Welcome to the Sane Asylum

Do you ever reckon you're just waiting for your life to start? 

(LO, do you want a birthday party/dinner/whatever thing when you come over?)

Why do the "m" and "n" keys have to be next to each other? Bad enough that I think bandom and Bandon...

Also, my parents managed to institute a swear jar in the week that I was away. (Currently, I haven't paid anything. I'm already racking up a huge debt. *headdesk*)

So, I had an absurd dream last night, where I was back in 1st year, at a lecture we had over the destruction of lockers, which had somehow in my dream morphed into a lecture on energy. I was still me, but I was 12 again.

And it's kinda had me thinking this morning over what I'd do if I was to get a "do-over", I suppose. If I was to actually be back in first year again, as a 19/12 year old. There's not very much. A couple of big things and a few little lifestyle changes. I'd probably start the guitar earlier, and try and get my body into the habit of being fit - mostly because these are things I'm doing now, and I wouldn't like to change who I am completely from now. Although, having said that, since I'm 19 and I was 12, there'd probably be a lot of lifestyle changes anyway.

There are a couple of major things I'd change if I could - fatal accidents, an Incident. Stuff that hurt the people I care for. But who really knows what is preordained anyway, that I couldn't change if I tried. Would people listen to me if I warned them?

I'd probably try and grab some of my friends a bit younger too. LO, I love you and do not know what I'd do without you, and you'd probably be first on my list. Sorry! (Also, hi, I'm gonna go over comments and your LJ soon as I get into work... you might not catch this before then anyway.) Wouldn't do anything to the ones I caught early - lol, hi JA! If you're still around on LJ...

All in all, there's really not that much. I'm pretty happy with who I am now, and how I've lived my life. In honour of this theme, this(was trying to find Garth Brooks' "The Dance" too, but youtube appears to have let me down...).

If ever I ever express the bizarre wish of becoming a salesperson, please hit me until I make sense again... it's not the job for me.

Wow, it's been rather a long time since I've actually written anything on this thing. I mean, for serious, this is getting to be as bad as when I went on almost-permanent hiatus for fanfic. Not that too much has happened since I stopped writing; dropped out of college, Christmas, caught up with the girls, New Year's, turned 19 - which reminds me to change my profile, read, working at the office, considering the merits of moving to Canada, considering the merits of staying out of college, deciding a direction in life, the usual. Oh, and lol, JA proposed, LO, did I tell you that? We were bitching about something on Skype, can't even remember how it happened. :) We're gonna head to Italy on JA's dime.

Also, I have no idea how I knew that these guys existed for so long - well, so long being a few months, I guess - and didn't listen to anything by them. I'm kicking myself for that mistake now, cos they're kind of awesome. And maybe this way I'll be able to figure out the difference between Nate and Alex in Cobra Starship pics, though I'm still doubtful.

Thirdly, I think I'm going to have to start cataloguing my rugby bruises. My arm is ridiculously colourful, and my knees are permanently a vicious red. My shoulders are killing me as well, bloody Shannon viciousness. Apparently the girl that broke my arm three years ago was at the match on Sunday. So glad I didn't know that before the game. Also, I think I'm going to start writing again, just finish out the stories I have on the go. And get the hell out of Dodge - or the Charmed fandom, whatever.

{Psst - LO, if you're reading this, have a look at my moodtheme pic.}
