sometimes reality has a way of sneaking up and biting us in the ass. And when the dam bursts, all you can do is swim. The world of pretend is a cage, not a cocoon. We can only lie to ourselves for so long. We are tired, we are scared, denying it doesn't change the truth. Sooner or later we have to put aside our denial and face the world. Head on, guns blazing. De Nile. It's not just a river in Egypt, it's a freakin' ocean. So how do you keep from drowning in it?

i can finally say that its over.
no more sitting at a pathetic desk bent over in concentration scribbling furiously away
no more nagging feeling of incompleted work and upcoming papers at the back of my mind
no more late nights as i try frantically to squeeze whatever little piece of information i can into my already oversaturated and puny little brain.
its the end.
its over.
schools out.
say hello to the summer holidays.

ironical since its raining cats and dogs everyday on the streets.

i have chosen now.
