Shiny Happy People Holding Hands...


I feel that I have lived my entire life in a cage, locked from the inside. I've always had the key, but was too fearful of what might lie beyond to use it. Confinement was safe, comfortable, predictable. Outside there was too many risks, the possibility of failure. Chaos. So I chose solitude, and lamented while the world turned away. I loathed myself for that.

I want to open the door. I want to escape. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I wrote that a while back. Rediscovered it in a notebook the other day. Not the slightest bit emo, eh? Not sure why I'm posting it, out of a desire to be more honest, more transparent, perhaps?

In more cheery news, things are good! I've finally finished reading Sense & Sensibility & Seamonsters, which was beyond awesome. Tis lame how long it too me to complete it though. I started reading a new book today. School is going well. I'm elated to see that a certain fellow blogger is progressing nicely.

I'll be updating my LibraryThing sometime soon.

ALSO: Eclipse was fantastic! Munich was incredibly depressing but also very good.
