the weird quirks of belden granada

some of the things i do that i find strange. its not ocd, i hate it when people say ‘hey guys, i have ocd’—. no let me tell you, its not ocd. i dont consider it ocd unless its diagnosed. 

  • before every meal, i have to use the restroom or bathroom, and wash my hands. its no joke when i say: every. meal. i just like being comfortable when i eat, and i dont want to get up in the middle of my meal, and use it. if i dont do this i get very uncomfortable. 
  • when someone says they need to use the ‘bathroom’ in a public place, i correct them by saying its a ‘restroom’. if it doesnt have a bath, its a restroom. but then they say ‘well i dont rest in it’— HEY. you shut your filthy mouth, its a restroom.
  • i cant drop a load if im not at home or unless the bath or restroom is as clean as a hotel’s. also, i cant take one if im wearing a jacket or a sweater. i dont know what it is, but i feel like its nearly as uncomfortable as not using the rest or bathroom before a meal.
  • at family parties, for whatever reason, they take a ridiculous amount of group pictures. i get so irritated by this, its like ‘why do you need so many pictures of one night? theres a high chance therell be another family gathering within a week’. because of this, ive limited my smile to 3 pictures. if they use those three up, i just make a straight face. 
  • there are times when i see a woman or girl with an outfit that im very attracted to. when this happens, i feel like im obligated to draw or sketch, not nessicarly them, but what theyre wearing. if i dont have my sketch book, or anything to draw with, it stays in my mind all day until i do have my hands on my sketchbook. its weird, because its usually just women. men’s outfits dont catch my eye, that or if i do see something flashy i jump to the conclusion ‘he’s trying to hard’. especially if i see a guy wearing a tie or bow tie to school, it’s like, ‘you’re at school, honestly, who are you trying to impress?’

im pretty sure i have more than just this, but this is only what i can think of right now…
