My So-Called Life
June 8th, 2007 27 Comments»Wordcount: 207
So last night we watched Texas Chainsaw Massacre - The Beginning. It was really gory, and I guess kind of interesting because I always liked the original TCM, so yeah.. I guess I liked it somewhat. I also have this movie “Norbit” with Eddie Murphy to watch. I watched part of it, and it seems funny in a stupid kind of way. So I guess we’ll see. It kinda reminded me of an odd version off the nutty professor.. where Eddie Murphy is that fat guy who concocts some kind of potion that makes him skinny or whatever.
Anyways, there isn’t anything else really interesting going on in my life at the moment. Fighting with the boyfriend alot, and sleeping mostly. I am too stressed out and anxious to get anything done. I want to get a job, but the boyfriend completely against it. I’m just so BORED. I wanna DO something. I’m going to enroll in some college courses I think for fall semester. I’m not even really sure what for yet, but SOMETHING. My life is so uneventful lately it’s just pathetic. The highlight of my life lately is watching reruns of lifetime movies on cable tv. I need to find something productive to do.

I’m thinking of seeing Norbit. I like stupid-funny. lol.
Aww, that sucks that you’re not all that happy with the way your life is going at the moment and a shame that your bf is against you getting a job. You’d think he’d want you to be happy and UNbored… =/
Yeah, well I like Eddie Murphy.. his movies are always awesome, so yeah I’d definitely recommend seeing it.
And I think my boyfriend is more concerned with his own happiness than my own.
I know how it feels when it comes to being bored. I HATE being bored, i HAVE to be always on the go with just something to do with my studies and everything. Such as, during the winter months where school (for me) and there’s nothing better to do, I’d audition for drama or take up anything to keep it moving. In the summer, i need two days of soccer, one day of piano and one day of math tutoring to help me keep going. It’s fun
I can’t stand any of those Eddie Murphy movies. They just annoy me. lol
Is there any particular reason your boyfriend doesn’t want you to get a job? I can’t understand why he wouldn’t want you to get a job. Personally, when I hear something like that it makes me think that the guy is being a bit too controlling, and that’s never a good thing.
You know, I’m really not sure what it is. He tries to be controlling, but I’m not the type of person to allow someone to control me. So I guess we’ll see what happens.
Yeah, just go with it. You don’t seem like you would stand for it if it got too out of control.
Ooo… TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE. I had endless nightmares from those gory scenes… especially the part where the dude cut off his leg and he placed him on the HOOK… O___________O
Well, hopefully, you’ll fulfill your need to.. GET OUT THERE =]
Huh, I hope your bf changes his mind, it’s kinda wrong of him to order you to not get a job (wow, what a sentence x.x) Sounds like middle age thinking to me…but then again, I don’t know your bf or the circumstances under which he said that, so I’ll be quiet now xD
yeah, i could relate. like now, im so bored. We did not have work today because it’s independence day.
It is wrong. This isn’t 1950.
I’ve never seen TCM. Norbit looks rather funny, I might rent it from NetFlix. It seems like you’re just lazing around, eh? The bloody boyfriend doesn’t want you to get a job…I have no idea why that is. It’s like…opression (sp?)!
Ahh that movie looks scary! I’m such a chicken!
I’ve been feeling the same why. My boyfriend and I have been fighting lately and I’ve been so tired and hungry! Good lord. I hope you feel better soon! ♥
Yeah, I feel like there is something that I WANT or NEED and I just can’t seem to get a grasp on it. Fighting sucks.. my bf and I do it alot. I think I’ll go eat some twinkies now and watch cable tv. Maybe I’ll feel better. lol
well i hope u enjoy ur movies. and Look for a job. Working makes u feel better. I can’t imagine everyday being bored at my house with no goals whatsoever
I’m not a child… lol. As people get older their goals in life do change. I do not NEED to work, I simply WANT to. I don’t sit around my house “with no goals whatsoever”. I have already realized alot of my goals and have set forth new ones in my life that I plan to also accomplish. When you have kids though, sometimes the things you want and the things you need are no longer even close to the same thing. I am bored, and I admit that… but I did take a bit of offense to your insinuating I’m a lazy fat bum who sits around her home all day with no aspirations.
Finally someone who makes some sense in the world! Thank you, I really appreciate your words of wisdom.
I enjoyed the original TCM and absolutely rebelled against the new one. My only complaint with the original is that it is too damn short. They could have done a lot more, which I suppose was the mentality with the new one, but they didn’t do too much more in that one and it was also extremely short, to me, anyway. Odd.
Thank you. I saw the edit on your blog. Venting is normal.. and sometimes when people get upset or emotional or just plain MAD, they say and do things they don’t mean. Hope it all works out though, I mean you have invested over a year of your life into that relationship. That’s quite awhile, and worth fighting for in my opinion.
I agree with you completely. The original TCM was the very best. My biggest complaint with it was also the length. They could have done so much more with it. I think they played it out though.. with the newer ones.
Yeah I’ve noticed that.
It seems like I’m always taken for granted, but yet they always realize how good I was once they’ve broke my heart and thrown me away.
why is your bf against you working (if you don’t mind me asking)?
i saw texas chainsaw massacre- the beginning. i liked it. it was very gory. i was sooo sad when the guy with the green eyes died. he was so sexy. and then that monster stole his beautiful face and STILL looked an utter mess. shame. lol
i want to see norbit. i enjoy watching stupid funny movies!
Yeah, I don’t know if oppression is the right word, but it’s close. It’s more some kind of insecurity on his part. I guess I can understand though… or at least I TRY to understand. SIGH.
Yea, that’s men for ya.
He’s against me working because he is insecure. I don’t honestly know what he’s worried about.. I’m not an unfaithful person. I think it’s because of his indiscretions in the past, though. I guess he feels since most men can’t control themselves, then women can’t either? I just try my best to understand.
Yeah, the movie is rather gory. I didn’t have nightmares but I almost vomited.. actually started to gag at some parts in that movie. So nasty
They say the TCM is a semi true story based on actual events.. but in all honesty I think it’s just a myth . ;p
Why would your boyfriend be against you getting a job!? that’s crazy honestly if i didn’t have a job, I’d be at home, bored, frustrated, and extremely irritable you should try joining some kind of class, maybe a sports thing- being active improves your mood a lot
Thanks for your comment (and sorry for commenting on this post again, hope it’s not too bad x) Well, that sucks you aren’t sent home when it’s too hot - but on the other hand, your friend is right, we sweat quite a lot until they finally release us because it’s getting too hot in the school building. duh.
