I havent even thought about livejournal in a long time.
but tonight i am feeling heavyhearted and decided to get nostalgic.
i'm suprised by how mature i was when i was a younger person. i haven't really changed at all, does this mean i have a peter pan complex, or does it mean that i got mature early?
probably a bit of both. let's fast-forward to now. things of note:
- i still work at mcdonalds.
- i still go to a lot of gigs
- i still buy a lot of records. though since my LJ days i've been listening to a lot more of:
- Influential 60s singer-songwriters (ie. dylan, cohen, van zandt)
- Hip-hop (biggie, jay-z)
- Pop (timberlake, furtado, kelis)
- I'm trying to get into blues right now
- though i still totally dig indie/DIY music
- i host a regular show on fbi, with matthew, middays on thursdays
- i'm dating somebody who i am completely, perhaps dangerously, smitten with
- i'm doing a bachelor of arts (media & communications) at unsw, majoring in film. this semester in particular has a lot of early starts and it feels a bit like i'm doing it all in vain
- i still have little sense of direction
- i am wide-eyed and optimistic for what is ahead, but those things i am anticipating are just elaborations on my current passions - music, cinema, parties, friendships. i will be a success but i cannot picture it.
- i still enjoy taking the time to write down my grievances on the internet, despite a relatively idyllic lifestyle.
So who's still on here?
I may never write another post again. But tonight i'm overtired, the only person i long to hear from is M.I.A., and i am nostalgic for the old livejournal fun i used to have.
