Huh

I have to admit, I'm not in much of a writing/blogging mood, and haven't been for a while. My mind just seems so preoccupied with things, and even when I try not to think about them, I can't help it. Anyways, I still wanted to post something before time swooshed on too far ahead.

My mood + writing

Lately my mood has been, uh, stagnant. Not really sad, but not really happy. Just in the middle. I think about things the normally would make me sad, and they still do, to varying extents, and then I try to think about things that make me happy. I've tried getting back into writing, but it's annoying how every time I write, it ends up being a love confession. Even if its not entirely obvious, and even when I'm trying, maybe a bit too hard, to draw inspiration from elsewhere besides failed/unrequited love, my poetry, in my opinion, always seems to come out bland. I used to take a measure of pride in my writing, now I just kinda look over it and go "Meh." Maybe I just need to wait until my mood is better.

2012 Royal Rumble

I found the Royal Rumble to be kind of underwhelming. It wasn't nearly as exciting as previous years, and that wasn't because the winner was Sheamus over Chris Jericho, it was more of the fact that I'm not really sure they have any plans as to how they want things to play out. Also, on Monday it would have been better if we saw a verbal exchange between Chris Jericho and CM Punk, instead of just having Jericho come out and attack Punk randomly. Whatever. A certain wrestler's "vegan" gimmick is also very annoying. I like vegans, and I would like to be one, but it the gimmick still sucks.

On to better, well, at least more interesting/exciting news. But it could also be disappointing depending on who you are.

Miguel Cotto VS Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Cotto versus Mayweather! Of course, this is because Mayweather is ducking Pacquiao again, and anyone who thinks he isn't is just delusional or confused. After all that trash that he talked, its typical of Floyd to decide to fight someone who he has a higher chance of beating instead of the single guy who everyone wants him to fight, and who he needs to beat if he wants to be considered the best. Mayweather is a horrible person, that much is obvious. But he is an AMAZING fighter. It's just too bad he only takes on fights where he is more likely to win. Lack of confidence perhaps? That, fear, and denial. It's too bad that Mayweather's talent didn't end up with someone who wasn't such a pansy. But still, he is the most talented, and quite possibly the best fighter there is today. He just never takes the right steps to prove it.

Cotto is my favorite boxer, and has been for a while. I honestly thought he was going to retire after Pacquiao beat him, but he made a great comeback against Yuri Foreman and finally redeemed his loss against Margarito. Of course, whether or not Cotto is as good as he used to be, or whether or not he is good enough to beat Mayweather, we will have to wait and see. I really do want Cotto to win, and if he does, I will be very happy.

Unfortunately, for the both of them, I think this fight is more about money and reputation.





I think I'm just lonely.
