Reality....

UPDATE: I updated the list kind of, so if you are keeping track of  that feel free to check down there for some updates. I know you are trembling with excitement, but now on to the article.

So here is the thing. My cousin and I have this similar experience and I decided to share it with my lovely blog reading franz. This thing happens where it feels like reality is slipping away.....I know weird right. I can't really explain it but it's like things aren't real and I am going to break away from...life, reality, the world??? I don't really know. Sounds crazy? I know right. Anywho I thought I was the only one who experienced this weirdness until my cousin started talking about it.

I guess the thing I want to know is if other people experience things like this. If not, does everyone have some weird things that happen to them that they are terrified of telling other people. I mean I post mine on the internet for everyone to see, but before I was afraid to talk about it. I have real issues and this could be some side effect, but I'm not alone. Does everyone experience some unexplainable secret weirdness or just the crazy ones. I don't like to think I'm nutso but some of my friends and family might tell you otherwise.  It's just something to think about I suppose.

In non-crazy person news, I think I am going to start a pop culture blog. I know that I have trouble keeping this one updated but I love pop culture and think I will be better at keeping it updated. This is a personal blog and I would like to have a blog that seems a tad more professional if you know what I'm sayin. Until next time.

Flashback!

UPDATE: so far so fail on my list of things to do for the summer. I am working on some of them, but have failed miserably on others. I like to pretend that my small readership is interested in this sort of thing. I do have a job interview, wish me luck!

Now onto the random blog post of the day. I just remembered project playlist. Now for some of you who participated in the Myspace era, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Project playlist is a website where you can listen to any songs you want for free, then you could post your customized playlist to Myspace. That's the only reason I used this website and I assume it is the same for most people. I haven't visited the site since first semester of my freshman year. I expected to find a bunch of awesome songs from my past, what I got instead was a flashback full of depressing and angsty music.

I have to admit that I did feel a bit of nostalgia when I ventured into my screamo/punk past, but that music just doesn't fit my life anymore. Somewhere down the line I decided unintelligible screams and pig squeals  weren't my thing, and decided that pop and musical numbers were what I enjoy. I know! Big change right! When the music changed from Hawthorne Heights and Alesana to Lady Gaga and Glee I knew that I had  made a full blown switcheroo. I could see why my outlook was so bleak back then (I was having a tough time). I was a high school dropout, my mom had cancer, and I had no future in sight. I don't mean to create a sob story here but it seems obvious that my taste in music reflects whats happening in my life.

I realize that this post has little to no focus, but I will continue out of self-interest.  I don't want anyone to think I am dissing the music from my past, I'm not I promise. It helped me through a lot of stuff and kept me sane. I guess I didn't realize how much things change. Situations, taste in music, outlook on life, these are all things that have changed drastically in a few short years. I looked into my past and got a huge surprise. I have all of these plans for the future and now I'm not sure I will even be the same person by then. Just some food for thought I guess. Hope you enjoyed this random post. Until next time.

About that list of things

Hey imaginary viewers,

Sorry I never got around to posting that list of things I want to accomplish by the end of the summer. I wish I could say I was busy but............that would be an outright lie. I'm sorry I'll do better next time. I know my imaginary fans have been patiently waiting for my list of goals and I don't want to disappoint.

Actually I am going to disappoint. I'm sorry again (I suck at this.) I want to write a list of goals but that will require some thought. So that will be my first goal: to write a list of goals. I know it seems small, but I must take  baby steps my imaginary friends.  I will try to have them posted by tomorrow (not making any promises). Until then Hasta la Pasta!
