I Have a ConfessionI get so scared that I'll end up like my mother.. (convinced I'm worthless and that I need a guy in my life to feel secure.. and then becoming self sabotaging because I don't think I deserve to be happy.) I used to be like that.. I'm not anymore. But...See More »
I Want To Run Away And See The WorldI want to see and experience so many things in life. Up until a few years ago I wasn't so sure I'd get the chance to experience much of this life. Because of that I really never thought about things to do or see.. what's the point in dreaming when...See More »
I Laugh Out Loud,even When Im On My OwnI often get strange looks at work and in the store because I laugh out loud at some arbitrary thing that popped into my head. Pretty used to it now, though.
I Have Strange DreamsI've been having strange dreams lately.. well I always have strange dreams but these are just plain weird. Night before last I had this weird dream that I had super powers.. think I was a witch or something.. I'm not for sure. It was all disjointed....See More »
I Am Stronger Because of All I've Been ThroughI've been through a lot. I'm a strong believer in age does not equate to maturity. Some days I act like an 80 year old. Others I act closer to 10. When I was a teenager dealing with undiagnosed PTSD I used to wish I'd never gone through the event...See More »
I Like to Play Video GamesI love video games (: I really like open world games like skyrim and fallout. I'm terrible at first person shooter games but I'm slowly improving. I've been using an Xbox controller to play PC games, which has really helped my bad hand develop. I'm...See More »
I Love NatureI love being outdoors and around nature. The fresh air and sound of birds chirping is intoxicating. I love doing art or journally or writing outside, but it seems like there's never a time to do it or the weather sucks for it.
I Express Myself Through WritingI was (and am) terrible at expressing most things outloud. As a young teenager I went through a lot of crap that effectively stalled my emotional development.. Instead of learning to socialize normally I only really messaged people online. So I...See More »
I Remember When I Joined EpI joined EP July 11,2010. I was looking for others who had had the same brain surgery as me, which was extremely difficult as you could probably imagine. There was someone who'd posted on EP about an almost identical surgery, so I eagerly joined the...See More »
I Love BooksI've always had a dream of having an in-home library. Reading is a passion of mine. Most of my books were ruined in a fire, though, so I've decided just to ebooks from now on until I get a house of my own (not a rental).
I Love Meaningful ConversationsI love those conversations where people actually talk about the things they're interested in and you maybe even learn something from them or just their perspective on an event or topic.. but they also let you talk about things you're interested in....See More »
I Need to VentOh my god. I can't stand some of the people I work with. I live in a very republican area so I have to deal with some of their views no matter what. That's okay, I guess. But this one kid I work with is just over the top pro-Trump. "Yeah I'm worried...See More »
I Have a ConfessionI just got blocked over semantics.. after they called me an idiot. I always find those who insult and then block to be the most cowardly.
I Value Learning Above Most ThingsI don't see any reason to be alive if I'm not learning something. If you're not learning, you're stagnant and quickly becoming ignorant. I know a man who believes he's extremely intelligent. He thinks he knows everything he needs to because he's 43....See More »
I Love Sunsets and Sunrises This is of a June sunset over a lake. When I was younger I could never really look at sunsets or sunrises with lots of colors, because the variety and brightness would mess with my seizures. Once my seizures cleared up for a few years and I could...See More »
I Need to VentI guess this will be my journal for now. I was renting an apartment from my mom's boss/boyfriend. There was a family that lived upstairs when I moved in Oct of 2016. Well the parents were under investigation for child abuse so the two kids were taken...See More »
I Love Stupid JokesWhy did the weather man bring a bar of soap to work? He was predicting showers. What did the square say to the circle? You're pointless. Wanna hear the new word I just made up? Plagiarism. What do you get when you combine a turkey and a banjo? A...See More »
I Have Daddy IssuesI don't mind my dad, but he wasn't really there for me as anything but a buddy to play games with when he wasn't out at a bar or working. His side of the family doesn't understand why I have issues with him. I only have a few memories of him from...See More »
I Am Open Minded And Non Judgemental [I Am Open Minded and Talk About Anything]As nonjudgmental as a human can be. I try my best to accept everyone's views and not be critical of them (not that I always succeed.. some of these fetishes are very difficult to accept.. especially when people are trying to constantly get you into...See More »
I Have Ptsd Nightmares And FlashbacksI don't especially want to be the first writing about this, but I do get both nightmares and flashbacks as symptoms from my PTSD. I don't get flashbacks all that often. Strangely enough, I get these times where it feels like a flashback and I go...See More »
I Need to Be Intellectually StimulatedI need the stimulation otherwise I get bored of people easily. I don't mind small talk; I like getting to know the little things about people too. But I need more after awhile or else I'll just slowly stop talking to people.
I Am Creative I'm very creative when it comes to writing stories. My drawings I don't really count as creative since they're pretty much just repetitive shapes but I do love drawing. (Don't judge.. It's for a family member's business.)
I Love the Experience ProjectI miss EP so much :/ I met some really amazing people on there who I miss so badly
I Have AnxietyI have pretty bad anxiety but it's much better than it used to be. I only jump and step away when people touch me unexpectedly (instead of freaking out and half running away from whoever it is). And I can talk to people now. I still get super...See More »
I Perform Random Acts Of KindnessI perform random acts of kindness for a purely selfish reason: it makes me happy. If customers are nice to me at work I'll pay for their food or give them my free sandwich. Sometimes I'll look up motovational quotes and write a bunch down just so I...See More »
