• If the finish line of life is death, why not take a shortcut and get there without dealing with all the stress and agony? You can't judge somebody for being depressed based on what you see of them. You are not allowed to say "But they seem so happy" and especially not "But they seemed so happy." No "They have nothing to be sad about. They have a good life." Everyone deals with things differently. People don't show how they really feel at the core. Some people might not find this college application shit stressful and hard and impossible and tear-worthy. Most people have at least one parent that went to college. *Some* people only have one parent that even graduated. *Some* people have dads who get mad at them for trying to get into college. (Makes sense.) And to *some* people, this could set them off into the feeling of "What's the fucking point of life if we're just going to die? Why deal with this shit?" Looking at *some* people, you'd think they were the happiest person alive. Because they are the nicest person alive. Because they laugh at everything. Because they never complain. But people hide how they feel. They even forget how they feel until someone reminds them. And then the chemicals kick in to jolt you back into reality. *Some* people get lost in the clouds. These people, dare I say it, are like werewolves. They look like normal people most of the time. But once in a while, the full moon comes out and changes them. Puts them into their bad side. Turns them ugly. Destructive. That's not who they *really* are. It's just their core. But that core is ugly. And it comes out. And all in all, this is who they really are. Just because it looks like they have a good life doesn't mean they do. *Some* people have to work a shit retail job. *Some* people have to deal with the fact that they don't have consistent friends. That they've never had a serious (or real) relationship with Anyone. And on top of this, *some* people have to deal with parents that, while aren't bad, don't have any idea about college. Their parents seem to think that it just comes to them. That these people know just what to do, how to do it, when to do it. Like it's Candy Land. So the parents get mad when their child isn't at Candy Castle even though there is no Candy Castle, there's "College" or "Career." But even that game forgets a direction: "Dead End Summer Job" Life is hard. You may be good at it, but *some* people aren't. It's stressful. It's agonising. It's painful. It's depressing. Aurevoir
