10.59am; saturday
just got back from physical mock paper. reckon i screwed the drq's up. bad time management and so i freaked out. *shit* well i got my grad nite dress! :) time to look for accessories. but i guess i'll put that on hold till most of my papers are over. was surfing the net and read that they're making a play on broadway of john lennon. that should be interesting. would love to see that really.. and apparently forbes reported that he's the 4th highest paid dead celebrity. elvis is tops and george harrison is 5th. well it pays to be a beatle; quite literally actually. hmm... i often wonder what it'll be like if i were a teen in the 60's.. living through beatlemania, the rolling stones. and growing up as a toddler to movies with elizabeth taylor, sophia loren, james dean, audrey hepburn. and singing to frank sinatra and elvis. but then i'll be an old foggey now who couldn't listen to matchbox twenty, john mayer and coldplay- i'll probably be hard of hearing.. but i could still watch jamie oliver.. (unless i have a cataract). Not a bad trade off eh? haha.. nah.. i'm happy where i am now, more or less.. i'm just afraid of growing up, the decisions i'll have to make and live with. it's going to be different. i wish i was a kid again, on the swing, propelling myself higher, feeling so vulnerable and yet so free.. knowing i'm safe coz my mom is waiting on the sides for me telling me "everything's gonna be alright.."
"And when it snows again,
We'll take a walk outside,
and search the sky
Like children do.."
