I feel bad because that first blog was so negative. It was probably hard to read, and boring, and something I’ve been working on avoiding: complaining. The reality is, some days are better than others. And I have made tremendous progress in my situation. The fact that I’m not at home all day, that I can function in the world like a normal person is in itself something I’m proud of. And, sometimes conversations do actually work a bit. I have a good understanding of what I’m dealing with. Soooooooo,  taking a deep breath, even in my dilapidated bamboozled state there are things in life to appreciate. There’s nature. The Mets! (okay, maybe not them) I like walking and observing all that’s going on. And I will get better. It’s not like I have a disease that can’t be cured. The hard part is having patience. And I will. It’s just some-days I feel like crying and giving up, and depressed and out of it…

Queens College is the most interesting school I’ve ever seen. I love college campuses in general, but Queens has the most diverse student body of any school I’ve ever seen. There are people in old age taking classes, people just out of high school, and I think it really makes the school a place that’s vibrant. There also are a lot of amazing professor’s (obviously not everyone, but in general). I want to give a shout out to two professor’s who’ve really helped me a lot. One is an English professor who is the coolest guy in the world in my opinion (besides yours truly), Professor Statum. I forgot the other one’s name but him too. Anyways, it’s really a fun school and we should all take a moment to appreciate it for what it is.———. Aight, there’s my school spirit for the semester. I’ve done my part. Now start commenting on my blog or I will be bored.

Best,

Lee
