| What a beautiful sight awaited for mine eyes this night, as snaked my way towards a city made alive by lights. what a view.
steel and electricity, beautiful. Isnt that interesting? I think so.
I was driving today and I thought, "goodie, Christmas lights are being put up." that always makes me happy, and once again, they are just lights, Edison would be estatic at how happy they make us. But its all about connections man, its all about connections. Connections and equations, not math equations but things we equate for other things. Like lights being strung all over the place equals Christmas. Christmas equals warmth, singing, happiness, good cheer towards fellow man, one of the very few times that everyone seems happy to have greenery around (poor earth day).
But do all these things really happen? Shute I am not any warmer around Christmas, i am, if anything more cold. I love my bed alot more around Christmas cause it is warmer than the air outside of it, which means that it is harder for me to get up, and if you know me you know that is a chore, how am I going to be a teacher? Am I happier around Christmas, not really, I usually get more sad, no one to spend it with, etc (guys just havent figured out that I am super great, they better soon) and the whole buying of presents is stressful, and usually a letdown, though its supposed to be about giving, usually what is given you is, lets face it crap, and I usually feel bad, cause I didnt really earn it, even if it is something useful and lovely like a blanket. why should I get gifts now? And those movies are ridiculous. I have never heard a single caroler(sp?) come to any house that I have ever been in. I must say though, my favorite song is Mariah Careys awesome rendition of " All I want for Christmas is you." Yeah the giving thing to those in need is also super stressful so I try to do it all year round, and not face the blunt truth that there is so much to give to and for, that it is depressing, just once a year, if you do it all year round it makes it easier. Not that one shouldnt do it, but it doesnt make you happier. Unless you feel like your five dollars to the salvation army should justify the rest of your wasteful spending the rest of the year.
In conclusion, I have nothing else to say and dont know if I ended my little whatchamacallit, but I just reminded myself of the reality of my finals. hey would you call me???!!! I will be free soon and i want to chill with YYYOOOUUU!!!!
