"Sometimes when I feel really crappy, I look at the Facebook profiles of all the douches who made fun of me during middle/high school. That usually makes me feel better."

"I hate this artist, but I really want to sing this to someone now:
'Come back, come back, come back to me like
you could, you could, if you just said you're sorry
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie, you'd be here by now...' :("

"I abhor how shallow so many people are here. We're supposed to be some of the smartest people on Earth, right? But it seems like a lot of us aren't capable enough to make meaningful connections, to reflect, to feel, to care, to express, or to experience life in a vivid way... In the year I have spent here, I haven't met very many people who are aware, and who make an effort to be increasingly more aware, of themselves and other people; who live with passion; who see past the meaningless, superficial social norms and interactions. And it seems like everyone else lives without really feeling or seeing anything. Many seem satisfied with being stagnant in every aspect of the self. We do and say such stupid, pointless things and think it's cool, or actually truly believe ignorant, and sometimes hateful things. A lot of us are too insecure to respect and appreciate each other, and too insecure/ignorant to be critical of ourselves. I can't even try to buy into that kind of culture, and sometimes I feel alone and wonder if it would be better if I could be satisfied with little meaning, but it's impossible for me to close my eyes. I don't understand some people here, even though I really try to. It makes me depressed."

You are not alone. Ive never been on a date with a girl and somehow I hoped that college would be different. Silly on me to expect that, considering that I am unattractive and socially awkward. Well, I don't know what is the male equivalent of an old spinster with nine cats is, but that is probably my future. "

"540 and 544 make me really sad. I feel like people make judgements about Bexley without having met any of the residents, and that is simply not fair. They are some of the coolest/most-chill people on this campus, and believe it or not, don't want to destroy your shit. Sure they like to play around, but they will respect your space and the effort people have made to assist them. And imagine how you would feel if someone posted that they don't want you and your friends to have a home."
