Heaven on Earth

It's so easy to comment on other people's blogs, but then it come to mine and I don't know what to say. And then I don't want to comment too much on the others because of some blogging jazz I don't know about. But really, who cares about that? Rules were meant to be broken. Just don't live your life off that idea. Don't let rules scare you. Especially social rules. They don't matter. If they are your friends, they will still be your friends. Who cares if you slurp or snort or get easily distracted? That doesn't really matter. So these will be my thoughts that hopefully won't be sanitized because they are something that is offensive and make me hated among all. Because it simply doesn't matter.

Some of us went down to see a movie in Victoria, but we were about an hour early, so we went to the mall. Mastered going up the down escalator. Vice versa is a bit more tricky. Played with some geek toys. Searched for Batman comics. And I saw a guy who I kind of know. He's in a couple of my classes. And if I could only get to know one new person well this year, I think it would be him. He is soo funny and quirky and it's pretty amazing in my mind. So that made me pretty happy.

But what really got more excited was a preview. For a sequel to one of the best movies ever. July 7th my friends. Then we can begin the search for the dead man's chest. Then we became immersed in the world of Marvel. It's pretty crazy there. Sometimes, after watching movies I've already seen, it feels like I've already done the stuff that I do after the movie. I guess maybe it's just so good that it captures my mind, and I sort of know what's coming, to it translates into real life afterwards for a minute or two. It wasn't like that after this movie. I hadn't seen this one before. This one just made me feel like I was invincible and could do anything. Not like anything anything, just stuff that I've wanted to do for a while, but haven't because I don't know how or I want to avoid awkwardness. Like getting to know that guy I mentioned before.

And more to look forward to, for me at least, starts right before Nanoose Bay Camp, and ends shortly after Nanoose's beginning. Some Lutheran conference in Alberta. I don't really care about the thing. It's more about the people who will be there. I haven't seen them for over two years now. Over one year at least. They are probably the reason why I think Pirates of the Caribbean was so great, And pretty much why I started playing bass. Definitely among the coolest kids I know, but they live of in Mill Bay and Surrey, so I never see them. Maybe I should just take small trips places, to see the friends of mine that reside not on the island but in B.C., just out of reach. Or learn to drive and go up-island for some of those kids. Guess there just isn't much reason for them all to come to Sidney.

Maybe I shouldn't stay in Sidney then. I can do pretty much anything, and I have one year to decide. Maybe I'll decide to chill around here more, but eventually I'll decide to leave. Well, actually, I've already decided that that is going to happen someday. One day I'll just leave for somewhere. Mostly what stops me is 'where would I go'. Well, I'm guessing that's what will stop me once I'm out of school, which is what's stopping me now. Or maybe I don't really want to go. That thing about having friends is there will always be goodbyes. The more friends, the more goodbyes. A comfort of being a Christian and having Christian friends is knowing that one day you will find them all again. That goodbye doesn't have to be forever. For all I know, there are people out there who I consider friends, who I will never see again. On earth anyways. But one day, we will meet again and prolly have some lame small talk conversation. That's okay though, because all conversations start somewhere. Heaven will be pretty grand. Sad thing about earth is that you'll never know when the last goodbye is. Maybe that's okay. Just wait till the reunion then.

Until then, we can make a heaven on earth.
