Rubbish and other fairy tales. Hi there. I'm here for the first time and I really don't know what I'm gonna write. Of course it's a great opportunity to improve my writing skills and help me with my English. Of bloody course. But what would help me with my total absence of talent? I suppose, it must be some kind of an inherent thing, you know. I can't remember anyone in my family smart enough to write books or... play violin and shake hands with Beethoven or Clode Debussy...Just Common people without anything out of the ordinary. To be honest, I hate this "ordinarity" if that is the word. To be like everyone else is equal to be Nobody or smth. But trying to become special makes one instantly such a fool which is equal to "common" and ,as a result, equal to Nobody. There are phrases . "Nothing in particular" ,"Nothing special". What if we replace nothing with nobody? Certainly nothing would happen to you if you do so. Don't even worry about that. The thing is that I have to write smth, even utter nonsense. So here I go. I mean , what actually is "to be special"? Not to be like anyone else? But how can I know for sure what people are, those ones whom I'm bumping into in the streets, swearing fiercely and wishing violently to see their tombs? How can I measure their "specialness" or "nonspecialness"??? Of course one would say "Everyone is special in their own way. What the hell are you talking about, poor chap?? It's 12 pm and you'd better go to sleep until something bad happens" By something bad I actually mean every bloody thing that can happen to you at 12 o'clock at night. Vomiting, diarrhea, intrunsion of UFO, or fits of sexual neurosis...Whatever. "I wish I was special...You're so fucking special...But I'm a creep...I'm a weirdo..." Radiohead, eh? Well may be weirdoes are the only ones who remain special in their own special way? "Nobody in their right mind would ever eat wasps plucking them out of their shoes (whose shoes - no idea) . But I'm doing this. 'Cause I'm a weirdo and I don't care. And even If I did I would still remain a weirdo" And blablabla. Gorgeous post. I am to burst into tears and be dead in seconds. hehehe I has run out of tosh, write back soon bye

wow.... Read this: (change the man part to woman=) When you get what you want in your struggle for self And the world makes you king for a day, Just go to a mirror and look at yourself And see what THAT man has to say. For it isn’t your father or mother or wife Whose judgement upon you must pass; The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life Is the one staring back from the glass. Some people may think you a straight-shootin’ chum And call you a wonderful guy, But the man in the glass says you’re only a bum If you can’t look him straight in the eye. He’s the fellow to please, never mind all the rest, For he’s with you clear up to the end. And you’ve passed your most dangerous difficult test If the man in the glass is your friend. You may fool the whole world down the path-way of life And get pats on your back as you pass, But your final reward will be heartaches and tears If you’ve cheated the man in the glass.
