the hippies are shorn and flower power has wilted, punks have rebelled and anarchy ain't all that new, psychedelia is forsaken for disco which is now helping aunties strut their stuff. Man there ain't no proper idealogy you can throw yourself into, no random communes that you could be brainwashed into...all we have are bombs, violence and more dead people. The Mods have packed their sharp suits and rode off into the sunset with their scooters and then i was born. 2 years into my birth came Nirvana and then what? The rock scene is so dead, the quest for personal fulfilment is sacrificed for literal monetary advancement and the teenagers of today are a buncha mtv glazed-eyed sheep waiting to be herded. I mean, we start decaying mentally when we are teenagers? where's fighting for your rights and making yourself heard? If you like Band A and people say they suck, do you join in loving Band B and diss Band A? All just to prove you 'belong'? Know what you want and and stick to it because no one truly understands yourself like you do. Oh wait, if you are hopelessly disillusioned with your life then i suppose its better going with the crowd and being emo, its easier and more 'acceptable'.
I suppose i am rambling off a huge chunk of rather indeterminable thoughts but its my blog and i find it therepeautic to rant and clear my mind of random floating thoughts and i think the point of this post would be..erm...let me think.. oh yeah i suppose the point of this entry would be to break out of the mould and be yourself, don't change yourself for stuff you don't want because i had just too many friends doing that and when i look at what they were and what they became, i just felt sad. Why?
