Suicide is man's way of telling God, "You can't fire me - I quit."

I'm almost never bothering with this thing anymore. Maybe checking for updates once now and then; but actually bothering? Nah. You know what I've found I'm missing ( Read more... )

i never even went to school with you, I'm 800+miles away from you, but I still think about you daily, read your lj, and care about you.
*hugs*

i need to do hw, but i'll try to get online tomorrow night, ok hon?

Well, I did say most people.. but it was also a reference to how brilliant I am at keeping up with people. I lag enough as is even with people that live around here.. throw in people going their own way, and myself as well most likely.. well. Yes. It will be interesting.

And, you're an oddity rarity.

See, the thing is, you're right about after the end of this school year. Most of us will lose contact and maybe even forget about one another. Come high school reunions, we'll meet again and remember, "Oh, yeah. I was such good friends with them..." and then catch up a bit and forget them once again ( ... )

And, oh my god... I totally was listening to that song yesterday and I sent it to Patrick... x_X

schlecht_affe October 13 2005, 07:22:45 UTC

Wow, you're right

finnbarr October 13 2005, 06:39:05 UTC

Ehhh.. just feels to me like something gets lost there. Not sure where 'there' is exactly.. maybe that people'll go seperate ways come school's end, maybe that we'd be so far apart to do that.. maybe just that online seems a horrible way to communicate and loses all semblance of personality.

I don't really expect much out of this on anyone's end -- hell, I don't expect much anything out of anybody as is. Just was a comment on it and.. ah, I'll just edit the post.

Hey, at least people comment when you post. Besides, pointless things can be great fun. GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY INDEED! Well, I'm stuffed with pastries and drunk with power!

finnbarr October 14 2005, 04:25:43 UTC

I reply to yours. And not saying it isn't fun.. I get a kick out of it, but moreso out of myself in some odd twisted sad ironic way.

Dare I ask about the pastries? And if I can have any?

mutant_lemur October 14 2005, 06:00:24 UTC

The stuffed with pastries and drunk with power thing is another line from the same song as great googly moogly. And yes you do reply to my posts, as much as anyone. I was just saying that because in my last 5 post I have a total of 4 comments, half of which are me.

I must say I agree with you totally Nick. But, Kathryn has a point. It's not like we're all going to the same college or shit - hell, with the way my life has been spiralling to nothingness I may have to cancel college.

But god damnit, I will try to stay connected with you all. It's not a oh, I may look on LJ once a year, its what keeps me from burning out. I can go on LJ and bury myself in the issues of others, and I forget all about myself.

Apathy will kill you, Nick, better not let your guard down.

"Apathy will kill you, Nick, better not let your guard down."

::grin:: I think, if life hasn't killed me yet.. sort of.. my odds are pretty good.

Also, I think we're all on page with that whole not going to same college / won't see each other thing.. that's part of the reasoning behind what I said. It doesn't bother me like it used to that we'll go our own ways, or even that we'll never see each other again. It -- wait. I don't know if it ever terribly bothered me. We'll all live our lives, regardless of how deeply they're intertwined with each other, and to hell with if we know each other beyond even tomorrow. What's important is that we've had what we had, however little or great that is, and it should be more than any of us can ask for.

Here here!

wow it sucks that you guys are thinking like that. definately after high school you find out who was really your friends, they're the people you keep in touch with. the people you call and you're like "my day sucked, this college thing is tough, i need a hug but you're really far away" and with the coolness of the internet theres cool things like LJ, Myspace, facebook, e-mail.. all very useful in keeping in touch (all of which i'm majorly addicted to ( ... )

finnbarr October 17 2005, 13:25:23 UTC

First, I really think 'best' indicates.. you know.. best. Not, one of the best, or almost best ( ... )

anonymousanna October 17 2005, 18:14:21 UTC

Infact nick, there are faries and elves in my world, yours too.(faries watch over my underwear) but that wasn't anything to do with what i was talking about.
i never said that you'll be friends with all the same people.
you and i grew up in a very diffrent world, as far as socially. where you don't feel love and depend on yourself for everything, i can't do that. i couldn't sit in this dungen of a dorm room for 4 years and not look back and remember the people who love me and care about me, like my friends.
i am aware that people change, but thats the beautiful thing about living, and being friends with someone, you get to know them, and you never stop getting to know them. theres this crutial thing i have come to understand and aprechiate that you don't believe in, love, and that may be what makes me most sad. in my life there are three words that are VERY important and without i could not live: Love, Believe, and most important FAITH. and i can only pray that you come to understand these.
