face hurts.&lt;/i&gt; I just want to pull at my cheeks till they split in two. Now it
all hurts . . . No wait.. . . no I'm numb. I can't feel anything,&amp;nbsp; I can't fucking feel my big toe. wiggle bitch, wiggle.&amp;nbsp; it’s happy
and I just wander off to sleep and my thoughts drizzle away into dream land. &lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;i style=""&gt;Splat,&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;i style=""&gt;SPLAT.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;i style=""&gt;SPLAT&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;,
My brain is mush, &lt;i style=""&gt;THAT FUCKING BEEP.&lt;/i&gt; &lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;i style=""&gt;BEEP
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;There it goes again. I was fucking. Godamnit, I
was fucking. &lt;i style=""&gt;STOP BEEPING&lt;/i&gt;. I'm in
twilight, for a second all is restful and then my conscious starts to gather
itself and suddenly everything starts to flood back in. I just wanted bliss,
fuck you that’s all I wanted; Bliss and Numbing. Let me be immune if I can't be
happy. Momentary diversions; that's all I ask. Back to rest. &lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;i style=""&gt;BEEP
BEEP BEEP&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;. &lt;i style=""&gt;Oh fuck its Christmas.&lt;/i&gt;
&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 22pt;"&gt;FUCK .

To be endlessly embroiled in a subconscious battle of tug-and war; both sides pulling with equal, never failing candor.&lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/SPAN&gt;As you might have guessed by now, I myself have been a prima example of such a basket case – for quite some time now I might add. But honestly, assuming that you yourself are not going through such an internal crisis, living in this bipolar paradigm: a ceaseless battle of ying and yang; well, merely trying to exist and carry on the appearance of sanity, becomes quite a tedious obstacle. Having to constantly check yourself while engaged in social situations, and furthermore –even worse—systematically denying yourself of the cure, the cure which you have known all along in one convoluted way or the other, you instead prance around convincing yourself that you are in fact sane, that you are in fact living the life you set out to [or maybe the life THEY set out of you]. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;When will this charade end? God knows? Hopefully before your inevitable midlife crisis, while you still have youth on your side, you pray. Will they accept you after the inevitable truth comes out? Will &lt;B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;you &lt;/B&gt;accept you? As if you ever truly approved of yourself from the get-go. You sit talking your way out circles, sometimes talking yourself in circles. Projecting your conversation, mannerisms, behavior as an inflatable life jacket, cushioning all your weak spots. However, you falter sometimes –more times than safe, more times than they will allow. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;Its on the back of everyone’s mind, they know it, you know it. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 18pt"&gt;Denial.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/B&gt; [both parties included]&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 18pt"&gt;Alienation.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/B&gt; [again, both parties included]&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 18pt"&gt;Depravation&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/B&gt; [no, just you this time]&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 20pt"&gt;Final Verdict? : &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 28pt"&gt;PATHETIC&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 28pt"&gt; &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 20pt"&gt;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 8pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: inter-ideograph; MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt; TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;By the way, there’s still that orphan in &lt;?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /&gt;Africa who is probably dying of the AIDS his hooker mom bestowed upon him, I wonder what he would say?

Speaking every word that sloppily crept to my tongue, becoming an utter nuisance to everyone around me. Perhaps it was due to the anxiety which had afflicted me at the time. But no, some problems just aren’t that simple. This one was a seed, a &lt;I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal"&gt;deep-rooted&lt;/I&gt; seed. Am I crazy? No. I am . . . Never mind, forget it. This isn’t the time. But who knows if there will ever be an appropriate enough occasion for it&lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/SPAN&gt;to reveal&lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/SPAN&gt;itself. They half-know. They’ve always known. But of course they will live in denial for as long as possible, of course I will live in denial as long as possible. . . Forget it. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;College is supposed to be the time of your life. The wonder years. The 4 years where time flies by and you laugh without a care in the world. I want that, so bad. And to some extent I have that . . . to some extent . . . some extent . . . isn’t enough.&lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/SPAN&gt;And the sad realization is, I don’t know how to attain it. I don’t even know me. I think I do. But&lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/SPAN&gt;I surprise myself, o so much. And no, not in a good way. I have no control over myself. I am a creature of impulse.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;And the more time goes on, the more I give into the being I created. The more I act in a manner to please others, but never to satisfy myself. &lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;Myself? I don’t even know who that is referring to these days. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;But being back at home . . .&amp;nbsp;, &amp;nbsp;despite the layers of artificiality I have cloaked myself with, I felt loved. I felt like I belonged. I have a home, a family,&lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/SPAN&gt;friends . . . who all treasure me; who would mourn me if I were to die at this very moment. And to me, that means something. That gives me a reason to deal with my plagues; it gives me a reason to move forward, to work hard, to succeed. And at this very moment, that’s all that matters. &lt;/P&gt;</description><comments>http://www.xanga.com/its_a_plastic_life/557935138/item.html#firstcomment</comments></item><item><title>Sunday, June 04, 2006</title><link>http://www.xanga.com/its_a_plastic_life/492957308/item.html</link><guid>http://www.xanga.com/its_a_plastic_life/492957308/item.html</guid><pubDate>Sun, 04 Jun 2006 11:30:08 GMT</pubDate><description>&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 28pt"&gt;And so it will be.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/B&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;It’s that confusion that remains with us at all times—Life just seems out of focus: always blurry, always in the wrong perspective, never the right frame. You have long forgotten what it feels like to be at ease in a large group. A genuine smile; a hearty laugh, a heart-felt goodbye; -- these are all things that no longer seem to occur. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;That feeling of permanent nausea never leaves. Neither do those incessant reminders in the back of your head of how inadequate you are. Everyone is judging you. They may laugh and play along on the outside, but it’s all a façade. Inside they pity you, call you names. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal"&gt;They feel you don’t belong. You feel you don’t belong. But nobody acts. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;Instead this underlying current follows you your entire life. Never enough to jump off a bridge, but just enough to slowly take away more and more from you. You honestly believe you are worthless, you try not to listen. But it’s true. &lt;B style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal"&gt;&lt;I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal"&gt;YOU ARE A GREEDY PIECE OF SHIT.&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/B&gt; You don’t deserve any of the wealth that’s handed to you.&lt;SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/SPAN&gt;You are a leech, a parasite, who feeds off of those around you. You no longer realize whether you are a sadist or masochist—both are equally applicable. &lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;There are times you’ve tried to succeed-- those few occasions where, either by dumb luck or that rare glimpse of selfwill, you won. In fact you believe you have all the potential in the world. You probably do. But you will never attain any of it, you fear your own self being successful, you fear finally being happy. In some sad way, you find comfort in being miserable.&lt;I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal"&gt; It’s all you know. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;And so it will be. You will never escape that familiar graininess; there will always be that silent reminder whispering your demise a thousand times over. &lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"&gt;&lt;I style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal"&gt;You will exist, but never live. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
