Length no object.

Today this blog entry comes from English class. Well it got written in English and posted from my computer. Posted the way it normally does. Well actually more often it gets posted from one of the computers in the ICT room. Well anyway I'm "posting" here because I forgot my book, the book we as an English class are studying. I was cleaning my room last night and I found the book. I was holding it in my hand and said to myself "Will I need this? Nah I'll be fine."

It's odd really, I'm a speed reader so I only remember some details. But I don't remember much about that book, barely anything. It's like my mind just seemed to gloss over it, like it never happened. Which makes it Ironic when you consider what the book is. It's called "All quiet on the western front." Which is a novel about what's called "the something of war." Pity maybe, or tyranny, I don't remember exactly. Maybe my mind glossed over the book because thats what my mind has been trained to do. We hear about the soldiers fighting the war against terror all over the world. But when do we experience it? When is it that the war comes and places itself in front of our face? We say "oh thats terrible" and then move onto the next story in the news.  We gloss over it in our regular life so why should a pretend mans life make any difference. I think thats why I don't remember it.

And on the topic of not remembering things, It was my birthday last Friday. Yay Me. And also I wasn't in a position to post on Saturday or Sunday. And maybe Friday. I don't remember if I posted on Friday. Anywho I thought I'd better make it a long post today. To make up for the days I didn't post. And I think this is fairly large. Almost a whole A4 page in my pad. Actually I lied It's more than a page. In writing it's almost a page It became a page. Kinda self fulfilling. Anyway on a note of self congratulation. Apparently my girlfriends relationship with me has been her longest ever. Yay Us. I don't know If i share this and I don't want to. I don't want to compare one relationship with another. Even if it's only based on time. Because that encourages me to keep track of other things. Every relationship is different. I don't want to cheapen them by comparing them. It makes them seem less.

I hope this makes up for lack off posts.
I'm Out. Seya.
