Flash-Bang.

Life, relationships, and sex are less about chemistry than they are about gravity, astronomy, and the physics thereof.

Two bodies attracted to each other, less force on each other the further away they are. Move them closer and the attraction is stronger. They circle and orbit, spiralling inward until they collide. 'Bang, energy.'

Bodies in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force? Two people are in this great relationship. They'll stay in that great relationship until change takes place. Basic relationship sense. The change could be 'growing up' or 'growing apart' or that ever-pesky 'infidelity'. Whatever the reason, the two bodies have changed course.

The hotter a star is, the more energy it expends. The hotter is burns, the faster it burns out. The cooler it is, the slower it burns out. It may not burn out for several billion years due to the fact that it expends almost no energy in its burning.
The same can be said for a relationship. A very intense relationship will burn out very quickly or peter down to a simmer because all of the energy is expended very quickly in a short amount of time.



There's so much else that I can say on this subject. I'm neither educated enough nor unbusy enough to do so, though.

October is not red or blue, Country is good, Positivity, and Suing God.

October is amazing. Definitely not blue, that's for certain.

I've been listening to country music and I think I've finally found part of what I was missing. I really just hope that I can pull it all together.


For some reason, I'm really happy. I'm just... I'm good. Positivity doesn't suit me much, but I'm learning to change my outlook. It's easier than it should be, I suppose.


News:
Suit against God thrown out.

Yes. That did just happen.

Sentiments, 10/35, and Reloading prayers.

It's kind of strange to listen to music and think about the people you used to be. My sister's reading this book called 'The 10 Women You'll Be Before You're 35' and the title really sticks with me. We change at different rates and for different reasons. Whether it's from age or necessity or traumatic events or joyful events or all of the above or [insert reason here], we change. No one is static.

I had a birthday about two weeks ago. It was pretty... interesting.


I'm composing paragraphs and storylines without a pen or paper. Bad idea, yes?


"Whenever I re-load, he's on top and I can't help but feel that it's a sign. Oh God, grant me peace so that I may find strength within myself to love myself enough to clear out the cupboard in my head of photographs and words. Grant me patience so that I may not have to do this all in one go. Help me persevere because I can't do this alone."


Everything happens for a reason, you know? Life ends or goes on. Chaos and loaded consciences. It's pretty reasonable.

Sleeping paranoia and Pre-existing death.

I've been trying to find a way to sleep at night that doesn't involve sleeping. That doesn't really make sense, but neither does going to the cinema or dinner alone.

For some reason, I've become really paranoid. It doesn't negatively affect my behaviour, but I'm definitely more aware of choices I make. Almost chaos-theory-esque.

I'm going to die soon. I don't know when and I don't know how, but it'll be soon.
Such is life. We're born, we exist, we die. Very few people ever really live.

Is it possible that we're dead and we just don't know it?

Archived letters, Dandelion hard-drive, Admit one.

A long time ago, I wrote a letter for a bloke I used to date and saved it on my hard-drive. I went through files a while ago and found it and read it and was absolutely floored at the sheer gracelessness of the words.

Every day, it feels a little like I'm leaving something behind that I shouldn't. Like there's some part of me that deserves to be alive, but I'm killing it by growing.


I've started to save everything. Not hoarding, no. More along the lines of collectivity and archivism. Whole chapters of books I never started and songs I've never considered singing scattered sporadically around my hard-drive like dandelions in the back garden.


Birthday in two and a half.
We celebrated tonight.
It was excellent.

I have no idea what that is, but it sounds pretty fun.

Waking up isn't as much fun as it should be, sometimes.

I'm in Hawaii.
We caught the flight that day I had BurgerKing.
I suppose I should eat fast food more often when I'm travelling.

I don't really know how long I've been here, but I've been generalising at "a week".

I've got a new phone.
Nothing swank, but definitely not my technology brick.
(Though my old phone can apparently go through the washer, get dried out, and still work perfectly fine.)



Class starts Monday.

Available space for bugs, malfunctions, and devilish belfries.

Due to a malfunction of the most irking nature, I have to re-write this amazing post I had written.

Basically, I'm sitting in a terminal being annoyed by bugs and children (I can't decide which is worse), trying to not re-visit my breakfast from earlier (wonderful French toast sticks from Burger King), and biding time until my battery dies (in both my mobile phone and laptop). Thank goodness for free internet.

Mum is making friends with everyone in the terminal.

We're flying Space-A, so the fact that there are no flights going to Hawaii at this time is really steaming my biscuits.


I'm also trying to warm my hands on the computer, but it's not exactly working.


Also, The Blue Screen of Death made an appearance at the Olympics. Whut?

Growth, Dedication, Fruitflies, and Casual Desperation.

You grow a lot in four years.

It's hard to see while it's happening, but when you step back and read four-year-old journal entries, you see that you've become a different person than the one who started.

It doesn't matter if you started late or early because early starters could finish late and late starters could finish early.

"Desperation caught in the throats of the girls who wished they thought of it first..."


I realised today that dedication isn't the amount of time you put into something, but rather what you do when other people are investing time into something.
While the people next to me were conjugating verbs or worrying about gerunds or coming up with a different way to say "things", I was figuring out how to catch a fruit-fly by the wings while the insect struggled for escape.
I managed it one night. Out of the air at a friend's house.
