  • First new entry: Ten year pause
    August 1, 2020
    This is weird. I was having a bad night, and I thought back about this website I wrote my desperate pleas on when I was sixteen years old. I don’t know what led me to google this place and find out that I could read all my old entries. it’s a decade later, and I’m…

  • Hopeful Days vs. Lost Hope
    January 16, 2014
     Some days I have hope for myself.  I have hope that I will outgrow this problematic lack in self confidence.  I have hope that I will get over my fear of rejection and fall in love and finally kiss someone.  I have hope that I will have the life I've wanted for so long. &nbsp...

  • Old Ghosts Newly Visible
    January 12, 2014
     Have you ever gone away from a certain place for a while, and while you were gone, you idealized that place.  Maybe not even idealized, but simply looked forward to returning, hoping things would be different this time. That maybe you'd be more outgoing when you returned.  And may...

  • Stories like me are a dime a dozen…
    January 2, 2014
     This entry is not meant to complain but to share my story. I've spent as long as I can remember feeling like a lower grade human being than anyone else.  When meeting people and attempting to form relationships, I would always think, "Why would they want to be friends with me? &nb...

  • Back to school
    August 11, 2013
     I'm feeling extra down about going back to school.  I know its going to be a bunch of hard work that's going to be overwhelming and nearly impossible to keep up with.  And I just don't want to...I don't feel like keeping up and working hard.  I just don't.   But mostly, ...

  • The Luckier One?
    July 20, 2013
    I look like the one who has it all together and he's the one who's messed up.  Superficially, that is exactly how it is.  He does drugs...pot, LSD, ecstasy, supposedly and probably cocaine...drinks, parties all the time, and didn't go to college.  I got a scholarship to college, ma...
