Leaving roses and a love note on someones doorstep may be one of the most cliche' things ever... but despite it, they still freaking love it.

Happy New Years.

Pardon the whole "me looking retarded" thing.

Well that didn't go as planned

Fuck.

And this is why you don't catch their eye anymore...

Why do attractions fade? This is the thread I've been tugging at in my head for the longest time now, and even though I suppose it is an easy topic to usually come to an answer on given your personal circumstances... there's just so many possibilities that I can't help but ponder on them. But then again, like I said above, the situation usually has a very easy answer once you just analyze the history between the two people, given you know their history. If your looking at the question on a personal level however, the answer should be just as, if not even more simple to find considering your part of the history.

Now, when it comes to the topic of relationships, I've never been much of a man who uses logic and facts, as a relationship is usually based around ones heart and often involves several irrational events or decisions to even get a decent one off the ground, much less keep it going with both participants enjoying themselves. This is because, and sadly so, I've found that most relationships do actually require a level of irrationalism to keep going... not in a nessicarly negative way though, just merely, for example, turning the cheek on an issue dealing with your partner that you would not if it had involved one of your friends.

Of course though I'm speaking on personal issues now, and even though I wanted this to end up as some sort of intelligent writing on the topic of perhaps why attractions fade, or why relationships ultimately fail, or even why people are so irrational when it comes to dealing with an intimate partnership with a member of the opposite sex... there are so many conclusions to these topics (the majority of which are simply based on the partners personal experiances in the relationship) that any answer I tried to write would simply end up being a personal one. Thus, this would mean that the answer would simply be to my own, personal question, rendering it practically useless on a wider scale.

Why does any of that even matter? Because I like what I write to be selfless, so that others can relate to it. I mean, I understand that certain people just enjoy reading about the day to day events or rantings of random people, but the chances that one of them will stumble upon this blog is few and far between... thus, I often feel if I write anything at a personal level it's ultimately helpful to no one, save maybe myself. Of course though, when have I ever been the important one? Heh.

Ack, I've suddenly lost the ability to write anything relevant or important. I'll return when I've recovered it.

Very good!!! High-five?!

Here wo go!

Sun, 29 Oct 2006 03:34:37 GMT

I'm not one to post song lyrics of any sort. But here:

When you go
Dont ever think I'll make you try to stay
And maybe when you get back
I'll be off to find another way

When after all this time you still owe
You're still the good-for-nothing I dont know
So take your gloves and get out
Better get out
While you can

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

Sometimes I cry so hard from pleading
So sick and tired of all the needless beating
But baby when they knock you
Down and out
It's where you oughta stay

When after all the blood that you still owe
Another dollar's just another blow
So fix your eyes and get up
Better get up
While you can

When you go
Would you even turn to say
"I don't love you
Like I did
Yesterday"

well come on,come on

When you go
Would you have the guts to say
"I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday"

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday

I don't love you
Like I loved you
Yesterday

And not to be so fucking emo... but Jesus, I don't feel good. And I haven't for the longest time. and it's making me so fucking sick.

I know I dont update this thing as much as I should.

Fri, 20 Oct 2006 08:20:20 GMT

But I've been busy.
Well wait... that's a lie.
I've been so unbusy that it's not even funny.

However, I heard someone is down here on business this weekend, and thus I might have business to attend to myself. This is still up in the air though... but I hope something really does come through. This could be a very eventful weekend if the right circumstances can just come into play.

In other news, I've discovered LOST to be the best show ever.

Hi There

Mon, 11 Sep 2006 08:44:17 GMT

Curious what I've been up to lately?

I'm working on a website for a guild on World of Warcraft. Currently the "news", "dkp", and "r. schedule" sections are complete. I'd very proud of what I have so far.

Also, I have a very long (and continuing) topic in my xanga currently posted up dealing with the 9/11 conspiracy theories and a PWOT article and that sort of thing. Check it out if you want something long to read.

Finally, I applllied at Office Depot.

It's been awhile... (again)

Tue, 15 Aug 2006 14:36:14 GMT

High-school starts tommorrow. I'm fairly pleased I do not have to attend, as I am now (and have been through the entire summer) a graduate. On top of this, my two day long (and counting) splitting head-ache would make a return to school, no matter what the grade, somewhat impossible. But alas, enough about the joys of being a graduate...

Let's talk about my family. As of late, excluding my brother and father, I hate the occupants of this house. And I'm not trying to sound emo or anything along those lines, because my life really isn't hard at all. The simple fact of the matter is that these people I loathe make my life much difficult then it has to be... and they do not respond to logic. Yet as much as I want to write a novel-length rant about why I despise these certain people, in the end it would not get me anywhere. Plus, one of the parts about growing up is realizing that 99.9% of the people around you are morons, and to just deal with it.

Le sigh.

Finally, for the longest time now I've been contemplating what in the world I want to accomplish in my life. I mean, don't get me wrong, lying in bed until 3 in the afternoon and waking up to play WoW, hand with the wife, or hang with the friends is about as fun as a day can get.... yet, I also feel I am wasting away in a sense, or putting my talents (at anything) to waste.

I need to learn to drive.

And get a well paying job.

And shave.

So Let's Recap

I just got my stupid black stallion, yet it didn't really make a difference because the woman is still crazy as ever.

Expect a very large, insightful thing very soon.

All in all...

