    Easiest way not to get picked is to make the attorneys hate you. They always interview the potential jurors to see who would help their case more. Just say whatever is the most likely to make them hate you and you'll get rejected as a juror and get to go home. Like if it's a child abuse case and the prosecution is interviewing you, say you hate kids and kids annoy you etc. and you'll be home really fast.

    Civil or criminal? If I’m going to be on a jury, I’d want it to be an OJ or Casey Anthony type high-profile case.

    I am so sick of this rain! It's rained nearly all day for the past two days.

    I think I may have accidentally misgendered someone today and I feel terrible about it. I can't stop think if I did or not!! I don't know if they cringed or if I'm just overreacting.

    I've had my phone for something like 5 years or so now, and I thought it was almost about to die because my charging port was being very finicky. I ended up looking up how much it would cost to fix it, and found a solution I could do myself. Apparently the lightning port gets filled with dust and crap and that's what caused it to be finicky when trying to charge it.

    I'm proud of myself that I was able to fix it without having to take it in or getting a new phone.

    I know that feeling when you realize that you don't have to spend the money you expected to use.

    I wish overwhelmed was an option for mood on here, since I'm not exactly stressed...more just I got overwhelmed by my senses recently and now need time to recover from it all. Stressed doesn't really cover that. Imagine being in fight or flight for an entire day but even when it ends it doesn't go immediately, instead you just get worn down gradually until you find yourself irritable and snapping at people even though you don't mean it.

    So you have to go and recharge your internal energy supply, otherwise everything becomes too much. That's how I feel.

    Here I go again. I fucking hate myself so much right now for not saying the right things, not figuring out ways to do my assignment, and being confused about my sexuality once again. Another issue I have is whether I'm really being myself or not.

    Not me. My birthday is very close to Christmas, so it usually gets overshadowed.

    A box of live frogs escaped in the biology building and just roamed free today. A cleaning lady became the frog whisperer - she carried around a mop bucket of frogs she found adding more throughout the day. She was witnessed telling a frog to 'get in the bucket with your brothers' and it actually did.

    I had a good day. It was Terry Fox day at my school so we didnt have classes in the afternoon. I ditched since it wasnt a manditory thing and made a new friend who is also gay/bisexual (not sure which yet but she has dated girls). She is in grade 10 and im in grade 12 so idk if it will be anything more than just friends, but she is pretty cute, and we like a lot of the same things.
    Either the start of a good friendship or something more. Either way its been a good day ☺

    I feel like just 5 years ago everything was so much simpler. Not just in my personal life but in the world.

    Actually my personal life wasn’t perfect. It wasn’t terrible though. I wouldn’t change a thing. I just think the world was not as crazy.

    Thanks! I actually said that I wouldn't give police officers (as a few ot the witnesses were cops) equality as witnesses simply because they're officers. I don't trust police officers so I would give them less credibility. I think that turned them away from me, but it was close though. I was juror 77 and it turns out that juror 78 was picked lol

    I don't think it was a high profile case like that, but it was a federal criminal case. It was kinda exciting, but I'm glad I wasn't picked because the trial was set to last 6 weeks and that's a lot of time to be missing work
