it seems i tend to gravitate more towards LJ when im bummed out
i was reading a few posts from some friends and figured id make one myself. its hard to believe i made this thing over a year ago but nonetheless, here we are. ive probably posted in it like three times, and could care less about most of the posts on my friends page. i am absolutely appalled that people still do quizzes. like..... really? quizzes? i remember in high school LJ quizzes where the coolest thing ever. i myself have been guilty of doing a few of them back in the day. i kept up with them until one day i realized that theyre pretty stupid. theyre all basically the same questions and reading other peoples quizzes seemed less appealing once i realized i didnt give a fuck. well somehow, those quizzes are still immensely popular among high school kids, only now theyre filling them out on myspace and posting bulletins. then it hit me, how big of a loser was i, or any of us for that matter, to do any of these quizzes? all they do is attempt to draw unnecessary attention to the quiz-takers themselves. all of the stupid high school girls on my myspace that i remember from my revival days do like 3 a day, and i find myself wanting to strangle them for it. is that normal?
myspace and facebook have been pissing me off anyway. i still check the myspace about once a day, idk why. i guess its out of habit. the thing is that when i check it, i dont actually do anything. no one leaves me messages or comments or anything, so im not on for long periods of time unless im lookin up a band or something. facebook i hardly use cuz of all of the creepy stalker software on there, e.g. "Alex commented Dave" "Dave commented Suzy" "Suzy brushed her teeth" "Alex shot himself cuz of all of this stalker crap". i mean really, do i really need to know what every single one of my friends is doing all the time? i know theres gotta be some stupid high school girls that fucking love that shit, "oh you mean i can see what EVERYONE is doing ALL THE TIME and fucking SPY on them!! omglzzzz!!!"
in case you cant tell ive grown quite bitter towards high school aged individuals. this is probably due in part to the fact that i see all of their bullshit on myspace, and another part due to the fact that i havent met one with an IQ above maybe 40. if i meet anyone to change that theory, maybe ill ease up a bit.
onto more relevant things, life is going pretty ok i guess. its nowhere near where it should be but things have improved a bit since the last post. im no longer angry at all times anymore, i guess i was going through that phase when i made the last one. ive actually been nicer and more pleasant at work for some reason. i guess im just trying not to take my job for granted in light of this god awful economy. still dont know what i ultimately wanna do with my life that wont have me ripping my hair out. i have one semester left before i graduate with my bachelors in Radio/TV/Film. im taking a bunch of gen ed courses as i may stay an extra year and get my masters in the science of teaching and become an elementary ed teacher. im not sure if i really want that tho. i just want a job where i can show up, work, and then go home and be done with it. i am completely over college at this point. theres nothing for me in RTF, ive wasted too much time and energy doing absolutely nothing to help my cause when i couldve been making contacts, joining clubs, and learning how to do things...
on a related note, that really irritates me more than anything. the fact that ive completely wasted my education up to this point, and the semester i really need to get good grades i couldnt even bust my ass enough not to get c's. im an average college student at best, which will hurt me more than anything. all this time i kept thinking i was exceptional when all i did was become slow, lazy, and fell behind.
other stuff is ok i suppose. i dont work much because the company cut hours due to the recession. i get about two days a week and its not enough. i will be on the market for a second job soon. the lady situation is still absolute garbage. i dont have the confidence to talk to practically anyone, and im rarely sober which doesnt help my cause. band stuff is going ok, im in a new band called Searchlight Rescue. its pop punk stuff, which is cool. ive never gotten the opportunity to play pop punk when i was younger, so this is kinda making up for it, haha. we are in the process of recording some tunes and whatnot, so well see how that goes. hopefully kids are digging it.
well i could write a book here but ill stop now. my computer cant handle me typing too much because its an old piece of crap, so i bid you adieu, livejournal. until we meet again.
