techno sucks

Ive come to the realisation that technology really does suck.. ironic- im sitting here writing on my laptop about how i hate technology.  but its almost like it has come to a point where it is robing us of any real sort of relationship that we might have with people, that our ways of communicating have turned into a “like” on facebook or following someone’s tweets or stalking a person’s profile on the net instead of actually meeting them b4 u decide to judge them. 

all the hype of the iphone i just dont get.  oh wow it had like 100 000 apps to do anything u want… now you can be so lazy that u dont even have to get up to do something… ITS ALL THERE ON UR PHONE JUST PRESS A BUTTON WIT UR FINGER. 

no wonder gen Y is becoming known as the laziest generation, that we cant hold down jobs, that we dont know how to work hard, that employers dont even want to hire a gen y to work for them.. its not that hard to see why… DUH!  cos looking up a street or road in the actual st directory is such a hard task- we need a computer voice gps telling us “turn right”.  they might as well say “TURN RIGHT YOU LAZY TWIT WHO CAN’T READ A ROADMAP”. 

now  i dont have an iphone, and i dont particularly want one either.  everyone says that u dont know how good it is until u have one but frankly im quite happy and grateful for a phone that jus works to call and txt ppl.  id rather spend 10 mins talking to someone on the phone or in real life then spend 30 mins talking to someone on facebook chat.  its like talking to someone with a blank wall for a face…  how exciting.  have we completely lost our senses and become like robots, attatched to these things called computers…. still, im finding it very ironic that im on one.  genY wat are we doing? sacrificing real people and real relationships for a screen???   yet i find myself with a facebook account and twitter and myspace and a website and blog.  LOL!  all this technology it is doing my head in…

IM BACK!

1st entry for 2010.  1 and a half months into a new year and its taken me this long to write again.  for awhile i lost my mojo for writing, my mind blank like a white wall…or beige rather.  but im back now and writing, painting, making art again. 

Last year presented itself with so many struggles.  its hard to see past a storm when ur in one.  but the storm did calm and life is good. not always peachy, actually very hard, but good all the same.  living in a new house, with new housemates (who are amazing), in the heart of Perth our glorious city.  i know what i want and im not holding back for anyone. 

Last year i learnt something.  unless YOU really want something, then it wont happen.  i wasted 6 months of my life and only added to the unending list of issues that i already have, but it wasnt until i got a giant wake up call and realised myself that life doesnt have to be this way.  Life doesnt have to be crap.  it doesnt have to be ruled by darkness.  freedom has come and its fighting its way thru to the finish line. 

i write to you now 14 days sober.  thats right, i quit drinking cos it was ruining my life.  it ruins lots of lives i just dont think that other ppl realise it.  getting off the grog and onto God has turned my world around.  my world that was once so small and insignificant, full of despair and depression, has been flipped upside down and dumped into the trash.  what lies ahead now is a huge world of possibilities.  God opened my eyes to see the things that i was doing was only damaging myself and the ppl who care. 

want to shout from the rooftops that JESUS SAVES!!!!!!!!!!  he saved me and he can save u too.  Blessed are those who are poor in spirit, for they will see God.    sometimes you’ve gotta hit rock bottom before you can start climbing your way to the top. 

im excited to see what 2010 brings… what adventure and people and things lie ahead. i am excited about life!  yes it will have its trials… it already has… but what doesnt kill you makes you stronger. 

glad to be back people.

stay tuned.
