Back Online

It seems Evil-Dog has his site back up, but under a new name. You can see his work at http://www.evil-dog.com

 

Until next time, remember: You can influence people you don't know just as easily as those you do.

Stuffing

Since school doesn't start for a few weeks, I'm just hanging out at home doing random things. I managed to finish one piece of music, and I posted it and a previous song I hadn't posted before on my website. The link (to my site) is at the top if you want to hear them.

 

Nothing else to add today.

 

Until next time, remember: Boredom is simply life's way of telling you that you need to get a life.

A Good Feeling

So I have returned from my "vacation" (actually a six-week summer program), and now that I've had time to sort my thoughts, I can post here again.

 

My life is filled with regret and unhappiness. I was alone for a large part of it, and I believed that I would always be alone, that I was fated to be this way. I never considered change really possible, and I used the phrase "Nothing ever changes" quite often.

 

But change occurred just a few weeks ago. I found someone with whom I find I don't feel sad. She gives me reason to be happy. I never thought I could feel happy like this. But what a feeling it is!

 

I've shown this girl a large part of myself that I'm not proud of. And she hasn't abandoned me for it. She hasn't condemned me for it. No, she sticks by me, and I feel happy. I would not trade that feeling for anything.

 

We had to part when the program ended, and of course I already miss her.

 

My notes in the notebook I carry around with me have noticeably changed. Fewer and fewer are melancholy, and many now deal with better things. Here's one saying that I must now live by:

 

Live each day as if you would see her tomorrow.

Live your life as though you never had to leave.

 

Until next time, remember: Never doubt the impossible.

The End is Closer

Well, it's been just about five weeks so far here, and so there's one left. It feels like I've been here forever, yet no time at all.

 

I'm busy most of the time, so that's why I've only been able to post once here. But it's a lot of fun, still.

 

I brought my some of my writing, programming, and music here, though I haven't been able to work on the programming at all. I did a little bit on the writing, but since I don't have all my notes, I felt kinda lost when I tried to continue. I made one change in the music, though I still haven't been able to play it, though I really want to.

 

But I'm happy here. I've made friends, whom I'm going to miss (but still keep in touch, of course). And, of course, leaving here means going back to school. Which means I have to do my homework.

 

But at home, I can certainly continue my work much better. Maybe I'll even finish. Who knows? It remains to be seen.

 

Until next time, remember: Progress cannot be made without an attempt to find a solution.

So I have access to a computer here. That's good. That means that I can still
update here, though there's not really much to talk about. Since I'm away from
my computer, I can't do any programming, but I do have some of my writing, and I
can always scribble notes down on paper.

But it's unlikely that I'll do very much. I'm very busy here. You're lucky that
I even get to post this.

The shuttle launches later today. I hope to see it (on TV. I'm not there!). And
there's nothing else even worth mentioning.

Until next time, remember: Your work can never be finished.
