Apr. 13th, 2006 05:34 pmWell today I went to Boronia with shel and Curt, then we came back here to the station and went to Pumpkins cafe and i had hot chocolate then walked home. But I saw Jo and we had a bit of a chat before my crossing for a while on Main street Lol! I was telling her about my travel and about my wanting to study in U.K. and she was giving me some ideas to look at which I'd never thought of before, eg. looking on the RNIB web site or getting in touch with them for their contacts and hints? hello?! I'm so not thinking! anyway .. and course I asked how she was and all then she had to go. but we keep in touch through A so I guess that's kinda OK Lol!
then I just was unlocking my door when Nan pulled out in her car. she said she was just off to give the easter stuff to the kids then she'd be back. she'll be here as she'll come with us tomorrow. am not sure when we'll be off tomorrow but they'll pick a time between the peak traffic, if that's possible for Good friday! :) So today was quite eventful! Looked over my draft this morning and though I'd nmade most of the changes, I made a few more. and we got sent info about the commonwealth comp but I can't enter that story in as it's like 700 words or more. so I think I might write another one! 2000 bucks is alright! course it was suggested we enter these class ones in but no, not me!
anyway to subject, I ended up reading a lot of 2004 entries yesterday from my LJ. it started with me looking at one of my memories - the bump with fame one about Celine Dion. anyway, gosh was i a drama queen?! I mean, it's funny cos I am told I am now but I don't see it now, yet I saw it big time back then and I would have denied it course. but I guess we can all see ourselves in different lights in other phazes of our lives which is probably a good thing. but I try not to be a drama queen now, and it seems like I have improved since then anyway! And something else I was thinking about as I was reading them is that we never think so at the time, but everything; every year, everyone and everything we do in that year are always memories for later on! I mean mostly we remember the good stuff, not the bad stuff. for example, most of the things I remember writing in 2004 but then a few entries I'm like "what? did I write that?" so everything will be a memory one day! and I already have my US trip last year as a memory, I have UK as a memory and course my future trips as future memories. And even if I think my life isn't going far at any given time, it's all still memories! Like now, I may think my life is suddenly uneventful again (even though I am finally doing so well with school), yet I can look back in a few years and have this as a memory; a memory of having just gone to UK and about to go there again. and more importantly, all the people we meet along the way. I may of had my worst experience at swinburn in 2004, but I met a whole lot of cool people! I only talk to one still (maybe 1.5 :), but everywhere we go we meet people! like even at that small workshop day I meet people! in my course I'm doing now, I just added someone to msn! it's just amazing that as we move on in life, we meet more and more people! Oh yes, it's just so amazing also how we can hear a song and link it back to a memory! Now in the 00's, less and less songs are linked to any memories just because there's not many I like or listen to produced today though there are certainly a few - about one a year stands out still! but early 90's more so, like I was a huuuuge listener to all the countdowns or charts cos I always had to capture Celine Dion's interviews from radio and where her music was sitting from week to week so a lot of songs, (even songs I didn't like) are always linked to those teenage years of my life!
OK tatita, will probably write before I leave!
til next time, RdFreak
