That is what I call my new iPod. I go sleepless finding new indie artists to add to it. I looked up iTunes in the middle of a halo matchmaking session. I traded one addiction for another. This one though seems more fulfilling. I know that the general idea Apple's marketing tends to portray is that "you can have this AND have a social life". Or as one parody exaggerates it, "Macs get you laid." I am thinking of getting an iMac for college but I am not sure. Seems cool since I hate Vista. But I still love gaming. Hmm.

G1rls in the "friend zone"
posted at 12:45 am on 07-16-2008
I'd figure it is time to record the first time I asked someone out, and got turned down.
I am 18 and of course graduated. I met her (keeping it anonymous of course) when we were at church camp. We became best friends almost instantly. Of course my other best friend, my 15yo brother, was there. I always remained the "random, absent minded genius with some charisma" type, and my brother loves cracking jokes at my many mishaps, which I seem to enjoy. We hanged out after in movies and in the arcade food joint. I talked to her quite a bit, but I am not sure I am taking things too seriously.
I gotta control my contrarian attitude in "youth sessions" (reading the new Chris Hitchens book+being random and saying crap like Abraham got punk'd at the altar+reading more from the SAB or Skeptic's Annotated=not appropriate). Doesn't help that this new youth leader is a narrow-minded and callous Zionist. Obviously my views of the sacred are astray from nearly everyone, likely including her. The only one I feel I can have a deep discussion is with my close half-n-half friend.
Metaphysics and discussion ethics aside, I feel like I am not being serious enough, just goofing off and putting a front for people sometimes not realizing it. Nevertheless, I got turned down, saying we're not hanging out like that or something. My ethic, which i am developing now:
1)Know thyself
2)Be thyself
3)Improve thyself
4)Rinse and repeat
Right now I am going through this process sad but kinda optimistic about the many opportunities that can come out of this. We still talk a lot as friends and discussed my issues with putting up a front. I don't quite mind having a good friend to talk to, but I kinda feel like it should be more. All that is left to do is to is find the bright side "many fish in the pond" diversion. I think. Overthink. Crash. Awaken. Think. Overthink. Crash. Awaken. Think. Overthink.......................................................................................................................................................................................

This is the biggest thing ever since there have been many false alarms in my area.
