- More capable of finding my own way around (alone)
- Conscious of money and how easily it goes. I learnt how to waste it, use it wisely, and save it. And also to hate it a little.
- That neither drugs nor alcohol are ever a fix for any kind of state. Fuck with them and they fuck with you. But you will never get away from them.
- I am asexual.
- Effort, hard work, and enthusiasm won't always pay off. Persistence nearly always does.
- But who has the fucking time for that?
- I go through phases, now, of either hating every possession I own or humming to buy more.
- I have traveled alone, flown solo, made new friends.
- My health has actually not improved, unbeknownst to what I originally believed would happen after school...
- Sometimes I find myself understanding how sad adults come to be how they are, and that terrifies me.
- Unlike my high school persona, I can now start to differentiate how I perceive things to be and how they actually are.
- The biggest lesson that school never prepared me for is how fucking awful people are. Retail taught me that one.
