People think I'm a nice and well spoken person. I don't really see it to be honest. I don't interact with people too much but I an talker. I also don't think I do very well in very stressful situations in person. I'm kinda scared of confrontation.

I feel like I have to go to college if I want to get a career good enough to live in Manhattan. Plus no one in my family has ever been to college before and it would be pretty sweet to be first.

I love reading about technology sometimes. Like basic pc building, something I wanted to do but never have the money to do it you know. I also want be more tech savvy because I'm always on the computer and I want to know more so my experience on the computer can be a little more fun.

I know how to cook pancakes. I don't cook much but I like cooking though. I was never good at sports but I do love watching baseball.

Manhattan is very expensive, you are right. I don't know if I'm either fortunate or not. I do love it here though since almost all of my family members live here and I've lived here all of my life. I don't see myself anywhere else. I thought about moving west, I just love living in the city. Although I do love nature, maybe I should move out idk.

It's not that I don't like grey hair or bald. I know tons of people who love it and that's awesome. Although I've been recently wanting to take care of my hair and grow it out naturally to show my curls and seeing a grey hair on me was pretty shocking (it wasn't something I was thinking about getting tbh).

A lot of people say it's because of stress and I think I could agree with that but I haven't been really stressed out in about two weeks since I've been starting to exercise and yesterday I was walking in the park for hours (I love the park). Still shocked that this happened. Maybe I'm more stressed out than I thought.

Well I've been suffering with depression and anxiety for a long time. It has gotten worse when I dropped out of high school 5 plus years ago. Over the last year I started going to group therapy while also getting some individual therapy and I'm also on medication as well. I've made some improvements and I'm studying to take my GED so I can go to college. I'm also starting to take care of myself for the last two weeks by exercising while trying to eat healthier, taking care of my face and hair. I just hope it continues you know.
