Grammar and Loathing in Las Blog

Recently, I've been brushing up on my grammar. It's been a long time since I've done any sort of schooling, especially when it comes to English. Don't even get me started on how bad my math is, that's only gotten worse thanks to technology being so advanced. Of course, my education was better than most kids since I was homeschooled. I got to learn what I wanted, along with the basics, without time constraints.

Thanks to my mom being a super pack rat, I managed to find a lot of the old books I use to use when I was a kid. I should have paid attention more to my studies, but I also really hated learning as a child and teen. Now I can't get enough of it. I wish I had been one of those kids that was a really big nerd and wanted to further their academics. Instead I mostly hung out with other homeschool kids and played video games all day.

I still play a lot of games, but I've cut back severely. As for friends, I really don't have any. Mostly because I learned a little too late that homeschool kids are douchebags. Which I guess makes me a douchebag too. I already know I'm a horrible person, but I try to better myself. It's weird. I still consider myself a pessimist, but that's the opposite of what most people would think. If you know you're horrible, you may as well not get better, right? Not me!

Personally, I like being at the bottom of the totem pole. It gives me freedom to do what I want without consequences. Nobody hates me because nobody knows me. Praise inspires me because it's a rarity. That's why I feel bad for celebrities. They get praised all the time so they have no idea what is actually good, and the negativity they get isn't help to their improvement.

I never want to stop improving.
