My life has officially become Hasbro-fied. I'm the Randy pewter in a reality edition of monopoly. Other than the initial decision to be "Randy" I feel my life has a taken a never ending journey of dice rolls and random community chest cards telling me i owe a billion unpaid parking tickets, have exams that succeed only in testing my sanity, and an empty shell of meaningful relationships. I'm only 21 years old, yet i feel like the end of the monopoly game where you have no property and your only hopes are to dodge everyone's gauntlet of hotels just to reach a little slice of heaven labeled "GO", catch your breath and savor the 200 dollars, just to make another round through hell.


I'm frustrated. If life was a succulent onion or mushroom I'd slap chop the shit out of it. honestly, just put my back into it. that way maybe i could figure it out in pieces rather than its rubics cube entirety.

I wish i could sit down with a few people who could give me perspective. Paul Mccartney, Bruce Lee, Billy Mays, Jesus, and Kathrine Heigl. Thats not the order i'd take them of course, I don't think Jesus would appreciate coming after Billy Mays and I wouldn't really listen to what Kathrine Heigl had to say I'd just stare at her face.. but perspective is what i really want right now. I want someone to give me a good verbal slap to the face (or real slap to the face if it'll do the job) and remind me that people all over the world have it harder than i do, that my life is gonna get harder than it is now, that i don't wanna sit around and be "that guy", and that life is about figuring out yourself, loving people, loving God, and loving life.

As demented minds of matt stone and trey parker once put it via their genius eric cartman: "Life's too short not to do whatever the hell you want to, when you want to."
