Blogging virginity gone with the wind.

3 CENTS

I am growing more and more concerned about certain people as the time to return to school approaches. It's crunch time, our final year, and the cracks in people are beginning to show. Yes, it's the HSC and it's very important, but where does one draw the line? What is the price of friendship?
I understand that some people are focused on a goal already knowing exactly what they want to do, but weighing up between a fantastic mark and the experiences and bonds that one will carry through the rest of their lives (mastercard advertisements)?
Birth. Life. Death. These three things we will all experience, of that there is no doubt, yet how we choose to live is open.

But shouldn't we experience life to it's fullest, spending our best days with friends?
I know that without seeing my mates, my mind slowly decays. So how is it that people can sever ties in an instant? People I were once close to have been, and are, becoming increasingly distant. And if it continues, I cannot continue to be close with them. Friendships are mutual, and if they cannot understand that, then there is no hope for them. So that's my 3 cents, shape up or ship out.

DAY

So now, moving on. Today (9th Jan 2010), I experienced the greatest visual piece of wizardry that exists. AVATAR. Technology just continues to improve in leaps and bounds, but the experience from AVATAR was just mind-blowing. I cannot wait to see the boundaries of CGI and the physical world indistinguishable, although this film comes mighty close.
However earlier in the day I had a surprise. AMARA! A friend who I had not seen in 2 years. Funnily enough whilst departing the last time we met 2 years ago, my last words were "See you in a year.". After having such a long outing drought during these holidays and then her showing up out of the blue (it wasn't really out of the blue for everyone else, they knew she was coming), it was great to just find that we could connect as if we had been seeing each other for the past month. I also remembered how violent Thai women could be. First-hand.

I must thank Dani, the past few weeks have been testing to say the least (keeping oneself occupied is difficult, I now truly admire the average hermit). He is a sincere friend and only has good intentions to aid people. I'm determined to make sure this friendship will never end, even though I will outlive him.

KLOSING

I tend to suppress emotions, to the point that even many close friends don't know my true thoughts and feelings about things. The reason that I may appear 'cold' is to hide emotions; being constant sources of jokes, bullying, and other experiences have taught me to throw away emotional baggage; problems arise when you become too emotional, hence why you should "Always look on the bright side of life". Find the funny side of things. So that's it for my first blog, I'm tired after a long day in which i've had a chance to reflect. Maybe next time (i'll see how the blog goes) i'll reveal some things you didn't know about me, some insight for you and me, into myself. Remember, none of you know me yet.
