boo

halloween..... um yeah, pretty much rocked hardcore ballz. I managed to pull off pc9k, which probably isn't something to be proud of. Oh well, it was entertaining to play the part.

got to hang out with someone who I've come to be good friends with. It's strange how a relationship can change over such little time and be completely transformed. About 14 or 15 months ago, we shared many things together, experiences, memories, emotions, our lives. Then (we both realized it at some point, but unfortunately for her, I realized it first) we realized things just weren't working out. We weren't as happy with the relationship anymore and things had kind of fizzled out. So, we broke up, devastated both of us, her at first then it caught up to me. It was a rough time, she moved into a couple relationships that didn't work out and I sulked, lived my days in anger, not moving on with life. Then I got into a relationship that didn't work out. Nowadays, I'm living the life of a single man and she's in a relationship that seems to be working out well for her. There's a part of me that Sami still has that I don't want back, can't take back, and don't need back. It's just there, I gave a lot of me to her, some of it just remained permanent, and that's okay. But, when I talk to her and hang out with her, that part will be there. That part doesn't really do anything in particular except say "you remember this? man, what crazy times those were." And, it just makes me happy. When I was acting like a pissed off emo kid, I never thought I'd see the day that I would be friends with her and be glad that was where we were at with our relationship.

but, as a single man, I can't help but prowl around. I see cute, cool-looking women everyday, but I don't ever build up the courage of talking to them. I sometimes worry if I'm at all their type, I make assumptions. I assume that as far as college guys goes, they will be looking for a guy who's at least 6 feet tall, looks handsome, and other qualities I just don't have. I don't think I'm a bad-looking guy, I'm just totally out of shape and lack confidence to approach and talk to women. I think I need some help on this one. Either someone can talk to someone for me or I can just get some pointers. I wanna be in a healthy shape, but that kinda tough when I work 30 hours a week and do 13 hours of classes each week. I mean, it's clear that I have the time to do it, it's just that I value my free time to relax and value time with my friends.

My priorities need to shift, that much is clear. Less xbox, more crunches. I know the solution to the problem, it's just enacting that solution is what I need to do.

This is too long, goodbye.

to read this much of the post, might as well finish it.

Like any life, mine has behind it lots of debris and garbage that has just resulted from my interactions with the experiences in life. I get shit on, everyone does, that's life. You roll with the punches, and if you respect yourself, you stand up for yourself. I understand that there are some who are unable to grasp this concept of just dealing with shit by themselves. You know, the whole "I've gotten myself into this shit, I can get myself out" is just an attitude that has become a portion of that debris and garbage left behind the sometimes reckless path our beloved United States of America travels on.

Okay, everyone caught up? good.

I'm moving forward, a direction that has been difficult for me to move in at times in the past. There have been occasions in which I have been desperately trying to move forward, but someone or something has pulled me back, and I relapse on whatever has happened. In my most recent encounter of this, ridding myself of the problem was the solution to it. Excellent, now I can live again. I should no longer be given a reason to reflect on anything in the past, right?

My motion forward means I would like to date again, though I need to tread much, much lighter than I did last time. I have to take my time with things, and that would help me to make a wise decision about a mate. I am not too many years away from being at a reasonable age to have a soul mate. If I find her, I will obviously seize the opportunity and embrace it with all I have to give. For now, I just kind of hope that whatever is meant to happen does. Because, despite the bad times of my life and the shit that happens, it will all lead me to happiness one day. And if the shitty stuff from my life didn't happen, causing me to not find a happy life one day, then I am okay with that bull shit happening. But, I wish it would just go away, the current situation has been pretty dormant for a while now and I'm glad. I just hope it stays that way.

Though everyone knows what I'm referring to, please don't perpetuate anything, this was not meant to rock the boat in any way, shape or form.

Pissed offffffffff

I really hate what college is doing to my psyche, I mean, seriously. I know that programming is incredibly tedious and stuff, but how the fuck am I clueless? I mean, it's soooooo easy to say that my professor has been teaching at a pace above my learning ability, which is true, but it puts blame away from me. And I wonder, how could I have screwed this up? I mean, I take all the notes and I try to keep track of what he says, but I'm not fantastic at either of those. Youtube shows me how to do basic programming that would be a great starting point, but he expects a helluva lot more than what Youtube shows me. I mean, calculus is only going better because I'm receiving a shit-ton of extra-credit opportunities. I personally feel like he's got quite a few people failing his class and he doesn't want that to happen. Which is why reading a 300 page novel (or at least telling him I did) will get me a few test points. And why doing simple bull-shit could get me more than 200% on a homework assignment. Boy, I look forward to calc 2 when I didn't learn enough in calc 1 because I received a passing grade, and didn't EARN it.

Why in the hell is CMT showing Christmas Vacation? I don't want to see it too much, then I won't want to watch it when Christmas 2010 rolls around, jeesh.

Good to see that I follow my own blog, wish I knew how that happened. What the fuck would happen if I blocked me? Would I be trapped outside of my own blog? I mean, it's not like I could log in to my own blog which I am blocked from and can't see at all and unblock myself, I'm blocked! Lol, I just won't try it, that' s a good idea.

If all this Computer Science stuff doesn't work out, I have no idea what I will do instead. Maybe Computer Information Systems, though that's a little closer to a business degree than I prefer. I'm not a fan of business by any means, though I have heard it's an easier route than CSC. I've considered Philosophy, but there are a few problems with that.
a) I would have to get a Phd and teach it at a University because there are virtually no jobs available for it, which could be cool, cuz I'd be a badass professor.
b) I've only been in one class, I don't know what the whole degree program is like.
c) I have to have a minor, any kind is okay. Maybe computer science, information systems, or maybe even music. Who the hell knows?

Gotta love Valentine's Day, or at least that time of year. It's bringing back memories and stuff, and I'm thinking of her a little bit, too. I think I'm at the point where the only way I'll be able to truly befriend her and say "I'm happy for you" and all that is if I find happiness. And, I think I'm ready now. I've got a couple of options, I've just gotta man up and talk to a few women. I could say hi to that cute blond clarinet girl in band, but that would be a little close to deja vu, I suppose. Though they look SUPER different otherwise, especially the height, lol. Then there's the oboe player, but idk about her. There's the cute girl who sits next to me in calculus, I finally talked to her today..... about homework. Idk, she's smart and super quiet, but I know absolutely nothing about her. I just need to man up and start talking to these chicks, I've proven to myself that I can face rejection just fine and actually look at it in a comical way. So, what the hell am I afraid of?

There's also that one red-headed girl Skyler is supposed to talk to for me. I trust his judgment that she's a "looker" I just hope she has no other attributes that rhyme with that one. Like hooker, or something else bad, idk. Most of the girls on the dating sites are insane or just not interested, which confuses me. I wonder if it's some women's crazy preferences on the height of their man. If that's one of the biggest things holding me back, then I'm fucked and need to be less picky about chicks, lol. I guess all some girls see is the 5'5" on my profile or they may see "spontaneous, ambitious, or tries to be life of the party" Oh, wait, those are desirable qualities, maybe they see my slight belly. Holy shit, it's going away, I promise. I am more motivated to work out with someone I know who is at my approximate fitness level. Working out with friends or if I had a girlfriend who wanted to would get me into the habit. Hell, I'd like to have someone to swim with, I want to do that SOOOO bad again.

I should stop, people are probably going to fall asleep reading all this crap, lol. Anyway, I'll probably write up another one here in a month or so, lol
