I take criticism on my writing fairly well, I think, most of the time; concrit on posted stories is always welcome, and unless it's just ranting I usually respond politely. It's different when it's essays, though. I get sort of furious and snotty about people nitpicking my essays, which is funny because I suffer from the biggest case of imposter syndrome EVAR.

It's not even that it's difficult to do all the changes that my really nitpicky committee member suggested I make to my thesis, it's just that it's so disheartening to hit page after page after page of them. I can only cope with about ten pages at a time before my battered little ego starts to weep and I have to give it milk and cookies. Which is why I am doing the iPod iChing, even though I have no iPod.

(my mpio eats fewer batteries, records voice, plays FM radio, and PWNZORS JOO.)
