i like gaining knowledge and checking their sources. on occasion i edit articles on wikipedia. right now, iām obsessed with studying math on it. i usually always land on the page about quaternions. def donāt use wikipedia as your source of knowledge though, make sure to check citations and read yourself!!!

I adore wikipedia and my favourite part of the articles is the references and external links list. a deeper dive into the subject/topic. they always include research papers as well! love it so much.

What a resourceā¦ At any given time I will have several Wiki tabs open. At the moment, Iām reading articles on Boethius, POSIWID, Counting Cards and the Cornball Express (Roller Coaster). Admittedly, I have never donated a dime to this site.Ā

-there was a recent time where i met someone, someone very sweet and interesting. we talked and talked, and no matter how much i'd ever see them again, i was okay with myself. to me, they were an anomaly in the people i met, because they were that remarkable to me. i walked away from them fulfilled, as i repeated to myself in my head "even if i don't see them again i'll be okay".
-i've always held on to those kinds of experiences, minus the acceptance. that's what's new with this one.
-first it was holding on to the memories of people who i couldn't see anymore due to moving, then it was holding on to the things we did. in elementary, the people that befriended me had a binder and we'd draw and play characters all written in that one binder during recess.
-one of those friends, kaden, moved away in 6th grade without telling anyone. with how much i've moved state to state, i completely understand why he did that or why he couldn't do anything about it. i've thought about disappearing, without anyone looking or having to worry about me. but, me being the person i am i couldn't forget him.
-the last move i have to do is this year. it won't even be out of my control because of it's that of college. my house won't be *my house* and it won't retain the shape it wrapped me around with.
-i live in myself and i'm learning to stop disappearing from myself, because in the end that is impossible.
-so, when i met this said person recently, i acknowledged that i could miss this person forever, but also the hope to meet people like them that i could keep forever. that there are good people i can be good to
so, when i leave, i want to accept that *things can happen again*. don't know if this made much sense

- happy snowstorm to those experiencing it.
over time iāve been quite used to my environment changing around me. i know with how much control iāve exhibited that it hasnāt been a case of myself lacking control or my *will* being meaningless, but rather the way i wake up.
- in the past few months, i shut myself off in attempts to minimize whatever i was feeling. iām still guilty of it but,
looking at pictures of myself before i turned out this way makes me see that even if i canāt see how my behaviorās changed, i can see the physical.
this is a very stupid and literal reference, but āchangesā by david bowie goes as such:
/ Ch-ch-changes, just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I canāt trace time
/
time will change us. no matter what, but our efforts will amount to something if we try imitating its grip!
facing it first, (grimly) succumbing to time could be what makes us change.
thereās times where my change isnāt my priority. iām guilty of wondering how other people think of me now, when i will never be able to know such āhowsā.
i get scared, terrified of how someone else may have changed, and like with how the physical changes are the most obvious, the aspect that sets in the most fear for me is seeing how people physically change. itās an odd feeling.
you meet who youāre going to be in the future, in each fleeting moment, but once that isnāt in your control, and youāre facing what you canāt lie about, you canāt stop how your environment changes. people look different, their perceptions of you change. all you can do is think what you could do differently, or accept everything.
accept who youāre going to be and everything youāre not.
