It feels so good to admit this

Just another reason why I need to have a giant orgy with the peeps at ontd_ai. Seriously, best, sweetest, most awesome folks ever. Sorry about the width of my page.

it's such a lie when people say everyone on the internet is horrible and out to get you! because sure some people are mean and bitchy but sooooooo many people are so nice!!!!! like if you write something or draw something or whatever everyone's like that's great! and don't say anything if they don't like it.

ikr? people are so nice. i just made one of the biggest decisions in my life and i got more support online than at home.

lol it feels so weird talking about this and merlin slash with you on the other thread at the same time. multitasking, i can do it.

my friend group at school have this joint blog which i'm no longer part of because i didn't agree with what they were saying on it but they were alllllll sooooo bitchy! people i actually like in rl and then you come on here and everyone's sooooo lovely!

i love it when you reply to an entry or something with a number of comments and then you keep threads of those comments going on the same thread of comments. it's really like having two conversations with one person at once!!! much like this!

oh that's too bad. and omg sorry i'm late my mom just came home.

i feel like people i really like in real life would never get my online life. like the slash and everything. so i love having online friends who understand. and i hate being bitched at online - i take every thing way too seriously. that excuse 'it's just the internet' doesn't work for me.
and ontd_ai has this atmosphere of being really nice to people, so i'm glad i'm in some comms where people are really supportive.

Thank you bb!

I really feel happy today because I fianlly made a decision about my life and everyone was just so supportive. I felt a bit attention whorish posting a screencap here but this thread was so important to me

*HUGS*
Good luck in your life too!!!

You'll figure it out. You're a smart gal! What I learned today is you really have to do what you want. I don't want us to be stuck in professions we're not passionate about, you know?

AND OMG ~TELLING PARENTS THINGS IS THE MOST NERVE RACKING THING EVER.

GOOD LUCK!

Yeah I totally agree bb - ontd_ai is just really awesome and supportive - and listens to what you want in your heart, you know?

It's hard to be not emotionally involved as a parent - but the important thing is to not project your needs and wants onto your child.

I like this:

Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you, yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts.
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.

That is a great poem bb! You must be an awesome mom irl <3

my mom is being really supportive of my decision, which i really appreciate.

and yes, ontd_ai is the best place on the internet. I love that I started out stanning Adam and now it's basically my emotional haven.

ty for being so supportive!
