Nobody Gets into Heaven Without a Glowstick
November 01, 2003, 11:39 p.m. After the musical last night, Ellie, another friend of hers, and I went to a party being hosted by a guy in Ellie’s photography class. Well, I don’t know if you could really say I went – I was there a total of about 5 minutes before I told Ellie I wanted to go home. It took us another 15 minutes to get out of there, but still, it was a pretty brief appearance. Why? Well, I didn’t know anyone and they wanted $10 off me for the punch, which I wouldn’t be drinking anyway. I just knew I wasn’t going to have a good time. I think I’m going to have to accept that I won’t have another boyfriend for a long time. People seem to meet their love interests at parties, pubs and clubs, and I hate those places. Hell, I met my last, and first (at the age of 19), over the internet. That’s not going to happen again, it’s too flukey. Everyone says you should enjoy single life, but when they say single life, they mean partying and being reckless and stuff like that. Stuff I don’t enjoy. It’s hard to enjoy single life when you didn’t see any downsides to being in a relationship. There’s nothing I can do now that I couldn’t do then. There’s a hell of a lot of things I can’t do now that I could do then. Ah, bloody hell. Eledhwen’s going to berate me for wallowing once she sees this : ) I’ve been reviewing. I know it’s apparently diary death to talk about those you’re reviewing, but bear with me. We keep getting a lot of Christian diaries over at Straight Up (not quite sure why – they never score very well), and, well, it’s been making me think. Tell me, who among my readers believe in a higher power? Does your belief follow on to a belief in an afterlife? Do you believe in Hell? If you’ve answered yes to all those questions (and even if you haven’t, and just want to offer your opinion), answer this question: I don’t believe in God, or any higher power – so am I going to hell? Well?
