Sitting in bed amidst a mess of school papers, spirals, newspapers, books, sketchpads, pencils, charcoals, and electronic devices with nothing but natural sunlight illuminating my room, watching NCIS in a quiet apartment.
- Rita: But, Sam, you have to fight for her.
- Sam: Yeah, but I tried! I tried hard!
- Rita: Try harder!
- Sam: Yeah, but you don't know!
- Rita: I don't know what?
- Sam: You don't know what it's like when you try and you try and you try and you don't ever get there! Because you were born perfect, and I was born like this! And you're perfect!
- Rita: Is that right?
- Sam: People like you don't know.
- Rita: People like me?
- Sam: You don't know what it's like to get hurted, because you don't have feelings. People like you don't feel anything.
- Rita: You think you got the market cornered on human suffering? Let me tell you something about people like me. People like me feel lost and little and ugly and dispensable. People like me have husbands screwing someone else far more perfect than me. People like me have sons who hate them. And I've screamed horrible things to him, a seven-year-old, because he doesn't want to get in the car at the end of the day. And then he looks at me with such anger... and I hate him then. I know I'm failing you. I know I'm disappointing you. I know you deserve better, but get in the fucking car! Every morning, I wake up and I fail. And I look around, and everybody seems to be pulling it off, but somehow I can't... no matter how hard I try. Somehow...l'll never be enough.
- Sam: You're enough. Yeah, you're much more than enough.

- Dr. Marcia Fieldstone: What are you going to do?
- Sam Baldwin: Well, I'm gonna get out of bed every morning... breath in and out all day long. Then, after a while I won't have to remind myself to get out of bed every morning and breath in and out... and, then after a while, I won't have to think about how I had it great and perfect for a while.
Sing me to sleep (You’ve taken so much with you…)
I’ll see you in my dreams, (But left the worst with me…),
Waiting to say, “I miss you. I’m so sorry. I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

According to a new study, vegetarians and vegans are six times more likely to suffer from brain shrinkage than meat eaters.
The link was discovered after scientists at Oxford University ran memory tests, physical checks and brain scans on 107 people between the ages of 61and 87, and then retested them five years later.
Researchers speculate the loss of brain mass in vegetarians and vegans is due to a deficiency of Vitamin B12, which is found in meat, fish and eggs. This type of brain atrophy is linked to Alzheimer’s Disease and other cognitive failings.
The decision to eat meat is often attacked by veggies, but it now seems as though these kinds of affronts may just be a product of small-mindedness.
great. shrinkage. one more thing to worry about.
Great … now I have to worry about being stupid as well (y)
