A Real Entry

Good day to all. Sorry I haven’t written in awhile. All I’ve been posting is things on the war. I guess everyone knows my stand on things. I won’t really discuss it now, cause then it would just be another entry on the war. Plus, the news reports that I post I pick pretty carefully. They most closely show my views on the war. Anyway, not much is honestly going on. I’m here at school right now. Things are going alright for the most part. Classes are going well. I had a very interesting speaker in anthropology today. She’s blind. Her talk was on the classes she teaches to blind girls on how to function better in society. I found it very interesting, put forth very well, and she seemed pretty passionate about her cause. I was listening to her talking about some of the things she had to get used to, cause she wasn’t born blind. After class I was remembering the no sight training I did in martial arts. I didn’t get to go too far into the training, but it is an interesting experience. We all depend so much on our sight for balance, that it’s an interesting experience being deprived of sight and trying to go through the forms you had down so well. How to learn to become more aware of the passage of air, the sounds around you, things like that. I want to post some more on the lecture, but I want to get some facts straight, so I got contact info from her and I’ll speak to her later. So, in the future I’ll post something more in depth. I’m going to be taking some classes this summer. Hopefully I’ll be able to find a job too. There’s one that opened here at the university. I applied for it. I should hear something back in the next two weeks. Hope for me to get the job. I’m still dealing with personal issues as best I can. Mostly, it’s just that I get lonely. There’s really only one friend I hang out with anymore and even then I hardly see him. He’s usually busy with school or something else. And I miss having someone here. I miss holding someone and being held. I miss feeling loved. I miss alot of things, but it really doesn’t help my situation much. There’s not really much else to say I guess. Take care all.

It is hard to be in school and not have someone to care about. It can get lonely. We all need to feel special in one way or the other. Nice entry. RYN: At Amazon Warrior, I just wanted to say that I am almost 55 yrs and I believe that everyone has the right to state their opinion. I am a poet so I just responded to her poem. BTW, my diary is not privatized but just to the public.

It is available to FOD and OD. It is a new diary, one of two I have up there, which the other is private. I used to write at FOD but got deleted in one of the crashes sometime back. I read your latest entry and it is good that you post what you feel.
