Depressed

Postby uRa » Fri Dec 02, 2005 1:59 am

Hi, here is 2.53 a.m. Tomorrow I won't go to the beach and for this weekend there are 7 metres of waves... surelly I won't go to the beach because is too big :cry:

Sometimes in the dark don't you stop and think and suddenly only surfing is what really matters? I'm getting philosophical... sorry for this post... :?

No boyfriend, xxxxx work, still studing, no money... but no waves????? it's a torture! what have I done wrong in my last life? jejejejeje... isn't it funny at last? jejejejje

Good evening...

but then again, after seeing what some of my friends have gone through recently with family deaths, or their own deaths, what Ive got aint so bad

You're right, there are people who are worse than me... :oops: but sometimes when I'm bad I feel the center of the world and I feel selfish...

Yes, I live close to the sea, just in front of the sea, in a dock city...

(That's the problem with seeing the "glass" always full of water,that oteher times I see it just empty!... I'll try to remember your words, thanks a lot! good waves... and as we say it in vasque language: UHIN EDERRAK!

vasque? ura where is euskadi? it sounds like cold eastern europe turned communist by russia.

about being depressed.. right now in honolulu its 305 am. i took a nap and cant sleep. i have school at 8 in the morning. ill be a zombie on coffee, but that doesnt matter, i dont know what im going to school for anyway. ill end up working at a bookstore because im to passive for anything else.

i dont get any satisfaction from being around friends. usually i just feel awkward. i dont see how people can spend their time going out clubbing and get satisfaction from it. id rather read a book.maybe draw some.
girlfriends never helped, since i start thinking of them as a best friend and they cheat on me or figure out how strange i am and leave. i feel like the only people i can relate to are the 5 year olds at work.

but being sad and selfish is comforting like the ocean.

yea, I felt a bit depressed today when I was going out to dinner. we were goin to this place out west of us, out in the country, basically where I spent all my weekends growin up, learnin to shoot, hunt, fish, basically what I love other than surfing. well, we went out there, its disgusting. all my precious country developed. really pissed me off, i really need a couple of days in the woods now.

but there are worse things out there. im content. i guess

i know what ya mean i grew up on Uist one of the outer hebredies in scotland, and when i went back this summer it was full of tourists that just had no respect for the locals ...and my grandparents who live up there had there land taken away and is now being developed into a hotel.

its such a shame becuase it was such an unspoilt place

ive got a '69 without it- or a leash at all.

I say that you take it off, patch up the hole, and put a loop on.
