It's been over four and a half years since I last wrote an entry on this blog. Looking at it now, a lot has changed since then. And not just the fact that this entire website as a whole is different. Then again, a lot of time has passed. Facebook is now the dominate social media. 4K is the new 1080p. The new Bay Bridge is finally complete.
And I'm still the bumbling idiot with big dreams of being a filmmaker.
I'm not sure what compelled me to come back here. For the longest time, I just simply forgot about this blog as my attention was drawn to more important things. Naturally, most, if not all, of my friends have stopped blogging just as long ago. Their old blogs are still around, just like mine is, and looking at each and every one of them is like stepping backwards in time. Nostalgia is a strange feeling. I'm sitting here looking at things long past and I remember that those were simpler times. There was no feeling of adult responsibility overwhelming our every waking moment. In those days, all that really mattered was us.
Maybe I'm just terribly nostalgic. That has always been one of my greatest weakness. I always liked to quietly reminisce of happier times, without all the stress that preoccupies me these days. Back when I hung out with my friends all the time and only had to worry about what video games to play and who's house to hang out at next. I miss those, I truly do. But as they say, time waits for no one.
I'm not sure what point I'm trying to make here. But I think I'm gonna try and do some blogging again, at least whenever I find the time to. Who knows how long I'll be able to keep it up; my attention span was never too great, even when it came to important things. I'm not even sure who I'm talking to, aside from myself. The new blog title alone reflects how I feel in the middle of the night, about how I like to sit quietly with my thoughts after dark. So whoever is still out there and whoever cares to read, my thoughts are here for you to peruse.
Still, it's very quiet here. I wish my friends were around to share these moments with me, rather than the ghosts of their past selves.
