Good Thing

I'm not quite sure what is happening but life seems to be pretty good right now. I have no much going on in my head and plans left, right and centre... whether they all come to fruition is another story. But my daydreaming is well and truly back on track!

Today seemed to go well but I'm not getting hopeful. I will just wait and see.

I've found another degree.... a combined one. Which means 10 years of part time study. I'm going to read through the information I printed off from the two universities that offer the degrees and work out the pros/cons.

I've nearly finished my creative project. It's not perfect, of course because I suck at maths and got my measurements wrong, but it's looking real good and I'm quite pleased with it. I think it's the biggest one I've made - the heaviest anyway.

I drove past an accident tonight. There I was ranting and raving in my car 'how f*king hard is it, what are you people doing?... as long as no-one is hurt"...... Yeah. As I get closer I see numerous police cars, at least 2 ambulances, fire trucks with lots of firemen. The paramedics get a stretcher out of the van....(I'm saying to myself 'oh that's not good, they've probably got neck injuries).... the next thing the stretcher is coming back to go in the back of the van and there's a white sheet over the body - all the way up. Dead. It was quite full on. It felt as if the opposite side of the road was silent. That even in the rain there was no sound. I did get a bit upset seeing it. I just thought 'someone was going home or just been out and now they're dead'. For some reason I thought it was a woman but I have no way of knowing. It's the 6th death on that stretch of road in at least 6 months. And they are all within 800 metres of each other. I'm sure more debate about the road will start after tonight. And to be honest, I love the road. It's long and for the most part it's straight and yeah, it's great to drive on and drive fast on. It's an 80 zone and it's a hot spot for young kids to drive really fast on. I admit I've driven at 100kph on it late at night not realising how fast I've been going. Do I condone that? No, but I'm just being honest. Given tonights weather conditions who knows what happened. I certainly couldn't tell. Someone is going to have to tell that persons family they are gone.

Why is it that when you get older you realise what is really important in life? Is it because I feel like I've reached the half way mark and there's so much more I want to do or should have done? I'm not old, but time just goes by doesn't it.
