Sent at 4:47 AM on Friday
steve: hi tim
im pretty busy but we can talk a bit
how are u
Tim: im good
my friend
started talking about a friend of his that says she's suicidal
and stuff and really pisses him off how she's always like that
so after a while it got me depressed
cuz i started thinking about a lot of stuff
but im fine otherwise
what about u?
that night that i talked with melissa, we talked a lot
but i haven't been able to talk to her really at all after that
i don't know where she went, and what happened
it could be my timing, though
but it was weird
oh wait
hold on a sec
ok, so, the 2nd time i managed to get a hold of her, though, we
talked a little and after she said brb for dinner she left
lol
it's funny how u came on tonight like this, when i just decided
to go on ur website
i don't go on it as much anymore, since ive read most stuff on it
but occasionally i find something i haven't read
sorry im talking so much
lol
would it be better if we talked on msn or something when we talk
like this?
or is this fine?
steve: well really i cant talk
much but i can read. im doing several things at once online
related to my hostel
bookings, etc
i have several email accounts and im checking them etc
n reading bout another hostel in this country
http://www.hostelworld.com/availability.php/Youth-Hostel-Spasic-Masera/Kotor/16469
read the reviews ha ha they are funny
hope mine doesnt get such bad reviews one day!
n idont use msn much anymore
im also working on couchsurfing stuff now for alex who is staying
here
trying to find him a place to stay in kotor
Tim: oh i see
and k, ill look at that site lol
and oh, then this is probably a good thing to use then
to talk, that is
oh wow
overall rating 48%
lol
steve: yeah and read the
reviews.. there are about 6
Tim: k
lol
"My room's bathroom had not been cleaned,"
wow, really? LOL
wow!!
yeah, i hope u don't get reviews like this either
lol
steve: lol
Tim: if u want to explain, how
did u get to the point where u could own ur own hostel?
how did u do it?
ive been wondering the past few days
well
not really wondering but
it just sort of passed through my mind once or twice
and i talked to my brother about it
anyway
is all that's really important in life is to get a good job and
good education?
that's what it seems like to everyone such as school teachers and
parents
typical ones, anyway
they always say "You need to do well in school to be
successful when you're older."
just...
please
why is it so important?
i don't think a lot of people think of life other than what
society places on them
get a car, get a job, get a house
no one thinks about discovering and helping the world
finding out what's wrong with it in things such as religion and
war
why war really happens
brb
back
steve: i cant really answer
questions now except yes or no ones lol
Tim: lol k
steve: ive just got too many
wiindoews open and stuff to do before the next guests come
Tim: alright lol
steve: but ill say that to
open a hostel the best thing to do is save ur money and travel
and visit other hostels
u dont even need a high school degree! no one cares wen theysleep
here
Tim: haha
yeah, i guess like, after visiting all sorts of other hostels, u
get familiar with how hostels work and everything like that
what happened to that girl valerie?
steve: yeah
Tim: oh, sorry
that's not a yes or no question
lol
steve: ha h
Tim: i do wanna know though
i still have the desire to help others and stuff
but
what's occurred to me after a while is that
it takes a lot to help
well, i mean
that's obvious
but uhhh
like i don't know
u need to be able to connect with the other person in order to
really help them
get to know them
can't just give them advice
just be there to...
lol
i don't know why i hadn't thought about it like this before
hold on a sec
ok anyway
i mean like
thought about it in such a way that
people don't
want help
but they need it
and not like... need it as in a physical need or whatever like
that
but
lol
u know what i mean
one sec again
but anyway
the things on ur site
pretty much present this
lol
steve: hey can u do me a fav
and not hit entero often so i dont have to scroll up? lol is hard
with my lptop mouse pad th9ing
Tim: oh
k, ill try
steve: this is100 oercent true
u need to be able to connect with the other person in order to
really help them
get to know them
can't just give them advice
Tim: this is the way i type to
people online, so that's why it ends up like this
haha
that's cool
glad i had it down like that
i think a lot of people don't think about that
i mean, most people don't think of helping in such a way
the way most people think of it is the... well, they don't think
that they would have to develop a relationship with the person
they want to help the most
steve: k..
