Rebel without a cause

"I wish I was a punk rocker, with flowers in my hair."

As much as I loathe that song, those lyrics ring true. Rebellion is part of growing up, and our generation has nothing to rebel against. No cause to fight for.

Parents have become laid back and understanding, the music industry has turned politically driven music into a cash cow, consumerism has everyone content to sit at home and play with their gadgets (myself included, I write this very post from my favorite gadget (and it's American spellcheck is grinding my gears)).

Now I'm not saying I think we should all be out tipping cars and throwing molotovs, but having something to protest unites people better than having something to celebrate. And it makes life so much more interesting. You can live your life obedient and well behaved, but what stories are you going to tell your kids? Or your grandkids.

So with nothing to rise up and fight against we must take it upon ourselves to make a statement. Go out fuck shit up. Colour in the barcodes on all the food in IGA. Run a pirate flag up the flagpole at your uni. Go to work drunk. Paint your own lines in the nearest carpark.

As for me, I've found street art. Watch out for my stencils around town.

I'm always looking for new ways to tell you I love you. This is the latest.

Long time no speak

It's been a while since I've posted anything, but I haven't really much to say. Ok that's a lie, I've just been too lazy to say it. But I will rectify this soon.

Also, I've finally found a good blogging app for my phone so expect a lit of random posts that pop into my head while I'm out and about.

"Do you feel cold and lost in desperation?

You build up hope but failure's all you've known.

Remember all the sadness and frustration,

and let it go. Let it go."

The Royal We

"When it's all over and you open your eyes, you'll see the world turned on it's side, and you'll be lying by a note on the floor signed;

The Royal We"

I no longer want to be at uni. The quote "to study something is to kill it" seems apt at this stage. I don't know if it's just the units I have this semester, or the other crap that's going on in my head or my body building up a resistance to my meds but I no longer have any motivation towards my course. My passion for design is untouched, I just find myself wishing I could fast forward to after I've got my degree. Or get a job without one.

I get no enjoyment out of anything I have to do for my assignments, and they all seem like a waste of time. I want to be doing design for my own enjoyment or for financial gain, not for marks and results.

I still see the value in my course, I just think that I've learnt enough now that I'd benefit more by learning in a work environment. I looked at TAFE options to see if that would be any better, and I think it would, but it would also mean another 3 years of study before I could start work proper.

I'll stick it out for the rest of the semester, obviously, but I think I'm going to have to do a lot of soul searching during the holidays.
