green grass.

you know, i don't know why i get so unsatisfied with my life every so often. actually, you don't know. or if you do, please tell me.

i have so many things going for me, and really, life is good... but then i hear about what people did last weekend, what they're planning to do over winter break, the places they're planning to go, the new people in their lives, the old people in their lives, how they're doing in school and goodness knows what else (maybe goodness doesn't know either) and for some reason i simply cannot fathom, i feel like i'm missing out.

the weirdest thing is, whatever they're doing is not necessarily what i want to do, and if i had the choice i might not have even chosen what they chose, but i still feel somewhat resentful. i don't get it.

i feel like one of the kids at moss street who try to push another kid off a bike so he/she (usually a he) can ride it. watching them i just know that once the kid gets the bike, he/she will cycle around for all of two minutes before looking for something else to covet.

man, i really am a two-year-old at heart.

Isn't it amazing how people always want what they cant have, even when they know that they won't be satisfied with whatever it is they want? I do the same thing all the time.

this goes through my mind too. *glares at a random cyclist*

no, really. there's that sense of just wanting everything. even if it's things you don't want, you want them. in some sense. you know? or maybe you don't.
