The original title of the song is "Aunque tu no lo sepas". It's a Spanish song by Enrique Urquijo. It's a beautiful song. It hasn't any link with what I'm going to talk about. I'm going to traduce it :
Even if you ignore it, I invented your name.
I get junk with promises and I slept in cars.
Even if you don't understand it, I never write the direction on the enveloppe.
To not let my marks.
Even if you ignore it, I slept on your back.
And my cold bed complains when you leave.
I reinfroced my door, and when the morning came I didn't pay attention
that you weren't there anymore.
Even if you ignore it, we use to say so much,
with our full hands, very day a little thinner.
We invented tides, we piloted boats,
And I turn on with kiss,
the see of your lips.
Well, those days I've been a little off. My body is off. I'm really tired and I can't wait to be this Friday! Holidays are gonna be great, I hope!
Anyways, yesterday I visited my ex-drama club. The guy I was really friend with was there. He doesn't want to speak to me anymore because of his confession about his feelings that were a little bit more than the one you usually have for your friends. And since then, he doesn't want to even hear my name, because it would be "disrespectful" to talk to me again. That's the most stupid thing I've ever heard! Anyways! I was kinda sad and mad because of him! But I was glad to see a friend I made when I visited my best friend last year. I was already at College and the guy just began in the drama club. My best friend told me that apparently the dude felt in love with me the first day he saw me during a play. This guy is amazing! Really cute, super funny. If you don't laugh to his jokes, you are sick, or dead or you should be!
Waiting the guys to enter the high school I had a surprise. A car arrived, I looked in the car : a dude than was in my class in 8th grade with other guys that were in Middle School with me. He came out of the car, saw me and said "Oh! Whats up?!" I stay far from him and said hi too. I never thought he could recognize me. Then, like ten minutes after another car arrived. The driver was another guy I knew form middle school. My best friend caught the look of the guy next to him, I didn't have time. My best friend words were "Oh fuck!" I asked what was wrong and she told me "that's your man in it". I didn't look to the car. I just waited my other friends. The fun guy arrived, and he was watching over my shoulders, just like when someone sees another person walking in your direction. I turned and he was there, walking, he stopped when I was in front and opened his arms. I hug him quickly. I wasn't really aware of what was happening. I haven't see him for one year, at least. Lately he sent me some texts to have some news. The guy I'm talking about was the guy I was totally in love with in 10th grade. Nano can testify. I was like a fool. And this guy did deserve the half I suffer because of him. Now I consider him as a friend. Really no more. And I glad to say that seeing him yesterday just made me feel like when you haven't see a friend for a long time and just enjoy the fact you can see him and feel him for a sec. Just that. No more. I thought that I could fall again. But no. I'm stronger. I make the rules now that he is talking back to me. That's amazing.
This morning, waiting for my best friend (you obviously understand that I'm talking about my other best friend, not Nano!), I checked out what was new on facebook. I found a text I guy I met in Spain wrote about his trip. We met that guy in Spain, he was my friend's "boyfriend" for the same night I had 'Tyler' lol. So he wrote something about his amazing trip. He visited several countries and he his now back to his hometown (I won't say the name, it's Tyler's one too, I don't wanna be discovered! lmao). His text really moved me. And it make me think about Spain again. I didn't have time to think about it for a long time now. But today, that I saw his text, I though a lot about what I live there. For now, that was the experience of my life. The first time I could let my wings be controled by a free wind and not by my parents'. I grew up a little after this trip, and I also become a little bit more kiddish. Kiddish in the way that this boy put me up-side-down. I could stay hours just looking at him. Without saying anything. Just look at him. Look at his eyes. I know I always say that when I speak about him, but man, you guys haven't seen his eyes! They are incredible. He is incredible.
Anyway, I'm planning to go back again. Alone, maybe, or with friends. I don't care. Being alone is something cool too. Like you can waist your time the way you want. You don't have to agree with someone's programm. You make it by your own. You discover the city, the people. Alone. I like it. But with friends it's way funnier when you go to parties or clubs.
I miss the sun burning my skin, the sand hurting my feet because it was like puting them in a fireplace, my headhache at the beach because of the temperature, the long-walks in the city sleeping at 5 or 6am, the place we were living in, the guys we met, the city, the clean subway, the tiny little room we had, the pool we created everyday when we got out of the shower. Everything, anything. I miss it all. I even miss the panic moments when, at 5am we were in a street we've never seen before because we were talking too much, the missing street on this little free citymap. The way back home, when we finally found our way. The adventures to be as quiet as possible when we had to go to bed when our room mate was sleeping her 1 last hour before packing and leaving us forever. The raising sun through the window when our head just touched the pillow. The light coming inside of the room, the first sun shines when we finally close our eyes to sleep a few hours before starting a new day.
When my mom put on her fragrance I'm back there. Her fragrance reminds me my trip. Dunno why.
Some songs remind me it too. A lot of songs I often play to be back there for three minutes.
Googlemapping the place we were. Just to see if they really exist. If this all wasn't just a big sweet dream. And I know it was. But it was a dream I had the chance to live.
I can't wait to feel this sensations again. To be free again. To feel me, like I really am.
I just want to have fun.
Today, my teacher said he was chocked by the number of blog containing things like "I" "I do" "I am"...He thinks we should talk about the world, about what is happening and not about our feelings. The world make us feel like we feel, the experience we live make everything we are. Talking about us we talk about the world. And what can I say more about the world? That it's screwed up? That I don't know how our future will be? That's what we should say?
I prefer speak about lame things, not interesting things, but things that can be feel by some of you, if you read it.
Thanks,
LOVE
