YES. I felt the need to post at 10:23 PM, way past my bedtime mind you but Shivam has convinced me that sleeping is for the weak. D: Last Thursday night (the night before decisions came out) I couldn't sleep. I woke up at least 5 times during the night, and instead of thinking about the decisions, all I could think about was that Shivam would be really proud of me at this moment for getting only 5 hours of sleep :p Of course I told him the next day and he just laughed.

I've realized more and more that there are certain people in this world I will never accept nor will I respect. Of course, I hold no grudges, but it's just a new thought. A year ago, I would have told you that I'm capable of accepting every person because I believe in the innate good that is in every person. I still haven't discarded this idea but rather have added to it. I've realized that environment has a way of masking the innate good to the point where finding that good is nearly impossible. However, I've only seen this transformation in a few people, and the majority is still innately good. I say this because I see a person who attacks others for his own benefit and to feel superior. It's all attributed to his environment, one in which he's always the center of attention. Often times, this person reminds me of a spoiled child, who never matured. The arrogance is astounding, and perhaps I don't know of his situation, but I know enough to understand that his arrogance and immorality are not simply masks but embody his true self. It really is a shame.

But ironically, in midst of this, the goodness in others shines more apparently in contrast. I see people who stand up to this person and openly express their criticisms without fear of judgment. And wow...how respectable. I can only hope to be one of those people in the future, but that's what this self improvement is for right?

Ahhh my battery's running low so I will post more later!
