Today
Thursday, May 31, 2007 4:12:41 PM
This morning, I did not fall asleep again between 6.00 and 6.30, and stay asleep until my taxi driver called me. Today, I SAT upright in my bed, from 6.10 to 6.39 (that's when he called me) thinking about life, love, the universe, everything, and how I really should learn to keep my mouth shut sometimes. So, when he called, I automatically looked at the time on my cell, and I said: "Hei. Å! Er klokka så mye allerede? Jeg er der veldig snart. Hadet!" and proceeded to pick up six literature study books, a novel, one Mac and it's charger, and hurry downstairs, where my backpack was by miraculous ways almost empty and not far away from the door. AND it had another novel in it! Things could only get worse, as everything was so perfect.
So: hurry-out-door-charger-in-one-hand-umbrella-in-the-other-get-into-car-waiting, zoooom... One thing I forgot to keep in my hand, AND forgot to pick up again on my way downstairs, was my cellphone. So I've got no means of communication today except form the MacBook. I think I'll be able to make it through the day...
...............................................................................................................
And I did! The day went fine, though I found myself wondering more often what time it was.... Now, about the other part of today: The school had turned off the heating system, so the whole school went around shivering. I feel so sorry for the poor souls who had to SIT STILL the whole time, writing Nynorsk Exam..... I'm glad I was allowed to jump around a bit.
There is a song, most known from John DENVER, but originally words and music are by Randy Sparks. Will have to get that version. I like the ¿second¿ verse, - I can't be contented ect.
Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today
Ill be a dandy, and Ill be a rover
Youll know who I am by the songs that I sing
Ill feast at your table, Ill sleep in your clover
Who cares what the morrow shall bring
Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today
I cant be contented with yesterdays glory
I cant live on promises winter to spring
Today is my moment, now is my story
Ill laugh and Ill cry and Ill sing
Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today
Today, while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, Today
