Talking about the future freaks me out. I don’t want to think about this anymore, but it’s not like I can just sit back and watch my life play out. It doesn’t work like that, it never does. Not for me.
"My parents are in love"
One of my friends asked if we ever saw a couple walking around in love anymore. My other friend responded right away saying “my parents are in love” and when I chuckled saying “that’s cute”, she answered “What? They have a great partnership”.
It’s always nice to hear someone’s child be so confident in their parent’s marriage, especially...
The Defiance Of The Different
officialiwrotethisforyou:
Most importantly, if you can at all avoid it, don’t be normal. Strive, burn and do everything you can to avoid being the industry standard. Even the highest industry standard. Be greater than anything anyone else has ever dreamed of you. Don’t settle for pats on the back, salary increases, a nod-and-a-smile. Instead, rage against the tepidness of the mundane with...
That just made me the happiest person alive.
I know something as small as this is kind of stupid and it might not last, but it felt good that I finally got something that I tried so hard for. It’s been a while. I just can’t let this boost my ego too high because there is still so much left to go. Sorry, I just had to have a record of this to show that there is hope that if I keep fighting, I will be fine. I will be.
Tots.

Pull it together.
Can’t let it fall apart because when the seams unravel, I’ll be left with nothing in the end and that’s not how I want it to be.

Hi everyone :) Here are a few of my favorite quotes that I’d like to share with you all. They have really picked me up and sparked introspection especially within this last year. Some quotes are about improving ourselves, some about relationships and friendships, and others just about life in general—things that we too often overlook and forget to treat with care. I know that...

I hate being average.
I work hard, I really do. But no matter what—maybe the way I work isn’t right, maybe I’m just not programmed to succeed at that certain task—I’m never above average. I’m not going to just stop working for what I want just because I’m average, but it just sucks that I try and try but I feel like I’m not going anywhere with anything.
It's kind of nice hearing the rain falling...
But at the same time, it makes me just want to go into my blankets and stay under the covers listening to the rain.

Hello AJ,
My name is Carpus Tin and I was really interested in your video intern opportunity! I’ve had a passion for videography since I was a kid, and I have worked on various projects in these past few years. I hope to not only be able to bring my experiences to the table, but also to get a chance to explore this creative aspect of media. Another thing that added to my interest in...

It may be harsh, but it makes an impact. Pull it together, Harrah. Pull it together.

It's always nice catching up with friends you...
Especially those you used to see every single day for years. All of it is still the same; you never left home, you’re not separated by this distance, you still see and talk to each other every day. That’s wishful thinking, we all grow up, go our separate ways. But there are those friends who will be there at ungodly hours of the night/morning who we’ll talk to for hours like...
I don’t understand why it keeps coming down.

The Stuff And The Things
officialiwrotethisforyou:
If you like a whole bunch of things and I like a whole bunch of things, maybe one of the things that we both like, can be each other.
I need to stop comparing myself to others. It does me no good because if I’m doing even a little bit less, it makes me feel like absolute trash.

I keep thinking you already know. I keep thinking I’ve sent you letters that were only ever written in my mind.
- I Wrote This For You
Yesterday during my CAT discussion, my TA asked the class two questions: “If you were diagnosed with a illness that meant you were going to die in 6months, would you want your physician/doctor to tell you?” and “If you had a 15% of survival with chemotherapy or radiation, would you do the treatment?”
So the background for what we’re discussing in CAT (Culture, Art,...
