Lack of update last night can be blamed on my tinkering with with my new LJ. Yeah, thanks to kind donation from [info]kimichan I have an LJ at last! Mweehee! But the question is whether I begin to post all my new entries there, or continue here. As I posted over there:
"It's official now - I know for sure that it's not possible upload all my old entries to this new journal. So it comes decision time, whether I continue on here, or use this Live Journal for the oh-so-time-saving friends list. Depends on how much demand there is for me on either server.
Hmm. Suggestions are welcome. I've always been indecisive..."
So beg if you want me to update here. I know most of you don't give a shit, or read enough to care ^_^
Yeah. Enjoy yourselves, now.

Just before I start my quiz-a-thon...
There was someone I sort've really got on a bad foot with. Someone I gave a cold treatment. I'm regretting this now. She honestly did her best, and I probably just brushed her off because I assumed she'd keep trying at me. Well...I guess I'm being regretful now, despite the fact they disturbed me at first. Hi Christina. I doubt she's really out there now, though.
It was a bit of a game for me, I guess, but it was a time where I didn't (and I still don't really) know what I was doing most days. And...well. *shrug* I suck, and I guess stuff happens, and I guess they think badly of me, and I'll probably have to settle for leaving it like that.
Yeah. Alright. On with the randomly picked quizzes.

I manage to think everything is about me, and even if it isn't I say to myself 'No, no, that won't be about you, stop being so self-centered', but then I go 'but what if it -is- about me?' I do it in regards to both good and bad comments, and I tend to have habits for thinking certain people always are talking about me.
Yeah, fuckchop. I'm a fuckchop. But I can't help, and it sucks not being able to know, and I don't just ask these things, and shit. Lots of stuff sucks. But at least some stuff is still decent...and...yeah.

Oh. And did you know the word gullible is not in dictionaries? Geez.

It sucks hanging onto a rope with a massive chasm below you, especially if you hate swinging.
There's no where I can escape from these damn mood swings I get. One moment you feel like dirt, the next on an ecstatic high, and right back down before you can really begin to appreciate where you are. And I have a knack for getting down and then moping around instead of trying to feel better. Which plainly sucks.

Whoopty fucking do.
Without consent, without notification, they've dumped me in the fucking extended maths class. Fuck that. At any time last year if I really wanted I could've been in that class.
I got fucking kicked out of maths-gate in year 8. I know why. I fucking hate the way it's taught, and I hate being inferior. What the fuck is the point of doing extra, stupid, inapplicably work, and miss out learning (and/or revising) what everyone else is doing properly, then being expected to catch up, then not knowing it when it comes to exams...
Not that I have any fucking motivation anymore. I need to find some, fast...and it can't be financial...

I might need a pet, myself. A cat. A cute little kitten would be nice, but I'd prefer to have my own, loyal, gentle, friendly Burmese. There's...a being I can...'love', that's the kind I'll deal with for now. And that.
But with my brother moving in again this year, and him being supposedly allergic...and the responsibility factor...
*sigh*
A cat would be nice to pet, a cat to purr contently and listen to anything I'd be talking about...yeah, it'd be nice. so would a lot of other things But it's not going to happen.

This is my 518th entry. It's not a number that means anything. It just happens to be that.

Knowing me was...a curse.

Still. I have something to look forward to this year, at least. And I -have- to keep my thoughts focused on that. Well, that and searching for other things to focus on. Whether I should try to forget, or try to pretend it didn't happen, or accept that it happened, or avoid or embrace what happened to me, and a girl that I believe, regardless of how old I am, taught me much and changed me also, a most fantastic girl, amazing...
...no matter what happened, I'll work at stopping this selfish anguish. And let natural selection take care of it. I'm not going to do...so doesn't that mean I get stronger?
Either way, it happened. So I'll live with that, and I'll have to. For everyone else.

[music |Eskimo Joe - The Panel]

