and she says, “I like long walks and sci-fi movies”
I had a good day today; aced an astronomy quiz I never read for and got out of every class early. But after outings about town, I come home and want to stare at the blog. I find my mind wandering more and more lately, as though it has nothing to actually focus on. Which is fine, I like my imagination. But when day dreams are the only thing that cheer me up and I start humming songs that I don’t remember knowing, it gets slightly creepy.
On a happy note, I love historical humor. The guest on The Colbert Report just said that “nullification” was a sexy word and that Andrew Jackson would have loved Youtube. My brain is now wandering again, but back to the point–my opinion of this semester so far is decidedly hazy. Classes seem breezy and I have little breaks between some classes, so it’s much less stressful. I just think that feeling of not being particularly happy is much more haunting than a legitimate feeling of depression. At least one way or the other I’d be able to grab an absolute. I know that “only a sith deals in absolutes,” so I guess I’ll keep myself open for new things.
I feel like I’m trying to fill a void when I can’t even pinpoint why there’s a void present. I find myself liking things that I don’t have and missing friends that aren’t even mine. Time to keep floating along, singing something new each day I suppose.
If you think about it, take a listen to:
