Rode my bike through my hometown yesterday which sparked some severe nostalgia it seems. This night I had an intense dream of waking up in 2009 in my old bedroom. Jersey Shore was playing on the tv and I lived a day like it was 2009 again. Going to school, dicking around outside, playing games with my brother. I woke up with food poisoning so that probably didn’t help either. Which is funny because I commented on someone here the other day who was also having a stomach bug.
I have to renew my residence permit over here soon and that has sparked some thought regarding what the fuck I need to do with my life and for the first time in years I seem to be somewhat homesick and I’m not really sure what it is that I’m staying for here.
Political wise nothing seems to be happening. The party wants to be open to new ideas from members but whenever I present my ideas I get hit with an ‘awesome that sounds cool’ and nothing happens. I’m not really sure what to do right now. We have a meeting every month and for the past month or three-four that is the only moment something seems to be happening. Basically all political action I did in the last few months were organised by other orgs. Sure, I could set up shit myself but my life is busy anyway and I seem to have resorted to minding my own business some more.
Can you talk with someone in the party about how you feel nothing is happening?
I could but it wouldn’t really be the first time. But I know I probably should.
