i rarely use my laptop anymore. i used to be unseperable from it, but im glad i mostly tend to avoid it once i come home from work, and on weekends as well. im already stuck in front of a computer screen for 8 hours a day.
ive been brainwashed by my mother to like the corporate world. what is there excitement for? dress codes, cubicles, promotions to middle management? i cant continue to print out spreadsheets day after day after day. i currently do foreign exchange trades. i work with money every single day. every number i type in is some form of currency or bank account. it is meaningless, trivial work that one day will be done by computers because absolutely no creativity is involved whatsoever.
i want to have fun in life. i want to be able to do the things i want to do and enjoy those things with the people i would like to be friends with. i have left a lot of things behind me, and i think its time i let them go. care too much about what other people think of you and you become a slave to them.
i reread "a million little pieces" over the past few days. other than the message of the absolute horror and addictive power of cocaine, alcohol and herion, there is a book that james frey finds solace in, and this is the tao. i would like to read it very much, and i have been increasingly noticing that eastern beliefs fall much more into my realm of faith then any organized western religeon can teach ("love they neighbor", have sex with children. thank you catholism).
i love chuck costa
i have a boyfriend who brings me home a rose for absolutely no reason :)
