It's weird. My life, overall, is pretty good. Pretty happy, on a college course I enjoy with decent people, friends RL (need to organize the birthday thing still) and online. No job and spend too much time online, but the way life is allows me to, and I'll get that damn job someday. When I can drive to it, probably.

I can't help but feel like I don't deserve it sometimes. Like I'm not doing enough to. Talk to Mum - she says that all she wants is to know I've had the best start, gotten the most out of being young... and I'm grateful, I'm so grateful for everything, but I feel like Peter Pan. I don't know how to grow up. I feel like I need the kick up the pants I've never gotten. Life's never been hard to me; I've never had any big emotrauma except a few assholes in school. (Big enough then, sure, but it could have been a lot worse, they never used force.)

And I can't help but wonder when I've got to pay.

It's like there's a Dorian Gray painting in our attic. It's not a painting that grows older; it's one of a family scene that just gets worse. Or it's a photograph album, and there's pictures in it of me arguing with the family, storming out of the house, going through troubles of all sorts. (Neil Gaiman wrote a story about this kind of thing, actually, figures he would...) And in the meantime, I'm having it all too easy. That's what it feels like...

...I'm screwed. I'm sitting here typing with tears running down my face, so much LJ angst.

Mum's hounding me to get onto another course - I don't want to be on another degree course. And I especially don't want to be stuck back here when I do the next whatever I do. I don't even think I can get onto a degree thingy this year anyway. Mum's saying engineering stuff for some reason, I don't know why she thinks that's a good move - part of it appeals but there's a little bit of me screaming. (Sarge, this is Simmons, I'm not happy with this plan... </gratuitousRVB>)

But the thing is, I don't know what I want to do, I don't know where I want to go, I just want to get the hell away from here. I don't know if I want to continue in the path I've started.
I want to get away. It's the whole they want experience before you let you in but where do you get experience and especially around here in the freaking MIDDLE OF NOWHERE.

I just want to move on.

Hey, Gem, if you're reading this, how the hell do I get onto a course like the one you did? 'Cause it might be the only freaking chance I have.
Either that or I double check the whole genetic crap military stuff situation.a

So this is it. The party last night was great, everyone had a wild time... said goodbye...
And it's strange wondering whether I'll get a chance to see them all again. They're saying their own goodbyes this week, packing up, leaving their houses and going home again after so long.

There aren't many people I've managed to stay in contact with through the twists and turns of life. I've lost contact with everyone from school. I've got everyone's emails, but I still wonder...

Have I always got to move on like this? I don't want to keep losing people...
...sigh.

Urrrrrgh.

How the hell is is possible that I can hate my own style so much? Not to sound like I'm showing off, but I know I'm good at what I'm good at. ;)
Thing is, what I'm good at? Not what I want to be good at. (For the most part, I can live with the good at armour/cybernetics thing, heh.)

But yeah. I'd do anything to be good at realism. At stuff that itsn't stylised. And yeah, I try, I practice, and I know that's the main thing. I just - goddamn it, I don't know.
I don't like my style. Nice happy anime or semi-anime? I don't want to do the happy stuff. Hell, it's not like I want to do the really gloomy crap either. But I just... want to get away. Study animation and character design for long enough and it's bound to drive you up the wall and away from cute stuff...
I don't have the patience or the eye for details, and it annoys me. I just don't know how to get away...

Eh, pointless, selfish rant probably. But it just went - gah. Sometimes, it's hard not to be selfish.

Cut for rambling. )

BTW? Still no hurtyness, and I haven't even touched the painkillers today in case. I am invincible!

Okay, so?
It's like this.

I'm addicted to the Internet.

I don't mean in the 'lolz I r intarwebs addict!!1' way. I mean seriously psychologically addicted. I mean I have no control over finding myself dragged back online just because.
I literally do need help. This is actually seriously damaging my life...

Planning on seeing the counsellor at college tomorrow. See if I can actually get myself into shape at all.
If I vanish, you know what's happening.

Thanks, guys.

Kind of strange. I've never had as many friends in my entire LIFE as I do at the moment - and this is not actually an exaggeration. I've got my class, I've got you lot listening to me blather. And everyone is cool as hell.
But there are still times I feel like an outsider.
No idea why. Sometimes, it just feels like there are things everyone else Just Knows that I don't... like I'm missing the big picture, or some little jigsaw piece...

Ah well. Enough random from me. I'm not actually in a bad mood or anything so don't worry about me. Just thinking, that's all.

What is love? (Please don't insert 'baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more, head nod, head nod'). Cause I'm damned if I know.
Never been kissed. Never wanted to kiss. Never had a boyfriend (or girlfriend). Never had more than a faint crush, and hell, I might've been fooling myself over those. Convincing myself that 'huh, he's kinda sweet' = crush.
Maybe you know it if you know it, but I don't know... I know what it is to care, to feel affection. But where that passes into love... hell.

There are times I feel - hell, I feel like Lopez, and I know that probably sounds hella cryptic to anyone outside B_G, sorry. I feel like the human race is charging off without me, sometimes, and I'm stuck at the starting line wondering what is what. See people who can care for each other like that. And I wonder what I don't know that they must.
What is it I'm missing? What's the big secret?

Maybe the reason I obsess over cyborgs and robots is 'cause it feels like we have something in common.

Who the hell am I? I don't know. H.B.. Never the same name twice, never the same person. Not because I don't want to be, because I've never been able to decide - never been happy with the name I was given, never able to take on a new one. Though the people I am now are the happiest I've ever been...
What am I doing here? I don't know that either. I just drift by.

...Hell, I'm getting emo. I don't want to get emo.
But sometimes I can't help it...

([livejournal.com profile] deltashade, I blame you for this post. ;p )

Maybe it's just my late night brain writing. It's certainly making enough typos.

If you were just reading my journal, minus the -chan username and 'girl rant' posts, what would I sound like?
When it comes down to it, online, the difference between guy and girl is just a letter. Or two, yeah, but the details aren't the point. Or three. ...Where was I?
I enjoy the mixups. I enjoy being androgynous online. Hypersoldier on RvB is a guy, PhoenixTrooper on devArt is a girl, doesn't matter, doesn't mean anything. (I don't actively *say* that on either, mind. That's just from the pronouns etc I get chucked at me. I think I've only ever got one 'she' on RvB and that was off [livejournal.com profile] artemischan ;) )

I don't care for being a girl (and not like the bits are actually worth squat in my case), wouldn't care for being a guy either - I'm just a person. But as soon as you step outside the digital world the two X chromosomes show their faces.
I reserve the right to like whatever the hell I like from either gender's half of it all. Don't give a damn about being pretty or fluffy, and it's sure as hell lightish red not pink, but I reserve the right to squee when the opportunity presents itself.
Why does it feel like these have to contradict each other?

...Eh, whatever. I need sleep. Not LJ.

Rambly confessional type post. Quite possibly tl;dr. Contains Girl Stuff, so lads, you might want to skip this. )

Also, LJ seems to have sorted out its little Comments, What Comments issue. I seem to be getting whammed with comments posted a week ago. Which is getting rather confusing, I don't know if the emails I'm getting are from now or they just got lost in a time warp...
