"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"Well for one I'm just sad a lot of the time, I guess we could call that depression at this point, and I often act happy and good natured, and I'm trying to transition away from the religion of the masses here in St George, but I don't expect any of them to be able to understand, so I keep it to myself. Whenever I talk to them I feel like I'm constantly filtering what I really want to say because they wouldn't be ok with it"

And I'm not close enough with any of my teachers to share this kind of stuff with them...that's a good way to look at it, thank you.”"
