ugh i’m actually doing this, then.
looking up different universities to see what their policies are on transferring. i’m so disappointed with queen’s.
for some reason the webcam on my laptop isn’t working anymore.. irritatinggg. anyway, i’m out for dinner tonight (i know, dinner). but it’s only with two people so hopefully i’ll be fine. freddie is back, and it is lovely. it’s insane when you miss someone so much.
things are going to be alright, eventually.

The Four Principles of Spirituality

Whomsoever you encounter is the right one. Whatever happened is the only thing that could have happened. Each moment in which something begins is the right moment. What is over is over.

i have to go to MASS tonight. how fucking ridiculous. it’s all well and good to respect the fact that everyone has a right to practise whatever idiotic religion they want, but it is also well and good to spend your life trying to show people how fucking stupid they’re being.

I don’t have many followers on tumblr. And mostly, I don’t mind. I’m on it a lot less than I used to be, which is only a good thing, and what I post, I post mostly for myself. But occasionally I get a notification that someone new is following me.

My face is covered in burst blood vessels, but today, aside from this morning, has gone okay- I have eaten, I’ve been full, I’ve been hungry, and...
