I love life at the moment, taking this year out before university has been great - got an offer at Warwick to read History, getting some great work experience at IBM, living with some great people, making money, going out, getting with girls, getting drunk, going on holiday to Australia, Thailand, South America and then for the yearly summer catch up at my mates Villa in Mallorca - amazing. I know it can't last like this forever but that just makes it even better - I'm loving my life and wish I could be 19 forever!

I'm really looking forward to Summer, for the big festivals I'll be going to and barbecues I'll be hosting. At the moment though, I'm struggling to stay motivated for Uni. Last year my classes were very interesting and this year they're mostly terrible, and I'm doing 5 instead of 3 so I can't afford to lose the plot really. I got the grades I needed last semester though, so I should be fine this time round. I just need to find out how to get into honours.

I look at the relationships between some friends of mine, and I realise that I have nothing like that (at least not with anyone I see regularly). But this doesn't bother me, never has. I rarely have true interaction with those around me, and when I do I'm never full-on in the fray, having ludicrous amounts of fun. But yet again, that doesn't bother me. I am remarkably content with myself and my life, but when put in comparison with those around me it appears barren and cold. As far as uni goes, all the people I know I remain reasonably distant from, I never know how they feel nor what is occurring to them, even if I enjoy their company. I guess I'm pretty boring really. I kinda like it.


That sounds a lot like me.

Minus the Uni part. I'm the same too. I don't really see my friends much due to the fact they're all at Uni and I'm not. I should probably ring them but I don't until I know they're back home. I don't know if this is a bad thing or not. I just feel maybe since they're at Uni they have new friends and I'm kind of like something they've just left behind. We're still good friends when they come home though. I might send him an email or something later to see how he's getting on.

I love the internet.

Hey StayDead, fancy having a meet-up? We can both chat about how little we stay in contact with others.

This is also me. Kinda erks me sometimes, I'm not sure whether I like it or not these days.

Not great. I have good days and bad days, as everybody does.

My biggest problem is I bottle up everything which affects me, rather than properly deal with it. As a result, every so often I get to a breaking point where it all comes out, and I feel really shitty. And obviously when you are feeling down about absolutely everything, it's nigh on impossible to effectively deal with it properly. It needs to be sorted out gradually.

I was locked all day in the summer heat,
In a small brown house in suburban streets,
The skateboard and my gooseberry fool guitar,
I dreamed all day that they would get me far,
My dad would ask me about my grades,
The asshole sports that I never played,
And then I'd ask about the girls he'd date,
Behind our backs when mom would stay up late.

It was near when I turned sixteen, got kicked out of school,
And so it seemed, that things were closing in
And ready to blow,
My dad moved out about that year or so,
It took an hour to start a punk rock band,
To offset my strawberry floated up family land,
And as I held my mom would start to cry,
I swore ourselves a better life.

If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
This made me all of who I am inside,
And if I could thank God,
That I am here, and that I am alive
And everyday I wake,
I tell myself a little harmless lie,
The whole wide world is mine.

The summer's gone, the years have passed,
My friends have changed, a few did last,
The smallest dreams got pushed aside,
The largest ones that changed my life,
And all I wish for has come to past,
From rock and roll, to love and cash,
It's all success if it's what you need,
Do what you like and do it honestly.

If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
This made me all of who I am inside,
And if I could thank God,
That I am here, and that I am alive
And everyday I wake,
I tell myself a little harmless lie,
The whole wide world is mine.

Yo oh oh oh
Yo oh oh
Yo oh oh oh
Yo Oh Oh
Yo Oh Oh Oh
Yo Oh Oh
Yo Oh Oh Oh
Yo Oh Oh

If I had a chance for another try,
I wouldn't change a thing,
This made me all of who I am inside,
And if I could thank God,
That I am here, and that I am alive,
And everyday I wake,
I tell myself a little harmless lie,
The whole wide world is mine.


But in seriousness. My life? Well we could talk and talk. I think I've come to that stage now where I've learnt to appreciate what I've got and not get depressed over what I haven't or what I've lost. The end of last year was probably the most difficult time in my life and I know every time the clocks go back i'm going to be hit by an urge to hide away in the future, but thats a milestone i've yet to hit. Being unemployed does suck....but i've learnt....i may as well enjoy it..Uni again in september...hopefully not to strawberry float it up this time.

My life would be pretty good if I didn't get so depressed over not having any close friendships. But I like that break me each day...

Honestly, it's not a bother, you just need a good hobby, like masturbating.

Yeah, it's alright. I love, adore and worship my job, even though it isn't exactly making me rich. PhD is going quite well, at a steady pace; have around 5 or 6 big box files/folders filled with material I'm going through bit by bit, which isn't bad going for 6 months into a part-time programme. I'll be doing that for at least another 3 years, which I can see no reason why I wouldn't see through until the end.

Everything else could be better, but if I said that my personal circumstances have improved drastically since the turn of the New Year then that would be something of an understatement. Priorities are now in order, so to speak. I still spend too much strawberry floatin' time on the Internet, but eh. What can you do.

I dunno, I have a lot of hobbies but when I do them I just think to why things aren't working then stop enjoying what I'm doing. Be it playing guitar, playing games, watching films or masturbating. It is especially gripping my mind right now in such a way I can barely think.

I went through that phase. Then I realised that most people irk me, and it stopped bothering me. 8-)

I hope this phase is on the out. I feel like I've reached the climax of it all!

Yeah, with any luck you'll be fine. Mine ended when I realised I was turning into a gooseberry fool sub-emo prat, and vowed to get rid of the sub-emo part.

My god, yes. We've had two really pretty nice days now this week, and it's been great to dig out the sunglassess already. :)

If the weather continues being this good for a few more days, it won't be long until the FRESH PRINCE & DJ JAZZY JEFF makes it's first appearance of the year in the car. :mrgreen:
