Well if its true and the word you forgot was Nigger, I recommend writing the word in an obvious place so not to forget it again. I mean we can’t have people running around unable to tell everyone there is a nigger about. Therefore, I would recommend your forehead, which can be seen in the mirror.

Doctor. Thinking about doing research on genetics also

When I was a kid, I was a genius. I'd gone through Kafka's entire body of work and plenty of Freud and Jung by age 13. At 16, I had a mental breakdown that was so bad, I had to re-learn how to read using books for babies. By the age of 21 I'd gotten most of my abilities back, but then I was diagnosed with ME/CFS and now I can't read for more than a few minutes at a time without getting exhausted and needing to rest. I feel like the dude from Flowers for Algernon. It hurts so much to be smart and then become a brainlet.

That's the entire point of me doing this degree. I'm a complete autist, life confuses me and I don't want any interpersonal relationships, but if I don't keep myself busy day and night I start craving those things and it makes me horribly depressed. I'm obsessed with medicine, it's really the only thing that gives me happiness and makes me feel fulfilled and needed. Why shouldn't I devote my entire life to that?

I don't know yet. Maybe some kind of surgery. Maybe urology or nephrology. I can't quite describe why dicks and piss fascinate me so much.

what is the DEEPEST thing you've read? what's the book that made you go: "whoa... really made me think.."