Tadaima.
Yeah, I'm home. And sort've confused. More like braindead. Combined lack of sleep, and deep metaphorical, metaphysical, and psychological contemplation of the universe, man kind, motives, complex neural workings, and philosophical thinking has sort've got the best of me.
In finally had my Evangelithon. Even if this wasn't mine. Quick summary, for my own further reference, and to bore you people.
After school it was onto the North Haven bus with Alex and Jake...well, not immediately though. We had more like a 15+ minute wait for the bus to rock up, some traffic jam excuse or something. We made it on, crammed everyone in, and all that kind've buisness. And got off at the second stop it made.
It was from there back to Jake's to dump stuff off, make some calculations, talk some, and head down the shops. Get supplies (read: food) and get back. Muck around for some. Watch trippy Bjork video clips. Bjork is cool, sort've got some technoy type songs there. Might give a look or something some time.
Yeah. Had some tea. We started at 7:30pm and tore through as many discs as we could until stopping, rather conviniently on time, at midnight. Jake had to work the next day (today) so he needed sleep, and I would've happily also drifted off...he went to his room for sleep, I was in the room with the tv where Alex had figured to watch the Snatch dvd he had brought along. Urgh. I didn't really have much interest in watching it...so I sort've slipped into a hellish void where I was sleeping but awake, and trying to digest story forcefully, and trying to answer comments when they were asked but failing. Yeah. Eventually, though, I found myself at the end, and sort've wordlessly, after everything was turned off, slept. Somewhat well. Except I lost my pillow halfway through the night and couldn't be arsed groping around in the dark to retrieve it and so, in the tired daze again, drifted. Until before I knew it, we were being woken. And watched the remainder of Eva, and did a lot of freeze-framing for EoE, and checked out a lot of stuff. I think I picked up something like 6 new things this viewing round from everything, and watching it all in a row really helped. It would've been so much nicer of the other two were a little more Japanese language enthusiastic and we could've watched it subbed...but I think Jake doesn't like missing visuals when reading the subs and stuff.
I realised, that sometime through watching it, I was happy. Or...at least...serene, I was quiet sure, I was thinking, I was contemplative, but I was -there-. I existed, because I existed in the minds of the others, and I exist in the minds of others. Yet when I cower myself in my room and feel no motivation to go outside...I deteriorate my existance...
Yeah. Maybe there's a different me depending on the person to see me. And -this- is why, in everyone's mind, there is a different me. The me one person knows, the me one person laughs with, the me someone may one day love...it's all about finding them. I am me, sure, but different reflections in people.
I sound like Eva. It's probably getting to my head. But it's true. Or I believe it to be, anyway. Very deep. It sends tingles down my spine. Just -being- in a goal of Zen, it's a balance, it's calm, it's existence...supreme...existance.
If I exist, then why do I feel like nothing so often? I...hate the words of others. So often. I think I hate 'dai suki', I think I hate the words I use, nay, the modified vocabulary I use to inflate everything out of a proportion that realistic. Simple words. I should speak simple. But the problem is that when I make assumptions like that, I'm going against societies dos-and-donts. It's shaking a finger at me.
Bah. It sucks. Stuff. But I know there's the possibility to be happy.
Why do teenagers get this? What is this purpose?
No. Purpose. No purpose. No. I mustn't think and expect and demand answers, my childish crys will forever go unanswered, even if searching it what it takes to uncover it, searching is the sad task of looking for what is lost or never known. 'Man fears the darkness and so scrapes at the edge of it with fire'...hostility is not what I ever want to have to feel again. Or anything anyone should ever have to feel.
Everyone thinks of everyone else so differently. I feel like I have to be right, because everyone has to be. School teachs the one way that everything is, 'view' is spelt with four letters. The Sin of a given angle will always be equal to the Opposite side's length divided by the hypotenuse...static, it's all the same, always. One way is right. I get this enforced on me so often. So if one person is one thing, why and how can another person see them as something different?
Is this or difference? Or significance?
No. I'm way too deep for myself, and getting nowhere. Thoughtless rambling without destination, and with no goal, and with no possibility of sucessful uncovery. The search...
That must be why I shut my heart, for now, from searching, because it was premature, it never needed to be...not yet. I'm too young. Although I don't know how old I feel. I'm childish, but too...aged, I'm past it. Superprobability, superimpositioning...
I should do Quantum physics. I liked that stuff. So much for that. In science, we're doing fucking fitness.
Fuck. The journals of two individuals...I...hate going back, but every day I do. Every time I write up an entry, I can't stop myself. I can't tear myself from returning, even though it'll never be - it takes two wills, it's not time, I'm young and make too much of a fuss...
If I were a couple of years older by body, perhaps by mind and by spirit and soul...
But it depresses me, and reading some words just arn't easy. But I challenge myself by reading on. What -are- my limits, and how do I control? Why do I have no want to turn away, just turn my head, and accept some things are better without me?
After all, I'm not the important cause of pain, and I feel...jealous? Yes. I think I feel jealous. That I'm not the big one. The real stress causer. Instead, I'm in the shadows towards the back of the main picture. There, but minor. That's.../good/, I think, but I feel...
Urgh. I'm egotistical. Alison was so right. And I feel so worthless. I feel like nothing.
At least I've lost my will to tear. It gets me nowhere. Just like writing all this...
I get so lonely here at home somtimes when no one is online...but sometimes just seeing people on contact list is enough to comfort me...just watching names as the scroll onto the screen...

