Tomfoolery.
I have a strange tendency to go through spurts of approximately a year, or two, or sometimes even three, where I have a strong desire towards writing journal entries that describe even the must mudane, simple details of my life. Then, something happens, and that desire dies down. Usually, when that desire dies, other internet-related ones burn out as well. Example: I rarely go on MSN or AIM anymore. I have no desire to have conversations. If I didn't know better, I'd swear I had no desire to have friends. It's not true, really, at least, I don't think it is. I just go through these periods of wanting to be anti-social, and it's not the fault of anybody but myself.
I've had a few weblogs in the past, that were constantly updated every day, and suddenly, I just stopped caring about them and let them rot away in cyberspace. It's bizzare that it happens almost at random, with no sort of warning. I can't understand it. All I know is that I lose all desire to write about my life, and I feel that there's really nobody who cares to read about it anyway.
I've been reading a lot. I love learning, though I must admit that I'm partial to the courses I'm taking in university at the moment. It feels like some sort of token, common third-year slump. I know a lot of people who up and dropped all their courses this semester because they felt like they needed a break; they felt like school was suffocating them. I feel that way too, but since the term is over in less than a month, I don't feel that doing this would be wise. I go to class, I do my assignments and I get high enough grades on them, but I don't care. I have no passion for the things I'm learning, if it's safe to even CALL it "learning", for a lot of the subject material seems to consist of concepts and ideas I've learned in the past. Geography is choking me to death with it's long, bony fingers of repetitiveness and triviality. I need a change, dammit. I knew it was a bad idea to take geography courses and ONLY geography courses. It's my major, and I love it, but I need some variety, one that isn't so slight, ie, variety in the sense of taking transportation geography and social geography, but taking a course in geography and another in, say, history.
I've always found it funny when people who claim they always wanted me as a friend and to be a part of their life become almost like a complete stranger to me. I wouldn't call it upsetting, nor would I call it strange, but rather, it's funny, as I've already said, but in a sort of dissapointing way.
I've also always found it funny when those same people used to chasitize me for something in the past that they are now currently doing in the present, and will more than likely still continue to do in the future. People change, I know. But still, it's perplexing how some people can change so dramatically. It's also perplexing how they can forget.
I'm out for now; maybe for a day, a week, or even months. Who am I to say?
