A Little Bit Of Everything

Well, where do I start? I have given you a (somewhat) promising title, therefore I must deliver. I would usually say "I'll start at the beginning" but since my thoughts tend to be devoid of an obivious beginning, I fear I must start in the middle.

Yesterday, I went to Verity's 15th birthday party. Despite that fact that I dispise any sort of social gathering, I quite enjoyed myself (until I started feeling quite ill, then it sorta blew). There are a million and one photos on Facebook so I'm sure you'll see them.

Ever seen Kick-Ass? It finished about half an hour ago. It was really quite good. Los padres seem to think that it should be a 18 and not a 15, though. I'd have to say I agree to an extent.

I'm starting to plan a new story. And I determined to run with this one. It is about subjects that I am passionate about and harbour an enormous love and fascination with, so writing it shouldn't be a chore. Its working title: "The Lone Magician".

I finally have room for (almost) all of my books, since I brought a DVD shelf up here, which now houses my DVDs (hence the name), my CDs and my DS games.

The end of my post, and time for CSI:NY and some serious planning.

"Do you see, Arren, how an act is not, as young men think, like a rock that one picks up and throws, and it hits or misses, and that's the end of it. When the rock is liften the earth is lighter, the hand that bears it heavier. When it is thrown the circuits of the stars respond, and where it strikes or falls the universe is changed. On every act the balance of the whole depends. The wind and seas, the powers of water and earth and light, all that these do, and all that the beasts and green things do, is well done and rightly done. All these act within the Equilibrium. From the hurricane and the great whale's sounding to the fall of a dry leaf and the gnat's flight, all they do is done within the balance of the whole. But we, in so far as we have power over the world and over one another, we must learn to do what the lead and the whale and the wind do of their own nature. We must learn to keep the balance. Having intelligence, we must not act in ignorance. Having choice, we must not act without responsibility. Who am I - though I have the power to do it - to punish and reward, play with men's destinies?" SPARROWHAWK, "THE EARTHSEA TRILOGY: THE FARTHEST SHORE"
