Talk to a mate, let her know I'm okay.
But l also don't want to, because my mind's not quite in the right place, and she's busy right now.
For the respect of her, I'm not gonna chat.
I would also like to finish my timetable. I'm trying to get used to working in timetables and having some self-discipline. I'd like to plan how to do my goals so my days aren't as hectic.
How would you feel if your parents had an Osu! account and know what you're posting here?

TL;DR Would be okay, preferred to a degree.
Long Version:
I have accepted that my father doesn't understand me nor shares my interest and thus really don't care what he thinks anymore. If my mother read it, I'd be slightly uncomfortable, but I'd prefer it honestly. She likes my silly humour, that's one thing, but the few depressed things I wrote, I would technically want her to know and talk about them with her, but didn't manage to tell her, yet.
I want to explain a few of my thoughts on this further. I'm the type of person that can put a lot of effort into friends and family, investing time to learn about their interests and motivating myself to be interested in them, too. I try to understand what they like about their interests and try to see it from their perspective. More often than not, I manage to share their joy with them, so I used to have a lot of fun with my father for example, but whenever I tried to select what we do or talk about my interests, it would never work out and it started bothering me more and more over the years, it felt like a onesided investment to me, unfair that I put in effort to this degree, but in the end I just feel like I'm a toy, and that I can't be myself, if that makes sense.
The other thing I wanted to get a little more into is "talking about things". It can be really hard to open up, especially about topics that worry and bother you, but it does really help if you manage to do so. In the example of my mother reading my forum posts, she knows quite a bit about my thoughts and worries, but there are always things I still can't manage to speak about, which makes me feel alone with my problems sometimes, not a good feeling, yet it's just a weakness of myself that prevents me to just talk about it. It's a feeling of people not being able to understand what I would want to express, not being able to relate to it, or people maybe trying to belittle my worries and emotions, even though they're real and quite heavy for me.
SQ cause it was an interesting one to think about and answer for me.

They wouldn't. They actually don't want me to play because they know it makes me prone to repetitive strain injury, which I shouldn't risk since I'm a student. They know I would chat on forums though (I spend some time in Discord servers), and it's not like I upload anything explicit or suggestive here (which isn't allowed anyway) or in those Discord servers, so I wouldn't be too worried. They know I am not the type of person to distribute some naked anime girl on a forum that doesn't allow it, for example, or to access that material in general.
Sometimes I see people writing essays to answer these questions. If you're one of them, do you wonder if you should really spend that much time to answer these questions? If not, what are your impressions of those who do?

I'm one of these people, for certain. I like to get things out of my head. I've been improving on typing shorter answers since I got a diary, but I may type a lot if I feel really stuck on something.

It's more a way of self reflection / meditation to type out thoughts for me and it can be interesting to read what's going through other peoples minds. Then there's always the chance that someone responds something interesting to one my thought essays and I learn something new / get a new perspective. I could probably spend less time on FG and or write shorter answers, I don't actually spend much time on it anyways, but I could still spend less time on it, but atm I find it's passable and makes me think about interesting things from time to time. (not to mention that even if I were to write shorter answers, all the things I didn't type would still be going through my head and all that would change would be me being more reserved and dishonest with my responses)

When I write answer, I try to write them so that I am happy with the answer given and if the answer requires a lot of words, then I have to write all of those words. I don't try to cut corners with my explanation when writing answer to question. And sometimes question just requires you to write a long essay for your answer to be understood.

...eugh. this topic.
if you express your thoughts in detail, and explain your answer in depth, you're taking the question seriously and showing exactly what you think about it. if i'm spending a few more minutes doing that, i don't really mind. we came here to spend our time away from things anyways.
it's somewhat bothersome to have others yelp for a tl;dr and generally just not give a shit about the answer. you asked, so i answered.
plus, it's fairly typical for there to be words that are too vague to simplify sentences to, and sometimes, you just have to describe it as it really is, to clarify.
there's tons of "reasons" why one would write "essays for answers". it's not like it needs much of a reason. there isn't a "should" or "shouldn't" in terms of how long your answers are, as long as they're not actual fucking spam.
i'm glad to see people explain their perspective in clarity. i can understand them better.
i think that's about as simple as it could be, if any of that makes sense. it's actually a fairly tiresome topic, as this is normally where things go when people decide i'm "taking things too seriously".

"Should"? How would I know.
I'm someone who spends time thinking about it and at the same time doing something else, mostly. As an example: I'm playing "TF2" while thinking about and writing this.
Calling those long answers "essays" feels kind of... Negative (but that's just my usual perception). Like, people writing such long answers, are writing so because of the question that was asked. Especially if you didn't say anything about the length of the answer you'd like to read. And if someone doesn't want to make it short, why wouldn't it be fine.
Thinking about it feels more and more stupid.

