I am tired beyond belief. it seems like every blink lasts a second longer. im typing like a turtle (haha) right now, but i have something to say, and that is what my blog is about. just me having something to say.
so today, im talking about transitions, mainly school, but other things as well. im just curious as to how we, as teenagers, actually transition to teenagers from children, or from teenagers to University students and adults. how the hell does that work? well for you i have a little analogy. life, is like a new printer. at first, everything is apples. everythings good, just like the first part of life, where the biggest problem a kid might have is what toy to play with(in modern society ofcourse, this obviously excludes third world countries and poor families. this is more about the average joe, not specifics). you might need to refill ink and paper, but everything at first seems so simple, so easy, everythings working. Then, the printer starts to jam. paper gets stuck, ink won't go into the printer anymore, text prints in different colors, some features may not work anymore. this, is highschool. teenagers. all of a sudden, it becomes a struggle to be happy, something that before was easy as pie. and if you cant tell by my writing (apples, pie) i really want apple pie. anyways, you have to work out the kinks, and everything seems much harder. simple tasks become time consuming. you know you need to do well, but when your life, the printer keeps on jamming and not working properly it becomes a struggle. so you finally decide to fix your printer, or get a new one. and after education, everything becomes gravy once again. life is a process, a routine that is completed every day, just like the printer needs ink and paper to work, life needs fuel and resources, our education and our friends. i have began to realize that life, isnt as linear as I once thought. I now believe that like life, dreams, and death, the sequence of life, isn't always linear. sometimes, one must die before they can live. I believe that we all shut down, and turn back on later in life. i believe that we dream, die, then live. and once we die, i believe that this isn't death, honestly i don't know what it is, but for me, my perspective is that we die before we live. we have to question our roots, our very structure on which we were built on. now i know this probably sounds like a lot of bull to a lot of people... they are probably thinking.. Tony, are you high? what did you smoke today? well, i hate drugs with a passion, so no, i never will do that. this all makes sense in my head, and its hard to write it down, you know? it happens to everyone, you know what your trying to say, but you can't say it. i tried the best i could. just remember, hold on, the weight of the world will give you the strength to go.
Which brings us to the song of the day
The last line i wrote, "hold on, the weight of the world will give you the strength to go" is off the song of the day, Linkin Park's "Robot Boy" off their most recent album A Thousand Suns. I cannot emphasize enough how much i Love this band, and everything they have made and done. easily, my favourite band of all time, they have been since their debut Album Hybrid Theory, that was 11 years ago. Every single album they have made, i have loved. 11 out of 10 for me. its like every song they make is just for me or something, i dont know, but it is sentimental for me. something really special. They continue to innovate, and for that I thank them for going off the path and doing something unique. This song is incredible, in fact, i wake up to it every morning, and listen to it before i go to sleep every night. give it a listen, you might find yourself inspired.
I would like to thank all of those who read my blog, its amazing to know that people are actually looking at it. I thank each and every one of you, from the bottom of my heart. Remember to compliment someone, you can make someones day by telling them that they kick ass. you can turn a mood from bad to good, from sad to happy. so i encourage you to do this, not only for yourself, because making others happy makes yourself happy, but it can make someones day. a little bit of kindness goes a long way.
I will see you people next time
Ciao :)
