Signature
- The wagon jolted on ... I don't think I was homesick. If we never arrived anywhere, it did not matter. Between the earth and that sky I felt erased, blotted out. I did not say my prayers that night: here, I felt, what would be would be.

May 2007.
Bush was President. Blair was PM. Sarkozy newly elected.
You were 3 years younger.
I was 15, stomping angrily and adolescently about.
Then I joined Mene, and became even more of a recluse.
:cool:
Happy 3rd anniversary, me.

So we watched Disney's [i]Peter Pan[/i] in Psychology to examine the media's influence on gender roles. (Wendy = Mother etc etc)
Not only did it portray Injuns (Native Americans) very racistly, but it made me think about my uncertain future.
It's a scary time.
Waiters are offering me wine lists.
Employees in petrol station shops are asking me if I'm buying petrol.
My drinks are no longer served with straws. T_T
I'm only 17! I don't want to be an adult.
I turn 18 in June, and in September I'm off to university... I've never even had a part time job. :gonk:
Plus, I thought I looked 14. >.>

Lol, I have a massive forehead and my side fringe (side... bangs?) looks like a comb-over. xD

I had to answer this essay question:
"How does Hardy present the supernatural in his poetry?"
Now, I picked out a couple of poems about ghosts, and the dead talking, as well as a poem where he talks to God.
The teacher sternly said to me, clearly not impressed, that "religion does not count as the supernatural."
I shrugged, and reported the verdict back to my atheist family and we all had a good, cynical laugh. xD

There was chaos at my school's bus station today. One of the buses had accidentally reversed into a hedge and got stuck.
:rofl:
In other news:
- re-reading my old diaries freshened some horrid memories :(
- I can't wait to see my favourite comedian of many years live for the first time (Bill Bailey) :boogie:
- I want an Obama thong. :eager:

Nice. Sounds like something I'd do just to piss off a teacher I didn't like.
I'm going through the same quarter-life crisis. I'm 17 now and I definitely don't feel like getting a job and joining the real world yet. I know exactly how you feel.
