resolution

I got an electric guitar last week. My first one. A beautiful, absolutely amazing, absolutely perfect black Fender Stratocaster. Like everything else in my life, I feel like I absolutely, have done nothing in my life to deserve it. But like everything else in my life, I will do everything I possibly can to convince myself otherwise. I resolve to respect and honour and cherish everything I am given the opportunity to do, because if I don't, then I definitely do not deserve to be doing it.

Things I think about at 3 in the morning...

So, I have a 10 page Buddhism paper due at 1:30. I like religion, it's nice, and it's like mythology. But my god all Buddhisms are the same. Things that are going through my mind:

1. Buddha Buddha Buddha Buddha Buddha pancake Buddha Buddha...
2. I want a greater vehicle.
3. Can you really convert to Islam by claiming that there is no god but god and that the prophet is his messenger?
4. That episode of Prison Break I watched at 2 o'clock was pretty good, but Prison Break always makes me sad.
5. There's a Virgin Mary shaped like a mountain sitting on my desk - why?
6. Buddha
7. I wish I could attain enlightenment by spilling a jug of water. And as the water mixes with the earth my conscience can gush forth and blend with all of reality.
8. That must be a shocking water spill.
9. Chapeau is a really cute name for the circumflex.
10. I want to float on a lotus.

Now it is time to stare at a piece of paper and try to read things that are written on it. Thankfully it's not in Urdu.
