i've just registered to take my basic theory test. on the 23rd of January!
i'm one step closer to my ultimate aim of staying out til 1am every night, which will only be possible if i can drive. and if i have a car.
my eyes today are like little slits. tiny and... tiny. i have no idea why.
if i slept at 230am last night and got up at 10am this morning, i should have about 7 and a half hours of sleep.
which should be enough!
bleah i hate bad-eye-days.
i always get these slitty eyes on days when i can't afford to and have to actually look fairly decent.
looks like it's time to invest in a good tube of liquid eyeliner.
to make my eyes seem bigger especially on bad-eye-days.
i was clearing up my room yesterday when i found a poem from first 3 months lit class.
i liked it a lot then and lost it, and it only resurfaced yesterday!
How I do love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, - I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! - and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
a sonnet by Elizabeth Barrett Browning.
i think i like it cos of the opening line. i seem to have heard it somewhere before.
...sometimes, i think it's much better to keep your mouth shut and your hands to yourself.
of course, that's what my mom always said. except that what our parents say often go unheeded until..
just until.
