Five years
I've been going back and reading my old entries. It's been five years since I've last posted. It's really amazing how times have changed. I still have fond memories of just hanging out with my friends without worrying about bills or supporting my mom. Nowadays, it's just been work and school for me. My thinking has changed too. I used to use words like "faggot" with no regard and now just reading it from my old posts makes me cringe a lot. I know nobody uses livejournal nowadays so it's not like anybody will care about my post. I know I probably won't use livejournal for a long time after I make this post but I figured it'd be good to give some decent closure and not leave on bad terms. Hell, I might revisit again in the next couple of years from now.
I'm 31 years old now. I was 19 when I made my first post. I've made a lot of friends since then and lost a few along the way. Most of my friends who I still see every so often are now my best friends and I'll forever cherish that. I still play video games but not as often as before. I still read manga and watch the occasional anime series. My dad died after his cancer came back in 2011. I cried a lot back then and for a while, I didn't know if my mom would be alright. I'm working for the government but as a civilian and not as a member of the armed forces. I don't have a significant other at the moment but maybe that'll change one day? Who knows. My brother just had his first baby, so now I'm an uncle. I'm living with my sister right now after she stayed with me for a year at my old townhouse (which I sold off).
It's really amazing how you think you know everything but as you start growing up, you start to realize just how much jack shit you know about anything. I'm grateful to my dad for teaching me the best he could. It would be a great honor if I could become at least half the man that he was. For the one or two people still reading my posts, thank you for listening. I know I'm just rambling on right now but I really appreciate it. I'm going to get off and continue on with my life now. As I watch various people come and go in my life, I realize just how short our lives really are. I know that's such a cliche thing to say but it didn't really hit me until fairly recently. So, I'll try to enjoy life as much as I can with my friends and family.
