What’s one totally random thing you’re genuinely grateful for?

[Apulu_backagain]

I am extremely lucky because my high school experience wasn't interfered. Lockdown ended with my 8th grade and in unfortunate case the potential world war will start after my 12th grade. I had the 4 years all for me and drama and gossips.

I am graduating high school this year!! Yayy, I would rate the experience a solid 6/10. I have already appeared physics and chemistry finals. I only have Math, English, economics and music left, all scoring subjects. More 13 days before my freedom.

Jk, after finals we are preparing for entrance tests! Gahhh

Can I say I technically grew up in GaG? I have been here since I was 13 year old. I am gonna be 18 in coming August.

It might sound like a clichѐ but... it's my computer. With some smart shoppin', not listenin' to manufacturers' marketing tricks and propaganda, trusting only my own instincts and experience, I managed to build (built it myself, I don't trust pre-built computers) a great computer with less than $1500 which doesn't care about games' system requirements - just buy and play. While staying twice cooler than any other random computer. So cool that people often don't believe me it stays in the range of 25-30°C (both CPU and GPU) when idling, until I show them a screenshot or a video. Largely responsible for these temperatures are the cleverly placed 5 fans AND the OS.

Other people pay $5000 or more and still get a stove that won't drop below 60°C in idle. :D

[Apulu_backagain]

Damn that's great

I'm grateful that when I drive next to people, they trust me not to distract myself, to look, to acknowledge their presence, and not hit them and cause us both to spin out and go into a ditch where neither of us would survive the impact when our necks snap as the car hits the concrete drains.

I can even match their exact speed and drive right next to them, and we trust eachother with these massive machines. Without this trust in eachother, we'd still be walking around

[Apulu_backagain]

It is crazy how much our lives depends on strangers around us.

[RandomGirl42]

Lol! That's actually awesome that you grew up on G@G! They say , It takes a village to raise a child. In this case, it's just an internet village! 🤣

And congratz on graduating from jail! Yay! I was a solid D student who majored in Daydreaming. 😳

Oh, and random grateful thing of the day is prolly squirrels. They just make me laugh sometimes. 😊

[Apulu_backagain]

Definitely it was the internet village. Lockdown as a 13 year old would have screwed me over if not for GaG.

I love squirrels too! There are many around here. Sadly there was a dead squirrel on the bathroom water bucket few weeks ago, the image haunts me. It somehow entered the bathroom through the air vent and maybe jumped in the bucket half filled with water and wasn't able to get out or swim because of less diameter.

[RandomGirl42]

You didn't have to share THAT part of the story! 😭

[Apulu_backagain]

Holy ADHD, don't worry. I am sure you saw worse as a farm kid. The raising baby pigs to eat them later ritual in your home still haunts me.

[RandomGirl42]

Omg! You didn't have to bring up THAT story again either! Ok, so, like, I see we, as a responsible internet village, are going to have to teach you something here that they didn't teach you at school. If you ever want to get invited to parties stop telling depressing stories! 🤣

[Apulu_backagain]

That's why I don't have any friends after losing my last one to cancer! Got it. I will be the fun kid in college.

[RandomGirl42]

Ok, working with you might take more than a village...

[Apulu_backagain]

Lmao, got ya!

[katiesmuff]

Well I certainly hope you are able to make those goals and continue your education and end up as a positive addition to society.

[Apulu_backagain]

Obviously ma'am! I want to be disgustingly educated!

[Vesuvius87]

I'm not sure if this counts as a totally random thing but I'm grateful for my C-section. I couldn't give birth naturally and more water was dropping. My baby boy would've contracted infections.

I have to admit the recovery time and pain afterwards was longer. The pain the following day was a 10/10. But out of that, came my beautiful Sunshine who is now nearly 10 months old. That's the only pain I'm grateful for and bare the bikini scar mark with pride.

[Apulu_backagain]

That absolutely counts! My aunt had a similar case for both her boys but now everyone's healthy and happy. The baby is absolutely worth it!

[FreyaRed]

I'm grateful for gravitation. Without gravitation we would fly into space. Without gravitation there was no light because stars wouldn't burn. Without gravitation our universe wouldn't look like it is.

[Apulu_backagain]

Without gravitation we wouldn't exist!

[MontBlanc]

One random thing I’m genuinely grateful for is quiet mornings , just a few minutes to myself before the day starts.

It’s a small moment, but it gives me clarity, peace, and a chance to reset before life gets busy.

[Apulu_backagain]

Whenever I accidentally get up in a morning when I am not running on adrenaline for an upcoming test, I know the whole day is going to be sunshine and rainbows and all. I am trying to be like you!

[MontBlanc]

Haha.. I know that feeling.

Sometimes the best mornings are the ones where nothing is chasing you.

A little quiet time can really change the tone of the whole day.

I hope you get more of those peaceful mornings too!

[queenofcardio]

Congrats !

I'm randomly grateful for daylight saving time. I get to sleep an extra hour on Sunday.

[Apulu_backagain]

That's the best feeling and thanks!

[Simslover92]

Wow congrats!

I would say for me I am grateful for my two best friends. They have gotten me through so much.

[Apulu_backagain]

Thanks! Close friends are truly the best.

[Simslover92]

You're welcome and they are indeed!

[Anonymous]

I am grateful I was born with all limbs fully formed and functional, I am grateful I was born with perfect vision and I am also grateful I can hear.

[Apulu_backagain]

You are grateful for good things.

[Apulu_backagain]

You are technically my online dad by now lol.

Oh we love Nachos, you can never have enough of that.

[Still-alive]

You’re doing fine daughter lol 😂

[LiamJHayden]

Having inherited this house. No mortgage or rent, just property taxes and insurance, was a great way to begin (19) adulthood.

[Apulu_backagain]

That's a great start! Are property taxes and insurances less heavy compared to rent?

[Massageman]

A tech or nurse who can hit a vein on the first shot!

[Apulu_backagain]

Oh my we should appreciate them more!

[Anonymous]

The fact that the avg. Human being lives about 76 years. The odds state that I'm 2/3 through this 💩.

[Apulu_backagain]

I am around more than 1/4th of this shi too sir, it just never ends!

[Anonymous]

I can't think of anything (yes, my current life sucks).

[Apulu_backagain]

Hope you find one soon.

[Opinion Owner]

Thanks, I hope so too.

[robocop666]

The internet. Nikole tesla said a global thinking mind would help us

[Apulu_backagain]

Again, we love the internet. Tesla was always right.

[Unycorn]

For my parents & their love and care.

[Apulu_backagain]

That's sweet.

[Nikki1989]
