Evolution of Thought

I am starting to run out of emotions again. And surprisingly, I'm running out of things to think of (despite that research paper I have yet to finish editing for the last time, planning this last minute beach trip and looking for a small 13x100 mm test tube for Chem.)

I've been wanting to come up with one sentence. But I don't know for what. One sentence that describes leaving Pisay perhaps? (Man, I can say it it one word: Meh. Hahaha Just kidding. But most probably that's it, you know...) One sentence that describes the immediate future. One sentence that describes being up late at night, doing nothing but wanting to do something.

Aha. I know. See, the powers of blogging and spontaneous thought. It does eventually lead to something.

I have stocked creative juices that haven't been used yet. It's because I don't have Photoshop and thus can't start making a layout for an online portfolio I'm planning. Fuck. I need to fly away for the moment. I'm staying 3 weeks in Japan by the way. Okay, there. Mentioning that doesn't make me feel empty anymore. My heart is doing cartwheels again at the prospect of going to Kyoto and snapping beautiful photos.

Japan reminds me of Lost In Translation. And I remembered that I forgot my copy of Lost In Translation in the hotel room when we checked in after grad ball. Dixi returned it to me that early morning. I left it right in front of the TV. And then later on I told myself, "Matago na nga to baka makalimutan ko nanaman."

I'm such a psychic. I did forget it there. I haven't checked my bag yet though. But I'm definitely demi-depressed since I have to buy it again. But I want to buy Eternal Sunshine too. My parents haven't even given me grad gifts yet anyway (I know, I'm going on a trip and all but still...)

And jumping on to another topic again... I always think if I can explore all of the Philippines. Probably not. I'd probably die not even getting to go to half of 7000+ islands. But I don't want to die not being able to.

And now... where's that one beautiful sentence I'm searching for? It could be just one word, or just a sound. Where is it? Damn it. I'm most probably searching for one beautiful sentence because there's this photography contest on deviantArt that revolves around the theme Real. I want one sentence, so eloquently crafted, profound or largely unusual, that can describe reality.

Reality is relative. So, people, you can probably share your one beautiful sentence or just one sentence you like so much.

Everybody wants to be found.

That's a pretty sentence from Lost In Translation. Oh, the core of human existence... To find one's self and to be found.

Hmm... do you think the world would be better if they all visited my deviantart account? Nar, I don't think so. But I'd certainly feel better (since human nature was designed to make us selfish anyway) so visit it now at http://cultureddirtbag.deviantart.com

Regarding my the photos I'll be taking of California and Las Vegas, I want to capture the essence of the various cities (LA, SF, Vegas, etc.) I want to see something and capture something unusual with my photos. Something about these parts of the United States that is very much there yet not much spoken of. Probably the evocative aspect of the place. I believe that each place has its own soul created by its people, culture, environment and all that jazz.

I just came up with this sentence: I want to capture your soul (through photos, that is). Either way, with or without the "through photos" part it sounds darn scary. But funny. hahahaha
