(no subject)

I'm doing a half-hearted cleaning of the office (there are piles of crap in the closet. Not all of it is mine, thankfully), listening to some really poppy, funny music. And I came across a little notebook I used to doodle in during my last semester of high school. Holy shit, was I ever an angry teenager!

I remember being really unhappy all through high school, and just counting down the days until I graduated and I could escape, begin university, and really begin my life. But flipping through that book, it's full of quotes from really angry songs that I used to think were the songs that described my life or the people around me. There's a few songs in there that I can't identify now, and I'd like to find them again, because now I'm a fan of (some kinds of) angry music for different reasons.

It also made me realize that I haven't just doodled, or scribbled random things, or written out really touching song lyrics in a really long time. I have all these blank notebooks that I'm not using (but I totally needed them for some really great creative purpose, I'm sure!) and I should start using them. And then maybe something will actually come of it.
