There I Stood

So, that thing I wrote last time.. I decided that was a one time mood thing, so I guess I'm not going to be able to finish it right now. Maybe some other time. In other news, I have been learning sign language. As embarrased as I am to say it, I have been hooked onto another amazing show. What is it with me and shows, eh? And its partly Canadian I may add. It's called Sue Thomas:F.B.Eye. The main character of that show, Sue Thomas, is deaf. Erego(bad spelling sorry), she uses ASL(American Sign Language) and also, quite brilliantly, she has mastered the art of reading lips AND talking. She really is inspiring. Ever since I started watching this show, I was very intrigued by all the sign language. So I decided to start learning some. So far, I know most of the alphabets by heart, and I'm proud to say I can finger spell a lot! Although I am a little fuzzy on the J and the Z. I've also been learning some words and I must say, this is all very enlightening.
To add to that topic, this show has really got me thinking...about the future. I know, that sounds very frightening doesn't it? It actually is pretty scary. Like, how are you supposed to know what you want to do for the rest of your life? That's just insane. Although, I do think I want an exciting job. I couldn't ever spend every hour of every day in an office cooped up filling papers. That is just too... mundane, if you will. I want to be out there, doing something. Maybe journalism. Who knows? Gotta keep my options open though right?? Pshh, when does that ever happen? All I know is that it needs to be in the city. Or close enough so it wouldn't take me too long to get to the city. I have this thing for having tall, flashy buildings around me. Billboards all around. Theaters, parking meters, a huge mall(like the Eaton Centre) and just the freedom the city offers. I don't know... this is all really scary to think about. Maybe later.
Signing off,
