Nothing Ever Gets Done, Not Even If You're Twenty One

As much as I wanted to write this on my 21st birthday on 29 January, I'm writing it right now.
Reason: My PC is acting crazy again. Sometimes it needs to restart a few times to actually work.

Nothing Ever Gets Done, Not Even If You're Twenty One

Having lived for more then 2 decades on this earth, you do expect one to have learned enough to be what they would call a "grown-up". Or that's what they say, 21 means 'official grown-up'. What about 18? That's just a big lie to ease the teenagerkids. No, 21 is the real deal.

So a big celebration for this 'birthday of birthdays' wouldn't be misplaced eh?
Well I guess it would be cool, but as of now I'm not feeling to celebrate it. Birthdays were always a special day for me, for anyone I guess. I remembered when I was little I always got excited and all hyped up for this day at the end of January. Excited for the next day to treat all your classmates at primary school on chips and to 'make the round' in school to the different classes to treat the teachers with delicious' chocolats.
And then, after school, it was party time! Invite all your friends to your house, eat birthday cake, play games, watch TV, eat some more chips, drink soda, kick balloons, sing Happy Birthday, take pictures, go to McDonalds, recieve gifts. Yeah, those were some fun times when you're young. Although ofcourse, people are still doing this no matter what age. But for me as time passed on, I did less and less with my birthday. I still had given parties in high school, but that stopped when I was 15. A birthday cake with candles on it is still a must, but inviting people and all that, no, didn't did that anymore. It's not a bad thing though as you may think. It's just the way it is. Didn't had the need.

So times goes on, and last thursday my 21st birthday: It was as if it was just like any other day!
Just did the usual. Went to Japanese Course like every thursday, but(!!) I did bring along sushi my aunt made to treat everyone. So yeah, I think I did do something with it though. Oh and ofcourse, I had the birthday cake with candle earlier that day. And some photos ofcourse!! That's a must too, for memories-purposes.

To Be Or Not To Be

"So 21 huh? I guess I should act like a grown-up now?

But wouldn't it be better to just act like myself...?"

-"Act? Why not 'be' yourself?"

"It's hard to 'be'..."

-"Well you are or you are not. It's that simple."

"I guess I am...No I know I am."

-"Then just be it!!"

"But even if I am, not anybody will know"

-"If you just are who you are and 'let it be' then it will be."

So many new years resolutions and I haven't even accomplished them yet! And already one month has passed. Oh well, I guess we start tomorrow again. Cause I'm going back to school again (again! and again!)
How many times have I gone "back to school" again.

Nothing Ever Gets Done, Not Even If You're Twenty One

Many many things to do in the upcoming time: University (getting used to it again will take some time.)
Reading books, JPN classes, work, basketball, guitar again, music, film, writing on here, planning for Japan'09, more reading, college, college, more college, almost forgot chinese school, eating, drinking, sleeping, waking up early, sleeping early, gaming!, talking, walking, running, striving.
and anything else I forgot to say.

There's definitaly a spirit of "Whatever" on here.

Nothing Ever Gets Done, Not Even If You're Twenty One...
Whatever, As long as you have fun, and you're not on the run, then everything will be done, my son.

Or whatever you want to believe.

Be True A Heart.

Peace.
