About the GrumpyQueen


A.K.A Gatekeeper

I love food, don't deprive me of it.

I'm not Princess, I'm Queen

I can be quite grumpy and when I am, I hide here, my dungeon for reflections, ramblings and ranting.

Whatever I write are opinions, and may not be the whole truth. Do not read it like the Gospel.

I hate as vehemently as I love
I already know I'm crazy, be my friend, it's safer

Different is not bad, just not the same as the rest

If you don't like me, it's probably mutual
But I'm nice, really :p

Day 18



Day 18 in a psy ward. Not as a patient but a nurse. :p

I feel like I'm finally at home, I feel like it's what I'm born to do. I also feel I could do much more, given time.

I wanna write these thoughts down because I'm afraid I'll lose them as time goes by. I might stop believing in my ability to do much more as time flies by.

Trust me, I've seen/experienced so much in these 18 days, probably more than what an average person would see/experience in 18 months. I cannot go into explicit details though I wish I could.

1) Things aren't always what it seems
2) Mental patients are not strapped to beds 24/7
3) They're human beings, not psychopaths locked up so they don't harm innocent people
4) We do not drug them until they become gong gong and remain drowsy all day long
5) We do not lock them up in those padded cells with a small glass window like what you see on TV
6) What you see on TV is rubbish, they have a psy problem, they're not retarded, with saliva dripping out of their mouths. The actors/actress do a lousy job acting as a mental patient. They're mentally ill, not retarded. I actually believe some are smarter than us.
7) I think people with a tidak apa attitude have minimal chance of developing mental illness. People who take life seriously usually have a higher chance

I know. Random facts I picked out on the job.
