Waiting for the Red Line at North/Clyborn.

So… I posted all the stuff I had in my queue. I think I’m going to take a break from tumblr, twitter, and blogging in general. Recently, I’ve just been really frustrated over—what else—a girl. I’m really conflicted and discouraged over the whole thing. I want to just spill it all out here, but I think it would be very inconsiderate and improper of me to. Especially since I’m pretty sure the girl might read this and figure it out.

Tumblr, twitter, facebook… they’re all fun distractions. And that’s what they’ve become: distractions. I need to focus on what’s in front of me, physically. I need to get away from the glowing monitor screen. I need to move on. I need to get a girlfriend. I need to get fucking laid. I need to find love, no matter if it’s brief or everlasting. I need to get a damn life outside of this online bubble I’ve encased myself in.

So, dear followers. Thanks for following me. I really do appreciate it. I’m not going away forever, but I just need to break away from my bad habits, my addiction. I haven’t gotten anything really fulfilling out of it. I can’t continue reblogging amusing images, condensing emotions into phrases and quotes, and just wishing for things to be better.

I’m going to try and gain more life experiences, hopefully to mature and grow up some more. I was beginning to when I moved out here to Chicago last year, but I grew complacent, and at the same time, fell for this girl. Time to return my focus on other things.

If you ever grow unhappy doing something, why continue doing it? :)

Happily found that the Art Institute is completely free for the month of February, thanks to ComEd.  I’m going to take full advantage of this and go every day that I can this month.

The front window of Chicago Comics.

This is now my local comic book store where I get the latest issues. Just down Belmont and up a bit Clark, it’s really close and convenient. I don’t have a pull list there, but I’m considering it. Funny… I remember the first time I ever visited this place, a couple years ago on a visit to Chicago in 2007. I happened upon the place because it was right by where my cousin was working at the time. I never thought back then, that I’d actually be here, now, in Chicago and visiting that place again. I now stop by there practically on a weekly basis…

That reminds me, I always like to stop by the local comic book store of the cities I visit. There isn’t exactly a chain of them like there are for books like Borders and Barnes & Noble. They’re usually owned and ran by a local who just has a deep appreciation and love for comics. And because of that, each store is really unique. You can get a sense of the ownerships’ personality and style by how they set up their store.

Own a comic book store… it’s one of my personal dreams that I would love to pursue. It’s probably not one of the most lucrative businesses, but it involves something that I have a passion for, which is of course comics. Maybe if I happen to win or inherit a couple million, I’d do it. I’d love it if I could retire and just run a comic book store…
