Crying is like masturbation

in b4 'you always end up wet' jokes

I had an Economics mid-term today. Everything was going swell until I hit the last question. Too bad the last question was worth 1/3 of the entire test.

I need to figure out what I'm doing. I have the past settled and the future planned but as for the here and now things are very...hazy. I'd always envisioned the present as nothing more than a bridge to reach a goal, yet I've realized if the foundation of the bridge isn't strong, I'll collapse before I get anywhere.

As the title implies, I find that crying is a form a relief. I don't do it because I want to, I do it because as a human being, things get pent up to the brim of tolerance, and eventually I need...release. That's how things are. That's why I have a playlist constructed solely of songs that serve as bawwww-triggers. That's why, more often than not, I can keep my emotions strictly in check when around other people. Scoot doesn't know how lucky she is not to feel anything. I'd imagine that'd be much easier than having to keep basic human compulsions and emotions under constant supervision and control.

Pyro wrote me something to make me feel better, and god knows it did the job. She says she wants to help. I don't think she understands just how having her involved in my life is helping already. I don't know where I'd be without her.
