Get ready to see more of me on here.
LIFE UPDATE!
(:Possibly moving to New Orleans for part of the summer, depending on how bored I get of Shreveport.
:More than likely moving to Austin at the end of the summer to live, depending on the roommate situation.)
So I'm going to make an effort and start posting more, as I have recently deleted facebook and think the idea of this blog is a lot healthier (facebook fucking sucks) that anything that I could "accomplish" on facebook.
I think it's pathetic how people in social networks these days take advantage of the of everything that they have to offer. Speaking personally, of course, it's an unhealthy thing to want to know everything that is happening with people, most of whom you REALLY don't know or care to keep in touch with. I would like to think that my friends who would actually like to keep in touch with me would call or write me from time to time, instead of the facebook stalking that is so seemingly nonchalant. With the internet being one of the biggest influences in everything these days, I would like to have some hope in humanity that they would at least not let it take over how their relationships work.
Oh how I wish it were the roaring 20's.
Changing the subject, I've recently moved to Shreveport to get away and start life fresh. It came to a point in Monroe where I questioned why I lived there and why anyone would want to live in such a place where they just do not "fit". The conclusion that I reached was: "We can all do everything and anything that we want, and that we should all live the life that we want to live." Think about it, ones environment and culture that one is surrounded by influence everything that one does.
I believe that it is ignorant to not control what can easily be controlled.
Things in Monroe got to a point where I really didn't know what to do next. School there wasn't right for me, so I quit. My job just wasn't where I felt I needed to be in life, so I quit. I hate quiting things, but if it wasn't for that happening, I wouldn't be where I am right now. After going to New Orleans and having an amazing time, I came back with a new sense of maturity.
Although I got kicked out of my house, what happened was necessary for me to move on literally and metaphorically. Without that I wouldn't have the relationship that I have with my mom and with certain friends.
I thank God everyday for the opporotunities that he presents me with, and for giving me the power to make my own decisions.
Enjoy every bit of life, and although it is great to look back in time, I just don't like hearing people talk about how they wish things were like they used to be. Things happen for a reason and how you deal with those happenings determine who you are. I guess the way to not want things to "be how they once were" is to enjoy and reflect on everything as everything is happening.
Do not take advantage of anything, always be aware of oneself and environment, and love life always.
After living here for the past couple of months, I've had enough time to clear my head and think a lot about how I want things to be. I also have the best relationship with my father that I have ever had. I now love the guy and feel great about calling him my dad. There was a time in my life where he was disgusting to me. I think he also respects me as an adult. We have great (decent) conversations these days about real things. Although we are completely different individuals (He's a very conservative and closed-minded individual), we are still very alike in the ways that nature intended us to be. People at his work cannot believe how much alike we look. Everyone has always said that I favored my mother, until now. I guess I have become a (haha) man.
Don't waste your time on girls. They lie, hid emotions, and tell you things that could be so easily avoidable as to play mindgames. I've learned many lessons in that field, but I continue to be vulnerable and lay myself out there for people to take advantage of me. And though I see this as a lesson learned, I wish these lessons could be "skipped".
I need to meet more nice girls.