Fantastic. Lovely. What am I to say about the situation that has not already been expressed by myself a hundred times over, and yet still I find change is very difficult to come by indeed, if any at all. I am quite ashamed myself to admit that as time goes on I find my hope fading and fading... till I'm sure it will eventually become nothing more than a mere ghost left behind from the final breath of a dying ember, destined to be taken by the wind and then, in it's own time, lost forever. I write this now in perhaps my most thoughtful hour on the situation, however still a solution of any kind evades me. Perhaps something simply needs to be changed, perhaps not. At this point I have not the faintest idea.

Time tells all. Yet that is just something one says; for all my knowledge is worth it could not in actuality mean a thing.

Damn it all. Despite how degrading it sounds, it's times such as these I wish I was a man who easily gives up.

I'll Be Unoriginal

List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're not any good, but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your livejournal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.

1. James Blunt: Goodbye My Lover

2. Pure Pwnage: WoW Is A Feeling

3. Blue October: Hate me

4. Yoko Kanno: Goodnight Julia

5. Yoko Kanno: Space Lion (Music box edition)

6. Coheed and Cambria: Welcome Home

7. Fort Minor: Where'd You Go

---UPDATE---

Oh yeah, happy birthday America. Mine started to get old past 17, but hopefully yours are still rockin'!

So it's nearly been a month...

Fri, 30 Jun 2006 14:54:10 GMT

Been gone for a bit I suppose. What do I have to say?

-Go see Superman Returns
-World of Warcraft is killing my sleep.
-I need to sleep more.
-Not having a job is fun.
-Friends are cool.
-My girlfriend is awesome.
-Life's good...

...except for this mean headache I've got. Ouch.

The Rest Of My Life

Tue, 06 Jun 2006 17:56:39 GMT

I like today so far, despite a few draw-backs. To begin with, I woke up early this morning (around 8:30) and went running. Then I went home and had breakfast. Then a nap.

Now I'm up, hopefully going to spend the rest of the day with Erica until I have to work at 5... but then again that would be the ideal scenero, and as I've come to learn, what I usually plan out to happen during the day... well, doesn't.

I'll just wait and see.

Just over the horizon...

Wed, 24 May 2006 06:25:08 GMT

Oh wow. The mere thought brushed my thoughts for a moment and I had to go into the bathroom to conceal my sobs.

This is going to be interesting.

More and More...

Sun, 14 May 2006 03:45:58 GMT

As time passes, why is it I wonder more and more whether jumping off a bridge would really hurt THAT much?

I mean, why can't I think anything positive?

It's beyond me.

It's a nice feeling to know your clever.

It's Here

Sun, 30 Apr 2006 00:32:10 GMT

Ever get that gut feeling that something very bad is about to happen? Or has already happened, you just don't know it yet? Yet, by the end of the day you will.

Yeah.

The Recap Episode

Tue, 18 Apr 2006 05:24:30 GMT

17 came and went, and with it some of the more memorable moments of my life.

16 I threw away my faith, but it wouldn't be until 17 that I would actually begin to understand why and how. Along with this would come several idea's, as well as ideal's that shaped and continue to shape me today.

I also slightly let myself go, in a sense. I stopped worrying so much on things, and realized that while being serious and critical on things is important... always being this way in social situations is not always a plus. Sometimes the best way to meet people is to act like an idiot.

17 had it's fair share of relationships as well, actually I think 400% more than any other age of my life. Some of them were memorable... others were, well...

Now I'm at 18, an age viewed critical in the development of most people's lives. As of yet, this age has only yielded a handful of sunny moments, while the majority has just been bleak confusion and dark thoughts.

I feel like I'm regressing.

-----------------------

On a different note, I fairly enjoyed the Lord of the Flies, even though the plot wasn't the deepest around.

Is It Just Me?

Sun, 09 Apr 2006 00:28:04 GMT

The older I get, the more people ignore me. I don't think I've done anything to make people start ignoring/hating me, but then again I could be mistaken. Maybe I offended someone.

I'm just wondering if anyone else has noticed this or not.

The only thing I've gotten from being 18 is an increased ammount of headache's.

Fucking wonderful.

My Hair Is Wet

In 24 hours they'll be laying flowers on my life.

Just For Kicks:

Wed, 29 Mar 2006 07:52:52 GMT

Fun fact: Every entry on my Xanga's homepage has a mention of my research paper in it.

Well, I Was Under The Impression That...

Mon, 27 Mar 2006 14:02:39 GMT

Ok, well... that stung slightly? I'm still not sure I completely understand it, I mean, it's just... eh, nevermind.

Pointless rabble. Or well, it has a point... just...

On a different note, something I can speak on is the fact that research papers are quite difficult to sit down and actually do. And, to make things even better, I have to complete it by Wednesday when (this is the best part) I have absolutly NO time left to do it!

My Schedule:

Monday: 5-12
Tuesday: 4-11
Wednesday: 5-11
Saturday: 1-8
Sunday: 1-8

Yes, this will be quite the undertaking, I believe.

Oh, and here's the best part. Some people seem to not understand that I existed in this existance before I met Erica Rice... and if you know anything about myself, thinking myself to be brillant and clever and abolsulty handsome is about the last thing I would do, ever. Well, maybe not that handomse part... or the clever part... or well, now that I ponder on it: Yes, I am brillant.
