Frustration

      So, as you probably don't know, May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Crazy, isn't it? What are people doing about it? I can tell you, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I'm sick of the lack of attention Mental Illness gets in comparison to, say, Autism or Breast Cancer (not that having those diseases are "better" in any way...disease is disease is disease). I posted a little friendly reminder to my "friends" on FB about it. In spite of the number of likes, how many people actually care? How many "friends" of mine, who I KNOW (and know for a fact that they themselves have been affected by mental disorder) stand in ambivalence? I honestly can't count how many. Words cannot describe my frustration with these people. I beg of you, if you've been affected,  USE YOUR VOICE. HELP END SOMEONE ELSE'S PAIN. SILENCE ALLOWS THE STIGMA TO CONTINUE. I'm not advocating for you to tell the world about your trials, but at least stand by the cause. Unfortunately, I cannot ramble more because I am pressed for time. Til next time,

What the hell

      It has been about a year since I've last posted anything on here. Since no one in real life cares about what I have to say, I decided to get back to blogging in time for the major life changes that are about to take place in my life.
1. Graduation: The day that I have looked forward to (and continue to look forward to) is about to arrive. Let's just hope I finish my speech in one piece.
2. College: I've recently decided where I am going to plant myself for the next four years. It's prestigious but far from home. I get scared but I always realize that I'm ready to leave. There are too many small minded, unmotivated, meaningless people around here. Someone once told me that unless I want my life to stay the same, unless I want to remain small on the face of a large planet, I NEED to branch out. College is my perfect opportunity.
3. Goodbyes: It feels unnerving to walk the hallways of my school and think that after next month, I will never see these people ever again. While 95% of my school (and the people I know) can go to hell, I can think of three people I'm truly going to miss. I'm also moving after graduation...Don't know how that is going to go.
