It happens to me too. I figured as much (about the whole moody thing) but it is still pretty weird to look at anyway.
I actually just had one of those moments where I felt completely outside myself. Sometimes I just get triggered into completely doing a 180 when I'm actually kind of enjoying myself. My writting class made up of a bunch of whiny girls makes me upset and I think they don't like me much. On the other hand, when I go to my friend's dorm building, I'm in a good mood and they have never seen me be the way I act around those girls in my writting class. I know we all have our ups and downs, but it really does seem like I'm a lot of different people. I'm not sure which one is really me... the really bitchy one or the happy one... can it really be both?
