I'm impressed by how you take all that, how you deal around with it and most importantly being able to share it with us. My childhood wasn't necessarily hard, however my father left us for quite some time and my parents divorced after that - I never really had the dad-experiences that other kids have.
Your attitude is truely remarkable and I will try to overcome my lazyness and start to work hard for what I really want. I had it easy, compared to you, so far however at the moment I feel like I throw it all away for nothing.

good on you for being a hard studier... sounds a lot like my dad's life he said he worked real hard 'cos he wanted to get out of the poor lifestyle, although he now says education really has nothing much at all to do with life (but can build good habits)

Do I feel unfortunate? No. Do I feel resentment towards my parents? No. Should anyone experience what I experienced? No. Every child deserves a stable home with loving parents. Do I feel fortunate? YES! All that I had to experience taught me so much and enabled me to become the person that I am today: a caring friendly person who helps others. I even have a group of close friends from High School - we still talk to eachother on a daily basis. If I ever have the tendency to feel sad for myself, I think of all those people stuck in Africa without basic needs. They got it hard. I think of the people who fight in wars and see death firsthand. They got it hard. Not me, not us.


That is just so awesome. I like your way of thinking and looking at things. Read my latest blog entry, it basically reads like you copied that, though I know you didn't. It was actually the reason for one girl to turn down a relationship offer, because she thought I actually drew strength from the suffering of others, but well, women are maybe just not that good at all that thinking and stuff.

I had absolutely no idea that your life has been this, well, diverse. I've seen similar things, but my parents were not that fucked up, thankfully. I'm glad to hear you're on a good way man. Hopefully we can celebrate our graduation together in a couple of years, you a psychology major and me a PhD in physics

4/5 for lack of naked women though.
Nobody ever reads signatures of people like me, do they?

I've been through the same kind of thing, I lost a loved parent around middle school and it made me end up focusing more on the serious part of life for a lot of my school years. To me it's very motivating to know people like you can can make the most of things and do well

I don't think I could respond in a post worthy of this blog, so I'll just say 5/5 stars. Excellent and inspirational!

You seem a very strong person. Congratulations for turning your life around like that, I wish I could be more like you.
Wish I could rate more than a 5/5 for the effort you put. Exceptional.

I can't believe I just gave Beyonder a 5/5, or for that matter read through to the end the blog.

"even if I’ll be significantly older than most of the others in my year. I’m happy and not going to screw this up."

you do well not to worry about that.. when u are hanging out with you pals at the ripe old age of 80 years old, believe me, you will chuckle at any 75 year old who says he graduated before you..jeje

"I will enable myself to make a difference in the life of others. For that is what I desire most, as futile as it may be on the larger scale."

nice prose & goal

Good assessment of your life. It’s nice to see someone who does not break down and experience self-pity during what you've gone through. I hope that you find greater insight about what you say is your objective in life ( helping people) in the course you entered. gg gl
