WWW: Where Were We?

Last post: April 20. It's not even that bad, there's still hope!

No need to defend myself, I've simply been hit by summer laze. Plus an increasing disgust towards internet and socializing websites. All the virtual tragicomic drama faerytale fantasy makes me wonder if there's anymore real life left. Especially when hearing about old acquaintances no longer visiting the places you use to meet at, events being moved away or cancelled and me, I'm stuck inside sobbing that life is too expensive and ridiculous. Plus some extra disgust towards the consumerist society that wastes, wastes, wastes and then destroys while in other countries people are literally starving to death. And that has added me a slight coating of cynicism.

And I feel old. Or better said, unaccomplished. Perhaps I'm ungrateful, but it pains me to see younger people already making it big while I struggle on the traditional path of higher education and then, if luck grants it, a job. Perhaps I'm not as pretty, skilled or even not as smart, but I cared a whole lot more! And still, they don't want people that care, they want people that are fun to stalk. That's where I went wrong...

What else can I do or say? I shall slowly accept my faith, secretly hoping that all of a sudden someone would notice me waving and shouting "hey, look over here, I know some tricks too!". And hope they're not gonna shoot me dead for thinking too much....

P.S.: Did you know that in most countries there is more money allocated to a prisoner's maintenance (food, cleaning, staff, energy and even TVs) than the average working person's salary? Money that comes from the taxes paid by those same working persons. And then we wonder that crime still happens....Please someone, buy me a one way ticket to the Moon!
