I think each time people disappoint you or let you down throughout life, you lose a little bit of hope and faith in the goodness of humans in general. After this happens repeatedly, I think you reach a general state of unhappiness where you have a hard time believing that anyone is truly looking out for you, or means well. I feel like I'm pretty...

Sounds to me like everything that is happening is exactly what is supposed to be happening. You have a better grasp of it than I did when I was 19, which really isn't that long ago, even though it seems like a whole other life. Congrats.

Trust me, every one has their own little tidbit about how to become an adult, but fuck um because you arn't ever going to find the answers. Most people just like to hear themselves say their lives turned out ok. There is no plateau, its not like it sucks all the time but you just can't let yourself get caught in the trap of thinking that its going to get easier soon.
Life is beautiful but adulthood just means you have to do it for yourself.
I went through some tough times at your age too, and I'm still working on how to become a decent adult. smile

You'll make it... Just be flexible

today I quit my job and found a new one that is paying me $10/hour.

Wait, no I didn't...i must have just been dreaming. Although certain job-related events today have inspired me to look for another job, which I will start doing tomorrow when I go to the bank.

I can't wait to get done moving...Saturday the 11th will be the big moving day, I'm...

Hey, hows the move going?? so you moving in with the parents??

Ya know it is cool, what you said. really appreciate it. I have prettymuch come to a point where i want the emotional impact of things to accompany my understanding and experience of things.

Like i used to be able to understand it all, but just not go through the hurt or excitement. Like being able to get the lesson but not value it. I suppose that is what i feel i have missed. alot of the value of my experiences.

Oh and by the way, I so loved office space. it kicked ass.
recoveringmale:
Yeah, fuck that job!! And fuck moving too... I am about to drive the last of it out of that house and leave the girls a note tellin' em to fuck off. Oh it feels good, yep...

A few thoughts about voicing things you can't seem to get out (I daresay I've felt that way, oh, once or twice. Just maybe): First, it's pretty much impossible to completely get out what you want to say, accurately, in one fell swoop. It just doesn't happen. Either we lack the vocabulary to articulate what we think/feel, or the self-awareness to really even know what we're feeling, or a combination of a bunch of things. But really, it's not possible to get it out perfectly. You lose a little bit of truth in each stage from brain to paper. So, letting go of that is a good start. Just write it and then write a bit more and then maybe go back and write it again. Hmmm. I'd probably do well to take my own advice from time to time.

Been feeling slightly better the past few days...what I really needed was a few days off, even if i didn't do much of anything. I've got a lot of stuff to do coming up, and I think two days of doing nothing was good preperation for that. I'll have to start packing my things up soon and hauling them back to my parent's house.

I...

Direction isnt always what we think it is. sometimes standing still and wondering where we are at or where we are going is really where we are supposed to be.

Never know where you will find that inspiration but when you do you will know it. I am often amazed that i am at where i am, and look back and realise i was always on this road, just couldnt always see it.
Hey just think of the eagles song "Take it Easy!"

I so love the eagles!

So here it is, my first entry into the world that is Suicide Girls...

I've decided to maintain my SG journal a little better than I was my livejournal. Why the name Sassitude, you ask? It was Leslie's creation for me a few weeks ago, when we were bowling. Since she's leaving in a week or so, I figured I'd use her cleverness in some...

Welcome, welcome! This site is a really good way to kill some time, but it's even better if you take it beyond the boundaries and come out to events.

I've been itching for a project myself lately, my normal hobbies have been feeling stagnant. And I can empathize with the needing a new guy/friend/what not (well, girl in my case). My only romantic dalliance in Portland has been of the short-term, "I say I'll call you again but never will" sort of variety. This is an easy town to meet people, but a hard town to truly connect with someone, I'm finding.
