"The order of things"

It has been weeks since my last post... or has it been months? I find myself contemplating my future more and more, as I guess is expected during my junior year. Will I want to return to woodstock for my senior year? Which colleges should I look at? Do I want to play D3 lacrosse in college? Should I take a gap year after Highschool? Do I want to focus on a music career? what should I do. As far as I can see, this is all there is to it.

("The order of things")

get up, shower, brush teeth.
get dressed, get food, put on shoes.

do work, turn it in, get good grades.
apply to college, get into college, do well in college.

get a degree, maybe a P.H.D.? graduate from college

now what will you do in the order of things?


And yet one choice could be as good as another. I could stay here or go there, and results would be wildly and vastly different. I suppose I have reached this point, this period of contemplation naturally, for it really is in "the order of things."

The sun is shining here. When sunlight is out in full force, it feels warmer than that of summer in the states. Of course, this is also due to the altitude here in Mussorie. Monsoon is receding, the ferns which grow on the trees here are turning brown (a sign of the end of monsoon). Some leaves are falling. The lush green is stull quite lush, but its lively colors are slightly dulled. There is a crisp bite in the air, which reminds me painfully that it is fall in New England, and that I have never before missed that beautiful season. Monkeys are out, trashing trash cans, and so on. What delightful characters.

Anyway, I'll try to get a post up with videos and maybe pictures I've taken. as well as ad some more posts, so it won't be another month till I update you all.
