i looooooooove being reminded how downright lonely i could potentially feel...

M: don't you miss a certain someone?
I: huh no i don't have anyone to miss
M: that's kinda sad
I: no it's easier that way

i absolutely hate being made to feel like i need to depend on someone's company.

dependence is taxing, painful, disempowering.

on all sides.

no one is fond of those feelings.

i won't let my guard down like that anymore.

lost inside

i hate it when i allow myself to ponder. the worst place you can be is inside your own head...

fingers crossed

I've recently come to accept that I am completely incapable of making the transition from frigid to ice cold... but that's not to say I'm not trying.

Something refreshing has come my way and it would be a waste to take it for granted.

Cheers to new encounters, and the chance to maintain the old ones.

teach a man how to fish

i wish i had learned about compound interest, stocks, bonds, and shares before i discovered i hated maths.

if parents really wanted their children to be successful, they would teach their children how to actually maintain their savings or "trust funds" instead of setting them up for failure.

how do they expect their children to become stable and independent when parents are at the root, inflicting the deepest psychological stigma...
