i may be an inadequate friend, teammate, and daughter, but i have to draw that line somewhere. i can't just sit back and watch my inadequacy deteriorate everything i stand for and everything i care about. feeling inadequate is the worst possible feeling. i know you all have felt it before just as i do...constantly. it's natural that we compare ourselves to others in every category possible, searching desperately for something to make us superior..yet all we focus on are our weaknesses, our downfalls. well, as cliche as this may sound, i'm through with making myself feel inadequate. and i'm tired of comparing myself to others.
for you: despite the way my stupid actions may come across to you, i always will love you, and i will always consider you my best friend.. even if i suck at time management, am terrible at keeping in touch, and just really out of sync with you. and i know it's all my fault.. i'm sorry. once again, i've let you down.

Next minute: a filth fountain...Spa sources don't produce pure mineral water one minute then putrid gunk the next. you can't get drinking water out of a sewer."
