The York of New

Posted by StarF68 - July 13th, 2008


So for the past week or so (Well, almost a week now) I've been in New York, visiting one of my best friends who moved here last summer. Of course, he lives in the suburbs of NY (In a place called Hamburg), so really, it's just like MN. I'm staying until July 26th.

Alright, so it's not just like MN, and so far it's been a lot of fun! :D

We've went to some amusement park, Dave & Busters (Where I kicked ass at the arcade games, getting a total of around 2000 tickets), walked around and shit, and just generally have had fun. We also rented the game Army of Two a couple of days ago, and just finished beating it tonight. Pretty fun game, but could definately use some more gameplay, it was really short. Reminded me a lot of Gears of War.

Anyway I don't have much longer to type, going to go play some other games with my friend, so I'll wrap this up quick. As far as the last posts go, to anyone who may be paying attention (I suspect that this is nobody, but this has become something of my own little personal "relationship blog," lulz!), the bitchy girl still wont talk to me. I tried to make peace with her, but to no avail, and finally said fuck it, if she's going to be a bitch then I'll just let her.

As for the new girl, I asked her out and she said yes, but we still haven't been able to go on a date due to busy schedules (she works a lot), and now I'm in NY until the 26th. Bad timing. I'm sorta getting the feeling she doesn't like me as much as she let on before anymore, or something like that. But whatever, I'll just have to see how that goes.

Oh, and I've been talking to my first ex a lot too recently, who is still really awsome and I could still see being with... Interesting, interesting... lol.

My life feels like a boring soap opera. Well, boring to watch anyway, I'm having lots of fun! :D

And finally, I'll cap this entry off with a poem I wrote the other day. It still has some work to be done, a few places to fix, but I like it anyway. Comments are always appreciated!

Casino

Coin flip, dice roll, always a game of chance
I wish physically I'd stick to my mental stance
This game is stupid, it's rigged, you can't win
You've lost your prophets as soon as you begin
Fifty-fifty, good odds, if you're thinking optimistic
But each side is equal and dangerous if you're being realistic
On one side is prosperity, on the other despair
And that coin of the future could land anywhere
Cause if you lose, you're a goner, then hope is all lost
And if you win, you'll get cocky, and to hell with the cost
You go double-or-nothing, cause your luck seems so high
You just won the bet of fifty-fifty, so of course you would try
To scramble the odds just to make some more money
And when you're watching the die roll, it seems kinda funny
How suddenly the odds are stacked; but not in your favor
And sometimes I love the taste of defeat; my favorite flavor
But not in this game, so I'm praying with this chance; one-in-six
That it might just land on my number, so the problems it'll fix
I'm gambling with life, I never was one to bet
And when I lose every side I'll try not to regret
That it was all my fault, backpeddled a little to far
Walked just a couple steps much, got smashed by the car
Didn't pay just enough attention, got bit in the ass
Stranded in the wilderness cause I ran out of gas
The luck has run dry, but it was never really there
And in the end it doesn't matter, there's no reason to care
Cause life is a casino, and I walked in with my cash
Sat down at the table of love and started acting rash
Made some winnings at first, started feeling the might
Now my state of affairs is such a pitiful sight
I placed a large bet, all my chips on the table
All-or-nothing it seems, and the odds are unstable
So I'm closing my eyes and hoping for the best
Leave irrationality to me, cause common sense is for the rest
I never really liked gambling, seemed too risky for me
And so it's ironic I'd be standing here waiting to see
The result of the coin flip, the dice roll, the games of chance
I wish physically I could just stick with my mental stance

EDIT: Omg for some reason I had it twice, and I didn't even notice. Shit! Fixed it. :O XD

Lol. YAY! See how quickly your life can turn around. One bad thing thing happens, but that just opens the door for a whole lot more opportunities and positive things to happen.
Yup! Agree on the bad timing thing.

The future seems to be confusing. I'd go into detail, but there's too much detail, so I'll spare you lol. I just hope it all ends up well for me.

To summarize the detail: my ex wants to be with me, I still like her, but she lives in a different state, and there's no way I'm dealing with another long distance relationship lol.

It's confusing and sucks, but oh well.

Once again: Great Poem!

Thanks so much! ^_^

If your serious about that new girl you asked out, you'll tell your ex to stay out of your life. Or (in a nice way) tell her that you're seeing someone else. But if you still like her you shouldn't have asked that other girl out just yet.
Man, I'd hate to be in your situation lol.

Yeah it's confusing. The thing is I wasn't really thinking about my ex when I asked the new girl out, cause I hadn't really been talking to her. Ever since I went to NY I've been texting her a lot, and we've just been talking a lot, which made me realize some things, which makes the entire situation kind of a mess lol.

Confusion confusion confusion, what to do. XD

So what are you going to do? This is just my opinion, ok? I think that you should stay with the new girl a bit longer. Its still the early days for you and her and maybe you'll end up falling for each other. But you better make up your mind quick, otherwise when (and if) you do break up with her, this situation may get a whole lot messier.

Anyway, keep talking to your ex. You know her a lot already and you could do with some comfort.

The thing is I don't know how much the new girl likes me. In fact I get the feeling she doesn't really like me all that much. I haven't talked to her once since I've been here, that's an entire week. I've tried to contact her, but she never answers. I even said for her to text me sometime when she's not busy, but still nothing.

I don't know. I should probably give it some time though and see what develops.

Well yeah, don't give up on the new girl yet. Maybe she's still shy around you but she should settle down soon. The more you get to know her, the more she'll tell you, but you have to show her, somehow, that you want to know more about her. Anyway yeah see what happens and remember: neverEVER hurt a girl without a real reason behind it cause the only thing a girl wants to know is why? why? why?

I would never want to. I know the pain of being hurt in the way of a relationship, as I've been cheated on before and blah blah blah. lol. I'd never want to do anything to hurt anyone else.

Hopefully everything will turn out good for everyone. ^_^

Thanks for the advice and whatnot! You're awsome! :3

Whoa

Woah!!!

Thats great!

Thanks! ^_^