u r right again
mean like
thought about it in such a way that
people don't
want help
but they need it
and not like... need it as in a physical need or whatever like
that
but
they do need it. but they dont "want" it in the typical
way
what they want is what I call es
emotonal spport
Tim: yeah
steve: undersanding, caring -
those may be the two biggest
Tim: yeah
there are those, also, that don't even realize the power of a
friendship that has an emotional bond. there are some people
that, or i should say most people i guess, that think that
friendships are... well, friends are people to have fun with
and they don't think that there are friends who they can cry with
and love
some don't even care what their friends think about certain
matters of theirs
some people don't allow relationships with an emotional bond to
be possible
because they don't realize that they need it
or something like that
or they just
push people away
im trying to catagorize typical people right now
let me see, um. let me go from where i left off. well, some
people are too insecure about themselves to have emotional
relationships too
now that im thinking of it, why is it considered unprofessional
to connect with ur patients as a psychologist or psychiatrist?
hmm, actually, i could think of many reasons why people would
consider it so
lol
i think that the fact a psychologist would want to act
professional in the terms of how society sees it that way it
actually making them less professional
it's actually sort of ironic
if a psychologist would seek to connect with another patient,
they could really help them with their problems and work them
through them
the fact that they don't do that makes it impossible to
understand certain problems in an individual, which where the
irony comes up
it seems they are less professional now, since they cannot fully
understand everything of a patient
so this position that psychologists take is unprofessional when
they strive to look professional
there's a word im looking for for something like this but i can't
quite think of it
it's just crazy that it comes to this
people really need to think of what is really professional and
unprofessional
people need to break these social rules and constraints
we need to be more open with each other, ask another a question
when we are curious; think about all the things in life, and what
is restricted and regarded as foolish unnecessarily
question school, perhaps?
why we need to do this and this and this to get this certificate
which will help with this and this and this
why is it needed at all?
why do we need to do this and this and this in the first place?
there are some that argue that society wouldn't function properly
if things weren't the way they are now
well, have u ever thought of what we could do to change the
stupidity of things AND keep society functioning?
optimism needs to be encouraged!
if i were to bring up questions like these to actual school
officials, i would get avoidance answers and lectures on
information that is unimportant like "You're in school so
you can be successful."
like i mentioned earlier
steve: yeah
i got so sck of the shitty answes
did u see my page called "intelligent answers"?
Tim: i think so lol
but im gonna look for it again
steve: k
grrrrrrrr
sap
stupd annoying pple
lo
Tim: yep...
steve: l
Tim: they've all been
brainwashed pretty much
k, i found the page
lol
"because it is wrong"
i get this a lot
let's see what else i get a lot
lol
"because I said so "
so often from my mom
because I told you to
same thing
lol
"because he is my son"
yeah... this once in a while
i think
ahhh
most of these actually
no point in naming anymore lol
all of these are typically what is out there all the time
ughh
AHHH
why???!!
Because I am not used to letting her do it
sighs
lol
oh yeah
i have this case for something in the Bible that i typically
challenge to Christians and i always get the same answer, or at
least similar ones
ok, well, there's something in the bible where being gay is wrong
and what not
and well, i researched it and learned overtime that, it's a
natural thing to be a different sexuality such as that
so...
when i ask christians why being gay or bi or whatever is a sin,
the answer of "it's a choice" comes up a lot, or
"Whether or not those people are that way, they are still
wonderful people and...", and then, well, they don't even
think about this at all as deeply as i do
and i tell them to go look it up
but there's really no point to that lol
they don't realize that they are supporting something that is
treating some aspect of life in people unfairly
so some people should be treated as if they've sinned while
others don't regardless of whether it's a choice or not?
most people just regard it as a choice and remain ignorant about
it though
which is kinda sad
"because it's not polite" get that from my mom really
often too
"I don't know. I never really thought about it. It's just
what everyone else says or does." haha, yes, that is awesome
but yeah, i have seen this page before as i thought lol
ahhh, are u really offline? aww
i hope u got most of what i last said

Tim: I know why people kill themselves. I can
understand why people give up. S. Hein
so can i, so can i...
ive come so far
2 years ago i was so naive
my stupid religion made me that way
and being uneducated by my mom
until i started talking to people and getting depressed myself
and eventually reading ur site i now understand so much about
human way and behavior
at least to a certain extent where i feel informed
it makes me feel empowered
lol
eventually i found out what was really important in life
not people judgments or anything like that
hey ur back!
yay!
lol
steve: yeah have to go real
soon tho
Tim: did u lose anything of
what i said that u know of?
i think that... in ur gmail account u can look at ur chat logs
yeah, u should be able to
ive done it a couple times
hey, how can i volunteer to help in a suicide hotline?
if u have the time to explain
lol
otherwise i can probably just google it, like i google everything
else
i learn so much online
so so much that i just want to share with people, when i find
things that are misinterpreted for no reason
steve: yeah
ok i better go
Tim: ok
steve: but do u know how to
make web pages?
Tim: uhhh, i don't
i could have learned
