It's odd, how you can see some one and speak with them on a weekly basis, and yet still not know anything about them.
I go to an online academy, so often times you end up chatting with people that you'd never become friends with, never even consider talking to in real life. It's an amazing world out there, filled with potential, and if you give people time, you'll rarely be disappointed. And even if you are...what's so bad about that? Not everybody is friend material, and that's alright.
Today I opened up to some girls in my class, via email. I told them my hobbies and age, and suddenly, they came alive. Girls who I have no hope of meeting irl, whose faces are smudges of paint unused and barely remembered in my mind, suddenly comfortable around each other.
One loves crocodiles, another is an avid Sherlock fan. One knows four languages. One has a father in the military (that's me, actually)
Who did you meet today?
