I'm a student pursuing a doctoral degree in late medieval history. My main interests include but are not limited to Latin, Italian, cultural theory, educational curriculum, historiography, cognitive processes, language-theory, gender relations and THE WESTERN CANON (mwahaha); i am not particularly interesting, avant-garde or risque; My main hobbies include the exciting activities of cooking, baking, going to the gym, eating green apple-caramel lollipops, restaurant reviewing and acting as child-like and sassy as possible. I keep these entries from the years of my life - no matter how i feel about them today - available because i find it useful to revisit events i now interpret differently. My name is heather, i'm of Montreal and i was born in the nefarious, ominous year 1984.

On being garrulous

Garrulous is the word of the day today - it means overly talkative.

Yes, it’s an excellent word to describe me - feel free to snicker to your heart’s content.

It creates a bit of a problem though. As my good friends can attest - i don’t mind being told to shut up when i’m on a rant. In fact, i appreciate it. I’ve been feeling very lonely lately - and i know why. I catch myself chatting like a magpie to acquaintances who let me prattle and then the conversation wasn’t an interaction at all but a monologue that, frankly, bored me to tears. It’s not the only thing making me lonely. Spending my evenings in the gym with headphones on and then coming home to cook myself a crappy dinner and go straight to bed doesn’t help either. I hate being concerned only with myself the way i am right now. I hate listening to myself talk.
