I’m running through life faster than I can run in my imagination….
Where are these days going? Death and Resurrection, up and down, your place or mine? Right and wrong and both. Exhilarating and utter head spinning confusion…
Meitheal was a beautiful escape from reality as always. Kathryn and I worked with the Borris boys. I was more distracted than I have ever been but still...
On the road again...
I’m taking the bus from Dublin to Cavan. This is a route I’ve never taken before and I’m excited about it.. I remember going to Trim when I was very young to visit cousins which now like in Offally and I’ve never been in Navan but I think Helens going to take me shopping there during teaching practice… I like new places a lot. Even parts of Dublin I have not seen,...
I am 20 years old now.
wow i’ve come a long way.
no more teenage angst now right?
(haha)
SO…. Im back at the lake. Christmas was quick and relatively painless if you exclude the first week leading up to Christmas eve. It was fantastic to see my friends. It was lovely to feel the comforts of home like roast chicken dinners and being able to get up and leave your dishes knowing that...

English looks like a really romantic thing to study, but it’s not. English is mostly bollocks because no right or wrong answer exists, it’s all just the ideas of the current time. Poetry and Literature are lovely but it’s not so nice to dissect them.
I guess you are right and yes studying English probably...

I worry lately if I made the right decision.
I’m questioning decisions I once clarified to be the only decisions I ‘knew’ were the ‘right’ ones.
Maybe I dont want to teach home economics.
Maybe I dont want to teach at all.
Sometimes I wish I’d studied english. I can imagine myself in a big university… reading and having deep conversations with all...
Opportunity cost.
physics labs VS anything else

Why is it that it is so difficult to tell the difference between what we do for our own happiness and what we do for others?
procrastinating from cleaning my room…. the wind was so vicious last night I barely slept. I had an eye test today so my contacts are on their way and im now 50% complete on my steps to getting my driving permit. Today was my first day off after 7 days working so I went to Dublin and spent all the money I worked last week earning.
It was great to spend some me time. Im almost finished my...

I woke up one morning in a room that wasn’t my own, and I couldn’t remember how I got there. The walls were white, and gleaming, and the bed was comfortable. It took me a few minutes to panic.
I searched for doors, and found none. The same went for windows, hatches, vents, and tunnels. I began to…

I am busy busy as per usual holidays from school mean all work and all play and totally wearing myself out but as people say some things never change and my schedule is one of them.
Its these days I spend what little free time I have googling pictures of freedom and listening to songs written by people I classify as ‘free’ and dreaming of being ‘free’ all while the clock...

My mother hasnt spoken to me in two days because I refused to comment on whether my brother talks to my dad the same way he talks to her.
My plea for a christmas peace was strongly rejected.
Happy Christmas to me.
I’m in one of those moods where I want to be stupid and careless and stay up all night watching pointless tv shows. I know it’s a bad idea because I gotta work an 8 hour shift starting at 11 but then again i’m only a teenager for another two weeks so might as well make the most of it.
My family are constantly fighting and I hate it. I have too much anger and upset to put down in...
On the bus to Dublin (again). I feel like I spend so much time travelling back and forth to Sligo. My body and mind now assume travel time to be sleep time out of habit and I find myself yawning and dozing off dispite the unreal sleep I had last night. I cleaned my room properly, finished my packing and Amee stayed and let me be baby spoon as always :). Things feel a little strange lately. Kim...
Things.
There are lots of things going on.
For a start, I have brown hair now. It took two goes of dying to get it a decent colour. Yes I am nostalgic for my blonde…. but I like my dark hair too.
Myself and Anne went to Neven Maguires resteraunt in blacklion on tuesday. Her parents won a competition with the farmers journal and we got to go in their place. It was an unbelievable experience. I will...

'Stage seven'
Its becoming more and more topical now.. I am fighting within myself and struggling to find my own feeling on the matter. My gut reaction is telling me do it but there’s that fear of the consequence and all that could go wrong. I guess we’ll find out soon enough what choice I make and if it will be the right one. Let’s hope it is.
I needed to go out tonight. I cannot explain it, it is a need for escape from reality and cravings for an ice cold vodka and redbull, house music and letting go.
So this is what I did. I pieced together my assignment, I threw on my pumps and I hit pure like I was born to dance. I threw my hands up in the air and did not let go of the freedom it gave to me. I became immersed in the repetition of...
I am angry at myself for neglecting the ones I love and the ones that love me most.
:(
Changes
I have not talked to Joy in a long time. I was campaigning via facebook promoting tellyourtd.com when a chat sparked between us and I let myself become immersed in her life for a few minutes.
We are each so different now. Its hard to believe that the people we are now used to once draw hearts on our grey skirts in after school study, colour all over joys bedroom walls and drink wkd on the way to...
Yesterday afternoon we were lying on my bed and I was silently trying to decide whether it would be appropriate to kiss you or not and you asked me to suggest something I thought was fun to do.
I am still trying to think of something I would consider ‘fun’ to do, besides just spending time with other people, which of course we were already doing so I couldn’t exactly suggest...
