Well yeah, but I'm speaking to my specific headspace right now, not generalities.

Fucking hate 10 hours shifts. In other news, i'm still in a pretty low mood, for the few that care.

Oh, I dunno. Being one in a billion makes a person pretty special. Being one in seven billion makes you seven times as special!
Revel in how special you are. The rest of the world is missing out.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Jello, there may be seven billion sonsabitches walking the planet, but the funny thing is we're all pretty much unique.
Except the Danish!
I don't feel particularly unique, aside from uniquely shitty, but i doubt that's what you want to be hearing.

Family can suck monkey nuts, but hopefully they're still there for ya. On the bright side, maybe you'll get accepted to uni way far away and only have to see them every six months or so!

All i've done since i've came back is whine. I don't even feel like the same person i was when i used to be here. :/
Maybe Uni will help, but that'll be in 2018...

You'll come out the other side and in the meantime we're here for you.
