Music is a moral law. It gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness and a gaiety and life to everything. It is the essence of order and leads to all that is good, true and beautiful, of which it is the invisible but nevertheless dazzling, passionate and eternal form.
What we see before us is just one tiny part of the world. We get into the habit of thinking, this is the world, but that’s not true at all. The real world is a much darker and deeper place than this, and much of it is occupied by jellyfish and things.

I wish I was a hippie.
I made a decision that will change my life (hopefully for the better). After weeks of freaking out about going to, and getting into school for the fall…I un-registered myself. I was at Pioneer Pacific last week, and had a few conversations with people about what they did after highschool. Most of the people I talked to didn’t go to school right away. I think I need an adventure before I go to school. I dont know what I want to do with my life, and I dont want to pay for school, and then realize that I completely hate what I’m learning. I have a plan…sort of. I will work for one semester, and then travel for three weeks. Then I will come home, work until June, and then go up to Pioneer Pacific for the summer. This plan is likely to change, but for now I am taking comfort in the fact that it is a plan. One that I will follow, until something better arises.
I don’t know where I want to travel. At first I was thinking somewhere really exotic. But, Ive never been anywhere before (actually. Ive never been on a plane) so I think that I should ease myself into the world of backpacking. I’m thinking London. Why? Because it’s an easy city to get lost in. I can just wander for hours. Its also within range of other amazing places. ex. Scotland. Also, I know people that I can stay with there. Also…people speak English. That will be helpful. If you have any ideas on where I should go, let me know.
Hopefully this will change my life positively
