Because all you see is where else you could be...

Day 1566-

I've come to realize that the world is getting smaller everyday.

What I used to consider far away isn't so far anymore. When I was little, going to Lakewood felt like a trip around the world. Now I consider driving to other states on a whim.

What used to seem really abstract isn't so abstract anymore. When I was little, I didn't think about the fact that people wrote books. They were just there. Now my teacher gives me handouts on the best ways to get published.

I would say that no matter how far away from home you are, your brain tries to make you feel like home is as close as it has always been. So, the distance from CSU to my house has become equivalent to the distance from Columbine to my house. And every distance has gotten smaller in order to fit the proportions.

And the smaller proportions seem to make everything a lot easier to understand.


ok bye!

I don't even know what some of that meant.




I am SO excited for Death Cab on the 28th.