I'm so afraid of failure, and that's exactly what I'm meant to do...

A number of things to comment on. Hopefully reflect too. If I wanted an accurate recording of day to day events, I'd do more of a log book. Instead, I use journal as my whole 'silent listening friend' type thing. Speaking of friends, too, I've made one, I believe. Hi [info]jewdriver =) Eva fan, sound cool - good deal. Will be good to know you I get the feeling.
Yeah, I don't get so enthusiastic over meeting new people often, online or offline, but it does happen.
Well. I left today feeling -happy-. Yes, fucking /happy/. Me. Of all. It doesn't go with my eye colour, but screw it, or something. Yeah, I felt accomplished too. I've done a full set of homework today (all I could do really, anyway). I remembered to give Trent his webcam back (because I guess I don't need that anymore...) and gave Jack the phone he should be getting, borrowed his mp3 player (which came with an included complimentary cd! How fscking cool! Has Motor Ace, New Found Glory, and other sweet shit on it...it's really made me quite happy really)...
I didn't get Evangelion tapes -yet-, but I got the next best thing I guess. The Evangelithon is officially on tomorrow night. Thankyou Jake! EVA ON DVD MWA I LOVE YOU WORLD. Sorta. Well, I love Eva, and I love the way I'm being treated right now.
I feel like a bit of a loner in sose, but that can be solved. I can always sit next to Gab or try muscle my way into sitting next to Martin in science...I don't know what maths is like but yeah.
Multi Media sounds to rock, I guess. I've got stuff I can do in it. The teacher seems cool enough. And the students seem willing to fuck around.
Hmm. I think I'm doing computer programming wtih Cameron. Urgh.
As far as stuff...well...I've run out of time for today, it would seem. Although I can probably say I suspect I have a visual crush on someone. Go me. I guess it's a good thing in some ways...but. Well. Anyway.

[ Some...stuff. ] [Jan. 29th, 2003|09:08 pm]
Okay. I guess I should fuck on about school.
We have the 'Sweedish Chick' in our tutor group. Not bad. The group itself isn't too bad, got a lot of the old jocks from last year - not a good or bad thing, though - and a few of the other people from the class, and three new peeps. Wow us. Yeah. We went to our homerooms and blabbered about stuff and the like, about diarys.
I understand that it's unavoidable, I understand why they don't want it happening and why they put a rule in place, but it really fucking irritates me that just because other kids don't think the school logo should be pretentiously plastered everywhere, and that just because it belongs to Immanuel that it's almighty and worthy of worship and praise, so in a simple rebelling students deface the logo (all I really did was draw thorns around it in a subtle attempt to be truely hardcore...I was practicing some shitty effect. That, and colouring stuff place, like on the front. Because the bird looks better, goth, and the whole golden thing fucking pisses me off), they slap a rule in place just to get rid of it. Boom-you-can't-do-this-we-are-the-law-here. I'm getting the feeling I'm going to have to stand up for my religious beliefs at some stage during this year...I think the school, while I understand it's Christian, while I understand making Chapel compulsory, while I understand encouraging Christianity amongst students, as soon as this kind of religious 'enlightenment' becomes hassling, or oppressive force, as soon as you don't have choice in your words...that's when it's a problem for me. I have no problem for Christians, and for Christian people I have respect as for the next Shinto or Hindu or Buddhist or Wiccan or member of any other religion, and I don't hold the stupid actions of a few people against an entire group of people...I know I have my beliefs too, even if they're vague...I'm sure I've written before even if they've changed ever-so-slighty...because I do think about religion. I just don't commit myself to organised religion yet. And I kind've dislike Dogmatic religion, but that's just my opinion.
Still. The fact that the SRC were requried, whether truthfully or not, to answer 'I do so in the name of Christ' kind've made me a tad edgy. But since I can't get my thoughts down properly, try ever, I'll stop there.
But just little things like the whole diary bit shouldn't get to me, but they do. Shows my unnecessary irate choices towards how I take school.
The day itself was alright, and hopefully the year will be too.
It was the afternoon that really sucked, computer fucking up, computer being slow, heat, being drowsy, nothing working, losing work, internet fucking up, having downloads reset...but I've explained all that to Liam anyway already, and I couldn't be assed doing so again.
At least, though, going back, I have less time to think about her and that and everything, I might even forget past happenings quicker. Because that's all I can do now, either wait or forget, and waiting would be in vain. Yeah.
Mum's really getting to me, too. Irritating questions, getting all touchy because she saw coarse language on my screen (a screen she shouldn't have been reading, really), stuff like that. Though she just left the room, so that's a relief.
Yeah. Someone wants to meet me, but I doubt it'll happen.
Anyway. Time escapes. This really sucks. I hope this term goes quick. And the next, after the holidays. C'mon Valhalla...
Oh, and I might've possibly kind've invited myself to an Evangelithon at Jacob's house. Fucking awesome. Though I doubt they'll lemme watch it in Jap.
Oh, and I need a way of two people listening to the same computer through headphones. Hmm. Anyway.
I need a drink.

