Here I am, in Paris.
Thursday, April 3, 2003
Here I am, in Paris. In the end I left London only this morning (it's a long story, but it's mostly due to me being very thick), and ended up in a carriage full of 8 years-old. How nice.
I am so tired that I just got high on a cigarette... *lol*
Anyway, I was looking at those kids in the train (I am a real observer - I love to look at people and try to understand what they think - they probably think I am mad, but well) and I started to think... When did I go from the status of a careless, happy child like to what I am now? I have opinions, my own life without my family around, I am complicated, often depressed (without any apparent reason), I need love, I need my friends and... I am a real person. I don't know if I can say that I am an adult, but I am not a child anymore. I am a person, an entity, different from everyone else and who can think with her own head... It's a bit scary. Actually, very scary.
What else? Oh yeah, I started sobbing earlier on because my mum moved my clothes to the back of the wardrobe. I don't feel like this is really my home anymore, and at the same time I cannot consider my room in London like my home because I am going to leave in a couple of months. Maybe the flat I am going to get next year with Sophie and Kirsty will be my home?
I cannot believe that just a year ago I spent all my days in this room. It's... Different now. It's not "mine", because I am here only for a couple of days every month.
I am losing every root I have, and I don't know whether it's a good thing or not.

Version

Because a picture is worth a thousand words, and I cannot describe my life better than a picture can.
And because my heaven is here, I'll wrap the world around it and live in a cocoon. Quoting from a favourite song, 'Letting the cables sleep' by Bush, in its incarnation as a remix. And I do wish the friend who introduced me to the song was here to see the way things turned out.
The photos used on this site were all taken by me and can be found on my Flickr account.
