We’ll show our souls in the colloquial,
Our hearts are chalked on black,
Our feelings known to one-and-all
And our awkward carved in wax
We can cut and paste and draw and choose
Our insides and our selves,
But when it comes down to it,
Are we all still with the same friends?
Theory A: We find somebody that evolves at the same rate as we do, who sings in the right colour and who draws in the right language. Y’know that acquaintance is a beautiful thing.

Hey, does anyone remember the time Eamon went on a date with his mam in ‘06?
Just sayin’, it was AWESOME.

Hey. I know I could’ve sotally programmo texted or said this t’you or whatever. But writing’s nice! Kinda…
Also, bear with me but I kinda need to be a bit of a faggot for this. To get the point across, obvo!
You will totally, totally make it.
Like, I know that you feel there isn’t enough time, that you could be four different people at any given moment in the future. This is true! But another truth is that you will definitely, definitely, definitely always be thinking the exact same thing. There’ll always be interviews, auditions, competitions, conversations, decisions and total failures you’ll regret. There is absolutely nothing you can do but go with it, accept what makes you happy and change what you don’t!
Not to say that you can’t trust life, or have some faith! Or change completely. You know my philosophy is that the absolute best things happen on a regular basis! Every day, really. You just have to really look for them sometimes.
Oh, another thing we have in common- neither of us will really acheive our dreams.. Not every one of them, anyway. You and I dream far, far, far too much for that! Dreams are overrated, anyway. I know that when I was younger, I never ever ever dreamed of stealing my best friend’s every possession, sleeping on trains or wearing purple dresses, but they’ve been the absolute best things in the history of ever.
So it’s not the goals, it’s not all what you set out to learn but really it’s all about what you’re forced to learn by accident. That’s what sticks forever!
But maybe ’sticks forever’- as in, sticks-and-stones, does more harm than good here. You can lay down what you want your life to be, but always remember that the ability to accept exception is always going to come in handy.
This isn’t a goodbye speech, nothing of the kind. Just a little reassurance that we know that we know changes are coming up fast, but you can always rely on whatever your life’s constants prove themselves to be.
So enjoy yourself, and do the things that matter! You know there isn’t time and space to do it all. Love the things you try, go drink a girl drink (I’m the guy)! Try to laugh it off if you should fall. Set free whatever you want, cause if you think about it you’ve got all the time in your world to do these things. And always remember, that the time of your life should actually turn out to be the time of your life!
And should you need me, you have my word.
Desmond, I’ll be your constant.

It totally figures that a magnifying glass would help me look over the little things in my life. The walk was nothing like I thought it’d be and everything I needed it to be. This is definitely freedom, and the perfect excercise.
Go take a walk, like every day. You’d be amazed who you run into.
Bear in mind! These were written in Starbucks where I also slept a bit.
1.
Even fat swans
could never forgive this:
A frightening creature emerges,
made of or mess of
pulp and print.
I will never again take the bus with you, honey,
’cause you’re the worst person I know at origami.
2.
One, two, maybe technically three
And you still can’t make any origami.
Just there on the bus, you had me in awe
I stopped and I stared-
You proved my hypothesis flawed.
That now, for sure, your number of hip Asian friends
Is not related to how well you make paper bend.
3.
I promised a million,
Got tired at three.
Alan, you’re crap at origami.

My head is impossibly sore at the moment. I have the flu. Yeah, ‘the’ flu. Do not want.
Okay okay- I didn’t expect to be affected by the JC results. But I’m still feeling it. I know I did well, I know I had a hard time with alot of things but it’s just that it’s the way I am. I will always be hitting myself and hating myself because 4 a’s is a number you can say out loud to all the superkids.
However!
I’ve got a friend-it feels like a trick up my sleeve. Even though it’s not, I feel like talking to them is my little secret or something and it’s actually so fun that I have no idea how I’d have gone back without them!
Physics, geography, none of thats really important. What is is that I like what you write and you get what I write and we write together. That counts, I promise.

8 subjects- 4 science, 4 language.
4 bomz- 3 lads, 1 girl.
If destiny’s kind, it should be epic. Well and truly, man.
So far, I’ve been drawing a blank on what I think of it… Mainly because it’s beginning an end and sooo different. Scared- possibly. Y’know, just a bit nervous that I won’t live up to what I can do. Actually, I don’t even know what it is I can do. But we’ll have to find that out for real this year.
But just- I do alot of thinking, already blogged about it but it has to be said again. I have the best friends ever. Srsly guys.
Alot has happened over the past year, but now we’ve got to take our protein pills and put our helmets on.
Check ignition- and may god’s love be with you.
(Best of luck, everybody- we may need it, hopefully not though.)

Waiting for love? As if.
Warm and fuzzy? Maybe.
Perfect end to a bitchin summer? Check.
Well, let’s have a look at this now…
…And I told you it’d be worth it!

It’s just like, a shimmy and a shake, man. It’s working out.
…Albeit awkwardly.
I sat on a wall and decided to take a fucking chance. Came out of it still not really knowing what went down, but I am just so looking forward to seeing how it pans out.
Til then, beidh sceitiminí áthas san aer i ngach uile áit.
Just how I like it.

I’m pretty sure that I get annoying to my friends, clingy or something. Chances are, y’know yerself. But here. Listen.
I love to worry so so so much. And I love all of ye an incredible amount. I dunno how many people know just how much sleep I lose over thinking about them, wondering how they’re doing, missing them even when I’ve just seen them a couple of days ago.
But if you know me, if you’re my friend, if you feel like nobody’s noticed you’ve been away, nobody’s around… I’m always here. And I’m always thinking about each and every one of ye! I always hope you get home safe and I always hope that you’re having fun. If you haven’t seen me in a few months, and all I can seem to make is small talk then don’t think I’ve forgotten. Cause when I’m close with a person I’ll feel that close for a very, very long time.
And as many will testify- you can’t lose me easily.
Stay safe, won’t ye? All of ye. And stay happy. Cause if you’re not, I’ll find you. I promise.
(Just let me know if you’re in the deep shit. I will fucking sprint.)
