The dormitory life.

I...have been getting more and more agitated with my allergies. It went from minor stuff, to full blown congestion. Not to mention, it just saps my energy for some reason. That's the only explanation I can find, as to why I don't feel like writing/recording songs. So, school is officially over, and I couldn't help but feel a twang of sadness, as I was leaving the dorms. I really don't like leaving my "area", once I've grown accustomed to it. Anyway, the important thing here is next year, when I'll be rooming with three people. It's going to be single bedrooms, but I still worry about the people I'm going to be rooming with. They are the exact opposite of me, when it comes to how they live while in school. I'm more of a quiet person, I keep to myself, and I just like to do my own thing. They are not that quiet (not in a bad way, they just do more things than I), like to party, and are always doing something. However, I find that this is a small price to pay for having friends. Not to mention, Halo 3 teammates. Yeah, next year is going to be full of studying, Halo-ing, partying, and hopefully, music playing.
You know, cause my dream is still up for grabs.

What the fuck? Did I just land a kickflip?!

It's night time again, and I realized that my blogs are more and more apart, time wise. I guess that it's mainly twitters fault since it just takes mere seconds to just write what you're doing. So all that twittering stops the accumulation of things that would otherwise put into two, or three blogs! No matter, this isn't a regular blog anyways. I'm here to write about the things that bother me, and lately, not that many things bother me! Well, of course there are some, but they're forgotten after mere minutes. For instance, the whole "girlfriend" thing. I just try and not think about it really because if I do think about it, it just hurts more and more. And my just letting things be, I can't hold a grudge against my girlfriend, making me a lot less nasty on the phone, and a lot less bitchy as well.
The one thing that's creeping up however, is the philosophy final exam. I would love an A in that class, and I think that the only way to do so is to do extremely well on the final. The weird thing is that, even though I do feel this way, I still won't study for some reason. Maybe because I'm ready for the semester to end.
My songwriting is going well, by the way. Something interesting, whenever I'm out smoking, I usually come up with a lyric, or a riff. A couple months ago, those riffs would only remain in my head, simply because I just couldn't bring them into reality for lack of skills. Lately though, almost every riff I come up with in my mind, I can play on the guitar in five minutes or so. Pretty fucking cool, if you ask me.
I skateboarded again today, and you know what's weird? I can't pop ollies like I used to but I was able to land 5-6 kickflips! But wait, it doesn't stop there! I haven't landed a kickflip in over a year and a fucking half. I think my legs are retarded. Ah well, whatever. It's not like I care anymore, I just want to skate.
You know, cause nothing compares to riding a board down the street.

Seriously?

Ok, so I'm pretty sure you've all heard about dress codes in school. Yeah, those ridiculous rules from the 50's. Well, surprise surprise, those daft things still exist! Children get scrutinized for wearing clothing that might be considered "offensive", or "not fitting their age". Not to mention that girls skirts have to be longer than arms length. Why? Can someone please answer this question? But please, before you do, listen to this! The kids that dress "peculiarly", (you know, the goths, the punks etc.) don't get told off because the staff fears it might trigger another Columbine. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?! How messed up is this place? You can be an asshole to the kids that like wearing alcohol related shirts and ones with witty quips, yet you won't be an asshole to the goth kids because you think that they're criminally insane?! Jesus Christ and his gay-ass brother! Why?! Why even bother with what the kids wear? You talk about individuality, and how it's wonderful to be yourself but at the same time, you forcefully strip them from their, according to you, "god" given right of freedom of expression.
Kids! Listen to me, the next time they tell you to not wear hats or jackets, EVERYONE go to school with hats and jackets. They tell you to not wear flip flops or be barefoot? Do the exact fucking opposite! What do you think they're going to do? Expel all of you? Maybe once, but no more than twice. I mean, they can't deny you your education because of what you wear, right? Just wear whatever you want, and don't give a god damn kid, don't give a flying fuck. Shit, we all should just take a leaf out of V's book and do just that with out government. But that will never happen, everyone's too afraid. Too afraid, and so used to the status quo, that the mere thought of disturbing it gives everyone the chills. Just make sure that you learn something throughout all of this kid.
You know, cause without knowledge, we're fucked.
