It could be seen that i am hugely hypercritical.
I have an endless passion for music, yet i do not play an instrument.
I enjoy fashion, yet i do not care enough or have the patience to practice it.
I have a fascination for knowledge and history, yet i never listened when i had the chance - therefore now i try and catch up. However, i struggle to just read knowledge, i like to see it to learn it.
I love to write and read poetry, yet i get lazy, loose inspiration and think everything i write is then crap.
Photography and Art, i practice. Photography more so - subconsciously most probably because it is the easy option, less time consuming and not testing my invalid patience.
I initially was going to start this Blog just before i went travelling, which is to come in October, so that my family and friends can see where i am at, if i’m alive and what strange cults i may have been brainwashed to join. However, i wanted the chance to follow the music blogs and then decided we might as well capture the journey from start to finish.
I am about to finish school, i have one exam left and c/w deadlines but on June 15th i will be done. I have never enjoyed school. I did’t hate it, i just didn’t enjoy it. I was confrontational in my younger years leading to me being ‘hard work’ and once ‘malicious.’ Simply because i had an opinion and lots of people did not/do not. They go by the book and agree. Which at school i agree is a clever logic as you should ‘respect’ the teachers and their authority, it was just sometimes their thrill to endure a power trip whenever possible instead of having real passion for their subject irritated me, leading to me rebel. I think the majority of the teachers at my school have little to no passion for their subject, therefore how are we supposed to have passion and enthusiasm?
Anyway. I will finish and then start my summer job. O yeah, i live in Jersey, a little island in the English Channel between France and England, it is 9/5 miles, beautiful. and claustrophobic. You will hear about it more sometime i am sure. The reason i mentioned it now is because my summer job is working on the beach as a Surf Instructor, it is a rewarding, tiring and a pretty perfect summer job. You’ll get the jist of it when i start and i can show pictures.
I will then begin my travels in Costa Rica where i will go explore, surf and learn spanish for a few weeks before getting carted off to some local village to teach english and help for a month. I will then transfer to the rainforest/beach and do a month of environmental work… From there the plan is Melbourne to live with a best friend of mine, Carmen, you will also hear more about her, teach surfing or work in a bar, get some money somehow someway. Untill i jet to Indo, to surf my heart out in the cheap perfection of Sumbawa and Bali. I hope to then be typical and live it up in Thailand and hopefully depending on funds explore as much of Asia as i can.
Keeping it spontaneous.
