I find it very bizarre that I’ve never had a real crush on anybody. You know, those heart-wrenching, can’t-think-of-anything-but-you kind of crushes. Not once. They were more like, “Ah, you intrigue me” kind of a thing. hmm.

I believe that love exists. And I love reading about how one person falls head over heels for another. But I just can’t put my hand down and say that I know it exists for me too.

"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken...."

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be vulnerable.”

- C.S. Lewis (via kari-shma)

Hi guys

Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:05:15 -0500

I just felt like saying Hi :) It’s been a while

I was hoping to get some down time to do quite a few things during winter break (including DoL updates) but I was trying to get my intern hours done for school (unpaid by the way -sigh-) so I was barely conscious other than the hours I was at work. And spring ‘13 has resumed as of last week. Ah, school. Well, I’m usually slightly more active on tumblr during school anyways (as a way of procrastination, hehe). Wouldn’t it be great if we had two bodies that shared the same mind? One could play all day and the other could study and all would be satisfied. Is that too weird?

As for the social world, I feel like I’m in limbo. I’ve got to know some people, but I just make them really awkward around me, you know? It’s quite hilarious when I think about it after. I like the people, I just can’t express it. It’s like my loner habits have stuck so hard on me that I seem incapable of moving closer to anyone. Maybe I’ve just become too self-centered or something.

Anyways, how’s everybody’s life going?

To my LGBT friends,

Tue, 20 Nov 2012 13:08:00 -0500

Just to introduce myself, I am withoutmuchconsciousness, and I currently run Dilemmas of a Loner (though they’re both pretty inactive). I’m a Pharmacy student and my group had decided to write a paper on the effects of smoking for the LGBT community. In the middle of reading through all the research material we put together, I sincerely felt alarmed and felt the need to announce this. So let me apologize first if this post offends you in any way. I mean sincere good.

If you are of the LGBT population, Stop smoking now.

Cigarette companies have been maliciously targeting the LGBT population to increase their sales. Since the 90’s Philip Morris of the Malboro brand has been providing sponsors to LGBT magazines by putting ads in for their cigs. This has led to a false image to the LGBT community that such large corporations are in support of their identification, which shall lead to other areas of the market to acknowledge that this population exists.

However, this is not the case. Cig companies purposely include multiple men and women in their ads to blur the dominant heterosexual male image. Yet, the heterosexual population do not realize that such an undertone has been taken.

Also, they put ads in the bars purposely. You may say that bars are for everyone. It’s to increase overall sales. But research has indicated that many LGBT rely on bars to socialize and therefore, the LGBT are much more prone to those ads. You think that those corporations don’t know this? Oh, I’m sure they do.

We all know that smoking is never good for the body. However, many LGBT don’t realize that still, many insurance companies and medical facilities discriminate against the LGBT population, even in the US. This is obviously wrong, but we are waiting for a law to be passed against such discrimination. But whilst that is being worked on, do you really want to face the dire consequences?

Lastly, the biggest issue is that the LGBT population thinks that smoking and drinking is almost a given when you are LGBT, to deal with the stress and whatnot. Don’t fall for it. You make the choice.

So stop now, whilst you still can.

There are programs that will not discriminate and help you quit such as Quitline or the National LGBT Tobacco Control Network. Just google it.

Convo between my sister and her friend

Thu, 01 Nov 2012 22:33:00 -0400

whilst talking about something else, this comes up.
my sister: my sister's a loner
her friend: hey, so is mine! she thinks everybody's too young for her.
my sister: haha, so does mine.
her friend: they should totally be friends since they go to the same school!
my sister: yeah, but it wouldn't work out.
her friend: why?
my sister: answering in single word sentences is what my sister calls "socializing".
she told me she said this and I laughed so hard, because that's half of what I do, but hey, I'd say I'm a good listener. =)

(・ω・)ノ Hello, I am the new co-owner of this blog. I’m kinda new at this. And um, should I say a little more about me? I like cats, my favorite color is blue, I don’t really listen to music that often, I watch too much TV, I’m kinda bad at remembering to study, and my name is Maria, but I am also known as Antema.
