I'm quickly calmed by thought provoking activities.
Last night I was feeling frustrated, confused, regretful, nostalgic, and loads of other emotions. So at around 12 or 1 AM I chose one of my favorite journals. A mustard colored leather journal, decorated with fading pictures of type writers, ink blots, letters and numbers. It was a present from a close friend. I made some Ramen soup, grabbed my smoothest pen and got to writing. I didn’t stop until I had successfully summarized the past 2 weeks. I felt a tremendous weight lifted off my shoulders.
Yet, I still wasn’t ready to head to bed. So I grabbed my ipod and started searching for peaceful songs. Then I stumbled on the Across the Universe soundtrack. After listening to a few of songs I began to understand why the Beatle’s are so amazing. Their music is incredible, but this version is even more crisp and gut wrenching. Jim Sturgess especially…wow. Hopefully I can watch this movie before school starts again.
