OBLADI-OBLADA-LALALA-LIFE GOES ON

And so it does. Thats the thing about life, whatever happens , no matter how shitty/great it gets, it never stops. Right now, in the past few months life has been very very turbulent for me, just general upheavals of all sorts. Things moving around, new people,new places, its all so exciting and all so tiring at the same time. There comes a point when you just want to scream "STOP!!!!", and then everything around you just freezes, like in the movies, then you want to fast forward till you get to a nice part where you find yourself in your second year of law school, on vacation, sitting on a hammock in Fiji drinking beer...erm ..... lemonade, and reading a book, whilst the tropical breeze rustles the coconut palms, and cute australian tourists run around in their board shorts and flip flops.
Ah......sigh,to die,nay to sleep, for in that sleep what dreams may come..something, something.God I'm paraphrasing Shakespeare.
But basically so far, law school = good, life = looking up, me= a little tired, a little wary. I miss my friends a lot, don't really miss home, nothing to miss I guess. It's a wierd feeling, I'm like a drifter, no where really to go back too, only looking forward.
Man I'm just going nowhere with this post, random ramblings. Shooby,dooby,dooby, dooop.I feel old all of a sudden, like I've been trying to live for way too long, and the struggle is all but squishing me into a lump of Bimla's Chutney.( Good for health yah!). I got a package today, from home a book and a CD that I'd conveniently left behind, and my name was printed on it, and below the law school, and I was just like Wow...Thats my address, this means I actually went somewhere,I actually did something with my life( alert: premature elation. wouldnt put it past myself to screw things up)Heh heh, who woulda thunk it?
This morning was so bloody beautiful, my alarm clock rang at like 6 and as I got up and looked out the window , I saw that it was POURING. It was so pretty, the rain was so heavy that you couldn't see too far, and everything was kind of suffused in this gray mist, the fields, the trees, wished I'd had my camera. But then I remembered that it was monday, and I though oh crap, they can't ACTUALLY expect us to get up and go to class, can they? But they did, and I did, and there once again life trundled on, I sludge trudged my way back and forth, and now I can't wait to go back to my room, and stare out of the window happily, till I remember that I have laundry to do....Oh crap I have laundry to do.
Oh today, I suddenly discovered that if I want hot water, I have to turn on a switch!!! OHMYGOD. All this time I've been freezing away and trying to convinve myself that cold showers build character ( Calvin and Hobbes), and there's a freakin switch!!!!!Now I know! The other day I also found that there's a water cooler right on my floor, so I don't have to got all the way down when I want cold water to drink.Damn, I really don't know what world I've been living in lately. I'm going to go back home and Clousseau my way around the whole place just to see if I've missed out any other important details.
Ok I'm off now, must wash clothes. Obladi,oblada, lalalala life goes on.( Ok I know thats not how The Beatles sang it, but I can't remember the words now)
