Scattered Pieces or Remembrance of What I Felt Today,
Recently I've been toying with the idea that I'd became again the promising,
idealistic, romantic and wild young man I used to be. Maybe I'm starting to
notice that I don't have much time left before joining the dull, wrinkling
adult
world with no way return. That's what I was during my last years at
school and my
fisrt days at the college. In some way, I was wishing to go
back to my teen
years. Last year I dropped all. The breakdown I had was so
strong that I nearly
missed one whole year. Almost no recorded worthy
literary tries are to be found
dating from those months. . I leaped over
that year without noticing and now I
face this year with the idea of doing
more thing than ever, though I have lesser
than than before. I tend to get
stressed easily and, though I am prone to join
every kind of activity, I
easily get overhelmed by all the tasks I'm ionvolved.
And since I'm in this
new home, I can't control my time as I used. I'm sot of
missed the notion of
time. For instance, I knew how much time did everything
take -I'd know that
in a certain lapse of time I could this, this and this-. The
house was
smaller too and I didn't waste so much time going to one end to the
other
end and, of course, I lived closer to my places of interest. It's hard to
get used to this new situation. Some nights i wake in the darkness,
believing
I'm still in my old, cozy home -mainly when I sleep on the smaller
bed- and it
takes me a while to realize where I am. Then I feel I regret
having moved. I
don't mean I dislike this house -it's rather nice- but it
occurs to be a bit
disappointing in some ways. You think your live is going
to improve a lot but it
doesn't. In fact you miss some things.
I
sometimes wish I were my house. Or
I least, that I could keep it. The week
after we came here, I used to went there
often, to bid a last farewell.
Since my father gave the keys back, I broke once
into the house, at night
-some kind of night incursion- The house won't be
habited and will remain
untouched at least until next month. Prior to that
stupid greenhorn come and
push over some walls, I like to see it with the eyes
of my face before it's
to late and I could see only it with the eyes of my mind.
I smell and press
my face against the battered, splintered wooden floor and I
feel the urge of
kissing the tiles of the kitchen's wall. And I gaze fot the
last time out of
the old-fashioned iron balcony to the charming stone monastery
and the
massive, lace-like cathedral.
Good night, hope to see you soon. I'm leavng for a party with a German blondin.
