Ahhh that sounds like a lovely environment -beams- I love creative people, artistic people, talented people. Music, media, photography, visual art, drama... I'm a drama kid. -points thumb at chest- And proud of it (: I have muso / arty friends. And we're pretty much the most wonderful and amazing people in the school. -laugh- I sound like such a narcissist, or egoist ... I'm not so bad, I have an inferiority complex in terms of other people, and a superiority complex in terms of life. So the better I think of myself - and I sometimes think of myself very highly - the better I think of others. -smile-
Of course sometimes I see hurt and badness in society, people thinking lower than lowly of themselves, which sinks me down. :/
Hmm..
Anyway.. I don't know what I shall major in, "the plan" was always something like a major in Law and a minor in Psychology or something to do with social work. But now I am becoming entranced by the notion of doing something like... like literature studies, or modern history, or something beautiful and interesting and amazing. Maybe something about drama.
-sigh- I don't know. I think I would enjoy law - I think I would enjoy anything I applied myself to, and succeed at it - but I worry about ... not "wasting", it wouldn't be "wasting". But like I could be living happier in something beautiful. I am a great believer in beauty.
-shrug- I don't know. We live for an eternity, it's a very long time.
And we are very, very young.
Also I generally act kindof ... out there. Loud. Passionate, I like to think. I get into arguments. Discussions, rather. I do unexpected things. (: It attracts attention. I think I was too quiet for too many years. It exploded in all this ... energy and life.
-smile- Druscilla's words, Druscilla's words. She's certainly talented. Although I have seen much talent on this site, much much talent. 15 months now. -sigh- A long time, multiple lifetimes. Because life is shorter now, have you noticed? In my town, my city - in my - yeah, here, a newly constructed building has an estimated lifetime of 20 years. 20 years! Why bother making things to last if you expect to demolish them in 20 years. That's what we've lost, you know, Kara - we have lost long-distance vision. We are surrounded by buildings and don't see the horizon anymore. We don't think beyond small periods of time. Even twenty years is so long now. Like me - I believe I just stated how many lifetimes 15 months was. Is. Was. -sigh-
I think people like feeling they're giving beyond all they've got, more than they admit.
I know I ... don't, actually, I'll readily admit it.
We need purpose. Like Fight Club preaches, we have no great war and no great depression... :think:
Mmm.
