Peace - where art thou?

So much for the resolution. Has been over a month, and didn't find time to sit down and write. I guess it makes sense in a way, I don't want to clutter up this space with mindless droning - blogging space may be free, but there's no reason to abuse that privilege.

My 8-track mind has been going through some rough scratches lately. Spent the break in a basement working for a computer hardware shop. Looks like the place will be my new hideout for a while - I'm the new manager. The good ol' days at the shop are gone - friends who worked left, the fun is gone and now its just another robotic mundane aspect of my life.

School officially sucks. Too much stress, not enough chill-time. I guess its good in a way - chilling is dangerous - cops usually come bursting in through the door, take names down and then you're on probation, your future is ruined, and if you're ever lucky enough to get a job - be prepared to do a lifetime of repentance. By contrast - the honest Catholic only gets 40 days for lent.

I guess I'm writing because I miss my life from a few months ago. Somebody once asked me if I knew the feeling of wanting something so bad that it hurts. Despite the fact that it was quite a ridiculous question about a completely ridiculous topic, I'm in a position where I'm desperately craving that which I want above all - my freedom. A bit of appreciation. Some good times, some good tunes and some good people. Is that really too much to ask for?

Peace - where are you?

well does peace always come the way you want it to?...I dont think so...I mean I know that you want to have that life back where you could just chill...but you know that is gone...the only way you could achieve peace at this point is to accept life the way it is.....btw...this does sound like MOM!!!!!:P and pretty cheesy....:D
