, this is a vital question and- |
| Average Guy: | This shit's been keeping me up all night, Doc. |
| Scientist: | When you slice into an onion, you're breaking it's cells. Which releases the cells contents into the air and the amino acid sulfoxides become sulfenic acids. Right? And the enzymes that were once kept apart can now mix with the aforementioned sulfenic acid and they create something called propanethiol S-oxide, which is a volatile sulfur compound that wafts upward toward your eyes. That then reacts with the water in your eyes and creates sulfuric acid. Which then proceeds to burn the shit out of your eyeballs. It all just chemistry, really. |
| Average Guy: | *frowns in mild horror* That was.. terrifying. Can you stop it? |
| Scientists: | *nods* Sure, you can slow the reaction down by cutting into it under cold water, or by refrigerating it first. And, obviously, when you cook it, it stops anyway. |
| Average Guy: | Well, I never. |
| Scientist: | You found that interesting? |
| Average Guy: | *nods* Surprisingly. |
Oka, my conscience (aka my bestie, NW, my darling friend) was not at school today. Turns out I needed her last period. BADLY.
So, I was going to go into the library in town for spare (which is where I am currently), just so I didn’t have to be at school (as my darling friend wasn’t there), and maybe get some early dinner (though I have no money…. so that idea is out…), before work.
ANYWAYS. Lucas intercepts me right coming out of the drama room. Follows me to my locker.
asks me: “How much does a polar bear weigh?”
inside i’m panicking. Outside: “enough to crush your skull.”
him: Oh.
inside, I’m panicking. Hyperventilating, practically.
him: How much does a thousand polar bears weigh?
me: *oh you’re fucking kidding me* “Enough to crush a LOT of skulls - and your body.”
so then it continues like that.
and he does his, being awkward thing trying to ‘fix things’.
Did we not agree to NOT talk last week? The hell!
Okay… so I get all my stuff and start heading to my car, and being the persistent little f*ck*r that he is, he follows me. Making it more awkward as we go.
He asks if anything is going to work blah blah blah - I am stoick faced - I will NOT be compromised! (I was channeling my inner Spock!)
I say nothing. He persists. I tell him cheesy pick up lines certainly wont do it. (i may have been a tad bit rude here.)
Okay…. blah blah blah… then… right. Okay, so we’re almost to the gym by this point (almost to the doors, where I can escape to freedom - er… my car… and he says “I miss my friend.” I say nothing. “You’re the most beautiful person i know.” I am panicking inside. PANIC. OMFG. But I keep channeling Spock. *deep breath* I don’t look at him. “The most beautiful person I will EVER know.”
Me: “That’s going too far.”
I WAS SAVED BY THE BELL. OMG. THANK THE POWERS THE BE.
The bell rang.
We were exiting the doors out to the parking lot.
He turns and leaves.
I keep my face still. I speed walk across the parking lot. Get into my car. And THEN i panic and REALLY start wishing NW was there. I needed - NEED someone to talk to. freaking out. OMG. OMG. OMG.
Okay. I’m glad I got that out.
Omg. This is so how i feel today!!!

Now the problem is, which of them is my soulmate? Or is my soul divided into more than one piece?
Can you have more than one soulmate?

you have barely accomplished anything. You are finding your way in the world and discovering who you are and what you want to do with your life. At 19, you opinions don’t matter as much as those who have “been around.” In the grand scheme of things, you’re in the background – the understudy to a minor character.

I am so hoping that this doesn’t happen right now… I am totally skiving off my history homework. LIKE A BOSS.
