the only thing better than being alone is being with those you love. i don't know why i cloister myself. i thrive off human interaction, yet i'm also very afraid of it.

I woke up at 5 this morning. that never happens. So what is there to do in Eugene at 5, you ask? I wouldn't know, because I just stayed in my apartment and listened to music. I'm looking forward to getting a waffle at Off the Waffle, though--easily my new favorite place to eat in Eugene. I'm super hungry though... don't know if I can wait. I had some good bro-love this week (no homo), sharing my feelings and shit like that.


I'm looking forward to Jodie's 4th o' July partay! FIREWORKS!!!

Holy SHIT! I just saw Drag Me to Hell, and it was fucking radical! Sam Raimi, whether you like him or not, is fucking great at what he does. The movie was funny, had an interesting plot, and was scary as fuck.

P.S. if you ever encounter a gypsy woman with a crazy witch-eye, just be kind to her. It could save you from curses. Also, my dog, Buddy (RIP), had a crazy witch-eye, thus making me have mercy on creatures in such condition. Bottom line: give the witch-eye people candy to get them off your back.

I've been reading a lot of sci fi and not doing homework. why do I always do shit like this? I think I don't like school, but I also don't want to be
A. a bum
B. a food-service slave
C. live at home, being a food-serving bum.

Careers suck. I just want to read, write, play video games, and play music. I wouldn't mind working if it was something I really loved. Where will I find that thing? Whatever. life's b.s.

p.s. the chick in terminator was hot (Moon Bloodgood, i learned from imdb)

I read about you
today, and it
made me tear up.

I chose not
to sob;

rather,
I was silent,
letting a single tear
rest in
my stubble.

It's easy to ask the question, "why me?," but it yields no results in the end. Shit happens; I just need to learn how to move on.

Why all of this? Well, I'll tell you:
  • My car was broken into last week
  • I'm having problems at home
  • Some dude just ran his bicycle into my car a couple of hours ago
Now I'm going to listen to old country music and drink Coors.

I'm starting on anti-depressant pills starting in the morning. I have high hopes and plan to conquer Eugene this spring.

These past few months have been possibly the saddest of my life. I needed to make a change, so I turned to pharmaceuticals. For the longest time I had a stigma about taking them--their side-effects, and the idea of feeling like my mood is fake or manipulated because of pills. I got to the point where I shut down because of depression, and rather than lose all hope and quit at school and life, I decided to move past my apprehension.

Worst G.P.A. in my academic history this last term... hmmm.

I had a massage today for the first time. I also had reiki... Eastern medicine's pretty cool, even though I still think its spiritual element is kind of cuckoo.

Hair's too long... cut it out!

I like all of you.

Telling yourself that you want to do stuff only to end up doing nothing at all.

That's my life. I don't know the solution. I think I'm creative, but I never make anything.

In other news, Richard Brautigan's great. So's The Jesus Lizard. So's Real World Brooklyn.

Nothing much here. New Year's resolutions. Reading. Right now I'm missing city life. That'll probably change like every other thing. I lost at pinochle tonight. It was brutal. One hand I had a full run, 100 aces, and 300 pinochle. Dad left the table a champion.

laptop's almost dead... I'm using dad's computer. grrrrr.

I had a gig back home... terrible terrible. Fucking hippies. I never want to play music that I don't like again. I'm better than that.

I feel trapped. I go back and forth from loving what I'm doing to being much too bored. I think that's a sign of depression.
