Dream on

There's something about this song. I've always felt an emotional response from it. Maybe because it's about moving on from the past. I think everyone can relate to that. Even when I first heard this song as a teenager I related to this song. And I can't quite explain why. The funny thing though is there isn't a particular line that sticks out me. A lot times with a song that I respond to there's a particular line that sticks out in my mind. But in this this particular case there's no one line that inspires me. Perhaps it's just message of moving on and forgeting about yesterday that inspires me.

Completely Off the Wall

I know that haven't blogged here in ages. I could lie and say it's because life's been too hectic. But like I said that would be a lie. To be quite honest I'm not sure why I haven't been blogging. I could also lie and say that it's because I don't have anything to write about. But that would be yet another lie. After all I am the chick that can write a whole blog dedicated to the crashing waves. And yes I do still work here over at the edge of brooklyn on Kingsboro's campus. Why have I suddenly stopped blogging about the ocean? Yet again I'm just not really sure. I guess I don't have that many answers. They say the teenage years are the years of unanswered questions. But it seems for me the late twenties are too. And it seems that the questions are well a lot harder. At least for me. And no that's not a Pink Floyd reference in the title. Haven't you figured out yet that other than one or two songs I'm not a fan.

The Looking Glass

It seems lately liked I've walked into bizarro world. Do remember the episode on Seinfeld where Elaine met a group of friends that everyone was the exact opposite of Jerry, George and Krammer? No I didn't meet a group of friends that were the exact opposite of some I already had. But it seems like lately the world around me as well turned sorta upside down, kinda like the scene in Alice in Wonderland when the whole house turned backwards. And I didn't eat any strange mushrooms. Yes, I know what your next question is I didn't take any funny pills, especially any that supposely make me bigger or smaller. I'll give you a minute or two for the mandatory short joke you'll make to yourself. Where was I before I took a trip through the looking glass. I want to leave before Twiddle Dee and Twiddle Dumb show up. Not to mention I doubt the Queen of Hearts would be much fun either. Oh I remember now Bizarro World, and how everything seems upside down. I think everyone has had a time in their lives where they can relate to that. What exactly is upside down you ask? Let's just say nothing makes any sense and sometimes lately it feels like I accidently walked onto a movie set.

Perplexing Thoughts...

I just realized how long it's been since I've blogged. It's kinda funny for so long I had been blogging so much and now suddenly it's been over a week since I've written a blog. Not even one on the sparkling water, and I've even seen my friends the swans. Needless to say I'm a little surprised by my sudden lack of inspiration. For months on end I was writing about the shiny sparkling water, and now when I look at it, well, I'm just not inspired to write. I look at the water and simply no words come to my mind. It was like something suddenly snapped and the water just didn't inspire me anymore. To be honest I'm a little disturbed because I'm not quite sure why. Right now when I look at the water all I feel is well, frustration. In some ways it's as if the water is a person or something like that and we got into this bad fight. Everytime I see the water for the last week or two I walk off in a huff. And I can't understand why, maybe perhaps it's something symbolic or something.

The Right Direction is everything

Forest Gump said life is like a box chocolates, you never know what you are gonna get. Nowadays the russel stover boxes come with these cute little maps so you can know which one you are getting. But have you ever accidently turned the box backwards so the map is completely wrong. Or even worse yet accidently pushed a chocolate over when you removed one so everything becomes completely off. It can be very frustrating when you think you think you are getting a raspberry truffle and when you bite in you realize its a buttercream. And when that happens I would prefer not having the map at all. Because there's nothing more bothersome then realizing that you have a map of what you want, but the only problem is that you have it pointed in the wrong direction.
