Requisite - (adjective) made necessary by particular circumstances or regulations; (noun) a thing that is necessary for the achievement of a specified end.

You need clean clothes to get a job. i do laundry at Bubbleland™ but i already have two jobs i don't want. Though i like the structure and the exercise, i certainly don't like the money. i LOVE the people. The working class is the place to get to know, though, when getting to know a city. One could walk around the loop, the downtown 'scrapers, the nice restaurants and popular clubs, the beach, all those destinations meant for mass consumption: you'd only know pop culture references in relation to the specified city. But to get to know the people is much more indicative of the place. Then you realize that they're pretty similar to those who you knew before, and place becomes just another dock for personality, for ideas, for everything you already knew.

You need confidence to harbor believability.

i've made mistakes, i've tried too hard, i've drowned in my own sense of quiet-half-asleep loathing. But i'd have it no other way. "We learn infinitely more in times of change and times of crisis than in times of comfort". It's true, it's true; we know, we know. But say stupid things and only realize how it comes out of mouth and into ear, such a manifest mistake but such a latent blessing. i think we all need to learn to make fun of ourselves, do stupid shit, eat it on purpose. It seems to me that one key of life is to do that shit we're all embarassed about, but be able to do it while dead drunk OR stone sober. Hard, but rewarding.

Prerequisite - (noun) a thing that is required as a prior condition for something else to happen or exist; (adjective) required as a prior condition.
