Diary Entry: July 20XX Today is Saturday. Usually Saturdays are uneventful for me and I'm delighted to report that today was no exception. Eleanor wanted me to go with her on some sort of errand, but the idea of going out in the July sun was completely unappealing. Am I relying on her too much? I'm a grown man- I should be able to go to the grocery store. I guess it's just [text redacted] I sort…
Time Started: 5:30 PM Mood: Calm and At Ease Weather: Despicably hot and humid Hello to all my readers! Today, you are luckily spared my whinging about having nothing to do, because my life has been rather active as of late. Summer vacation has been in full swing for a few weeks, and here is a non-exhaustive list of all my activities: Went to go see Obsession at 9:00 at night with some friends…
Time Started: 10:47 PM Mood: Tired Weather: Dark and Stormy Hello again, readers. After the bleakness of my last entry, I'm happy to say that my life has been much more lighthearted over the last few months. I actually managed to do some rather fun things. The main thing I did was drive up to the city where I'm planning on going to university and tour the campus. It was very pretty, the scenery…
Time Started: 4:01 PM Mood: vaguely shitty Weather: it's been two weeks and the ice still won't melt Trigger Warnings: New header. This entry devolves into my philosophical ramblings near the end, and I make mention to suicide and nihilism. Feel free to avoid this entry if need be. Hello again, readers. I know that I start every post this way, but my apologies again for never updating this blog-…
Time Started: 9:55 PM (previous day) Mood: Indifferent Weather: Unseasonably warm Hello readers. First, I must offer up my sincerest apologies for not writing an entry on this blog for over a month. College is a cruel, tortuous prison, and finals week this year was one of the hardest I have ever worked through. Yet, we prevail, and I did manage to survive the week with only an 88 in Calculus to…
Time Started: 1:48 PM Mood: Caffeinated Weather: Pleasantly chilly Well, readers, I am delighted to announce that the oppressive mediocrity of my life has finally taken a backseat. This week, I have real, actual news to share with the four of you who read my blog. (Your readership is, of course, dearly appreciated.) To get the boring news out of the way before we begin: Over the week, I finished…
Time Started: 8:21 AM Mood: Energized Weather: Very cold (which I expect will be a theme going forward) Another Monday, another blog post. It is at this point I feel I must give a sincere apology to all of my followers, for I have come to the conclusion that my life is simply not interesting enough to write about on a weekly basis. However, I have made a commitment, and to it I will stick. Another…
Time Started: 8:30 AM Mood: Ambivalent Weather: Bright and sunny, yet sharply cold To everyone's surprise, I have not forgotten about this blog immediately after attempting to commit to it. I also have more to talk about in this entry, since it was actually an eventful week. First order of business is that my job interviews were successful. I landed the job, and I am now a server at the local…
Time Started: 1:08 PM Mood: Contemplative Weather: Grey and rainy, a personal favorite of mine Well, I have finally decided to actually make a commitment to writing weekly entries for this blog. Who knows how long it will last, though. My original plan for this blog was to write essays, or media analysis, but I have come to the conclusion that I do not have the time or energy to actually write…
i recently started writing my common app for college applications, since this is my last year of high school and i'll need to send in my ED application by november. and as i was writing, i struggled. probably more than i've ever struggled to write anything in my life. i wrote a 12 page research paper about healthcare last semester and had an easier time of it. i always thought that i liked writing…
