>tfw you wanna cosplay with your friend but your friend has been getting increasingly unintelligent since graduating college
On one hand, she's still an amazingly compassionate and genuine person and I consider myself very lucky to be in her life. On the other hand, I can't take anything that comes out of her mouth seriously anymore.

One good thing that comes out of this is that seeing her IQ's quick descent has really highlighted the fact that your brain is a muscle and it has to exercise critical thinking and learn new things to "stay in shape". I'm making a point to learn Spanish and piano, and reading daily news off the BBC and the Wall Street Journal. I'll probably get around to reading a lot of the "classics" off of American high school reading lists that my school never did. After that, I'll see if I can buy some cheap college textbooks.

I don't know how to break it to her that she's slipping. I want to make cosplays and do con photoshoots with her, but she's starting to be a bit... insufferable at times. I still love her a lot so I can definitely room with her for cons, but it's difficult to not stare at her blankly when she starts talking on certain subjects. Hard to keep my expressions under control when we'll be standing in line talking for 5-6 hours every con.
