"I don't understand how ugly guys have any room to talk about the attractiveness of girls at MIT..."

"I have off and on bouts of depression, self hatred, and suicidal thoughts, but I am too scared to go to Mental Health. I've heard so many conflicting opinions, I'm not sure what to believe. I have never acted on any of my darker thoughts, and I'm terrified of going in, only to be put on medical leave for something I have been dealing with since middle school. When I do need help, I end up just convincing myself to wait until I'm done with this place and it's safe to admit I have issues."

"I care about your HASS classes. Next time don't be like "I'm taking [technical class 1], [technical class 2], [technical class 3] and some HASS." Tell me about it. Because I guess you care about it too."

"I fell for the greatest guy this summer. So great, he even caused me to get over a guy I've been hung up on forever. But logistically, it would never work out. Part of me wants to screw logic and just go for it, but I know that's not going to end well. Now I'm stuck trying to get over yet another amazing guy. "

"They tell you that MIT is the hardest thing you're ever going to go through, and life is a piece of cake after that. But actually, not everything can be measured by how difficult your MIT experience is. There are many many more smarter people in the world who exist outside of MIT; and your life can be hard cuz it just is...academics don't have to be involved for life to be hard. I used to think after graduating from MIT I'm ready to take on the world, but found out later (in a painful way) that just because I suffered through problem sets after problem sets didn't mean that I knew how to solve all problems that come with growing up.

"Reason why I chose MIT: awesome sex during CPW."

"IHTFP: I have truly found paradise: no warning from CAP and a loving relationship. Yes, there are going to be people who know who I am but idgaf. I got off warning after the hardest year of my life: parents filing for divorce, two grandparents dying, my grandma's cancer resurfacing, a jerk i don't wanna talk about, hating all my classes, professors that were prejudice against me and depression. Yes, I was depressed but even the mental health counselor couldn't help me as I felt she didn't try which is sad. (I am going to go back this fall and switch people.)
Last fall was the most alone I have felt in my life. I hope no one else will experience this. I will always be there if anyone needs me."
