I went to Divisoria this afternoon to buy a DVD boxset of Skins when I noticed that the city was empty. Well, not really empty in a deserted kind of way but the city was very peaceful and I really liked it and then I realized that people don't go out much on a Sunday do they? I mean, there weren't that many vehicles and I was walking not on the sidewalk but on the road sometimes. I loved that I had the chance to really look at what I'm not seeing when the streets are as crowded as New York(not that I've been to New York) and there they were, the invisible buildings, signs, posters, curbs and everything on the street that you fail notice. Its nice to explore the world but its much nicer to discover new things thats just in your own city. It was fun and very new to me. My eyes were delighted... though they would thank me more if I stopped having eye strains due to typing in the dark.
On my way home I remembered what my friend texted me before I left the house. She was sick and I invited her to watch a movie(Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince, what else?) when she replied that she was still sick and that she wasted four days at home. I realized that I have been wasting my time too and that I should go and explore new things before I die! I know, its really cheesy but life is too short to just fit in and be cool or aim for high grades! It maybe important to other peole but still, I always wondered what would I feel when I would be 55 years old and haven't got to see Niagra falls yet! The world is so big but my pocket is too small for it! Life is just unfair to poor people isn't it? If you can't go to places then why not do things? Like audition for something, scuba dive or just read a book you're not familiar with!
The important thing is to be happy and live a fulfilled life and to tell stories to your grandchildren. Right? Am I the only one realizing this? Life is an adventure, go explore! Use your imagination! Char!
