Here it is…my last post. Not ever…but for awhile.
I'm leaving on Friday and not returning 'til July 14. So I suppose that this last post should be the best. (I say 'should' because it really deserves to be, but probably won't.)
I don't necessarily have a subject to speak on. Life has been, well, life. Nothing short, and nothing which has blasted my expectations away.
Actually, who am I kidding? Life has been falling short lately. With my increasing boredom, and incessant questioning of myself, life has become what I expected it to be during the summer: a waste of time. I had 3 goals which I thought — actually, I knew – that I would accomplish.
Those were:
- Get stronger
- Get a job
- Make money
So far, I have accomplished none. And I will go as far as to say that I have actually done the complete opposite of all of them.
I have been unable to get stronger because of the fact that my wrist will still not allow me to lift as much as I need to. I have been unable to get a job because everywhere I want to work requires that you have some sort of resume' — and at the tender age of 16, I don't have such things. And, finally, I haven't made any money because I don't have a job. Embarrassingly enough, I have lost more money than anything: I have managed to spend 3/4 of my savings on gas alone…terrific. I hate buying gas…but that is another subject entirely — one that I wish not to go off on, because it will probably sound misinformed and narrow-minded anyways.
So far, this summer has been a waste of time. I've known that since the beginning — since the first week actually. I've also known that I should do something to fix that; however, that would require quite bit of effort — effort I wish not to use. I hear people say: "The future is in your (my) hands…"; sadly, my hands lack the strength to hold the future. Interpret that last sentence however you like; I'm not sure what it's supposed to mean, it just came to me, so I wrote it down.
I hate writing such a pessimistic post — especially since it will be my last for a good 3 weeks — but I can't help it. I like to be honest when speaking/writing to other people, so I'm not going to pretend that I'm happy with how my summer has gone and what I have done during it.
So, on this rather depressing last note, I say goodbye, farewell, auf wiedersehen…until July 14 — when, hopefully, I will have some sort of new material to mesmerize you all with.





Take it easy–a vacation is sometimes the best thing to have when you can think of nothing at all.
You’ll probably return with a new lease on life. If not, at least you’ll have taken some time to explore some things differently.
Have a great vacation. Don’t dwell on what you haven’t accomplished. It’s only the end of June, after all. If you aren’t able, for the reasons stated, to accomplish your goals, then set them aside for awhile and find some new ones. Goals that you know you will be able to accomplish. And probably, in the end, you’ll end up accomplishing some of your original ones.
