mediocrity.

You know how you get extremely bored sometimes and have simply nothing to do, so you go online? And then you get bored being online so you just stay online, even though you don't really want to be online? But you still stay on, and don't do anything necessarily what you would call .. productive. So you just start browsing through sites, shifting through ranges of hard work masterpieces to trashy jot downs to felon reports to trying to figure out the meaning of life. And you just can't help but notice how many people out there, there are, that are better than you. People who live better lives, who are more knowledgeable in countless number of ways, who look stunningly gorgeous, who are your age and are set for life, who have skills you've only dreamt of having your whole life. You start to wonder what you yourself have accomplished, but without much surprise, you cannot name a single achievement you are boundlessly proud of that seems out of the ordinary. That's when you start noticing you're just mediocre. It's just the plain truth. Your parents have been telling you for ages that you are something special, you are unique- something no one can compare with. It's all a lie. You're just an average Joe.
