I am really sick of technology. And how sitting next to someone with a computer in your lap or a phone in your hand (and texting someone else) counts as socializing. I wish I lived in another time period where ignoring technology wouldn’t make me a social outcast, like it would today. I enjoy facebook and checking up on old friends and family, sharing pictures with people I dont see every day, and sending a nice word or two to a friend. But I am just sick of how blogs and social networking sites are the cause of many relationship problems. Not just for me but for many friends. It is so hard just to have a normal conversation.
I don’t want to leave Boston. I don’t want to have to drive if I want to go somewhere. I don’t want to have to be 5 hours away from my best friend. I don’t want to tell my mom I’m ’sleeping on the couch’. I’ve hated moving ever since I was 6, and this is no different. This is like going back in time, regressing to a period of my life that I hated.
Things I don’t want to do this summer: work, walk Lily every morning, be my mom and sister’s slave again, babysit for my mom, have to come home early, have to come home at all, see my ex(es), not see my friends
Things I want to do this summer: get as tan as I was in California, go to California, go to Newport Beach, go to Devareaux Beach, get a raspberry lime rickey, play at Perks and Starbucks, visit Meg and see my old house in Jersey, go to the Rainforest Cafe, go to Cinnabon, take Lily to the dog park, see Nine inch Nails and Janes Addiction
I CANNOT wait to give Corey his graduation present. This is the best idea I’ve ever had in my life. If all goes as planned I’ll be giving it to him Friday.
Goodbye, Boston.
You met me at a very strange time in my life.

I wish I could have lucid dreams every night. These are dreams in which you know you are dreaming and become conscious and unconscious at the same time, so you can spend your time dreaming by doing what you can’t in real life, like saying what you really mean, flying, and spending time with people you normally wouldn’t. I used to have lucid dreams a lot as a kid. Usually I would go into one when I was trying to wake myself up from a nightmare, and got caught somewhere in the middle. Gradually these dreams got rarer and rarer. My most recent lucid dream was a few weeks ago, after years without them. I was snuggled in my bed with someone I really love and gradually drifted off to sleep, not expecting it at all. It wasn’t all too interesting… I was just in a living room and suddenly realized I could control what I was doing instead of just watching and experiencing it like a regular dream.
One dream I had as a child was set in the most beautiful place I’ve ever seen. I can’t possibly describe it, but I know it exists somewhere in the world, and I don’t think I can honestly say I’ve lived my life completely until I find it.
