Totally just deleted my quote blog.
Ugh. NO FEARS, THOUGH. It’ll soon be revived, and filled with even more quotes than before! >:]
Just a heads up
I may or may not be deleting this blog.
Well not really…
But ideally, what I’d like to do is “archive” it somehow and start fresh. I don’t want to delete it because I’m no longer the type to run away from my past. These posts are me, whether in moments of greatest enlightenment or greatest breakdown. They are my past, and my past is mine no matter what. God...

Keep hope alive, Danny. There are still good people in this world, and they will be the ones that save it. Believe in them. Believe in you. Don’t lose hope because that’s when all hope is lost.

God made us to be more.
Not to struggle and beat ourselves up in the process.
Like a kid, purely enjoying the thrill of weekend soccer matches with his friends and feeling the victories of winning and the spoils of the pizza party afterwards - God made us to passionately pursue life. Learn and grow, looking at the world the way a child looks at the sky-high shelves of a candy shop. This world...

If I ever stop blogging suddenly, just follow her and you’ll get whatever it was I was gonna blog anyway.
Actually, go follow her now.
Seriously.

Not that I’m complaining about the NY Times part… not a single tiny little bit.
I just feel like every moment of fun with my Class is a precious moment. It feels like these are going to be the best four years of my life. I honestly feel like Columbia is “home” - I always felt that way for the past four years. That’s why I applied Early Decision. So for the first...

When I thought of this, I thought of all the ways my suffering and challenges have made me who I am today.

People don't understand: when I'm upset about...
I’m more the type to want to resolve my issues, rather than ignore them or distract myself from them.
In fact, I don’t want the negativity in me. So you distracting me makes me upset.
Please understand this, rather than branding me a douche bag. I have reasons for what I do.

FUUUUCK LUUPUUUS.
TIRED OF YOUR SHIT.
TIRED THAT I CAN’T REMEMBER A SINGLE FUCKING THING ANYMORE.
TIRED OF YOU SUCKING OUT EVERY EMOTION I’M CAPABLE OF FEELING.
AS IF I WASN’T A PRETTY EMOTIONLESS DUDE ALREADY.
FUCK THE MEDICINE THAT HEALS ONE SET OF SYMPTOMS AND THEN ADDS ITS OWN SET OF SYMPTOMS.
FUCK THE DISEASE THAT TRIES TO DENY ME MY RIGHT TO LIVE MY LIFE.
AND FUCK THE HEALTH CARE...

I talk to fast.
Just a random not-so-fun fact.
In a totally modest way, it’s because I think too fast.
It’s gotten worse and worse over the past year or so. I seriously don’t understand the words coming out of my mouth anymore.
Feels like I’m just spitting out gibberish now. Not to mention even understandable fast is still too fast. But now it’s to a point where I can’t even...

Scary because it’s forcing me to face me deepest, most hidden flaws.

Don't you understand me?
Can’t you understand that I DON’T NEED SHIT IN MY LIFE?
Of course everyone thinks that. But I honestly don’t need it. It kills me physically. It completely stops me in my tracks from moving forward, and right now I don’t have the strength to have perspective.
Please understand this. Because I don’t know what to do if you don’t.
I use to be strong enough to be...

Holy shit, Oxford.
You make me get my blood drawn at Duane Reade.
And now you don’t want to pay for my medicine because you’re convinced that I should be on something cheaper. It’s the best thing there is, if I want to live even close to that of a normal person. WHY DON’T I JUST DIE, ASSWIPES.
Ugh. I really don’t understand this world anymore. I really don’t understand...

Without God I am weak. Without God I am nothing.
This past year and this moment are living proof of that.
Find me God, because I don’t have any more strength to find You.

I hate how much in my life I open myself up for...
I’m the open type. (Or at least I trained myself to become this way.) I try my best to never get stuck.
So when I realize that I am scared of getting hurt, I cautiously and bravely try and open myself up and letting people in.
And it feels like 90% of the time I’m just shot down harder than I could have ever been when I never let a single person inside.
I swear, people have no...

Now my stomach hurts. The stress kind of hurt.
You praise yourself for going out to buy me medicine, but you don’t realize that it’s your stress that’s killing me. You really don’t.
Which makes no sense because you DO know.
In case you forgot it when the doctors told you or forget it everytime I tell you…
STRESS FUCKING DESTROYS MY BODY. ESPECIALLY EMOTIONAL STRESS.

Seriously. You have no idea. It sounds bitter and ignorant and rude and selfish and disgusting to say. And I’ve resolved myself to the world and myself thinking bad of me for it.
I see it. I see how the negative things I become seem to correlate with the normal things my dad is. I’ve felt the pain, despite how many times I try and calm down, change my perspective, and be the change....

Don’t take this moment to point out something you don’t like about me, because I can begin going for hours about it.
And you say “Never stopped you before”, when that’s EXACTLY what stopped me before. Because I think it’s disrespectful to say shit to your dad, and just endure it. Sometimes I wonder if anyone’s ever TOLD you about your shit, and I stopped...

My dad doesn't know how to accept being wrong.
When he realizes he’s wrong and is forced to respond after that realization, he just sort of goes silent and changes the subject.
He doesn’t realize how that’s actually more embarrassing than just admitting you’re wrong. Actually admitting you’re wrong is one of the most humbling, admirable, and strong things one can do.
He really struggles with admitting...

2010 Sundance Film Festival : WAITING FOR SUPERMAN →
Something that frustrates me: unions and the general consensus that keeping your job is more important to you than doing it right. People will fight for immoral things, simply because if they don’t they’ll be required to work harder and might face the fact that they aren’t qualified to do their job.
Really want to see this documentary. It’s something I’m passionate...
