A man like me? I'm a man like me!

Meh, sorry for the spewing forth of entries the other day but I was bored and have been storing up a whole lot of junk that I have wanted to post but couldn't. So you got a serious dosage of Nikki there; might have been a little too much for some of you but eh

"Why can't I just sit around, talking with the people I love, drinking and smoking and occasionally writing an astoundingly brilliant novel every now and then?"
because in order to do that you need to learn the relevant skills. i know i'll get blasted by every stoner sitting on their couch strumming a g chord and thinking their unique. ever heard the saying "those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it" well i see it like that. i dont know the relevant studies to undertake but if your interested in creative writing then why not make that your focus. learn the techniques then choose where you use them. if you really wish to set yourself apart in any art form then you need to learn as much as you can about it. you'll probably be poor for the rest of your life but you might find more happiness and fulfillment than you would doing the 9-5

Hey, you shouldn't apologise for writing so much. OK, unless it was like 10 pages of quiz results. ;-) It's your journal and I thought it was cool.

Don't throw your life away just because it's not happening right now. All of my best achievements are things I've had to work hard for. I'm in it for the long haul, and I accept the fact that things will continue to suck/be painful until I get it right.
