Anonymous asked: I used write much more often a while back, gradually, it began to dimish. However, I'm hoping to make time for my old antics. Ah! That's extremely exciting! Aren't you hyped? Meeting new people is always fun. :3 I like doing that. My day was okay, still sort of stuck in the same social situation, but I'm getting by.

Thats a shame, i would love to read some of your writing! Don’t tell me your writing isn’t special or good or whatever, that’s like saying your DNA and genes aren’t unique which is obviously not true; and anything unique is good in its own way because it can’t be compared to anything else. I am hyped, its helped me to look past my current problems and look forward for a better life. Surely your situation, or at least your perspective of your situation, has changed since we started talking. Anything new?

Anonymous asked: I struggle to find my writing style. I just start going in circles when I try to explain something, but I've been trying to improve. How are you? How was your day?

I think the more you write the more you improve, whether or not you think you are improving. As you write you figure out not only what it is that interests you, but what your mind is thinking and how it is thinking; knowledge that is invaluable to have. I’m sure your writing is improving if you’re writing regularly.

I’m doing fine. My day has been good, I am in my last week of high school ever and I’m a little weirded out by the fact that everything is going to change soon, but I’m also excited. Thinking about the future helps take my mind off the present. How are you, how was your day?

Rant on Happiness, Personal Opinion, and Nonconformity - 05/13/13

If you want happiness, dont attach yourself to people, attach yourself to goals and dreams. The only way dreams and goals can let you down is if you let then down, and so as long as you keep dreaming and working, you can always be happy. I feel like significant others, especially in high school, have been made out to be much more important than they really are. The same goes for prom, and homecoming, and first kisses, and all those strange social stigmas people seem to care about. Have you ever stepped back and wondered why you want to do something, thought about who you are and if what you are about to do reflects that or not? Have you ever wondered why you want something?
This past school year I did some self evaluation and learned who I really am. I cant dance to music I dont like and I dont socialize well at dances no matter how hard I try. I prefer talking to just dancing. So I realized prom just isnt for me. It is a combination of everything I dont like: paying an obscene amount of money, overly dressing up, taking formal pictures, and dancing. Why should I go? Why should I subject myself to a situation I find undesireable just because its what everyone does? Its an age old anti-conformist argument, just using more modern terms. I cannot respect anyone who intentionally places themselves in situations they dont want to be in purely because of social expectations. Doing something because your friends are doing it is never an excuse; and I would rather be fiercely me and have no one like me than be somewhat me and be liked by everyone.
Its amazing how much people will try to keep you from being you, and I urge you to never give in. If you feel something, if you have an opinion and youre too scared to share it, do so anyways. Its not worth holding it in, if someone cant be friends with you because they dont like the most honest truth within you then they arent worth your time nor your friendship. Its amazing how much closer friends you can make when you are as you as possible.
