I feel as if I am dying.

Not physically, mind you, but mentally and spiritually.

School is a bore; I’m ready to finish college and start my life, but this is taking too **** long. I’m ready to see the world! There is so much I’m ready to accomplish in my life. I want to be a historical journalist, seeing and writing about things that most people can only dream of.

But I don’t want to do it alone. I need a steady presence; a kindred spirit. I’m not one to look for love; I’d rather it find me. I know this sounds HORRIBLY corny, but I’ve been ready to find someone that compliments who I am perfectly. I’ve been through two relationships with genuinely unique ladies, but neither of them felt as though they completed my soul. The closest I’ve come to finding that match is in my chihuahua.

I’m visiting England next year for spring break. I’m incredibly excited; I get to visit an entirely new country (though America is practically several countries in one itself), and I may potentially get to visit a good friend of mine. But I don’t feel as though I’ll LEARN anything. I’ll be visiting as a tourist, not as a scholar or student. I’m going to be visiting museums and attractions, but I’m worried that I won’t appreciate all of that when I’m there. It’s tough to explain. I’m also worried about meeting my friend. I’m not quite sure what to think about that; it could go badly, or it could be the best thing I’ve ever done. Even if we have a blast while I’m there, I still have to leave four days later. I don’t want to miss her, and vice versa, because our chances of seeing each other on a regular basis are slim to none.

I suppose this is a venting/ranting if anything. It’s 12:30pm here where I live, and there is no one available to talk to. I feel trapped by where I am, and this blasted website is my only escape right now.

There are so many things I want to see and do, and I’ve been working towards them for such a long time. But it seems like every time I make a breakthrough toward my goals, a hundred new obstacles arise. I really NEED this trip to England, for more than just the visit. I need to remind myself what I’m working toward, I think. It will show me parts of the world I’ve never been to, and I’m hoping to be re-inspired, I suppose.

so try and change up your habits. make special time to do whatever you want. especially when you are in england don’t let other people dictate your actions. maybe that’s what you need to re-inspire you.

I hate to say the thing that no one ever wants to hear, but I must. You will meet the right person when the time is right. I know the advice sucks, but hey, the truth always hurts too. As soon as you get settled and are entering the real world then you will meet the right person and hopefully have a happy life. Just remember to hang tough, stay strong and by all means man look a little for love because you pass that person and never know it.

Ummmm, I’m pretty sure I’m not gay….if I were I think I’d be attracted to men, which I’m not. What I mean is that I haven’t found the right girl, not that girls in general aren’t right for me. Thanks for the help, though, if you were serious.