Today, indeed, I had the great pleasure of stumbling across Ano natsu, ichiban shizukana umi on SBS at about midday. Japanese movie, 1991. And to keep things short, I loved it.

I heard something about Samual Beckert, and his stuff really looks to interest me. I should look into watching it and everything.

Saturday SBS looks good. And SBS in general is becoming more appealing. And The Oblongs rocked my world . And I want to watch Banzai with a group of people, because that's when it would be funniest. Even if I'm dissapointed because it's all Eruopean and everythings rigged. Oh well.

I gave my journal a bit of a touch up, if you don't view me through friends view you'd notice. For those uneducated in the ways of UNIX, 'finger' is a command that allows you obtain information on someone. Don't get any sick ideas. It's just a creative name.

School tomorrow. I'd say more, but I'm pushed for sleeping time. So. Enjoy. And thankyou for your support and stuff through the holidays, at least from those who've offered it.
Others can suck a nut. But still.

I should find time tomorrow to post something longass before I start to go quiet again. Damn lack of posting time that school ensures.

Being teenage requires a lot of responsibility, without the power.
Without the power, though, there's little damage you can do when you fuck up your responsibility...
So it's all about making mistakes. Which is one thing I am so terribly afraid of, I feel I already do too much, and that people will always ridicule you for. Teenage society wants me to be prefect, fate doesn't.
Yeah. I've been thinking way too much today. But I can't seem to stop myself. Maybe I should go full out thinking, exhast my topics, and I won't have a terrible sleep like I did last night...I need a clear mind right now more than most things.

You have to go without to appreciate the with.
It's funny how humans can find so many meanings from songs, and make them out to solve every mystery of the universe.
It's funny how humans also make things to be so much more than they truely are. That's what humanity is.
We have to turn away from the questions, from the past. We have to turn to a life of monotonous existance, because that gives us the solitude to go onward, it's only that way we can forget the question, that beckons for an answer from the skys. That's why we have to pretend it was never posed, it was never asked, because I know for one I can't settle with our inability to answer it. There is a way, there is hope. I'm sure of it.
Kind've.
Sort've.
Not really.
But there's still a chance. If there's still a chance...
...I really wonder what on earth I am talking about. I have to stop sounding so stupid, pointless, and senseless, and most of all depressed...
"And if this is what it takes
To lye in my mistakes
And live with what I did to you
All the things I put you through
I always catch the clock, it's 11:11
And now you wanna talk
It?s not hard to dream,
You?ll always be my Konstantine
They?ll never hurt you like I do
No, they?ll never hurt you like I do"

Confusing lyrics. But nice. Maybe comforting? I don't know how they relate to me, or I pretend they don't, or I don't know...
Yeah. I'll settle with not knowing anything for the mean time. The little pleasures in life, thanks. It's time for reform. Maybe I'll start trying to be happier now, and maybe I'll succeed.
It makes a hell of a lot more sense that this dribble of mine, anyway.

