#vent:

might have to draw some vent art about my horrific university experience to cope with the Many Things i am feeling about the uni tour event i'm going to tomorrow

people are generally very nice to me for no reason. like there are rude people but usually there’s additional factors for why they are being rude. but most people are just nice for no reason. they have shit to worry about, they have shit to do, but they’re friendly and polite. most of my life, most people have been nice to me. there are exceptions, of course, but… i don’t know. i expected worse, i guess. i was told it’d be a dog eat dog world, but it’s more of a “dog sees another dog and starts wagging its tail” world. and all the cruelty is the anomaly, i think. i was told people are bad by nature, but i don’t see it. i see a lot of misled people. i see a lot of scared people. i see SOME bad people. but that’s a shadowy face of a world that is so full of decency. so much more decency than i ever expected. it could be good. we could be so good.

life is hard but at least I live close to an arboretum.
