Author Topic: I'm a good guy (EB Confessions Vol 1) (Read 13043 times)

WrikaWrek · « **on:** February 18, 2009, 07:10:47 PM »

I really am. I know i sound like an asshole most of the time around here, because i guess i'm trying to compensate for some repressed anger, for shit i've let to pass, for the death of beloved ones, for losing friends to time, for feeling like, that for a kid who used to dream about an exciting world, the world has come to present itself, incredibly hellish at times.

I don't have it in me anymore though, i'm no longer secretly angry about anything, as duckman would say, i'm running on cruise control, and that's not fun anymore. And the holy sarcastic tone, and satirical outbursts without any reason i believe in, are shit.

I really am a sorry for acting like a moron most of the times here, but the "joke character" (was no joke, although it wasn't entirely real), is over.

EB deserves better, and i will do better, it's time to accept i'm not the guy who will slap a ho, i'm not the guy that will make you feel like a piece of shit out of spite, i'm not the guy that bones the barely conscious drunken bitches, i'm not the guy that lies in your face just to make me look better, i'm not the guy that doesn't give a fuck about those who are oppressed, and although i might have seen it as a flaw, in the times it served my interests the least, although i might have been angry at myself for not moving up the ladder at the cost of others, for feeling that sometimes, being who i was wasn't fulfilling enough, driven by the amount of content that is fed into your brain about what's cool and what's not, and i might have once tried to be what i'm not, but i say to you today, this shall not go any further, for i am here, telling you, i am, a good guy.

I just don't because I want to piss you off. I'd also like to confess that I'm also a really nice dude too.

I realize that there are tons of people these days who have aspirations of "being a writer" and that I have a pretty big hurdle to climb over before getting anywhere, but I at least have the ability to put enough words together to make a story that's novel length and I really enjoy doing it and always have.

Your future will be working 2 or 3 jobs to escape the clutches of poverty (if you make it out of it), not even giving you the time to even write. Since it is 2G2D, replace "2 or 3 jobs" with "waiting at a soup kitchen."

You should do Accounting and write in your off hours

I too wish to write. I know enough words to string together a novella if I use every word I know all in a row. Sure it will be incoherent, like a dictionary without the descriptions, but it's my dream. I'll mark it as philosophy and see if anyone notices.

A lot of people have similar dreams. Unfortunately it's rather difficult to make a living writing and more difficult to get your work published and read.

I understand that. But there are people that make it work and make it work well, there's no reason to believe that that always has to be the other guy. But what it really comes down to is this: Would I rather have some financial success doing something that I don't really love or struggle trying to succeed at something that I actually do love? And I kind of feel like if I don't try to make something of my writing as soon as possible, it'll keep getting put off and put off in favor of works, social life, ect. and I'll never actually get anywhere with it.

I'm not in danger of being kicked out on the street any time soon and I've got options to fall back on, so I really want to make a strong push here and see what happens.

But let's get serious here. If Cristopher Paolini and Stephenie Meyer can make a bazillion dollars as writers, then I figure I've got at least a shot at making a living off of a it.

I've got a story that I'm working on right now that's been in development for almost five years and has just pushed past the 200,000 word mark. The writing style is still a bit simplistic and some of the story elements will no doubt need some major tightening, but it's not like I'm trying to brag about ten page Dragon Ball fanfiction.

I've been stuck in a horrible rut for more than 2 years now... which is how long it's been since I had my last steady job. I've gotten by through a combination of luck and good fortune, and even managed to get ahead a bit financially. But at the same time I feel like I've really regressed as a person- I have no social life and I'm not sure I even want one; I have avoided making any choices that have consequences to them, like pursuing an actual career, romantic interests or going back to school. I'm pretty sure that I'm afraid of failure in any of these endeavors, which is what is causing me to simply avoid pursuing any of them. Can't fail if you don't try, I guess.

On the plus side, I drink way less than I used to, which is better for me pretty much across the board.

I'm not a people person. I avoid crowds at all costs. I turn down party invites/networking socials because I don't want to be around other folks. I just get bored and want to go read by myself, or get on the computer. People who have met me will say I'm far from a social cretin. I just like hanging out with myself

I've been flirting with the idea of calling off my birthday dinner tonight. But since I've already met some of the people for lunch earlier today, I can't fake illness without them knowing otherwise. smh

It must be something about studying accounting that makes nobody want to be an accountant. I'm afraid I'm falling (or have already fallen) into the same category.

It seems interesting at first, but by the end you realize how soul-crushing and time-consuming it really is. Plus, if you're an auditor you get to deal with the corporate hell of yours and someone else's company!

I was disillusioned with accounting before I graduated, but I didn't decide that it wasn't going to be my career path until I completed a CPA internship during tax season

I think my old best friend of like 15 years is about to kill himself. Seriously. But he's burned so many bridges that nobody can help him anymore. Hell, the local jail doesn't even want him anymore.

He's barely human anymore. His brother killed himself about a year ago. I won't be surprised if he'll be gone by the end of this one. I'm numbing myself to this "realization" because I really don't know what to do anymore. He *snapped* about 4-5 years ago. Maji sorta knows what I'm talking about. But, whatever is going on in his head has only gotten worse in recent weeks. I've been getting random calls from him lately where he barely puts together sentences. He's making up stories about moving to different cities to different friends and says he's giving everything away. He has nothing to give. He has nowhere to go. When he finally "leaves for Los Angeles" I can only take that to mean he's leaving to go kill himself.

Heh. Now I'm depressed again.

that's horrible.
