| i don't feel seventeen
so there was this woman and she was, uh, on an airplane and she's flying to meet her fiance sailing high above the...the ocean on planet earth, and she was seated next to this man who, you know, she had tried to start conversations and really...really the only thing she heard him say was to order his bloody mary and she's sitting there and she's reading this really arduous magazine article about a third world country that she couldn't even pronounce the...the name of and she's feeling very bored and very despondent and...and then, uh, suddenly there's this huge mechanical failure and one of the...the engines gave out and they started just falling thirty thousand feet and the pilot's on the microphone and he's saying, "i'm sorry, i'm sorry, oh my god, i'm sorry" and apologizing and she looks at the man and she...and she says, "where are we going" and he looks at her and he says, "we're going to a party, it...it's a birthday party. it's your birthday party, happy birthday darling! we love you very, very, very, very, very, very, very much."
sometimes i look a few years ahead to see what day my birthday is going to be on, and it feels like i'm looking into the future in a crystal ball. something i know will happen, that the day, 11th of november 2010 will be there, but what if i'm not? will i have a good birthday?
also, thanks for the wishes everyone!
ps: that is from at the bottom of everything by bright eyes. one of my favorite bright eyes songs in fact, next to lua.

| sometimes the hardest thing to believe is the truth
people who know me personally will know that i'm moving to sydney to do the foundation program only in january, which means that i get almost half a year off of school. most people think it's a huge amount of wasted time and life, but i really don't, full heartedly. i, unlike some people, don't want to be a doctor, or a lawyer, or an accountant, or a politician which actually do require excessive education, time and probably money too. just because my time is not spent on what should be important in my life right now, which is - you all have to admit - learning, college, education, and preparing for university, doesn't mean it's time not well spent. i'm not saying education isn't important to me, because it really is, but what people don't understand is that everyone has different pursuits, and different priorities.
when i leave, it's the start of the rapid snowballing down the hill, after all the years we've spent the slow climb up. i'll spend a year in college, and then a few years again in university and so on. what's a few months spent (not wasted) if it means slowing down and soaking everything in before it speeds up?
