Dear beloved readers,
Hey blog, how's it been? Lengthy time since I've touched you. I'm supposed to be writing again, cause my counselor says it's therapeutic for my soul? Whatever. The thing is, so much frustration, so little time, don't know where to begin. She says to just bear it all, so here I go, writing while listening to the "Ballad of Mona Lisa" by Panic! At The Disco. Kinda' like the vibe of the song. The innocent soul? The wronged? Injustice finally revealed? Ok, I'm a take a step back, getting too morbid and sad here.
Well, the thing is, I want to so much be in touch with my friends again, it all seems so very difficult with the fiasco that just happened between us a few weeks ago and I don't know how to patch things up again. Since when did planning an event get to be so stressful? I mean, all you have to do is to call up a few friends, set a location and date, and be there right? How hard is that? Well, for the people in my life, that simple request seems to take mammoth amounts of time and energy to accomplish. Some have work on that day, others can't make it, some can only make it for a while, yadda yadda yadda... The list seems to go on and on. And in my mind, the main factor I keep deducting that is keeping us apart is simple: Work.
I'm not saying that work is not important, I mean, we all gotta' be paying our own bills right, but what I really feel is that we, AS FRIENDS, really need to make it work by setting aside some of our time for each other. Eh, now I can really see that writing really is therapeutic. :)
I've identified the main villain here. So next, I gotta take steps to vanquish him away! Well, what I did in that respect was to organize a soccer event. All expense paid trip by me. Oh boy, yeah, smart idea, dumb for my wallet. Everything will be provided for (gotta' factor in the food, drinks, transportation) and all they gotta do is just show up. Simple and sweet. You see, I'm the type of guy who really likes big outings where all of my friends are together, having a good time.
Good lord, please don't let it fail on me now.
Truthfully and as always,
Lokman
P.S. Any of you guys out there from the States? Don't see a lot of Asian dudes writing like me, don't ya? :P
