my life is changing at the fucking speed of light, I wish I could live it and watch it go by at the same time. Every day is so very fucking beautiful, despite everything, it's almost too much too take. I think I can't be too permanent, because I just love everyone, everything so much. Is that possible? I don't know. Maybe I'm nuts, but it all thrills me, all of it, all of them. It could be so much better, but even as it is, all the time everything around me and around you too is amazing, see for yourself.

to be making my reading list for the year, and even though I'm sure it's going to grow, it's long as it is! I do have to thank the 1001 List of Books You Must Read Before You Die. I go to the bookstore for one or two new ones, and I have no damn idea where to begin :D

This is amazing. I have never seen a more brilliant thing, ok well yes, I have but this comes in at a close second.

because I discovered the "Random Idea!" option on Idealist :D
When you're bored and have nothing better to do, this is an amazing site, that absolutely blew my mind, at first glance. I'm obsessed, I mean it, if you do swing by, you who are not reading this search for the "Matchstick Garden". Pure genius.
