gloomy.
the weather sucks. it's cold, slippery everywhere. the lightning is seriously getting to my nerves. and im sick of being trapped in places. it makes the simplest trip out even by cab troublesome. and i'm here, at sennett drive wishing i were somewhere else. missing someone. wonder if that person would know and take some time off to think of me.

feeling noob.
today... i went windsurfing... and i stumbled on a new activity. it's called looking like a retarded noob on a board. there was almost no wind, but it was high tide(thanks to the afternoon storm) and i kept felling off because the sea was so choppy. i finally got used to the different board i used today, and sudden short burst of wind actually felt good cause i managed to go further out by surfing out, not drifting out. then i realised i was too far out. i immediately dropped the rig. then i figured, since i took forever to try to surf back why don't i paddle cum swim back it might be faster. right. never trust my judgement. i drifted past the breakwater and further from the shore. buy then i was pretty content just sitting on the board just bobbing on the sea. then frustrated and really thirsty i got up, turned my board around and surfed back. yes, literally that simple. i felt really dumb. i struggled with swimming/paddling for half and hour, and surfing back took a minute. i learnt. learnt to ignore my stupid ideas from my head and listen to my body. my badly battered body of course, which i banged up on the board when i fell off and my weirdly hurting leg from i dunno what. i think i should consult munira on tips. i wish i'd outgrow this noob stage soon. real soon. (i apologise for the gargantuan mess of words. i suck at paragraphing. i might have to go for english school. but that's after my joke school that im attending with chris and marcus.)

...
jobs for everyone now. as for me i'm somehow really free and bumming around yet busy in a weird way. only thing to look forward to is my next windsurfing day(next wed!) now i know why munira enjoys it. you don;t think about anything else. seriously in your own realm where you have more control(mwahahaha) not that i am in control, for now. with more practise who knows? i might end up being on the side of the regulars, coming in every weekend to catch some wind. i love that feeling. when the wind fills your sail, it actually becomes so tangible to you that you won't believe it. to me, it's more real than many things in my life. you don't have to guess. the windsock(or old tattered flag thingy) tells it all. so i'm just looking forward to the day the entire process becomes a natural part of me. til then it's practise practise practise.
