You Are The Key Character
"It's what I was meant to do."

You are the true enigma. No one knows much about you, you do not understand much of yourself, and your life seems to carry no purpose. Yet regardless of everything around you - everyone knows that you are here for some reason, even if no one yet knows what that is. Things seem to simply fall into place for you. Almost as though some force is working either through you, for you, or around you. No matter your troubles, ou have been sent here to unlock something. This is your destiny.

he upsets easily and over-analyzes situations and worries far too much over this and that - sounds like me :P [SP]

I had the most interesting dream this morning - one of the better dreams that I've had in a while (ie. the one where I was IN A CULT AND COULDN'T GET OUT >_<). But anyways, I was in some dormitory or another, waiting for all these kids to show up, it was kind of like a Queen's program, and I was the don, waiting to lead these people to somewhere or another. There were a whole bunch of bunk beds, and as the kids came in they just all clambered about - I call them kids but they were all pretty much 15-16ish; for some reason Joyce was there with 'em. And there was one kid who asked if she had to go outside to smoke, or if we could just open a window. I remember seeing this lovely balcony in the hallway, and telling her she could smoke there. Once everyone was there we someone got into a caf of sorts, Diana was there, thus I was thinking Waterloo, but also Jelena and Stephie and Mok... how strange XD And there were definitely strawberries dipped in chocolate - that's all I remember eating. But we ate, and I talked to them, and Matt showed up, really loud, and there was a girl with this weird shirt, rather stacked, and this is what you get, inappropriate conversations in the LEAD office XD But all of a sudden we were outside, and my partner? was chopping at this tree trunk - and then it sprang open and there were all these bags in it, and we're look well look at that we're going camping! And we each grabbed a bag and ran. It was rather strange. And then that dream kind of faded into this huge school? wide ski trip and it so pretty out and we were all skiing, and for some reason Mr. C was trying to push Faith down the hill on her stomach, and it so wasn't working. XD But it was a good dream lol.

I definitely had a dream this morning that I brought my fish to my optometrist, and set the bowl down beside the big aquarium they had, and I was talking to the people there, and all of a sudden I look over, and my fishbowl, with my fishie, is inside this giant translucent fish - wtf. I didn't get him out before I woke up to realise it was raining outside and had to get up to close the window. -_-;;

On another note, the trailer to the Chronicles Of Narnia movie looks awesome.

Uuuuuuuuuugggghhhhhhh. That is exactly the sound I am making in my head/room/stomach. I don't know what's wrong - maybe my mom's right and I should've washed my hands when I came home before I devoured those biscuits. Uuuuurrrrggg stomach hurts so much but cannot lie down because I have too much to do. This sucks. My first exam's in 14 (school) days. WTF.

Saw Star Wars Episode III last night, kinda wanna see the original three now XD lol I'm not a huge Star Wars fan really (probably because I haven't seen the original three, nor did I remember anything from I and II), but the movie was good. There was some really cheesy parts, especially in the beginning, I still dislike Hayden Christensen's acting, but the ending was nice and dramatic.

And also, saw The OC finale - dum dum dum. Just when I thought they weren't going to end the year off cliffhangery. lol

WOOT WOOT. I definitely read an entire act of Zone, the three act French play I have to finish reading in two weeks. I'm proud of myself XD It took me two months to read Le Petit Prince XD Two days for the second act, and another day for the third, and I should be able to finish it. I'm actually very surprised I got through all of that - but the language was pretty easy, which is good lol. Now for some SparkNotes/French equivalent, to make sure I actually get this. The story's actually not that bad, it's kind of interesting, if only it weren't completely in French :P

[edit:9.47] I definitely cannot find an English summary for Zone. This sucks :P

Wheee went to Wonderland yesterday - it was awesome; even though it rained a bit in the afternoon. We went on a bunch of rides, including JetScream and Cliffhanger, neither of which I've been on before, The Italian Job, which was very cool, the Carousel for Math's sake, Psyclone and Sledgehammer (woot for figuring out which seats went highest on Psyclone XD), and we even got Iris to go on a couple rides ^_^ And mmm we shared funnel cakes, which are teh most awesome thing ever - all in all, it was a good day, and I shall upload photos (even though I didn't take many).

"Have you ever thought...like, if you looked really close up at someone's skin, you could, like, see their molecules? Buzzing around, you know? Cos there's...there's all that empty space, but it's not like you can see that. You'd have to be way close up, like."...

..."Look. Just. Don't tell everyone how high you are. It's stupid."

