Freedom!

Sleepless nights.
Major headaches.
Long work days.
It's all over for me! I finally got through a difficult part in this year's quarter.
I finished my hum. core paper, bio midterm, and first weekend of full time work.
The calm before the storm.
Midterms are almost over but everything is going to start soon all over again. I can't believe school is going by so fast.
It's all a hectic blur.

The good thing about today is that I finally got to see an old friend from elementary school in person after almost 7 years. Amazing that we would still find each other no? I thought our meeting would be awkward since it was a last minute thing. He asked me out to lunch and I agreed to go meet him. To be honest it was the best time of my life. A simple meal but a great time!
hahah
This Thursday we're going to the spectrum together. It's not what you think! It's not a date! We just want to catch up on where our lives left off and hopefully we won't have to do that in the future.
Today is a good day.

Sick World

This world is sick.
What ever happened to morals, values, and respect?
Are we not supposed to be "civilized" in this day and age?
Yes, the city is now an urban jungle, but do we need to include our vicious instincts into this modern jungle?
We all have these violent instincts hidden in our bodies but they are dormant, unused, unneeded.
Why must we harm others?
Everyday and every moment someone is harmed whether they have done something to deserve it or not.
I know not every victim can be saved.
However, we can avoid creating victims.
Abduction, rape, murder, abuse.
The violent heart beat of the world.
My body runs wild with anger at the world and at myself.
Disgust runs through my veins as another child is abducted, another mother abused, and another father murdered.
I am disappointed with myself for not having the ability to save anyone and most of all for being related to all these crimes.
I am human.
Abductors, rapists, murderers, and abusers are human.
We are all the same.
The only difference is that the above named have put their violent abilities into use.
All I can do is sit and watch the world knowing that these abominable events are taking place.
Why? Why?
Will all this ever end?
