5824: The Blog

I think it's funny (my funny is almost never ha ha funny) how everyone wants to make a name for themselves, and yet no one wants to be labelled. you don't just wanna be known as that dude that's hella athletic, or that girl that dresses real nice. you always want more. you want more of that cool. ice cold. genius. or maybe it's just that you end up being known for something that you know isn't really you. or maybe, psht doesn't matter, as soon as you got a rep, you gots to maintain.

I remember back in school, people would always tell me that I had a good memory, and that I was a good listener. man, I felt like I always had to remember everything people said (come on now, nobody remembers everything. word.) . I guess it's all good that the advice I give sucks then, eh. ;) something like that. I never know the right thing to say.

you know what I'm talkin bout? I dunno, I just wonder how in tune the person that other people know you as is with the real. the real you. I have a lot of trouble balancing the expectations of other people with the person that I am and with the person that I want to be.

I'm not sure I remember what I wanted to say anymore.

anyway, nick hornby writes, somewhere in high fidelity, that it's not about what you like, but what you're like.

well, to all those that got that down, I say, right on.

right on.
