Here lies the musings of a ravaged heart.

You may recognize me from being the 'It' girl for a while; but if you ever bring that up, I'll sock you.

Tell you what? I'm feeling a little generous. Q&A if anything's really piquing your interest.

Sup dweebs. Arnold and I took an unfair hiatus.

Sorry. We’ll be back soon enough, though. (Maybe him, sooner than I.)

geek-bait asked : Hey Helga, the last few times I've gone to the library I swear I see a Brainy there. Maybe not your Brainy, but I constantly catch him staring at me, he seems to be everywhere, and last time was probably the second time I've caught him breathing down my neck while I check out my books. Would you say that from now on it's acceptable to punch him in the face or should I try telling him to bug off a few more times, not that it's done any good.

It’s always acceptable to punch a Brainy in the face. I actually go around on twitter advising this, in case people are on the fence about the subject.

Examples: x - x - x

lastwizardofthecentury asked : I'm in love with someone myself. I have a question though. Everyone can see he feels the same for me. But he insists he only likes me as a friend. My question is, what do I do? Do I wait? Do I move on? I'm so confused.

I feel like you should wait, but maybe I’m just biased. Really sorry that this answer is pretty late though.

Anyway, I feel like that if he at least exhibits signs of reciprocation although without knowledge of it, there’s something there. There will come a point where you will feel like enough is enough and that will be when you should have an ultimatum, and re-approach him on the subject.

izzythehutt asked : What would be your ideal day spent with the love of your life?

I’m a romantic sap, so maybe some simple, yet meaningful things. A morning taking in the scenic view of the beach, an afternoon at a busy street-corner cafe, and an evening strolling the streets of the city.

Maybe a few hours at an arcade, tag-teaming it up to beat a few lowlifes. You know, the usual lovey dovey crap.

starberry-cupcake:

I just saw a post about how Helga had a better grade than Phoebe in The Aptitude Test episode and I wanted to say something but I felt it may be disrespectful to the post to put my unsolicited opinion there so here we go…

I always thought that Helga was more intelligent than Phoebe and I think that in the ‘Phoebe Cheats’ episode it’s more obvious than ever: Phoebe is clever, she remembers a lot of things, gathers a lot of info, works maybe twice or three times harder than anyone else in her class and has the best grades; but Helga is not only clever, she’s creative, she can use her mind to face her obstacles that are way harder to go through than every student in her class (and too many for a 9 year old). Helga’s mind goes farther than just equations and lessons, she is able to do great things with not even trying too hard, but behind that strong facade, she doesn’t feel she can be good enough (like she was never for her parents, living under Olga’s shadow, and Arnold, who up let’s say The Jungle Movie choses someone else rather than her). Phoebe has the knowledge to get uprgaded to the 6th grade but doesn’t have the maturity to resist it. Helga may not have the most impressive grades, but can handle the life she was given (not always in the most graceful way, but well enough). Intelligence, for me, isn’t just having good grades or remembering stuff that someone considers worthy, it’s being able to use what you know and have the best way to sort the obstacles that appear in your life. And I think Helga has being doing that since she was way too young.

Not only that, but I think Phoebe knows it. She read her poem in the poetry contest, she knows her obsession with ‘ice-cream’ and how it makes her who she really is, she roots for her and Arnold to be together because she knows she can be the best for him, she knows who Helga really is and why she hides it. I think Phoebe respects Helga and that’s why she stays beside her even when she’s being too rough or too bossy. Deep inside, Helga is more sensitive and Phoebe can keep her together, because Helga also respects Phoebe more than anyone else. Their friendship has a lot of layers and it’s much more true than what it seems. 

(I think I posted that post? And I’m sure that’s exactly what the person meant. Though my memory is a bit blurry since I haven’t gone on in a while. Thanks though!)

"Look, Brainy, this is just weird. How is it that you’re standing behind me again? How’d you get in this little arch? Were you waiting for me to come through this alley? What’s your deal?"

Helga, Hey Arnold!

dextrofruitcake asked : Helga, I must know - is the flamingo the inspiration behind your fashion choices?

You tryna be funny? Because my look inspired an entire fashion revolution—

that I think people should actually forget.

Anyway, there’s no huge bold statement to what I wear. My mom for some bizarre reason stockpiles on one type of clothing depending on the season, so my closet is full of these dresses.

UGH.

elizabethscarlet asked : Helga, I can't help but feel like we'd be the best of friends.

Great. But I’m very selective when it comes to best friends, so you’ll need to get in line.
