ok, so it's my birthday. now what?
20 years this world has had to put up with me, and things arent going to change. i always thought that i'd make this world a better place. or at least the small one around me. i keep to myself, but i affect so many. i wish i had many lifetimes to put into just one thought. just to think, you know? i do that. alot. i pace and imagine things. it's great. keeps me sane, i guess. my mother always told me i'm the strongest person she knows. i've delt with alot. i know i'll deal with more. i really dont care. just as long as i get where i'm going.. or want to go. i dont like obstructions, i avoid them if possible, but i expect them. which i guess helps me avoid them. i'm one step ahead the game. this show "dead like me" has really got me thinking about life. i dont want to look back and wish i had done something different. i rarely do, as it is. i live MY life. i'd change some small things, of course. but i think our experiences shape us into who we are, who we become. i'm happy. so why change? i mean.. if i could go back and invest in some stocks or get the winning lotto ticket, that'd be cool. but that's not what i'm really talking about, and i think you knew that. i think when i die, i would like to explore. whatever there is to explore. if there is a heaven, i dont know if i'd like to live there. it'd be, like, a vacation home. and, you know, if there is nothing after death... i'm ready for that, too. i really dont care. it'd be nice, though- to have something to look forward to. i always thought half the fun is getting to where you're going anyway. like, learning for yourself.. it's not as fun to just be given the answers to anything. it's a challenge, and you feel good after overcomming it. and it's nothing to do with ego. i remember reading a while back in my science journals that while learning fun facts, the brain undergoes drug-like states. high on education! hah. it can also be an addiction. isnt that a fun fact? huh huh huh. where was i heading? oh, yeah... life is waiting for you. it's all messed up, but we're alive. i think that's the right lyric... oh, well. they had weird songs anyway. still, they were good. good and CANADIAN!!!! BWUAHAHA! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ME!!!
