im slightly tipsy, not really anymore though cause its wearing off.
i love sinking into another world. call me a freak but i just love being in another world, just the way i want it. music gets me there, movies can, alcohol can, computer games can, dreams can, making myself part of it and making the world around me part of it can. i usually dont turn to alcohol cause im not a booze-o but a little bit helps. im so happy in that world, im at home, its so perfect not like here. here is the pits of hell to it. here is the pollution. i can be happy here by pretenging im from the other world, come to this one to cleanse it of evil, or come here temporarily etc etc. i mean i can be happy just in realism here but its not the same. i love the other world so much, the world of mind.
here are some things that get me into the world, so you can guess what its like:
-my sword, dagger, etc
-a cape, or anything medieval, magical etc
-Opeth (the instrumentals) stuff with classical guitar, violin, cello, etc. classical and instrumental stuff, and orchestral
-Diablo I, the game, and Diablo II
-the music from the above games
-being in the wild, preferably more european and new zealand wild than gum trees and stuff
-movies like lord of the rings, van helsing, etc
-books like lord of the rings, the view from the mirror and other fantasies
as you may have gathered, i love the idea of fantasy, magic, and medieval combined. i wish i was in a world with that sort of music, of swords and bows, magic, evil, no real authority (anarchy), etc. a world of no constraints, of nature, of unpredictability, magic and other elements, other depths, things which actually achieve things, a world where man is just another creature, not an all powerful monolith. a world of doubt and fear, different views. i dont care if its fake and theyre wrong (eg im athiest) i just want something deeper than the steel and concrete around us. i want something where we can live our lives the way we want, be free, be alone, know its a big bad world out there not a sterile world weve already conquered. a world of friends and enemies and adventure and... where everything needed hasnt already been invented and where one with a brain invents the longbow or flaming arrows or a magic relic or fortified walls, not an electric toothbrush or new health drug. bah. i want to be free, i want to be part of the world growing, not electronics or computers or genetic modification growing. that shits boring and sterile and for shade of grey scientists.
ps i dont give a shit if you laugh. its something i really like, something which takes me away from everyday and if you have a problem with it then fuck you. we all have different outlets. this is just one of mine.
