Fast forward to Friday evening. It's been a rather eventful week, the subtle end to the college semester and the beginning of a beautiful holiday. Monday was presentation day, Tuesday was kiss ass and complete work day, Wednesday being the same as Tuesday, Thursday the check marks day, then today, the true meaning of holiday. Like I said, it's Friday evening, and I just woke up. It's hard to imagine that only a few weeks ago that my college life was in utter turmoil and the balance of work seemed to have a life of it's own. As the bloody thing (work,that is) kept piling on until the grand finale, I can now finally say that it's done and over with. You just can't see or feel the relief. You'd have to understand the feat of completing a 4 month semester's worth of work in 2 1/2 weeks. And then, just like in college we say: "you'd have to believe"...

Sunday, November 17, 2002
It's 5:30pm now, and I just woke up like an hour ago. Right now I'm just chiling out to the song by john mayer-"your body is a wonderland",(if you've heard it and you'd probably have) and it all just seems very surreal--this moment that is...it's another one of those days where the weather is just spot on and the soundtrack just compliments it,the reflection of dim sunlight on the walls, the sounds of rustling leaves and the endlessness of the blue sky above.This picturesque moment, one I'd like to capture not only in image,but in emotion...is what I'd like to call a lazy Sunday evening. Haven't had one of these in awhile...
It's 1:40am now the very next day, and well it seems that my slow start to the day eventually became a slow day and here I am again,approximately 12 hours later, online,downloading some 64MB video off the net (again) after finally finished watching "Someone like you" which I had watched the first half months ago and never got around to finish it. Now that I have, I'm glad I did.While the story wasn't that particularly touching like Serendipity (well Kate Beckinsale works wonders, whether I'm drunk or not.), but it did(as all movies do) open yet another door to the further understanding of relationships and maybe an insight on what life throws at us. Right now,as the sublime clear tones of U2 play through the Labtec speakers, I feel moved, yet I'm far away thinking of something I can't really understand. A very bad habit,this; maybe it's the after-effects of Marlboro Lights ,or maybe it's that impending feeling that tells me to move up. I'd choose the latter, but then I'll leave behind a life I'll probably see again but never experience. We all have choices to make,we do; and whatever we choose is never wrong, but is simply a diversion from what, in the end, we would undoubtedly become. Don't carry too much emotional luggage,or it'll weigh you down. Don't look too far ahead or you'll be afraid to move forward. What is to come is set in our fates, and all we can do is to keep going and make the right choices. Life it seems,is all about that. And if you can truly relate with this, then you'll see.