"Because nothing else about this conversation has been stupid. Thank god you're here to keep our standards up."

"Oh God, listen to the Prefect. Why don't you go tell on us if you're just going to lord your metabolism over everyone? Shit, that's the funniest word. Metabolism. Metaaaaaaabolism. Metab. Olizmay."

So, I definitely spent all day working on Yearbook - I hate ads. Hate them with a burning passion. You'd think they'd be easy to make, wouldn't you? But no. No. I'm either a retard who has been working too long, or Excel is fucking with my brain. On the plus side, all I need to do is get Cancer, Cabaret and Italy done, and place candids on 20 pages, and I'll meet last week's deadline yay! lol Which means I only have 24 dps to do for three weeks from now - 8 dps a week, sounds good.

And now to start on finishing the English project.

The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And I'm tangled up in you
Yeah

But I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills my mind
I somehow find, you and I collide

I'm quiet, you know
You make a first impression
I've found I'm scared to know
I'm always on your mind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the stars refuse to shine
Out of the back you fall in time
You somehow find, you and I collide

Don't stop here
I've lost my place
I'm close behind

Even the best fall down sometimes
Even the wrong words seem to rhyme
Out of the doubt that fills your mind
You finally find, you and I collide

You finally find
You and I collide
You finally find
You and I collide
.. collide . howie day

BRAVE ENOUGH TO SHARE A PRIVATE BOX OF DREAMS
by Erma Bombeck

When I slit open the envelope, a photocopy of a check for $5 fell out. The note with it was simple and direct, "I made this from my poem entitled, "Youth". Thanks for encouraging me."

Five bucks! What can you buy with $5 these days? A pint of designer ice cream? One rose? A home furnishings magazine? A pair of pantyhose? Four gallons of gas?

If you're Sarah, who lives in Louisiana, it can buy euphoria, with side orders of pride, hope and self-esteem and the discovery someone was willing to put a price on your talent.

There's a lot of Sarahs out there. . .women who keep their dreams in a private little box hidden from the rest of the world. Occasionally, they take the lid off and look at it just to know it's still there and then get on with their business of living.

It takes a lot of courage to show your dream to someone else. They might laugh. They might not understand. Worse, they might take it out of the box and drop it and where would you get another one? Dreams are fragile, you know.

Some people in desperation, give up on dreams. They clean house one day and decide, "This is ridiculous! I'm acting like a small child who refuses to give up a favorite toy." So, they toss out the contents of the box - the short story, the idea for a business, the college degree, the job they would love to have, the child they want, the trip they would love to take.

Then there are a few, like Sarah, who are willing to take a risk.

They take the dream out of the box, put it on and start living it. They lay bare their ego to discover if they are equal to the dream or if they are equal only to the fantasy.

Dreams have only one owner at a time. That's why dreamers are lonely. No one can help them with the struggle. No one can ease the pain of failure. There are some things they have to do themselves.

I understand the fears and apprehensions of the closet dreamers, but oh how I admire the Mother Teresas, the Geraldine Ferraros, the Samantha Smiths, the Christa McAuliffes, the Helen Kellers and, yes, the Sarahs who write poetry on the kitchen table at night. Are they winners? Winning is not what they're about. Neither are the rewards.

What is special about them is they're dreamers who put it on the line. They had the courage to admit that what they wanted was just beyond their reach, but if they wanted it badly enough. . . anything was possible.

They gambled. And for the risk, they were all rewarded with a legacy for others to follow. For some it was a trail that was blazed, an attitude that was changed, a place in history, a thought, a life that was touched.

That's the difference between them and those who never take their dreams out of the box. They leave nothing.

One more kiss could be the best thing
But one more lie could be the worst
And all these thoughts are never resting
And you're not something I deserve

In my head there's only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there's real and make believe
And this seems real to me

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm tore between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you don't know who I am
So let me go
Let me go

I dream ahead to what I hope for
And I turn my back on loving you
How can this love be a good thing
When I know what I'm going through

In my head there's only you now
This world falls on me
In this world there's real and make believe
And this seems real to me

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
You love me but you dont know who I am
So let me go
Just let me go...
Let me go

And no matter how hard I try
I can't escape these things inside I know
I know..
When all the pieces fall apart
You will be the only one who knows
Who knows

You love me but you don't know who I am
I'm torn between this life I lead and where I stand
And you love me but you dont know who I am
So let me go
Just let me go
.. let me go . three doors down
