What it all comes down to is that everything's going to be fine, fine, fine
I love this song. Alanis Morissette is a genius. The endless set of dichotomies always seems to strike a chord with me. I mean, how incredibly appropriate would it be to say I'm sane, but I'm overwhelmed/I'm lost, but I'm hopeful/...I'm brave, but I'm chickenshit when describing myself? Because I can be very brave when I set my mind to it: moving from Florida to New York against the wishes of my family to pursue a major none of my friends took seriously was a huge deal for me...but at the same time, I have these moments when you'd think I'd have absolutely nothing to be unhappy about, but I'm paralyzed by a nameless, irrational fear that it's dangerous for me to be so unguarded.
I guess I'd like to just take a moment and apologize to anyone who's ever had to deal with my gargantuan set of insecurities (which, if you're reading my journal, you most likely have). I appreciate the support I get from all of you and the fact that my neuroses haven't scared you off yet.
On a lighter note, I suppose if Facebook says it, it must be true :) I haven't been this happy about any one aspect of my life in quite some time. It's so funny how you can find yourself in a situation that's so completely unexpected and so completely wonderful at the same time. I guess it goes to show that you never can plan what's going to happen; life loves to shock the fucking pants off of you.
Okay, I've got to go debate Japanese politics now. Hurrah Shinzo Abe!
Peace out, ladies and gents.
