Skype/fazbox are irl-people things for me, no offence like. It'd just feel weird having gaia people on it.

hellosara So you're so bored and lonely that you're getting drunk by yourself and posting on gaia for company?
What's up? Yeah... pretty much. Found out my girlfriend of three years has been a lying whore for like the last two and a half years. She was cheating on me again... I didnt know it at the time, but she broke up with me to be with him. She was going to college in a different state and couldn't stand not having a guy touch her for a week. So we broke up the other month and it still gets to me some times. Really depressing, and i've recently found out that all my friends aren't really anyone i want to be friends with at all. and i'm probably going to fail some classes because I missed tests worth 30% of my total grade while all that stuff was going on, i didn't realize it. Feels really bad, man.

Yeah, I'm not burning any bridges... I just wish I had good friends or something. Three of my really good friends have been really shitty to me lately, I've totally stopped talking to one of them. The only good friend that I still have, I feel like i bother her a lot by talking to her but I get anxiety from being alone... So I try to find something else to do or other people to talk to but it's kinda hard.
I actually used to hate being around people until this happened.

People like being talked to. It makes them feel wanted.
I am one of those people who gives a lot of unsolicited advice so I shall try to refrain from doing so.
In other news, I'm alright. Weather's been gorge for ages, except now we're getting smog in the cities. I spent Thursday in Hyde Park with some of my favouritest people ever:
and yesterday playing with photographer friends:
Soz, I like posting pictures, as you can see.
I don't go on the internet a whole lot when I'm not at uni. My little doodleblog has been so neglected.
So, anything looking up now? Long weekend for Easter, if nowt else. (:

Those are super awesome! They look sorta like a Holga. I really want one of those... and I really don't mind advice haha.
Things are getting better, I've kind of accepted my friends suck and stop hanging out with them. My brothers going to be hanging out here for the weekend and I'm just feeling a bit better.
You should really post more vaginasnake drawings. And more photos.

Hah, I pretty much haven't done any vaginasnake drawings (or any other sort of drawings) since like a fortnight ago, and barely any practice. It appears I forget a lot of the things I'm normally interested in when I come home from uni.
Holga's a toy camera, right? I'm not good on photography. Those ones are kinda cool to look at though, because she was doing strange things with the film so there was one picture in blue tones and one in oranges layered over each other.
Are you sure it's a good idea to decide not to hang out with your friends any more when you're feeling super-lonely anyways? I mean, it's all well and good to decide you're gonna get new friends, but what about the in-between time?
What's your brother like?

What's your brother like? Yeah Holga's are really crappy chinese cameras, they're known for messing up the picture like that... where you get all these weird oranges and blues, and the shading is real weird. It's hard to explain, I just found out about it a while ago and now want one. Yeah... Out of the two friends who I actually enjoy being around, one just hangs out with me whenever she needs me to fix something, or needs gas, or wants to make her boyfriend jealous, or help with homework... I mean I enjoy hanging being around her a lot and don't mind helping her with stuff, but it's bullshit that she only wants to be friends when I need something... The other friend is an ex girlfriend who just hangs out with me to try and get me to date her again and it's like out entire friendship is based around sex or her wanting to reenact her high school memories basically... I don't know, I think its kind of shitty friendships, which never really bothered me since I didn't see them or have any kind of needs of my own until recently. I think i'd be alright without them. I still have one really good friend, the one I said I feel like I bother? She recently asked if I wanted to hang out with her and meet some of her friends too... Makes me feel good. Also yes, all my friends are girls. I have no clue why. I hate that, it's like when you finally have all this free time and the ability to do stuff, you just spend all your time on tumblr, or just like laying down in bed thinking "Hm this is nice". Or at least I do that, anyway. Hahaha vaginasnakes... I've been wanting to do drawings like this kind of stuff. I think i'd be good at it, I want to start doing some kind of drawings again. So anything new and cool with you? I keep talking about myself still, and don't know a ton about you.

Hahh, I just base my friendships on whether or not I enjoy their company. Too much fuss to wonder about whether it's cupboard love or whatever. Still, if that's what you wanna do.
The greater proportion of my friends are girls, too, but I mainly blame that on going to an all-girls high school, then going on to study languages and music. Not gonna meet a whole lot of guys through my academic life. (It's funny, though: even at uni age, you still find some girls who are weird around guys after going to girls schools. It's like: what? Legally an adult and still not used to male company? Idgi.)
I like the scribbly arts. :) I've always thought images have more character when they're loose and free, although it sometimes makes me feel like I'm not doing it properly, like. Anyways, you should go for it. I'm planning on doing some painting today, I owe about a thousand people pictures, but I doubt I'll do those ones. Can't believe I haven't drawn anything 'proper' in a fortnight: whenever I pick up a pencil now I just sketch like mad because of the pent up ideas or whatever. I really enjoy drawing, it's a shame that it's not a pastime that can be shared like music can.
Man I talk a lot. Nothing new and cool in the world of me, just lots of chilling in the sunshine. That's the real problem with my productivity: I'm surrounded by friends and family I haven't seen for ages, with plenty of student loan left to spend and gorgeous weather - all I want to do is spend time pissing about with everyone. I'll regret it in a week if I still haven't got all my music for accompanying people steady, though.
My sister's like 14 and is like 10x as advanced at music - playing and theory, than I was at her age. I'm really impressed, though I suppose it's helped her to have someone encouraging her to practice and explaining things to her (lord, the piano teacher I used to go to and she still does is an absolute nightmare, especially at teaching theory. But never mind).
I can't really remember what I was talking about, I think I'm just narrating my life to you. I don't know a whole lot about you either. Five facts? biggrin

