i wake up and i think about eating some sort of seafood. i go to sleep thinking about seafood. i eat shrimp almost every day and still crave it. my desire for shrimp and various animals of the sea is legitimately insatiable. this has been going on for two months. this all began with a canned tuna fixation, then a general tinned seafood fixation, then a shrimp fixation, and then an everything fixation. i wish to consume every form of seafood possible. i want to eat an entire raw salmon. i want a big bowl of ceviche. i want 100 fried oysters and 100 raw oysters with a side of 50 lemons. i want 100 cocktail shrimp. 100 exactly. i legitimately believe i could eat 100 cocktail shrimp in one sitting and maybe 200 oysters. i may or may not become the first human to turn pink from shrimp consumption. i want raw shrimp sashimi. i want seafood dip. tuna salad. tinned mussels in oil. raw marinated crab. kani salad. steamed tilapia. i want to rip into a lobster with my teeth and go to town (with two whole lemons and some butter). sometimes i wish i was a brown bear so i could tear into 40 raw salmon a day. i can eat seafood for each of my three square meals and still crave seafood. i crave seafood irrationally and constantly. i don't even care for beef or chicken anymore. i could become pescatarian right now and not even notice.

just thought somebody here may resonate! have a good day

hi all,

i'm entering university next year. if i blow this summer away, i will never forgive myself!

i am looking to have a maximally full summer. essentially, i'd just like to engage in my hobbies and take advantage of my potential and all this other stuff. i just want to do things. some of these things include:

1. self-studying philosophy (reading phil papers essentially)
2. reading books, reading articles, reading poetry, reading things i take interest in
3. learning spanish to the best of my abilities before taking a placement test for uni
4. writing all sorts of things!
5. other creative hobbies: drawing, whatever whatever whatever

i just want to fill my days with the activities that make me happy and that i believe are integral to my identity (which is actually a much more difficult pursuit than i had originally thought). as well as your run-of-the-mill productivity goals, like... applying to jobs, getting things done, working out, et cetera et cetera. overall, i'd just like to get into a daily routine that reflects what i'd like to do with my summer.

i'm up for calling or texting. i do not really have any strong preferences for what system is employed, so long as we're getting things done. do NOT be gentle with me. my ability to ditherdather is legitimately very tenacious and i often need some sort of commitment or immediate + exterior stressor to get me to do things. i need to be stressed out. as in, i seriously need to feel bad if i do not get things done. i work best when i've got some skin in the game.

i am also a good conversationalist (i hope) and i enjoy getting to know new people. my hobbies are likely evident from my goals, so there they are, but you don't need to share any. i am very chatty (though i don't have to be, just communicate these things to me) and i do not flake on principle.

hi all,

pre-law prefrosh really wanting to do DS here. obviously, DS as an experience differs for everyone, but i wanted to hear from some students doing directed studies if they thought DS was an undue burden on their GPA (or what some might call grade deflation?). i asked around during BDD and i understand that how harshly you're graded really depends on the professor, but i wanted to hear some general insights. i've heard everything to "you'll be fine just do it" and "it'll absolutely wreck your gpa but it's worth it". i'm really just trying to do some risk analysis esp as someone intending to go to law school
