Ask Me Anything…
…but let’s try avoiding questions that will make me put my prepared noose into use.
Recently, my days have progressed in a rather mundane and repetitive manner. Wake up, brush teeth, wash face, look into the mirror and try not to break it, etc. I open up lappy and check my email (which usually contains no new messages, save an Urban Outfitters subscription), Twitter (I care about what my friends have for breakfast), Facebook (to cater to my love of narcissism), but more importantly, I open up Tumblr and look at an empty text post for 20 minutes, close it and cry to myself silently.
In my last desperate attempt to redeem whatever audience my blog has left, I called upon Formspring to be my muse. And by that, I mean I opened an account and begged strangers via Tumblr and Facebook to ask me some questions that would (hopefully) bring about some inspiration for my fingertips.
This is the gist of what my inbox contains after two days:
Do you feel like you’ve peaked early? Do you feel like you’re not reaching your full potential? Do you feel like you’ve already reached it? Does it kill you? Do you feel like you’re dying? Do you want to?
And to answer your question: Maybe. Yes. Kinda. Yes. A little. Now I do.
Just kidding on that last one.
But thanks for the kick in the ass. A kick that, I’m sure, will prevent me from sitting for a while. Now, I feel like I just have to prove my doubters wrong. I did not peak too early, it’s just time for me to evolve into whatever new persona I’m trying to achieve. One that does not only contain music updates and anecdotes that directly result from the excessive consumption of alcohol.
But then again, I am only a college student. A student that attends SDSU (Still Drunk, Still Uneducated) no less, a.k.a. the third party school in the nation.
Wait, who am I even kidding? That school hates me.
It seems I’ve gone off on a tangent…
Anyway, to sum up:
- I did not peak early. This is only the beginning.
- SDSU hates me.
- Thanks for the question but next time, please word it differently so that it doesn’t invite subsequent years of intensive therapy.
