I wanna ride on the wire
Cos nothing gets done with dust in your gun,
And nobody respects a liar
So goodbye for a while, I'm off to explore
Every boundary and every door
Yeah I'm going north
I wanna know where children would go,
If they never learnt to be cool
Cos nothing's achieved when pushed up a sleeve,
Till nobody thinks you're a fool
So goodbye for a while, I'm out to learn more
About who I really was before
Yeah I'm going North
Up where the hunted hide with ease,
Under the arms of eye-less trees,
Up where the answers fall like leaves,
Oh and your love is all I need...
Yeah I'm going North.
I'm leaving this town in less than a month. I'll be back, of course; I'm just spending the summer, like always, in a warmer climate. It shall be awesome.
Though this summer, more than ever, I almost find myself wishing I could stick around in this cold little city. Maybe it's because I'm closer to my friends ever before, or because I have a boyfriend who I will also be leaving behind. Or maybe it's because I'll be spending my eighteenth birthday up North. Which strikes me as a little strange... I won't be drinking around all my little cousins, or they'll decide they want to have some and all turn into alcoholic, spoilt little westies. This whole 'being the oldest' thing isn't the greatest at times.
Still, it'll be a great 3 weeks. I cannot wait to be out of the rain; to be able to swim, and to tan, and to act like a 10 year old and not care. And to eat a hell of a lot of Christmas food. Om nom nom, I'll regret it later, I can tell.
I'll end this post with a picture of my lovely little dog,
who just today confused a bowl of cherries with a lot of bouncy balls (her current obsession). Between balls, balloons, and food, this is one wreck of a dog. She's a bit cute though. :P
