i've been blinded.

although, i live in a decent house with cable and high-speed internet connection next to a shopping mall, have upper-middle class friends, experiencing the best education my country can offer and have access to most things poor people can only dream of, doesn't mean i'm rich.

in fact, i'm living in poverty. my mother doesn't own the house we live in. the education i've had is mostly free, because of the scholarships. and, my friends are my friends because i'm lucky.

worst of all, i don't have a job and i'm still dependent. meaning, i have nothing. *tears*
