In which I start out somewhere, and end somewhere else altogether...

I don't have much to say, but I think it's a good thing. It's been far too long since I have done nothing. Far too long since the things that make my day are insignificant to most. Far too long sice I've climbed trees and gotten hot, sweaty and dirty. And far too long since I've listened to Canon in D major.
Everything is slipping by much to fast, and I seem to have found some respite in the last few days. Finally, time is standing still again. It won't stay still much longer, but it's standing still now.
There's so much to be done. So many more trees to climb, so much more of summer to revel in, so much more of childhood to remember, so many more LOTR marathons to sit down to, and so little time to do it in. My life is just beginning, but much of it is ending. It's customary to believe that the end of childhood is the dawn of puberty, but it isn't exactly true. In fact, childhood can last forever if it has to, but it can never remain the same as it was. That's the rule. It wouldn't be so special otherwise. I think, at last, I can feel it. Closure. The death of the old, the birth of the new. These last two years have been quite an adventure. I started out at an insecure child, controlled by my notions of what I should be, and here I am at the end, having broken notions, stereotypes, dreams, fears, hopes, and meeting so many people just like me, and also so different from me, along the way. Thanks everyone, for teaching me that there's absolutely nothing wrong with being who I want to be (gah. I'll formalise this into a proper post sometime).
In short, I'm quite ready for another adventure. But not just yet. I have time. I have summer. The last school summer I'll ever have. I need to make the most of it.

New headphones...

Title says enough, methinks. Finally, finally.

Back...

Done. Forever. Never again will I have to write a board exam.

Now I;m just jamming to The Cat Empire and watching loads. LOADS, of Tropfest shorts. Short films are definitely my new favourite genre.

I can finally start working on my language now. What a relief!

Nothing further to report.

Over and out.
