Boldly going where thousands have gone before.

  Hi, my name is Michael, basically the most boring name in the world. Weather I am boring as a person is really up to you, and I think I used the wrong "weather" in the previous statement. I'm like you, I'm like 90% of the people on the internet. I think I'm unique and abnormal, just like everyone else. I'm not sure if I am relieved or saddened by that fact as I am unsure if it makes conformity a myth or Individuality one. It is pretty easy to stand out in a crowd full of people wearing blue jeans and a red tee-shirt, but extremely hard to stand out in a crowd where everyone is completely and utterly unique.

  This morning I woke up feeling the worst feeling I have ever felt in my entire short, sad excuse for a life. I felt as if I had been doing the same old thing forever, and I will keep doing the same old thing forever. I felt like I wanted to wake up every day wondering "what will I do today". I felt like if I kept doing the same old thing I would just fade away into the background. I felt more afraid of this prospect than death.

  You know, they say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting results. In short; If you do what you've always done you'll get where you've always got. So, change it up a little, easier said than done. I don't think switching breakfast cereals is gonna give me the thrill I need to pull my self out of bed in the morning. No, I need something big, a change of scenery. That where the problems happen. You can't just walk out of your office tomorrow, yelling "fuck you" to your boss all the while and board the midnight train going anywhere. Although it is a romantic prospect, we gotta be more realistic here, just like I can't walk out of the middle of math class flashing middle fingers as I go. Sure, I could easily skip, but considering my father is also a teacher at my school, its just not gonna happen. Even if I could, I would rather stay in school and get an education in case my midnight train plan fails.

  You might be thinking "what an asshole, this kid thinks hes got it tough. And he keeps complaining about some shit he thinks he can't change," and you're right, I'm complaining over some stupid thing none cares about, and thats just what I do. I'm pretty depressed today so thats why I'm so pessimistic (I mean more pessimistic than usual, if you get to know me, you'll find I'm quite the winy bitch). When I feel this way, I usually find comfort in the thought that eventually giddy, shallow high school girls will some day evolve into actual human beings that will (hopefully) Appreciate Talent, depth and intellect instead of abs and well swept Beiber-bangs (holy crap, he should totally trademark that).

totally unique, one of a kind dude Michael Kopp, out.


  (just a side note, I also learned a very valuable lesson today; shallow high school girls are bitches. generally speaking.)
