Column is…. GO:

 

I feel like I have to do something with my day before I’ll let myself go to sleep. I had a fun day. Not really productive in any way… but fun. I supposed that should be good enough, but perhaps giving the internet a talking to will ease my conscience enough to let my sleep.

 

I recently found out one of my friends from last semester (perhaps “classmates” would be a better term. Sadly we never really got to know each other outside of the classroom setting…) is studying abroad in Morocco. My initial reaction was “oh shit, people actually DO that? That’s ridiculous! But the more I thought about it, the more I decided it was actually one of the coolest things a person could do. I pictured myself in her situation. I imagined what it would be like. Getting up every morning in a strange house, with a family I’ve never met. Eventually starting to feel at home in another country… another continent. I don’t know if that’s for me… I don’t know if I could ever do it. It takes a lot of gusto to do something like that, a lot of drive to seek out all there is to be found in life. For now, I’ll just respect and admire those people who decide to go for it and try to seek out all that there is to be sought in my life right now.

 

My options are truly limitless. For once in my life. I’m stuck in a jail cell in my head right now. I can see clearly through the bars into what the other side is like. Getting there is as unattainable as cutting through those bars with my comb-prison shank.

 

This song has been the theme-song of my dreams lately. Literally.

 

I saw my sister this weekend. It was kind of refreshing I suppose. Knowing that there is life beyond Lebo and Lawrence. I guess it expanded my views on the world in a strange way. Beyond the philosophical shit, her place is nice. I love the art throughout. My house will look like that, whose art it will be is unknown (I’m hoping for a mixture of hers, my own, and others… all cohesively arranged in a non-gay fashion)

 

I think I should update more often. I always am reluctant to start, but then once I do, I am reluctant to stop. It’s a strange thing.
