  • To begin, I thank my friends for introducing me to ska. I love it.

    Now to the point and hand...I don't have one. I'm sitting at my desk, which isn't a desk, It's more like a tray with wheels and a fold-out lawn chair which is too short for the "desk". I'm trying to get back into the loop of school time, which is a big let-down for me. I usually spend the week before school waking up at around 6:30 or so, so I can be ready and awake for the coming school year. The one downside to this is that I wake up and 6:30 a.m., and no one else does. So I'm stuck awake and extra few hours with no one but my thoughts, even though I don't usually talk to anyone. I've come to the sad realization that I'm a very lonely person. I have friends, which I am thankful for, but I barely have one friend who I keep in touch with more than twice a week, and I'm not that deep with that person. There was only one person I could be perfectly me with, and I left her. I'm not regretting it. I'd rather have a lonely spell that return to that harpy (too extreme).

    I guess my main problem of the week is summing up the entire summer and coming up a week early. I wish I had planned something, anything, that could stave off this emptiness, but almost everyone I know is nose-deep in work or starting college or whatnot. It makes me regretful that I didn't really apply myself in the last three years. Almost as heart-breaking as the lonliness is the crushing sense of the "could've's." I could have done so much, but I pissed my years away and now I'm facing the music. I try not to live in regrets, but it's nearly impossible. I large chapter of my life is closing and I regret not reading the lines closer.

    I'm not one for large rantings (Who am I kidding?), but I feel like venting might help a little. It hasn't. If anything, I could say it made things slightly worse, since now I can see my woes on a large screen before my eyes. I make a small sigh as I look upon the text and find my mouse clicking on "Save changes."

  • In Retrospect...

    I look back at the last three months and I thought to myself, "Have I ever been this happy?" In my 17 years of existence, I can't recall any period of life where this much enjoyment, happiness, ecstacy, sadness, introspection, and enlightenment has been condensed into a few short weeks. Truthfully, not so much enlightenment, my perception is as cloudy as ever, but regardless, a lot has happened in this little amount of time. One of the few things I haven't been able to come upon this summer is inspiration. My mind has been befuddled by information, advice, troubles, but nothing that has pushed me into putting the pen to paper, or the finger to the keyboard. While I regret this, actually, I really regret this. The last great inspiration I had was somewhere around March of this year. 6 months without a single idea. My brain is fried. I pray I can write one thing from beginning to end before my high school carrer is over.

    Muses, grant me your pity, and bring to me a shred of inspiration and light, and I will be forever enthralled and grateful.

  • I'm Having My Angst, Leave Me Be

    I have no idea what to write in here. Despite the advertisements, I can't simply document my experiences onto a screen and act like its exactly what I wanted to say. I overthink what I write, and I will guarantee (I just spellchecked guarantee) you that 12 minutes after I click "Save changes," I will be back on this page, combing through this page look for errors and changing every word I can.

    And yet, I'm able to post movie reviews like I'm somebody, without any regrets or thoughts of pompousness. I care what people think, and I don't, either. It's a simple, pointless, generic feeling that every human has felt since the dawn of time. Now I'm imagining neanderthaal teenage angst. "Unga bunga boo. (strange noise) Bawunga." I can't even feel angst-y without cracking a joke. I can't face a problem head-on (Apply directly to forehead), and now I'm listening to a song in a language I don't understand, and actually taking solice in his lyrics even though I have no idea what it means (Gatumbu). Blah. I'm looking at AIM, staring blankly at all the names of people I talk to in the real world, but I don't just click and type "hi" in a box. I wonder what the neanderthaal equivalent is?

    Regardless, irregardless, anyway, Kachoo booweepo sanga wahpul bluff.
