expectations

let's chronicle my summer thus far...

free from school's shackles:
started off really dope. lot's of random stuff, lot's of hanging out. late nights, late days, swimming, visits, etc. was what i hoped for.

in search of...:
looking for a job pretty much anywhere to get up the funds. me and neil driving around random nearby cities. looking for a job in the early hours into the afternoon, then head back to play basketball or eat or hang with people. was pretty fun. we had a task to accomplish, then once we were finished with this "work" we'd go play. it was chill, would've been cool with this type of activity for a while.

working man:
since having my job, summer has went on a MAJOR decline as far as entertainment is concerned. every day i get out of work, everyone is at home asleep. every day i'm off work, everyone is at home doing nothing. every day before i start work, everyone is at home. wtf is going on. nobody does anything anymore. i've been complaining about this for like the past two weeks (i do love complaining), and it just gets worse and worse. this is the most boring period of any summer i've endured in my 18 years of living/enjoying summers. in all seriousness, the highlight of my day is going to work. you may be wondering why - because i have something to do and actually get to encounter human interaction. at my house everyone sleeps. that's it. sleep, go to work, sleep, repeat. there's nothing to do at home, so i like to go out. only problem is, everyone else feels the complete opposite. there's nothing to do outside, so instead of creating something or finding something to do, they'd rather sit home and "save money" or "relax" or "do absolutely nothing within the comforts of my own room with absolutely nobody else's company." goodness, this is driving me insane. next year, i've decided i won't come home from school more than twice a month. i want to come home once a month at most, so i can actually have something to do. also, when i come back home people will actually want to hang out and i don't have to worry about doing what i've been doing for the past three weeks every weekend i come back. don't get me wrong, last year everyone was down on the weekends to chill. but i don't want to cater anymore, i want to make things easier for me. i want to prefer situations more convenient to my schedule. naturally, i'm sure there will be consequences, but what the hell - can't possibly be lead to more boredom than i've sustained over the past few weeks.

wake me up when september comes around, bet everyone will get all nostalgic and available around then.
