I hate it because I can't express myself in the same way with funny faces or voice changes, also I can't punch someone in the face.Kanye West wrote:

Don't type online how you would say certain things in real life - it can come off as offensive or in the completely wrong context.
I guess certain things I say have to have the facial expression, tone and body language with it for my intention to come across as clear.
This is why I don't like talking to people on the internet. It's like th e mentality is totally different.

- I'll never graduate high school if I continue being such an ass.
The only way to stop thinking sad things is to eat a lot of sweets.
Don't share your emotions over things that they will never understand.
If you want to keep your friends, put up a happy front and enjoy life.

Let nature go its way. Don't try and provoke things to go your way, and don't try and stop it. Just let it be, god damn it.

These mentalities alarm me. If visionaries like Martin Luther King Jr, Abraham Lincoln, Steve Jobs, Charles Darwin, Benjamin Franklin, Ludwig van Beethoven, Albert Einstein, Ghandi, [the list goes on...] had that mindset, we would be living in a vastly different world. Honestly, we would still be in the stone age - "oh hey, these stone tools are fine, why should we hope for anything better?"Seph wrote:
Never hope.
Never expect anything.
Nothing will change.
This can be applied to life. Some things in life you have to work for; with your blood, sweat, and tears, to build a life that you can be proud of. Yeah, life isn't fair. But that doesn't mean you can't make it fair.

^ I suppose context is important, as well.
On a different note,
What I've learned in my life, specifically in my years being on the internet/forums, is that one is constantly changing, and there is nothing you can to do except push forward and learn from past mistakes.
This comes from two things: 1) Forum posts are kind of like a more natural diary entry; it shows what you're thinking at the particular time 2) I've been in various forums since I was 8, which is a pretty early age.
Looking back at posts when I was 8, or even some from a year ago, they are radically different from what I am posting now. Just looking at some of them make me cringe - you know that user that obviously has no idea what's going on? Yeah, that's me. Poor grammar and overuse of ellipses, smileys, words like uber ...uggg. It's like an exponential increase of facepalm, as I go farther back. In all honesty, what sucks the most is that although I may think what I'm typing now is totally rational, when I look back at this stuff years in the future, it'll probably be the same.
It's not a bad thing though. Just me being a little introspective, and possibly overly self-critical.
and to people reading this, yoroshiku onegaishimasu, because I'm still learning every day~

Eating sweets really helps tho
Like a chocolate bar and some chocolate milk every day for lunch and then croissants and cake for dinner.

It helps but it's not the ONLY way I mean fuck
It's not even a way to stop it it just suppresses it.

lol I burn more calories digesting food than I gain from eating it. If only I was a girl... God I'd be a fucking slutty bitch lesbian.
Start college RIGHT out of high school when you have people to help you! Don't be 21, living at home, and working a minimum wage job.
And BRUSH YOU DAMN TEETH. Getting them fixed is expensive.
Don't stay in a relationship with a person just for them, make sure it's for you too.
