ok so i really just need to get some things off my chest.
ive been really confused lately, like i just dont know what will happen for me in the future. ive been thinking about kairos, college, extended essay, history IA, school, friends, fun, and more school. but i just dont know what i want to do. it feels like booker t. again, because im getting the same feeling. but i cant do anything about it. i want to, but i dont want to give in to that feeling. plus the consquences are absolutely monumental.
i hate living like this, i'm finding more and more parallels from my life to anna karenina's, and of course something MUST be wrong if I'm at all similar to a literary protagonist, much less a tragic character that ends up committing suicide. the only difference is that i havent succumbed to the overwhelming passion of desire that is slowly eating me alive. not yet, anyways.
i feel like all i can do is wait it out. the hardest part is being the only one to feel this way, and having so many caring people around me that i initially long to shun. I see everyone living around me and being so happy, and i feel as if I am happy but only in a different world. It is as if it is impossible for me to associate myself with society. However in my efforts to associate myself I find that there is no way because still i am shunned for my decision.
I watched "Flava of Love" today and realized how degrading that show actually is. In fact, our entire society is becoming more open which could result in a horrible, tragic end. I know I'm not ready for this. How can i express it? I am losing what used to be an infinite craving. Now, the flame is dying and I can't seem to find a way to relight it. Sure, contact would help, but I contemplate whether or not it is deeper than that.
Is it only because of what i am daily exposed to? It is quite a possibility. There's not a way to equally compare. And engraved feelings cannot be erased with ease. Yet I fear it could be more than that, perhaps erasing easier than I think.
Only time will tell, I suppose.
Ring Dance was amazing. Thank you, Justin.
Tomorrow = local show with emily. looking forward to that.
