Looking back on the 90's

Don't laugh, but I miss the 90's.  It was my childhood, my good ole days, and the era that shaped how I see the world.  I look back on the 90's (as far as my childhood home county [you fuckers aren't gonna trick me into giving you my personal personals that easy hardy har har]) as being the last era where people weren't alienated from one another.  The 90's for me was a time of mom and pop businesses, good tunes, and sweet VHS renting.  I hope to take the lessons I learned in the 90's and apply them today and hopefully amp up the spirit of this era.  The zeitgeist of today is one of isolation and fear.  It is one of despair, hopelessness, and a total lack of understanding the world has people other than ourselves.  Looking back, even the darkest parts of the 90's I experienced seem golden.  Maybe its because I only seem to remember the good, or the fact that I am romanticizing it the way cheap dimestore novels portray Fabio.  Who knows.  I do know that I will always treat the 90's as the measuring stick I compare all my future decades to...

Growing up Growing old Growing out

So I have one semester of college left.  I  am not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing.  I kind of like being a student actually, I've been one for most of my life and I've been rather good at it I like to think.  I'm not sure if I am ready to be a "productive citizen" or not.  I am not sure if I am ready to be a responsible bill paying home owner with a mortage, a white picket fence, and a two car garage in suburbia yet.  Life feels like it is speeding up even though I try to slow it down.  I feel like Superman on kryptonite falling through the skyline, falling down to the rest of my life.  I look onto the world and I do not see a wonderful place, I see hardship and Ramen Noodle suppers and Dollar Menu diners.  I hope for a better tommorow and a brighter future.  I have hope that the times will not be dark all the time.  Afterall, it can't rain all the time...

Nate has a blogger account (GASP!)

So I've finally decided to make a blogger account.  I have no idea what to say on it but I will think of something as I always do.  I may decide to use this as a way to write my memoirs, my autobiography, or a manual on how to fly a 747 in German. SO who knows what I will say, afterall this is my mad world and I am the editor... derp
