time spent on RL does not necessarily mean i have no life outside the scene.
I took 15 units this past semester. I went into the city and shopped around several times a week.
I bike to the sites in town like twin peaks, the beach, and golden gate park.
I have many non raver friends. I go to temple when I am home in LA. I can discuss every single topic my parents bring up all the way to mysticism and kaballah.
there is a difference between being obsessed with this forum and making raving your life.
My sig is mainly aimed towards people up here i know, who do nothing but focus on the rave world. they post a ton on the boards, rave every single weekend, only spend money on raves, and if they are not raving they are making kandi, doing drugs, or meeting up only with ravers.
and i like the idea of the quote. i'm not hating on anyone. because i do so much during the weekday often, including tons of cardio, i get to my room and honestly just want to sit on my ass and post here. its relaxation for me. its also a way to communicate with ravers in socal who i miss dearly.
and if you notice, a lot of the posts on these boards are about things OUTSIDE the scene. the gay marriage one? the anorexia one? the voting one?
whereas i know people who see those threads and either ignore them completely...
or just bring it back to raving.(its mainly in the sf forum) it makes me sad the people i know up here who really can't hold discussions if it doesn't involve raving or drugs.
MOST people on THIS forum....my sig does not apply at all(i really wish we could have different sigs for each forum...but whatev)
all in all....i just love the quote.
and i have TONS of free time right now.
next year ill be working 20 hours during the weekdays(in a market preparing food!), 15 units again, and either doing more work on the weekends, planning out my event, or going down to LA.
first year of college? beer pong got old. so i post.
Don't think i dont hang out with people every day...im just good at time management and am able to do a LOT in one day.
look at psilo....he mentioned that his total for forum posting combined for all forums is somewhere around 3,500. this is mainly the only forum i post in. i go to 4r, bayraves, ***********, and bluelight sometimes but mainly only this. so its relatively not that much compared to some people.
btw, another good one:
