The only thing worse than a humanities degree is...

I'm sometimes overly sensitive; I take things to heart and I'm hard(er) on myself than anyone should ever be.
If you tell me something negative that really isn't true, a part of me will still latch onto that and let it fester in the folds of my brain that tells me I'm no good.

I really don't need people telling me things that are unhelpful, unfounded, misinformed, and just plain cruel.
