When You're Intelligent and Dumb/ Awkward all at Once

You go from the wormhole of string theory to asking how color blind people read stop lights. Or, like, do blondes like, really, like.. Have more fun?! 

You write ten page papers for class in an hour.. WITH footnotes, but it takes you 3 hours to come up with, "Hi, good morning," in a text message. 

You nail interviews, but nailing directions... It just won't ever happen. GIVE A, GIVE A, GIVE A GARMINNNN!!! 


Your pencil basically has autocorrect built in, but.. Your mouth? What just came out? Did you say that out loud?! Errrrr nerrrrrrr. 

Just because you KNOW the difference in what's good for you and not, doesn't mean you always act on said-good-thing-to-do.

You write a dissertation the night before and have no fear of good marks; put you in front of an attractive man and you lose 99% of your vocabulary, your ability to both hold a conversation and stand in a normal position. 

You deliberately avoid Barnes and Noble on paydays, but justify going to BarnesandNoble.com and Audible.com. Bye, Bye paycheck! Hasta la vista eating anything but ramen! 

You make the same mistake, oh.. 472,758,892 times, you know.. Just to be REAL SURE. 

You strive to travel the world, but if you're asked what any of the state abbreviations are you will probably say AR is Arizona... And you were BORN in Arizona. Ba dum chhhh. 

When your friend shows you a picture of a famous rapper and says he is her baby's daddy, you say, "Oh! He's attractive. Good for you!" and then realize he just released a new album. Let's just say ANY reference in pop culture you. will. miss. 

You just lack basic life skills. Why do time zones even exist?! Time is relative! Ugh... Calculating time zone differences is NOT the bees knees. 

You are not smarter than a 5th Grader. But you memorized all the questions after getting them wrong. ((second chances, anyone?))

You're getting a degree, but still don't know all the caveats to doing your own taxes and signing up for health insurance. 401K, just take my money.. 

You know the origin of every food on the menu, but still wish your parents could just order FOR you. And go ahead and just forget asking for a refill or a box. AW-KWARD. Let's just rule out human interaction as a whole, you usually make things weird, sweet pea. 

In select circles you're known as the scholar, in other tighter-knit circles you're known as, "the mess that we still love anyway."
