I don't understand you better than most; I am just your friend, with troubles of my own.

Although I could be using my desire to type to complete (start) my english essay on innocence and experience, or talk to people, I am enjoying the way my fingers slide across the keyboard without my brain having to connect. I am in one of those moods, where you are not a very exciting person, but have every desire to be exciting and interesting,

a friend once asked me, 'if you could know anything in the world, what would would it be?',
to which i replied, 'nothing, my friend.'

then he said i was smart, and i felt happy.
that friend went by the name of jack jewell.

Innocence. No doubt about it.
If innocence is the same as ignorance, particularly, because then I could give up on school and live in a nice little bubble of stupidity.

Livejournal is strange. You need to get out more Cas :P

Are you coming up to Granny's this weekend?

Lots of Love, Liv

[plastic_pearls]

Too smart for your own good huh.

Sorry I need to get out more - says the girl who is, no doubt, excited coz she gets to go on the computer on a sunday!!! Poor little boarding school girl :P shocker.

No, I have work - I was gonna go up during the week, but only if the results are not good.

Lots of love

Too smart for you, little cousin. Just think, I will be done with A-levels before you've even done your exams, and I'll be out of this place forever. Haha.

Okay, well I'll see you at xmas then, call me...rescue me from this hell-hole. Lots of love, Liv.

P.S - Maybe I should get one of these journals so I can write all about how much smarter I am that you. I think that sounds great.

I would choose innocence without a shadow of a doubt. Take christmas, for example, during innocence christmas means so much more than presents. I can't really explain it but it was like a kind of dormant ecstacy, that you only became aware of a day or two before christmas day. After that realisation, you could think of nothing else, and the day itself was never a disappointment. If I won the lottery, I would pay a white haired fat guy to be father christmas (he's called father christmas by the way, not "Santa Claus"), and people would adjust their chimneys and he would deliver one present to everyone. It wouldn't have to be massive, but that excitement of not knowing what he would bring would return, and we could all enjoy christmas as we used to

i second that one ram.
especially about the christmas thing. For years, even when i knew santa didn't exist, somewhere in the back of my mind still believed that he'd be coming down the chimney. but then something clicked and now stockings are like easter eggs at the end of beds. explainable.

It's true what you told me today, that you left a fabulous comment.

It's typical that during innocence, I wanted responsibility and experience, but once I got them, I wanted to send them back again...
It's true - 'the knowledge that makes ys cherish innocence makes innocence unnattainable'. It's too late to send them back i guess. I don't necessarily view that as a bad thing though, just a fact of life.

Innocent kisses right backatya xxxxx (i do miss you)

i think i go with experience. Imagine our lives void of all that we have tried, never knowing. Truesay we wouldnt be curious for things we never knew existed but we would be missing out subconciously, which is sad. On the other hand dont you think that at some level if we were that naive, innocent and inexperienced, we might think we were experienced. And indeed we would be - we would be experienced in our own innocence.

sorry. its 1.40 am monday morning. i am attempting bio revision for my mock. wow. its on.

love x x x

[plastic_pearls]

I'm a believer in experience too. Because 'once you start asking questions innocence is gone' and so i equate innocence with ignorance in some ways. its a tricky one though, perhaps a case of the grass is always greener.

its on?

love you xxxxx
