I find myself amusing. I am strange, although I hate the cliche that surrounds labeling oneself as strange, and so I’ll say it here yet rarely in real life. I’ll leave that to others, since it is only in comparison that the identity of ‘normality’ or ‘strangeness’ is given. Anyway…
I saw an image of a girl I partly know and my response to contemplating this image was this: “Yes, she is an interesting looking creature”. No attraction, just dare I say ‘impartial’ observation. The fact I said this aloud along with the phrase itself amused me. The fact that I’m sharing this reveals a lot about me I just noticed. Mainly that I talk to myself, am some form of introvert and perhaps one would be inclined to judge me as egotistical, since here I am talking about myself- a lot. Well I’m by myself, it’s late, this is time to think, to exist as I am and thus here I am speaking about what may seem (and that is important-seem) to be nothing.
And oh yes, a final word of defense- (great there’s another topic- the need to defend ourselves)- I am alone right now for the most part, and there is no one to draw amusement from. I am thus left with myself. Is it so egotistical now, that statement I made at the beginning, that ‘I find myself amusing’? Understand the context, and first judgements prove to be corrected for the most part.

There is much, and I mean much that I would write upon here, on good old tumblr. Yet I forfeit many rights to my own work as soon as I click ‘create post’. I am not too keen on such an idea. I’ll save such writings for my book, or rather books. I could form my own site, my own blog elsewhere, but some yet not all ideas belong nowhere but on page.
Minds a buzzing blur;

17Sex
Sex is good, it’s very good. But I want to propose a question. Who values sex more? Catholics? Or Society?
I was hanging out with some good friends of mine earlier today. I’ve known them for a long time and they know how deep in my faith I am. Every…

Sadness floods a soul that loves.
4 Today a pair of buskers were strumming their acoustics and singing songs of Nirvana and Alice in Chains. He’s voice was good and proper, husky, gritty- a natural diamond- uncut and unpolished. It’s rare you hear that on the streets. It made my day.
2 Study me as much as you like, you will never know me, for I differ a hundred ways from what you see me to be. Put yourself behind my eyes, and see me as I see myself, for I have chosen to dwell in a place you cannot see.

What better occupation, really, than to spend the evening at the fireside with a book, with the wind beating on the windows and the lamp burning bright…Haven’t you ever happened to come across in a book some vague notion that you’ve had, some obscure idea that returns from afar and that seems to express completely your most subtle feelings?

i’d like someone to go to art galleries and museums with. i’d like someone to sit with and get lost in wonderful imaginary worlds through the pages of books. i’d like someone to have coffee with in cosy little cafes before the stress of lectures and tutorials starts each day. i’d like someone to…
I would like this very much, but not for the sake of an intimate relationship, purely just a friend who is this way inclined. Someone to discuss books with, philosophy with. Someone whose happy to have a coffee and just chill and talk. Someone to go to art galleries with and to be able to discuss the art work there beyond superficial understandings. I don’t believe in placing tooooo much emphasis on the Myer-briggs personalty tab, but INFJ I am and that characterizes me fairly well.
