The WHAT THE HELL SHIN in review

In my entire decade... this is just pretty much sums it up.



Really. Everything else just pretty MINOR in comparison. Lots of bullshit from life in general and the only major thing outside of... well... internets would be moving several states away from home. But still, it WAS thanks to the INTERNETS that I had met someone decent enough to offer me a place to stay and etc etc etc.

However trivial the internet may seem, it was an important decade of my life. Prior to owning a computer or a modem, I had had lived in a very tiny world in an aging town. I had virtually bare minimum experiences of knowing people outside of deaf culture and abroad. But thanks to the internet, I had met SO many people in that decade and just meeting these awesome people and so much reading online had not only taught me so much about myself but how everyone had lived from that refreshing perceptive. GFF do make up a part of it, but really, its people everywhere. Friends of friends or a random chatroom or boards like this one had contributed so much on top of all sorts of things I had read online. I couldn't take this decade back if I tried, and it's very well worth it for the education I've never gotten, at least in such a profound way.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
