| About Me | School was a place to meet people and check out hot chicks and that was it. I didn't like school at all. The platform sucks and I still think it does. I think white oak is a horrible school for people who want to transition into college unless it's a trade school or a community college with technology or technical programs. When you're there to check out chicks it's not gonna be fun because they gotta work and they'll blame you if they fail and so will the teachers. I dropped out in 1997 and moved out north west and had some experience and time really seems to fly when you leave onslow county..stands still otherwise...skateboarding and art and music became my path...I played in a band and was sponsored skater and always did my art projects and sold a few here and there...had some minor success and then it all stopped and I tried to get married and have a kid and grow into life....that didn't work out...I needed some more me time...so I turned that around and kept riding and digging my heels in and eventually i got control of the last horse I would ever ride...everything's cooled down alot and I'm back in control of things...not much else to it. I take it easy mostly..my body is beat up and I try to keep in shape but I'm getting old. I work around the house and yard and help my parents out mostly. I learn new things sometimes and if I could go back and do one thing I would probably just be an auto mechanic. I'm decent at that and it's a decent job. I think it's dirty for it's service prices and leaving people forfeit serious money if they can pay and without a car if they can't. But life lessons are hard and that's one of them. I never remarried or anything. I always get screwed in relationships and it never works out at all. I would like to have someone but life just doesnt work out that way. My one kid...I never see him...we divorced and never spoke again. I wanted to be married but...well...it just didn't turn out I got everything I needed to make it work for me and I would've liked to make it work for me because I chose to get married...but I needed alot more support to turn it around where I saw myself being happy and able to be a bigger part of the family...not just someone who sat and watched TV. I dont mind being taken care of...I appreciate that...it's awful kind...but...I just wanted to live a little more. I got what I wanted..but at the expense of losing my little family. It was good for me though. It was rough on me but I pulled through again. I miss it...but...I know I did the right thing for me by helping myself. I think she would understand if she really put her ears to work and listened to me clearly about it but it's not worth it to try. It's hard and she's moved on now. It's tough to know someone out there hates you and resents you but...I've dealt with that kind of thing and seen it over and over so I'm just stuck with it. Life goes on no matter what you lose or gain. Very few people can seize it up or throw a brake in life. People make it and others don't. At least I have a roof over my head and my troubles are all but behind me now. Nothing much more to it. Keeping clear of trouble is easy...avoid love...avoid young people...avoid other men...avoid drugs and alcohol...work as much and as often as I can and keep a clear conscience at all times. People think it's fun or heroic to be alone...it's not...it's really not. Alot of life is a fantasy unfortunately...we don't know that growing up...alot of people I know and don't live in another realm of logic and possibility because they've succeeded...I don't know which is better...which is real and which is an illusion...but I don't think either of them is really good or really real at all. I think everything is a substitute for the harsh truth that we are all in procession towards some end...some fate...and that ain't life...that's death. My guess is that's a product of politics and developer based in our countries plot and format for a bigger picture that results in a tragic view of the world and loss of self. That's my guess...and I assume that is how a picture works...you can step out of the frame and go do something else. That's how the big scheme of time works. Well...for me it doesn't...I stay in my lane and I stay in my picture. I guess it's all a matter of perception. In the end i didn't get to see the world or enjoy the adventure or meet new friends and live new places. I didn't achieve anything...I stayed home mostly and the rest seems like my little trivial war in whatever form it took. That's me though...playing war...my favorite thing. Sometimes it's beautiful and quiet...you're there just looking over emptiness...all around..other times it's all imagination and destruction as creativity...you have to win..you have to fight...you have to celebrate the pain...but life...(read more) |
