Hello, today I'd to create a diary of what I imagine a depressed man might write if he had a diary. I don't know why I'm making this on teamliquid but I find myself wasting a lot of time on here so why not and this is my blog. Yup. If I have any more thoughts to add I'll probably just edit this diary entry and not make any new blog posts which is very fitting to hear. Very. It'll continue on for weeks, or maybe 2 hours if I get bored of it. This isn't meant to make sense or be coherent O.o .The thoughts in this diary of a fictional depressed man do not reflect my own thoughts and views. This is merely for fun. I removed some stuff

I imagine if I had friends, I'd be the one guy who gets left behind while the rest of my friends go somewhere else. Then I'd be all by myself sitting at a playground wondering where they went. I did this to a friend one time in grade school. I didn't realize what I had done at the time.

This is a swing set on a playground, in the background are the mountains and sun symbolizing the womb of a woman. There, it is a deep metaphor for home, a home I had never felt I had, a home either shortlived or destroyed by reality. The swing set halts in place along with emotions of mirth. Wonderment escapes me. Tell me, sun, tell me.
Why am I here? Can someone tell me? Anyone?

"It's hard to look at a love you can't understand."
In the beginning of the video when the father looks at presumably his son he looks at him through a window, a metaphor
often used to show a character is looking through clouded eyes, through a skewed point of view. The boy draws two eyes on the ground still innocent, and upwards they look towards seraph, a word referring to something religious and in general the sun and light. As he becomes more frustrated he carves eyes on his body when feeling the emotion of love confused as to what he is feeling. He looks through pained eyes. At the end of the video he has multiple eyes spread around his body, almost a protest against the standard that you must have two eyes, only one view. I didn't figure that out myself though. I read that from a Youtube comment.

I was thinking about starting a casual StarCraft club but took it back since that would involve....putting up a few posters around the school. Hum. It not happen.
Yo this is the end of this diary. Looks like it took me only 4 days to get bored of it.
I am so sleep. Sleep time. yawn....ahhh...yawn.

Have you ever actually written a journal or a diary?
When I went traveling this summer I kept a journal for nearly 2 months before the backpack it was in got stolen. What you wrote is nothing even similar to what I wrote, although that may be because I wrote specific events and notable interactions that occurred throughout the course of my day in it, so it had more direction.
It feels really awkward reading what you wrote though. Especially how you try to write it from the standpoint of something that you really know nothing about. Reading it with that in mind just kind of comes off as a bit ignorant to me. Overall it just reads it something in a fashion that I wouldn't imagine someone who consistently keeps a diary would write naturally. It's just like you based the entire entry off the start to this blog series.
I'm not well versed in the study of linguistics or anything, I just felt a bit awkward after having read it and didn't really take anything away from it, sorry :/

There's more than enough depressed people writing blogs on the internet. If you're going to pretend to be something you know little about, why not blog as something more unique? Preferably something that hasn't been covered ad infinitum by people with experience.

All you need to do is take all of those gizmos you are working with and cover them up with new words, couple that with an outline and you'll be writing whatever you like in no time. Maybe that will be enjoyable for you.
Best Regards

I don't want to be an a-hole, but you have the most boring writing style I've ever come across on these forums. I literally can't tell what you're writing about and I really don't want to, as it doesn't seem very intricate, interesting or even well reasoned.
In one of your other blogs you tried to use Carl Sagan's brilliant analogy of Flatland as some kind of deep metaphor for skill, that fell flat on it's face, the video was good though.
And for your previous blog, posted yesterday it was basically whining about SC2 having to measure up to BW, same old, same old.
At least you paragraph, could be a wall of text.

Hope I wasn't to much of a dick, but I really don't understand why you are writing these.
Also do you know any depressed people I remember being in a psychiatric hospital for 6 months, as you can imagine, I meet a depressed person or two while I was there and I can tell you that: Depressed =/= Boring, completely void of any emotional depth.
There's a reason why a myriad of famous poets or writers are speculated to have been depressed.

This sounds contradictory but ok.

This is pretty interesting actually. But it seems more like a person's stream of thought consciousness than a depressed person. This is more of a blog of someone wondering about what an aimless person thinks about than a depressed person  . Hey maybe you should write down some stream of consciousness thoughts on philosophy, maybe spirituality, maybe a crazy idea you had??
I don't know I think you'd have more fun than imagining what its like to be depressed; it just seems pretty hard. I think depressed people will thank you too for helping them think of something else. Oh well that's okay its an experimental blog, I had fun for several paragraphs. Now time for american ninja warrior
