Well, This is it, my new space. It's kinda cozy isn't it?
Anyways, I probably should answer some questions first.
Who Am I?
I'm just a kid. Noone special tho. male, early 20's, college, girls, work. You know, the usual suspects.
What Is This?
This...This is my life. Not in the normal "look at me, look at me!" sense. I hope it will be more in the "Here's where I went wrong" sense. Or maybe the always classic "Did you even think about this?" sense. Either way, I hope its an interesting read.
Okay, now onto the fun part.
Sir Francis Bacon once said, "If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts he shall end in certainties." Now, let me explain what I take from that. A few weekends ago, I had the ever pleasant experience of going out with a girl. I guess at this point you should know two things. One, I love quotes. Two, I also love sarcasm. Take that last statement for example. Yes, I had a very nice time, and thought she did too. But upon later words, I found out she did not. "It felt forced" she said. "I had a lot of fun, but it was just weird at times."
"I had a lot of fun, but it was just weird at times." Oh great, weird? WEIRD? Come on, what could she possibly mean by "weird"? Then it occurred to me...The way we were going, I came into the date expecting nothing short of a relationship. This gentlemen, is where I should make my point. never, EVER, go into a date expecting an outcome. If you do, you will surely shoot yourself in the foot. Que the Quote please! I started with certainties and now I'm sitting here listening to sappy music (Believe by Staind, don't get me wrong, great song, love the guitar work, but sappy) and wondering what will become of this situation. So I guess you could say, I started with certainty of the outcome, and now I'm typing and doubting everything about the situation. When, I guess according to Francis Bacon, if i would have just walked in with doubts, or an open mind, then i would have walked out with certainity, either "girlfriend" or "this wont work".
Touche Sir Bacon, Touche.
S.T.
