It's not like regular lonelieness. It's not about feeling friendless. It's more like total cultural alienation. Like, I woke up one day and realized that all this time half the population have been inhabited by aliens. They look and act and sometimes say things that remind me of humanity, so I gave them the benefit of the doubt. But, the time has come in my maturation process to realize that MOST PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY ARE TOTALLY CHECKED OUT! No offense. It's nothing to do with their DNA...it's just the aliens, I guess. I mean I knew we lived in TV land. I knew that we are a very fat people obsessed with image. I knew we are a consumer culture (I studied it in school). I knew a lot. I just didn't accept it (awarness, accepantance, action). I think I've been waiting for someone to go "Just kidding....we're not this stupid!" But it's time for me to wake up and realize the truth.

I am experiencing culture shock in my own culture.
