Surprisingly, I wasn't high
Anime Relations: Honey and Clover
So I doubt anyone will read this (maybe it's for the best) but I wanted to post this somewhere and since the IGN blogs are basically defunct...
Sitting around today being bored, reading random shit online, I've come to the conclusion that at least one cause (well, aside from boredom) of these anxious, restless feelings I've been having stems from the overwhelming need I have to ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING.
For at least a year now I haven't really done shit.
Vague, right? But it's pretty accurate. Read on (assuming you're reading this in the first place, you might as well finish...):
I think my train of thoughts ended up arriving at this particular station (here's a tenuous link to anime... of course I didn't post this on MAL for the fuck of it, I had a reason after all... heh heh) while watching Hachikuro a few months back.
Besides making me want to become an architect (it's in the show... sort of) , it made me realize that I rarely create things anymore. Stories, paintings, music... whatever. It was kind of depressing.
It's not necessarily that I feel like I have to MAKE something to feel right, it's just easy to feel useless at this transitional age... I'm supposed to be entering the "real world" in a few years but I feel like I don't even really affect it.
So, I've decided I want to DO something. Be a volunteer tutor, write a story, clean up the beach, make people money... fuck, I don't know... something that affects the world, or at least people, in a (vaguely, if it's all I can do) positive manner.
The point that I'm trying to make is that however much I love weed, games, anime, etc., it'd be nice to do something to escape this vapid consumer lifestyle at least once in a while (not trying to be deep here, but seriously, I don't do much in my free time...) and in doing so affect something, somehow.
Anyway, just wanted to put this out somewhere, however pointless it may be.
Anyone else feel this way? Questions/comments/malice-filled cries of "get a life"?

"Anyway, the sad thing is... we're here sitting our ass here and BLOG about it lol."Yeah I know, huh, LOL! I don't think you're a bum... loans aren't a big deal, I mean they suck, my brother is paying off his school loans but if you get a decent job and you're not too outrageous with spending the first few years you'll be well on your way to paying them off. Haha but anyway it's not like I don't know what to do with my life, I just want to do something meaningful... I think I'm just gonna start volunteering again or something lol... can't think of much else. |

Dammit dude me too. Well after reading it reminds me I'm currently a useless bum with a freaking giant ass loan I'd pay my whole life. It's just shocking really, being in transitional age and all... some people are ready, some (which is like me) are getting themselves into deep shit in the long future.You know talking to you for few years I thought you already blend in with society or basically reaching to adulthood... college life, drinking, partying, smoking weed behind your mom's back, and all that, so I never guess you have a feeling of being useless lol. I dunno man, what do YOU want? For me right now I'm not even sure even I took on a certain major. Lots of people here are trying to help me getting started on that, but it's sad that most of my weeks... well... filled with anime. Dude... what do you wanna do with your life? Tomorrow? Next week? next month? NEXT YEAR??? if you have a TIGHT plan with your life (and doens't involve smoking), tell me. fdcry and here's hoping to raise your self esteem. Anyway, the sad thing is... we're here sitting our ass here and BLOG about it lol. |
