Wow, I haven't updated in ages. That fact is probably a testament to how uninteresting my life is.

Exams next week. I'm stressing the hell out. I've sort of fallen out of the school routine; it's been so damn easy I haven't really needed to study at all. One might say I've gotten lazy. Another issue is that I don't really care that much about school anymore... it used to be the most important my life, but at one point I started hating it more every day. I hate most of the people I go to school with, I hate the system, I hate the uselessness of most of what we're taught. Most schools all seem to be stuck in the same world; one of classrooms and studies. I feel there's a huge seperation between the School world and the real world. It doesn't feel like I'm being prepared mentally for all that life has to offer. The focus is on academics and indoctrination, not on openmindedness and strength of spirit. If there was any way I'd get the hell out of here and apply at Brockwood Park School, but alas, we can't afford it.

Heh, rant over. I guess. I still have a shit-ton of studying to do, and I have to go to this political debate for Humanities later. And do a 1000+ word writeup about it, of course.

Obligatory Anna countdown: 26 days. <3.

Personal update:

0900 GMT+1. Getting ready for my last day of school for over two weeks. My plane to England leaves tomorrow. I will be away for a week.


YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! ^_________________________^


Dismissed.

Sixteen days. Flight has been booked.

My Skinny Puppy live DVD arrived today. Great stuff. They were absolutely INSANE back then.

If all goes as planned, Anna is visiting again in two weeks. *tries to hide excitement*

I'm leaving for the airport in a little over 4 hours.

Excited, nervous, insecure.

More rain. How frustrating.

Just one day left!

Third post.

I got reacquainted with Danielle today. We used to be good friends. We lost contact about 6 months ago, which was completely my fault.

I've missed her, though. Hence I decided to PM her. We started talking again. She's changed a lot. As have I. She's still a great person. Catching up with her was fun. I'm glad we're talking again.

Jonas.

It rained like a bastard today. How depressing. I did hang out with Bea though, which was fun.

2 days!

You fit in with: Humanism Your ideals mostly resemble that of a Humanist. Although you do not have a lot of faith, you are devoted to making this world better, in the short time that you have to live. Humanists do not generally believe in an afterlife, and therefore, are committed to making the world a better place for themselves and future generations. 20% scientific. 80% reason-oriented.

The following things(that noone gives a fuck about) have been going on in Jonas' life:


I've lost some friends and gained some more.

School is going well.

I am meeting Anna(who happens to be the best person in the world) on Monday.

The new Thrice album is good.

I still can't put my thoughts into words very well.


Thank you.

Also, this:

"...it seems as though we've met them somewhere before, in a previous life perhaps, or in our dreams. In Plato's 'Symposium', Aristophanes explains this feeling of familiarity with the claim that the person was our long lost 'other half' whose body we had originally been stuck to."

...

"Agreement was found on so many different issues, we were forced to conclude that, despite an absense of clear separation marks, we must once have been two parts of the same body."

...

"...I had a last found someone whose jokes I understood without the need of a dictionary, whose views seemed miraculously close to mine, whose loves and hates kept tandem with my own and with whom I repeatedly found myself saying 'It's amazing, I was about to say/think/do/tell the same thing...'"