What do you think of the world we live in?
It's alright. Humanity is going through a growing process. The state of the world will probably always be objectively awful, and I think there are a million trillion things to criticize about the world we live in. It's fucked up in all sorts of ways. Society is awful.
But, on the other hand, it couldn't really be any other way. We can't be at this point in terms of technology, in terms of understanding the world around us, without having things go wrong or lacking understanding. There's been no precursor to a time like this. This is a completely new era for humanity. With that new era comes a whole host of new problems and issues that we've never encountered before and we certainly don't understand. We need to figure out how to make society work while things are constantly changing, and that's hard. In that sense, society on a whole is objectively horrible, but if you look at it and compare it to history it's quite good.
But there's a problem. I think the great filter is a real thing, and we're probably about to hit it. There seems to be an inherent natural destructiveness about intelligence. It seems that intelligence outstrips instincts and experiences. There's all these new things, all these new facets to society and existence that didn't exist 100, 200, 300 years ago. Completely new and revolutionary. As a side effect, it is imperative that our society adapts to fit around the new world we create. We're generally sort of okay at that... But it really seems like natural intelligence causes animals like us to grow too smart too quickly without the experience to understand the power you end up wielding when you're intelligent. We're more likely than not going to destroy ourselves because of it. We're too tribal. Our insticts are focused around a reality where competition for resources is real. Where the only thing that matters is the people close to you, and there's no damage from our actions to people very far away. It's a tribal mindset, and it's outdated.
Shoes are a good example. How many people do you think, for the shoes you wear on your feet, were involved in the process of creating those shoes? How peoples actions affected those shoes, the creation of them, the shipments, the retail, to finally getting to you? The answer is, seriously, millions. Millions and millions of people from all around the globe. Just for you to get some shoes. Everybody has a pair of shoes, right? Then what's it like if nearly everyone has a pair of shoes and for each pair of shoes millions of people were somehow involved with or affected those shoes?
We're all connected now. The way of thinking about only the immediate vicinty of people is outdated. It's no longer like, ah, yeah, there's a tribe of a few thousand people over there, lets make war with them, and that's an isolated incident. If any wars happen here in the modern age, that's not isolated. The whole globe feels the effects of that, whether people realize it or not.
There are plenty of people who in some way, consciously or not, realize that. We're a global society. But on the whole, we really act like we're not. We act like our actions and our decisions only affect us, immediately. We act like we're a society that's maybe a city big, or a state big, or a country big. But we're not. We're a fucking planet big, now. And in that sense, We don't see the whole picture. We have no foresight. It's not our natural state. It's not what we were evolved to do. We were evolved to survive in a world where we were our own biggest competitors. That or nature. It's not like that anymore. We haven't really learned that, as a people. It's bad.
So, yeah. The worlds alright. Going down a shitty path, but what other path is there to go down? We're probably fucked. That's how I look at things.

How I'm clearly becoming more sociable. This usually makes me very happy about myself. I used to be someone who isolated themselves from the world. Since, I believe a month or two ago, I've been getting more sociable, mainly online. However, I've also changed in real life, as I can now talk, as long as I'm not the one starting the conversation. I still have my weak points. Socialising is still scary. But it's now quite fun to set challenges and goals for myself and try to work towards them. I want to improve.
However, with my changed attitude towards socialising, I've noticed that I've been craving interaction with others. Being alone in my room often makes me quite depressed. I can't find the fun in being alone anymore. I guess it's because I love challenging myself, so I should put challenges of my own into the things that I do. Could be something I try today.
That was some interesting self-evaluation.

Unless I fucked up by speed through it it should be 16, probably took me 15 seconds to solve from the moment I wrote it into paint.
OT: My dream when I was a kid was to pharmacist to find a cure to an incurable illness that I have though in the end I discovered that I didn't like chemestry as much as other subject such as math, programming and physics so I left the dream behind.
SQ
Yep 16 is correct, it's pretty easy since you just equate log2 x^3 to log2 2^12, then cancel log2 on both sides and you get x^3 = 2^12. From there, x^3 = 4096, so x = 16.
Well, I knew that grown-ups had these things called jobs and I wanted to do something where I'd be handling children (like maybe a party organizer or a math teacher), so that their lives would be as carefree as mine. Easier said than done when you're Singaporean, because everything is expensive. Also, my ambitions have changed since then. I'm not very good with my social skills, so I'm looking to take up a profession in the digital technology sector. Yeah, like programmers and hackers (with good intentions such as eradicating computer viruses).
Was there any decision that your parents made for you that you felt was unfair?

Mm...
That "for me", huh...
Well it's not a decision per se, because it's just about choosing what to buy, in terms of clothes and furnitures.
I'm trying to get out of this home.
I might be seen as crazy and I'm fine with it, but there's nowhere for me to feel safe (or to be more harsh: "I don't want to call where I'm living a home, even if it seems stable from an external point of view"), hence that answer I wrote before:

I struggle with trust, so a part of me does believe that my friend may not actually like being around me. And she'll suddenly completely leave me because she simply can't stand me.
This thought fills me with dread. I despise it.
This is very unlikely, but I am prepared for this to turn out true regardless.

I apologize, but your questions are always so damn wordy. Hopefully my revision will do it justice: "What's something unrealistic that you wish would happen?"
I've always been fascinated by being able to just create anything my mind comes up with.
If I could create my own reality and live in it, and experience it, or at least just be able to express and create everything that I've envisioned through art or music, that'd be really nice.
But sadly, I don't have the skill and memory to do so.

I think that he meant 'What's something unrealistic/realistic that you want to (not) happen?'.
So either:
What's something unrealistic that you want to happen?
What's something unrealistic that you don't want to happen?
What's something realistic that you want to happen?
What's something realistic that you don't want to happen?
Depends on the type of music. I tend to be least stubborn when it comes to listening to new metal (especially symphonic). Also, I'd prefer to stay to the music I already know for now. Having consistent music is really helping me cope with a lot right now. Maybe in the near future.
(I'm not going to do another question, someone else can also do Achro's.)
