So I'm having an issue where I really want to write but I have no idea what to write about. Nothing even remotely interesting has happened in the last what twelve hours since I last made a post, but I really want to write something.
So Krissy called me today almost right after I made the last post about her not wanting to be friends. But I think she wants to keep it a secret from Copeland, which I'm not okay with. He seemed like a nice guy that civilly protected what he had made a claim to. We sorted it out and came to terms and that was that. Krissy actually kinda messed it up by calling. However, I think there can be a mutual resolve where she and I can become friends again and him be okay with it. I genuinely just want to be friends with her. I mean I do wish we'd had a proper chance at each other but it never happened and I'm okay with the fact that it never will.
I do want to write a book but I don't think it will be about what I was going to make it. I want to write a real life book. One with a little meaning behind it than just a cool story with likable characters. I want to write a book that makes people think when they finish the last word on the last page of the last chapter, close the back cover and stare off into space questioning... something. I have no idea what though. I can't remember the title but I once read a book in high school where A cool guy who was basically fuck buddies with his chick friend, is tricked by his parents into going on a European vacation with his older nerdy brother. While there, they meet this very exotic woman who kinda shows up along their whole trip and gives them a new out look on life by spending time with them and ultimately sleeping with the both of them. Making the younger brother appreciate and commit to his fuck buddy girl and the older brother realize that he needs to live more. All in all it made me think afterwards and books don't do that often. Usually movies make contemplate existence and books just make me crave a sequel. The only thing I remember about the books appearance is that it had light blue over with what appeared to be a snowglobe on the front.
Anyway, besides the point, it was a very obscure book that I'm sure no one in the world but myself has read that honestly I wish I could read again. Another book that made me think was a new book that came out my senior year of high school so roughly 2009-2010, called "Deadline" about a kid who never thought much about doing anything outside his comfort zone. That is, until, he finds out he has a terminal illness that gives him about a year left untreated. Being the legal adult he is, he declines the treatment saying hat he'll just make it the best year ever. He goes on living his life to the fullest. Going out for football, asking out his dream girl etc. all while keeping his illness a secret from everyone. Including his parents.
We were assigned the book as one of the few we had to read for class that year. Normally we read a certain length in class and do some worksheets on it and that's it, but the story intrigued me. So I actually "borrowed" my school copy and read ahead of the class. Add another book to my list of ones to own. Moral of the story is that I want to write something with guts, enthusiasm, and charisma, that makes you think about something bigger than yourself, and I have no idea how to do that.
