The Great Unknown! It Beckons!

City Hall

Ooooh, really should be studying, but have the worst urge to just buy a plane ticket to anywhere and go on an awesome, crazy adventure. Don't you ever get that itch? I mean, it's so easy to get settled into a routine, and believe me, I am the queen of routine, and there is so much comfort and luxury in that, but... well, there is a thin line between routine and death, isn't there? Where is the spice of life when there is no uncertainty? Where is the adventure when everything is familiar?

Sometimes I completely lose the ability to focus, and spend a couple of minutes listening to musical scores from all sorts of adventure movies, and imagine a life where I would live from day to day. Wouldn't it be cool to be a vagabond of sorts, going from town to town, staying just long enough to change people's lives for the better, and then moving on to somewhere new? Just imagine how liberating it would be to be able to start over new every couple of months! It would be so refreshing to be freed of everyone and everything that reminds you of what you are. Ah, and that's the amazing thing about travel: when you're away from everything you know, all that's left is you- the real, uninfluenced you.

Bother. Now all I want to do is pull some sort of Romancing the Stone meets Lawrence of Arabia meets Pirates of the Caribbean meets The Mummy meets Indiana Jones stunt, which is entirely out of the question, as I have a Human Resource Management exam to prepare for. Bother bother bother.

Studying while listening to soundtracks will have to suffice. Siiigh. At least there's daydreaming. Perhaps can daydream about being some sort of treasure-hunting HR-historian in search of the Lost Human Resource Management Guide of Sumatra- a manuscript carved from pure diamond plates.
