My flat mates convinced me to go to the 90's party tonight. once i got there and heared the music i remembered some thoughts i used to have in highschool. i had this habit of hiding under my desk and write pages and pages of this future adventure of mine in the finnish wildness. i would of course have a blond partner during this expedition. while exploring this landscapes in my mind i could hear the type of music they played at the disco tonight. yet it wasn't me...i have dreamed for so long to have the chance to live in a place like in the videos i would see on tv but i just don't fit in....maybe my hair is too dark and it gets into my eyes; it stops me from admiting that all the feelings i have catharticly lived were all in my head.
People here seem to enjoy themselves. what i see now is somehow like that scene in movies when the main character is sensing that something is going to happen but everything goes in slow motion and the music is hiding in the background as if were afraid of what will follow.
i can only imagine that i am feeling a change more painfully than others. i see people and words changing shoes and meanings and kids learning to paint with numbers. i never got maths in highschool. i only like old clothes. they suit me better than digits.
I left the party after an hour; the strangest and yet the most typical thing for me happened. the cold winterish wind blew in my face. as i am someone who lives mostly in the past i took it as a sign. i remembered some other teenage dreams of mine. me wanting to be a scientist somewhere beyond the arctic circle. ..winter has a special music in my ears. only i can hear it (and probably someone who lives by a "generous palmstroke") it has a harsh and cold sound. it usually freezes people...only my smile freezes for me, so i can cry on the inside when memories of future snowstorms and dark conversations run though my mind.

Imagine a quiet, quiet sea surface. Imagine bodies sliding onto it. The less they slide the colder the sea gets. It never freezes as it gets too much salt from the sweaty white bodies. It could be the sea of Barents or it could be just another small, closed, sea on a distant planet. It could be a sea of planets, too. It's the surface that defines it and not the depth.
