I started my new job as a glorified busboy at Hornsby RSL, "General Steward". But I should get behind the bar in about 1 to 2 months and it pays double what I was getting at my last job on the lowest paying days.

I've become more reclusive... sometimes when I go outside everything seems so... surreal and bright.

I started playing D&D, lol, I play a Porthos-esque (1993 Disney rendition of The Three Musketeers) rogue named Rairle Sobar.

Well let's see... I've done really badly at school, i've done really well at school, got a new phone, got a new laptop, i've procrastinated getting a job, i've wrote my Résumé, I finally came out to Veronica and things seemed good, I deeply offended Veronica and she still can't look at me, I started talking to Sparky, I started getting involved with Sparky, I started being ignored by Sparky, I started being rejected by Sparky.

That's about where I am now.
So I guess there's no doubt left about my latest literature deviation: The Score So Far. It's not my usual style apart from y'know.. the jittery pace and seemingly nonsense progression of it.

I don't care I quite like it.. Some rough parts but on the whole, I like it. That's what matters right?

Firstly I was walking home from meeting with my friends at westfield... What did the sign say pointing to Westfield at the station? "This way to Hornsby MALL"

Now yes technically the area before Westfield is a mall in Australian English... but do we really have to? I know before I thought about it I thought it was referring to Westfield as the mall... and that would seem a little too american for my taste. Can't it just be a shopping centre.. or something? Please not a mall.

I doubt anyone even understands what a mall in Aus-En is: A pedestrianised street. So these people will obviously think its referring to Westfield.. and most of them will think (even if not consciously) "Yay it's like how they call them malls in America! that's great!". No, this is Australia, we're not American were far closer to British. As far as English goes, lets keep it that way.
'Kay? 'Kay...


Now when I was meeting my friends.. it was generally good.. for a time.. but then.. Peeves has to pull out a drawing and show it to Hatz.. and won't show it to me... I thought things between me and Peeves were better these days... at least enough for me to see what she'd drawn.. But if that isn't enough well fuck that shit...

Everyone used to confide in me, everyone used to trust me, but y'know what? Nobody does anymore, know why? I have no clue. I haven't changed they have I suppose. They can't see me for what I am.. despite my flaws I am trustworthy when it comes to secrets... drawings.. whatever I guess.. But anyway it's just a drawing why be so secretive...


Tune in next time for more tales of absolute cunts

Dear deceivers,
Yeah you seemed real cool, but you were just tricking me. You give off an awesome image but deep down you aren't. I could break my rules, if you weren't so ridiculous. Too bad for you, I don't associate with shit-eaters.

Why is it I cannot seem to articulate anything in conversation or writing (essays & presentations) properly? I could just say everyone lacks comprehension skills (and i'm sure someone from Macquarie Uni that specialises in learning disabilities or something probably could) but that's not it. I just can't put my thoughts into words. I am already perceived as smart... but if I could put into words what I formulate in my mind... I'd probably be a genius ^^. (considering I already pass for smart which is a surprise sometimes)

So I skipped last period of school today.. Hung out with Lyndsay and Hatz for the afternoon. So anyway after buying dvds.. Hatz buying me lunch/afternoon tea.. Then borders me and Hatz walked back to the station.

So we were talking and.. She said that i'm strange Well I know that but it's kind of odd to have it said. I have a disdain for life (as she said and I agree) and so does she however she tries to be nice to people whilst I do not extend that courtesy. But the fact that she mentioned that she thinks I have a disdain for life is interesting because of the poem I wrote last week:

Sonnet: "Conflict of Interest"

Life is so wondrous, too strong to contain,
You all gladly consent,
I'd rather abstain,
Hence my dissent

If all I did object,
Was the mere pain,
I'm sure i'd find a way to redirect,
My whole-hearted disdain

For the thing we call life,
drags on and on, with small delight,
With pain and hate it is rife,
Only love strong enough to enlight

The empty shell that is my soul,
Light my heart, that lump of coal

Anyways that's it.

Well until next time,

It's me again.. Okay i'll stop being stupid.

dA/writing -

So i'm doing a fair bit of writing, now i'm practising structures poetry, i've written a few sonnets. Not so much harder exactly, but it's sort of annoying to have rules. May try writing some villanelles next.

School -

Failed Chemistry and English. Apparently i'm good at the hard part of chemistry (pure chemistry) and bad at the easy part (applied chemistry). I think i'll drop general maths since it's just pointless and annoying as hell. That is if I don't just drop out.

What else? -

Internet is uncapped again.
My birthday next Wednesday.
I bought Mount & Blade (no more cracks)

Well until next time,

It sucks, I think. It's growing on me though, just doesn't feel the same as the others.
Speaking of deviations, does anybody know how to put things into scraps these days?
I'm an oldtimer see...

Thumbsshare is so biased it's unfair. Us writers what do we get? Nothing. Well we have one small thread in the subscriber Thumbsshare board but using DAmn Thumbsshare is basically pointless.

Anyway, laters.

Writing Habits and tidbits!

So far i've done all my writing of The Posthuman trilogy (Trilogy in theory. In theory Communism works.) on paper. Father Killed my Friends was written in notepad. It gives me a different feeling from the others.

My poems generally take up about 3 times the length they are when written due to revision.

I don't write notes while going along or draft/brainstorm, I just keep the thoughts in my head and write what comes to me as I go along.

I get frustrated when I have to wrap a line onto the next line.

I generally write at night in my bed.

I (in comparison) like to keep my poetry short and I prefer smaller stanzas of 2-4 lines.

I am straying from my general plan of attack with writing 'The Fallen of The Posthuman' by brainstorming prior and drafting it. As mentioned in one of my deviation notes I don't particularly like this. As it feels manufactured and artificial. I think if i'm not particularly inspired to something interesting I will go back to my previous strategy as it seems to be far more efficient.



Preview, The Fallen of The Posthuman St. 2

Evil perfected, Obsidian, a cutting edge,
Does beauty give you reprieve from your self-inflicted scarification?
Does the evil turn Obsidian to Pumice?
Beauty turned hideous, power dulled,
Impotence of a blunt sword blade

As I said it doesn't impress me. But feedback would help. As it is I think i'll scrap what i've written so far and start again.

Well that's all for now See you all again soon.

Now as you can see, I am a subscriber! This means when I can be bothered i'll pimp out my journal 'n' shit.

School starts again tomorrow and its going to be full of AIDS and fail. No more cool friends in year 12. Well still a few 'cause now i'm in year 12 but yeah. This is gay i'm going to fail my HSC and become a hobo. Though i'm sure a hobo has his high points in life. Maybe i'll just marry someone who'll work and ill be a househusband? The possibilities! They could do like Desperate Househusbands as the next show.

Anyway until next time, Turduckens are playful. Err I mean, bye!

You freeloaders, what am I paying you for? To sit around commenting my journal? No! "But Master Man Power, you aren't paying us at all" "Quiet you cur! You'll be paid afterwards."

Anyway check out (and please comment) on my deviations. I love the positive feedback, but i'd love it even more on the deviation comments. Danke in advance. (or y'know don't bother, whatever)

We're back!

Indeed. A wise man once said "It is better to have lost not loved and never have loved at all" he was right.
Not necessarily as popular as Alfred Lord Tennyson whom said "'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all."

So Man Power, Esquire. Has returned. None shall notice the difference however..

You are dismissed.
