Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, I was giving a lecture to my class I heard a phone go off. Aggravated and exhausted, I asked everyone to turn their phones off. Then the phone rang again. I lost my shit and spent the next half hour calling my students a bunch of "technology whores". Then I realized the phone was mine. FML

Today, I pretended to be on the phone to avoid small talk with someone from my building. I spoke loudly into the phone while walking by them. My phone rang in the middle of my fake conversation. FML

Today, I purposely went offline on Facebook chat, just so people would think I actually have a life. FML

Today, I faked being sick so I could weasel out of a chemistry test at school. Happy that I pulled it off, I posted my accomplishment on Facebook. I forgot that I'm friends with my parents. FML

I hate small talk
Today, I pretended to be texting to avoid talking to an old classmate I saw at the grocery store. Unfortunately, my phone rang while I was “texting.” It was the classmate. I had no choice but to answer, while we were both standing 10 feet apart. FML

Please, apologize
Today, my teacher yelled at me for using my phone in class. I apologized out loud, knowing that it would help me get off easier. She was yelling at somebody else. FML

Today, I once again used my phone to get out of a conversation with someone, instead of actually talking to someone on it. FML

Today, in class, I reached into my bag to pull out a tampon, which I hid under my sleeve so I could make a quick escape to the restroom. My teacher yelled at me, because she thought I'd taken out my phone. I then had to prove myself by showing the tampon to the whole class. FML

Today, at school, I got stuck in the elevator and was about to panic before I remembered I had my phone. I called my mother and she called the school to tell them that I was stuck. They got me out in a few minutes and then confiscated my phone and gave me two detentions for using it in school. FML

Why? All that would get you is your phone taken away...at least, that's how it works here. If you want to make friends, go out and make some. Or start off by chatting to people online; that's what I do.

Something tells me you need intensive therapy, and you should join an extra curricular activity. Then when summer break comes you should go to a camp. Gosh, does anyone teach social skills anymore????

That sounds kinda like a dumb think to do. I think there are better ways to make it seem like you have friends.

It's called social anxiety. For some people making friends or even saying hello to someone in the hallway is a lot harder than most people realise.
