Did the same thing yesterday... and will do it agian tommorow.

My life latley has been like a broken record player. Everyday... it's been the same thing over and over. Here's how everything went everyday in the past few months...

Mom yells at me to wake up and go to school... I wake up... can't decide what to wear and pissed off because I can't find a decent pair of pants.... get dressed with comftrable clothes (spelling?)... sit down at the dinner table and eat my breakfast... 2 Ego's and a cup of tea(same as yesterday, same taste too)

[At this point, I'm already pissed off knowing the whole day is gonna be the same as the day before]

Get to school... first period through 6th, same crap as yesterday. Same as yesterday. Get home ... A.F./work on model cars until my brother comes home and he gets his computer time. I'm not alowed to drive (dad thinks I'm gonna streetrace like my brother), so I can't really go many places and make the day different.




When I greet one of my friends, they say "how you doin" (they already know what I'm gonna say) and I say... "same sh*t, different day"


I was so pissed off that everything was the same thing everyday, I decided to wake up at 5:00 Am instead of the usual 7:00 yesterday morning.

Is the rest of life going to be like this???

Aww well... can't wait 'till tommorow

Correction... 3 weeks, and I work 9-to-5 in those 2 weeks. Maybe it's my dads office, but I still work hard.

You should break something big, or blow something up.. Then that thing will be no more, like it was the day before. A change.

Or maybe try digging a hole.

Welcome to the monotonous drudgery known as 'life'. Unless you are rich, incredibly smart, talented, set apart or in some other way 'different', yes. This is your life. It will not vary too much. But remember - humans thrive on routine.

Only a loser would consider that life...
People with real lives always have something new to do, whether it be a new hobby, or a new project, sometimes even a new job - but if you're smart you'll already have the one you want. Robots thrive on routine, they're programmed, most humans have the ability to learn and therefore change is essential - unless of course you're stupid, or a loser.
I'll admit that there are losers out there who are afraid of things that do not fit within their "circle of conformity" but luckily there are alot of real people who are really living.
Maybe it's time for you to get a new hobby to change things a little? Why not try photography? Or get a new pet? Why not instead of sitting back and saying "I'm bored" actually do something instead of just sitting there thinking about how boring and lame you are.

High school may have finshed for me a whole decade ago- but I still remember the same old shit happening- nothing ever changed- wait until college and work- life will change drastically- at first you'll wish your life to go back the way it was- then you'll adapt to it- and you are then doing the same old different shit....


But hey- thats life

Sarcasm is lost on some people.
Depressing teenagers is like shooting fish in a barrel.

There is some validity to your first statement though. It seems like you have to have money to do any sort of hobby. Photography is particularly expensive (but worth it). I wish there were more things to do for people that don't have that much cash. A poolhall that doesn't cost 9 dollars an hour maybe? That's more than I make working.

Take up running. Pick up a new sport. Start weight lifting. I decided that I'd start running and doing pushups on a regular basis during my past semester and it made me feel a lot better. Granted, I've always hated running, but I'm starting to want to run, and I'm no where near "good" or "devoted" but I'm getting to do something new and different when I go out. It's great to get out some aggression by just thinking through it while your feet move you. It helps you think, too b/c your blood is circulating faster and more often, so your brain is getting more oxygen. Maybe you'll come across something really cool like underwater basketweaving as a new hobby. Not everything costs money, and exercising outside is one of the best inexpensive ways to do something w/o money.

Photography is expensive??? I wish somebody had told me that!
You'd be surprised how cheap you can get good equipment used, it's one of the most rewarding and affordable hobbies I have - and I have alot of hobbies...

Take random naps, just do something spurt of the moment, at school, if you see an opportunity to make something funny happen, take it, keep all possibilities open.
