You know, I really hate being serious. I hate drama and tragedy and emoness in general. But I suppose that that’s the way the world works. With silly little people complaining about their silly little problems, and with all the big problems being ignored because the people who should be complaining about them are already dead. Dead. Death is taken to lightly now. I blame people like me. I also blame television and the media in general. Sometimes, I begin to really wonder when exactly we started falling.

But anyway.

2005. Reminds me of James Bond for some reason. A year of intrigue and mystery. Or whatever. (Change it like you change one in the Matrix and you get his codename. So sue me, I’ve spent my holidays on conspiracy websites.)When I look back I realized that I made a lot a lot a lot a lot of mistakes. But I also realized I sure as hell enjoyed the ride. While other people were growing and learning important stuff, all I’ve done is awoken from a sleep. But I’m still dreaming. It seems unfair to everyone else that I’m the only one who got this deal. Because I also realized that we’re living on borrowed time. Only, you can’t borrow time, so we’re living on nothing at all (Time doesn’t exist by the way). I mean, I could die in twenty seconds from a lightning strike. Or I could go out with a bang in seventy years time when the earth implodes (That’s right the earth implodes in seventy years time exactly. Course, since time doesn’t exist…)

I’ve thought about a lot of things. I’ve spent my fair share of sleepless nights well. I’ve spent my days on forums and on graphic novels. I’ve learnt stuff and I’ve forgotten stuff. I’ve forgotten more stuff than I’ve learnt. But most of all, I wasted time. I wasted a lot of time which I should have spent mugging. I should have been studying for the hell that is IB life. Lots of people have warned me. But I didn’t listen. Mainly because I’m still dreaming and I’m lazy. Are they the same thing?

Okay. What was I saying?

Nothing.

BACK TO THE POINT.

I was trying to break down ol’ 2005 in this post. I couldn’t. There are just too many memories and too many dreams. Or possibilities. Or whatever. Basically, all I know is that 2005 rocked out loud. Yeah. Jammin’. Peace. Also, I need to say, more to reassure myself than anything else, that 2006 has ‘nothing on me’, as they say. I shouldn’t worry. I remember a verse that speaks of birds in the fields. Or something along those lines. AH GOT IT NOW. If God took me this far, he isn’t going to abandon me now. He got me into ACS. Both ACS. The IB program. So I don’t have anything to worry about. Really, I don’t. Wait that doesn’t sound to convincing. Need to work on that. But I know that 2006 is going to be okay for me. That’s a good thing.

Yaargh.


Really beginning to get emo isn’t I? That’s a bad thing, because as I have illustrated, I have always hated that characteristic.

But today isn’t the time to talk about it , is it? Today is a time to celebrate the New Year and stop worrying. Take it away Bob…


Don't Worry, Be Happy Lyrics

(whistling)
Here's a little song i wrote,
you might want to sing it note for note,
don't worry, be happy

in every life we have some trouble,
when you worry you make it double
don't worry, be happy

dont worry be happy now
dont worry be happy
dont worry be happy
dont worry be happy
dont worry be happy
aint got no place to lay your head,
somebody came and took your bed,
don't worry, be happy

the landlord say your rent is late,
he may have to litagate,
dont worry (small laugh) be happy,

look at me im happy,
don't worry, be happy

i give you my phone number,
when your worried, call me,
i make you happy

don't worry, be happy

aint got no cash, aint got no style,
aint got no gal to make you smile
but don't worry, be happy

cos when you worry, your face will frown,
and that will bring everybody down,
so don't worry, be happy

don't worry, be happy now...

don't worry, be happy
don't worry, be happy
don't worry, be happy
don't worry, be happy

now there this song i wrote
i hope you you learned it note for note
like good little children

dont worry be happy

listen to what i say
in your life expect some trouble
when you worry you make it double
dont worry be happy
be happy now

dont worry, be happy
dont worry, be happy
dont worry, be happy
dont worry, be happy
dont worry
dont worry be happy
don't worry, don't worry, don't do it,
be happy,put a smile on your face,
don't bring everybody down like this

don't worry, it will soon pass whatever it is,
don't worry, be happy,
i'm not worried




im not worried.
