I dragged this lake looking for corpses 
Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards 
Pieces of planes and black box recorders 
Don't lie (don't lie) 
And I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses 
That sense DNA on barbed wire fences 
Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect 
That has no alibi 
 
New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven 
I watched flies fuck on channel 11 
There was no one to kiss, there was nothing to drink 
Except some old rotten milk someone left in the sink 
And there's no ring, there's no ring on the phone anymore 
There's no reason to call I passed out on the floor 
Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisin dry 
 
But at the right place at the right time 
I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine 
I won't have to quit doing fucked up shit 
For anyone but me 
At the right place at the right time 
It will have been worth it to stand in line 
And you won't have to stop 
Saying "I love cops" for anyone but me 
Your private eye

You could never resist glorifying despair

Well, 50/50 chance I don't get my credits. Then it's a 30/70 chance against that I can take summer school, and from there a 50/50 chance that I'll still be allowed to attend Cambrian, with a 75% chance I'd get to keep my OSAP funding. Apparently there are online courses I can breeze through in a couple weeks... but dunno if they count towards college.

Yeah, things don't look so good.

If all else fails...

Oh right, I also need a job. Time to look at the Job Bank.

Atilla, his victory won...

As usual, I'm feeling rather shitty. This time it's pretty exclusively people though, rather than the mish-mash of things conspiring against me.

I try to be friends with people, because I try to be a nice person. Granted I don't even bother trying half the time, but still... it's irritating when other people don't give a crap, or just act like asses. Yes, I am aware of the hypocrisy in that paragraph.

I think I was right when I was speaking with Adric that it seems that the only people that seem to even attempt being good friends are people born in 1986, the year of the Tiger where they try their best to be true-blue friends. Granted there are a few exceptions, like always, but as a general rule of thumb, it seems to hold up.

I can name these exceptions, but suffice to say that out of all the people I know, the people that weren't born in 1986 that make good friends I can count on my fingers of my one hand.

I'm not biased enough to just say that the main reason is because these people grew up at the same rate, went through the same experiences at the same time, growing up with them... it's not that. At least, it's not that significant. It never meant much to me, and I don't rely on bringing up good memories from the past to bring a smile. (Those kinds of things tend to have people feeling left out.)

Or maybe it's just the fact that the people I seem to hang around with a lot more these days are assholes. Or the problem lies within me. Seeing as I'm feeling more bitter than shitty today, I'll go with the former for now.

...or I could stop holding people to unreasonably high standards.

Now, I should go deal with this blood running down my leg.

Sundown, you better take care, if I find you been creeping 'round my back stairs...

Why is that I can control most aspects of my body, accepting those that I cannot... Why is it, that this one thing I can't seem to change? Will it ever change?

I've thought about it a lot. Even if I work at it, I don't think I can change what is so deeply rooted in my mind without uprooting a lot of my precious topsoil and the accompanying forest of wisdom that comes with it.

Granted nothing is ever perfect... but do I strive for the ideal, and sacrifice what I've earned to get there?

Better yet, do I even want to?

A little cracked but still I'm not broken

Once again changed the song at the top. New favourite Bad Religion song.

Music banquet was fun. Not much else to say.

It's a wonderful world, alright. Oh, yes...

The question is where do I go from here?