Getting gut retching feeling again...maybe it's just that virus that accompanies the conjunctivitis I have...
Y' know, I'd would have been leaving Sydney about today...or this would've been my first day back and I would've returned yesterday...
I should probably eat, but I -really-, really, -really- don't feel like putting any food into my mouth. I think I'd just regurgitate it. And even though I probably wouldn't, I just don't want to...
Stupid stubborn bitch I am. That's all I do, too, bitch. Remember? Bitch bitch bitch...
I had a thought last night. Y'see, I've learnt a fair bit from Role Playing. Now, I've learnt more than just what steps/processes manga artists do stuff in for Shuji, oh, I've learnt more than the basic functionality of an Irish pub for Blake/Blair, I've learnt more than just some of the steps street kids would take to keep alive...
...I've learnt some really important things. Important to me, anyway. Because when you deal with Role Playing, you deal with people, and you -play- a person, and you get inside their head and their body, and you feel their motives, and you watch what actions result from those motives, and those emotions. Sometimes, I even connect to my characters on dangerous levels, and I end up feeling very sick when something bad happens to them...
But one thing I see is Josh. Josh has fame 3 - he's somewhat well known. Came from a punk rock band called 'Soul Derringers' which originated in Australia, and finally did some biggish stuff in New York, before the band split because of conflicts, drug use, etc. Note, this band is not real, and it just part of my imaginary character's imaginary background.
He started off ice cold. And before I knew it, I was kind've finding myself with an almost anti-social character. I didn't mean/want that, though, I intended to have him just to be cruel. And eventually I seem to subconsciously settle from a median - a guy who is purposefully cruel, continues to push people away, as a safeguard from being let down by humans again. He even continues to challenge and push at, at least a bit, even the person he's moving in with - it's just a friend/friend roomie type thing, though.
Y'see, he said something at some stage that sounded like "I do it so the ones who don't give a fuck get the idea to piss off, and only the persistent bishes, the ones that really care, manage to get through." So it's a way of making sure that only people that care get to him, only people that want to know him and can be tolerant of what he says.
I think that might be a little reflection of me.
He exaggerates, just as I do (though he's definitely more hardcore than I'll ever be) to make himself sound fucked up at times. Guess what I do. He blows things out or proportion so people will think '*gasp!* what a disgusting person' or something. I think, on a smaller scale, I do the same. With my bitching and my 'hating' life, when I really come from a stable family and have all these opportunities set out for me, when I babble at people in self-loathe, when I try to make sure everyone hears every little fucked up comment I make, when I get very exposed and open about how often I cry, I might just want people to think I'm not the kind of person they want to associate with, so only the tolerant and persistent ones get through. But how lonely does that leave me? Very. Probably too lonely, way too lonely, so perhaps that's why I've taken refuge on my solidarity, and became my own best friend.
It's just a possibility. But it's one I'll consider
I'll just say that I do know that I definitely -do- get depressed, and that's real. Whether I let myself get worse for the purposes stated above, that's a different story. But adolescence has something to do with it, for one.
I pondered something last night. Are characters/images/art/creations that come from one's mind a reflection of it? I'll add now that such creativity might be a simple reflection of the mind in different stages, periods, and moods...but that it's not necessarily a direct reflection.
I believe it all demonstrates capacity. Just because I write about the squelch of blood in carpet as some guy who's just been on a shooting steps on it, doesn't mean I would ever go on such a shooting, or ever enjoy that feeling, or ever want to hear it. Everyday we push ourselves (or at least we should) past our old boundaries and attempt to stretch.
Interesting analogy that comes to mind - imagine a baby sitting in the middle of a circle. Like...a cross-section of a cylinder. Looking at it from a top view, we see the baby sitting in the middle of this, and all the possible areas of life are coloured bits on the floor, going out from the cirle like you see in those mind charts and the like. I'm bad at describing this. Still. They all go outward, and the area of the circle is coloured one colour, with the label on the section reading 'basic life functions'. This includes the abilities everyone has, and that we first learn. Well, most people, anyway. Now as this baby grows, he crawls/walks to the edge of the circle and starts to stretch the material a little. She can't manage too much too quickly, because she is young and his muscles arn't at their full potential, yet she has the ability to stretch her little circle a little bit outward, and it how covers a part of the floor. Congratulations, 'lil baby has, whether by choice or chance, expanded slightly into the artistic field, demonstrated by her wonderful artwork, now on show all across the wall of your hallway. She grows further, and perhaps decides to expand into other areas. She might find that certain parts of the cirle, as she grows, are easy to stretch than others and the like.
I've really failed to demonstrate what I'm talking about, but this is how I can see the mind's growth. And just because you have stretched your circle all the way out far into the area of creativity, doesn't mean you can't do the other things within your grasp, and can't be the person that you are.

I have a hole in me that needs to be filled. Some people fill it with religion. Others with relationships. Some with substance. Some with bad habits, others just ignore it. I don't know how I can fill it, but none of these seem acceptable choices for me.
I think I have written more than enough for now.