Yeahhh that's why I was still friends with them... It's like I enjoy being around them, but it's bullshit if they don't want to be around me just because they enjoy it or something.
My friends are mostly girls and I don't know why... Most of the guys I meet are kind of assholes or bros, I seem to meet a lot more women that have similar interests for some reason. Aside from like engineering or physics and science... Very few women seem interested in that. Theres a ton of guys like that. It's amazing how many guys are in their 20's and never even talked to a woman. My friend said she was talking to this guy a few days ago. She met him online on like a social "find people with similar interests" forum. He ended up saying that he was 27 or 28 or something. He was a virgin, never been kissed and never intimately talked to a woman in real life... I don't know, I just couldn't imagine.
Yeah! I totally know what you mean... I used to do a lot of super clean looking still life stuff of like pots of flowers and other generic stuff like that, but the stuff I really like is way more sketchy like that. It seems more passionate or something.. I really like "passionate" art in any form, anything that looks so full of life, or so lacking and devoid of life... like HR Giger. I don't know, I like all kinds of art I guess, really. I know what you mean... drawing doesn't have a co-op mode haha.
Jeez thats really cool about your sister, I wish I started younger like that and had some one to really help me. I'm going to do that for my brothers kids, his daughter wants to learn to play guitar but she's still kind of young and super tiny. This weekend I came out of the shower to find her messing with my guitar, which I wasn't too happy about... but it's good that she's interested in it. She also wants to do weight lifting, which is awesome.. She's really good at sports and stuff, she's really strong for being a six year old girl, she'll do chin ups for like hours, hopefully I can get her into powerlifting too haha. So what all kind of stuff are you into, aside from music and art?
Haha five facts? Sureeee... lets see...
1. I can deadlift almost 600lbs
2. I almost went to mortuary school
3. Frank Zappa is probably my all time favorite musician in general
4. My favorite animals are either cephelapods or bats
5. My favorite thing in the world is laying in bed with some one and listening to vinyl while talking
6. I'm 1.96m tall
I added a sixth one because I just thought that it might be something you wouldn't have thought haha. How about you?

6'5"? Hahah, you're giant. I'm only 5'2" and have far too many friends and acquaintances over the 6' mark. It's most troublesome when they're girls, though, because that generally means their boob level is at exactly my eye level. :
Most guys I meet nowadays are weird. Idk why. Well, I guess the ones that study French are generally fairly balanced and sociable, and musicians is a guaranteed weird... but idk about the rest. Maybe I just attract strange people. Still, crazy about that guy you were talking about. I guess I can understand still being a virgin in your late twenties - same as people who only start to date properly in their early twenties - but never even an intimate conversation with someone of the opposite sex? I can't understand people who make that much of a division in their minds.
I've always naturally drawn very loose and sketchy, people used to complain that I was 'just scribbling' and then at some point they stopped and started complimenting me on my 'style'. I dunno, I guess it's best to go with the flow and do what you naturally do - wish it worked the same in music. Too much theory's brainwashed me into gravitating towards chords I and V and VI and IV, so much so that it's often a conscious effort to stay away.
It is cool about my sister, I'm kinda jealous, really. I guess she started earlier than me, but, and it sounds a bit arrogant to say it, I think that having someone more experienced to help/encourage/motivate indirectly by being a living example that practice works around constantly must have helped a lot. She's teaching herself perfect pitch and she's 14 years old. I distinctly remember that year being the year I learnt what 'flat' meant (as in, "you're singing flat"). A lot of what she's learning just didn't occur to me at the time, like chord theory. But then again, I suppose at that age I'd spent a long time teaching myself to play by ear, and improvise, which is something she doesn't really do. Maybe it's just a different range of skills. Still, she's a much better player than I ever was at that age, and has a far better grasp of how music works. It is pretty cool.
Hahah, your brother's daughter sounds cute. We still have a little half-sized classical guitar lying around the house from when my dad realised it probably wasn't a good idea to have tiny!me messing around with his guitars. It's a shame he was never a great teacher, I do remember asking my dad to teach me guitar when I was little, but he never had quite the required amount of patience. "So what note comes after G?" "H?" -my dad gets fed up and walks away on toddler me-. Never mind, eh.
I find the idea of a six-year-old girl lifting weights kind of hilarious. Probs shouldn't, I guess. She sounds like a determined little kid, though, I bet she'll be a good learner.
As for what I'm into... I find that between music and art and uni a social life I don't have much time for other stuff, honestly. That's basically the bulk of my life. Hahaha though anything else I think of hobbywise makes me sound very domestic and girly: I like to cook, sew, make jewellery, grow plants. I write from time to time, too. I'm typing loads again, aren't I?
Anyway. I always say things like "five facts!" to make people talk about themselves and then realise I can't think of anything to say in return. Let's think...
1. I have to spend the entire next academic year studying in France. I'm scared.
2. I can say 'I am a turnip' in a number of random languages.
3. I dye my hair pink because it makes me feel so much happier about life in general. Idk why.
4. I love bats too! And rats. My sister and I are buying some rats tomorrow.
5. I still get drunk on two drinks at the age of 21. :
Also: mortuary school?? o_o
