──────────JAMIE MCCOY HATES SAYINGS. The one's that adults use to try and be funny? The ones that creat unrealistic views towards life, because they're based on very untrue factual evidence? Like a picture is a thousand words. What kind of magical bullshit is that? Just say "it's easier if I explain it with a picture". OR a stitch in time saves nine. Who wants to guess what that means? It means deal with problems straight away, rather than letting them sit. You wouldn't know, though, right? So what's with the "nine" part? Jamie wants to know because Jamie McCoy hates sayings.
She'll break one down for you: an apple a day keeps the doctor away! Now, who the fuck decided to conceive that dogshit? As a training nurse, this hurts her soul. Was it just a little phrase to make sure kids eat their fruit and veg? Because surely as parents, you should just be able to make them eat the food that is vital for a healthy lifestyle, rather than having to threaten them with the thought of going to the doctors?
Jamie's problem with sayings, is actually quite simple ─ why don't you just say it as it is? Life's brutal, and an apple isn't going to help. Jamie knows this more than anyone. Working as an intern for one of Ohio's biggest hospitals is great for the experience and for her future career. But for her mental state? That shit puts emotional damage on a whole other level. She watches families say goodbye to their loved ones, every day, and it never gets easy. And she's only in training. What happens when she does this professionally and she's the one that has to break the bad, no awful news to the relatives? This is why you should just say it as it is.
SIMON KALIVODA WON'T ADMIT LIFE'S BRUTAL. He prefers to saunter around with a smile and make jokes about mythical witch curses because his town is a piece of crap. Unlike some, Simon admits that. He's not in denial that his school is terrible, or that he should probably get out of Shadyside right about now, but he doesn't do anything about it. Because life's fine, right?
And then his brother overdoses and he doesn't quite know how he should feel about it. On the one hand, it's now clear that his brother needs serious help fighting his addiction, but on the other hand, the nurse that just told him that Timothy's alive, but in "critical condition" is very, very pretty . . .