[ Sucess myth. ] [Jan. 27th, 2003|12:35 am]
[mood | distressed]

So I decided 'hey! I can really crank out some new sort of journal layout tonight. Even something simple, functional, with a few nice colours!' I find myself at the end of the night with n-o-t-h-i-n-g. I got no where. Cutting out people from the backgrounds of pictures really really really sucks a nut. And when I find another picture I can at least use to subsitute (that is, 5 hours after first setting my goal, but that includes time to watch some random sitcom on the fuckerbox) for the other one while I look for a better, more suitable one, and I just can't fucking bring myself to make anything. I need to see it in my mind somehow, but I just -can't-. So I go 'hey! I'll draw it!' 5 minutes and one less piece of paper later, I remember I can't draw.
Another of tonight's side-quests was to download an mp3 -> midi converter, convert Yasashisa no Shouzou to mid, then convert it to score, and try play it on computer. How close am I to that? About as far as I've ever been. Downloaded a program, which was thankfully 1.2mb (so joy), and 1 hour later it decided to freeze at 90%...it had only done about 400bytes a second the whole time. When I finally get the program, install it, get it to convert, joy! It works! But I can't save on the evaluation version. So I get a crack for aforementioned program, and get it running! And go to save! And name the file! And bingo, I get fatal error, can't save, and when I say no to saving the whole thing has an abrupt ending and shit like that. Like damn.
Not to mention waiting for a 5mb program which was said on download.com to be 5K, wow they mucked up there, and finding out that it doesn't do what I want it to do - take screenshots of media files so I can a) maybe find a good one for my journal layout b) take cool pictures of cool things in cool anime/movies c) use it to...do...stuff. I had ideas, I'm sure. But I've been metally blanking all afternoon. Oh, and the best part is that I might not actually be able to take snapshots without a video capture card...
LALALA. Isn't it great?
I find out that this FF8 music video thing I've been downloading to give a shot...has 9mb worth of footage at the start just playing the dolby surround sound test sound effect (note that the mpg is most likely NOT encoded with surround sound support) and displaying the logo for the guy that made it...fucking pretentious bastard. I want to slap fools who think any more than 10kbs is acceptable to dedicate to your thing...sure, have some credits, if you're really serious watermark it somehow...but shit. 9mb of download and not even into the damn start of the song?
I don't know whether to start downloading Evangelion now or just get it at lan. I'm thinking of getting it at lan, better chance of better quality. Download Witch Hunter Robin instead.
So...I havn't suceeded in anything I set out to do. I couldn't even manage to grab anything cool on my journy either, downloads were fucked, links were dead...
And it is was past mum's bedtime. She shouldn't be in here knowing that I'm staying up past the time I was set to go to sleep to help me adjust to the earlier nights I'm going to need when I get back to school (and if I start out the year going to sleep at 11pm and rising at 6:45...yes, I am definately going to be fucked. I only did about 1/3 a year doing that last time (actually, I was staying up late to talk to Kimi, and that's what started it...))
Oh, wait, if you count recordings of the voice actors from Love Hina dubbed counts as 'findings'...URGH. Except I would never save that blasphemous shit onto anything physical. *sigh*
Today I missed ass-slapping and asian chicks at West Lakes mall. Oh well. And Skyshow I didn't really even care to remember about. I'm not enthusiastic about much these days...
Is it better to be unaccomplished and annoyed than depressed? Probably.
Y'see, the positive way to look on tonight would be that I kept myself occupied enough not to think about her.
Although I'm starting to get insomniac with those thoughts...
I just suck. I wish people could do the things that I can't do for me, but there's no chance of a team situation like that happening for the little day to day tasks I come across and the like...it'd leave me with more time for writing and the like though if people did do them for me, but that's unreasonable. And anyway, I can't think of anyone I could get to do any of my tasks anyway.
All I can do is hope that I can do something soon, some time.
...actually, when I come to think of it, I've never made a proper, decent, good looking webpage.
...
What a morose way to look at it. But true.
It just means that my triumph on completing these make-over will be ever more astounding!

I'm in serious fuck. I really shouldn't have based my Personal Project around website development.

Looks like mum's not budging from her freecell until I break a leg. So I guess I'll do so now.
Tomorrows goal, despite my urge to get some sort of work out of me, is to try not to be a cynical bitch like today. Onward.
Shuji, fuaito. Q('.'Q)
Think happy thoughts, Japan, Valhalla...I kind've have to avoid girls, 'cause that easily links to more depressing subjects...
Oh, and I decided that I don't have enough testosterone, because I feel like a whiny girly bitch. Still.
Okay. I'm going for real now.
