Oh Hey It's 2012

So hi anyone who follows or checks this ever. I know I haven't updated much in the last... year. I have given up saying, "I will update more frequently I promise!" because frankly, I haven't really managed to follow through with that.

So here is a quick update of my life these days:

With the new year I wanted to make sure I took a vacation. So I did take one that began on my birthday, I'm 25 now by the way. This vacation was to Australia. I loved it there and was very tempted to "miss" my plane back to the states and job responsibilities and all that junk. Two weeks was definitely not long enough unfortunately.

The only other events of my life lately involve school things. I feel like I really need to get back to that aspect of my life. I missed a bunch of the deadlines for this year which was quite frustrating. This has lead me to the conclusion that I will be starting back up in 2013. I have been accepted to Humboldt State for 2012, however the fact that I wasn't actually rejected from any other school drives me a little crazy. That and I am hoping to get a little farther away. We'll see what happens though, I obviously have some phone calls to make about this stuff.

That's pretty much it...

Fuck You, Twilight

First off, I will admit I will never understand why people like the Twilight series. Also, it is only on my mind because I had to work till 2:20am last night because of it. Anyway, here are some reasons why I will never understand the fan base for it.

Bella spends the whole series being obsessed with some guy who is frankly bad for her, and we are talking unhealthy levels of obsessed. We are talking the kind of obsessed where if I had a close friend acting like she does I would probably try to get her professional help. Then, on top of that, she manipulates and leads on another man who she obviously isn’t going to get with because she is god damn obsessed with someone else. Who the fuck is that much of a bitch that she will lead a guy on like that?

However, more importantly, the entire series is teaching young girls to think that the kind of relationship Bella has with this dead man is desirable. They have a terrible fucking relationship! She literally submits to him on fucking everything all the way up until she is pregnant with his undead fetus that is a serious danger to her life. However, when he is basically telling her to abort the baby to save her life she stands up to him. That’s right ladies, you should always submit to a man unless he is telling you to get an abortion to save your life.

Seriously? What the fuck.

Nothing There (written 7/29)

I am in a place unlike any I have been in before. I don't like it. It is a terrible place that feels like it is changing me. I liked myself too. It is weird to think that something that can happen in an instant can change so profoundly how one functions on a day to day basis.

I have sometimes believed that I tend to be too trusting rather than not trusting enough. Perhaps this stems from my intense value placed in honesty. Since I strive to be honest at all times I tend to assume others do as well. This opinion can be changed for a person of course, should they be someone I find lying frequently or something.

Point is, this level of trust I tend to give people who might not deserve it generally doesn't blow up in my face. However, it takes a pretty amazing amount of trust to give someone your heart. I mean really give it to them. I fear I may not find myself able to trust people like I once did, at least not so easily.

Hey There

Sorry to anyone who actually follows this stuff at all thinking, "man why hasn't he been posting anymore?"

I haven't done album reviews in quite a while and I know it. I have written a few posts, but nothing I felt I should or could post at the time.

I know I have said I will try to post more often a million times, but I am going to try and post more often.
