When you educate someone on the poison nature of rape jokes in a comment on an “Alf Stewart rape dungeon” photo they have posted and they delete your comment and continue to post about how funny it is. Facebook, making it easy to distinguish the good people from the rotten ones.
Imagine being so frustrated with your laptop that it won’t connect to wifi that you literally throw it down on the couch and it snaps and now it can no longer close and needs to be propped up against something in order to be able to use it.
Listening to sounds of the rainforest whilst doing my assignments actually proves to be an effective way of helping me keep my cool (flashback to two years ago, literally throwing things at the wall in fits of HSC rage).
Dear guy who is subtly circling me on the train platform,
I am really impressed by your matching grey track pants and jumper, as well as your backwards cap and the way you swing your keys constantly. You’re such a badass, standing over the yellow line so often! I love the way you stare at me in such a way that I can’t tell if you’re going to hit on me or steal my bag! I wish there were more men like you in the world.
Sometimes I forget how lucky I am. Every night I fall asleep next to my best friend, someone who probably thinks I would look good in a potato sack. My family are so beautiful and supportive of everything I do and I couldn’t be happier and prouder of all of them and their achievements. I study something I love and although sometimes it can be testing, as all studying is, I know that every class I attend and every assignment I do, I’m working towards a life time of saving lives. I work at what I think is probably the best veterinary clinic you could go to and I work with the most amazing, funny and friendly group of people ever. I have enough money to look after myself, my pets and then have money to spare. I have a car, laptop, phone, house, clothes, healthcare etc - things the majority of people in the world do not. I live in a country that is mostly fair and just, and is one of the safest places I could be. I don’t have everything I could ever want - no one has that - but you will never hear me complain about the cards I have been dealt.
