I don't know how to "seize the day" because I do want to but also all I ever want to do is lie around and talk about things on the internet which I don't think is very "seize the day" of me. But then I think that"seize the day" also means do whatever the fuck you want to do so then I don't feel as bad. BUT then I do feel bad because I want to do lots of things other than write on the internet and I feel I could be doing those things instead. I have several books I need to read and I feel I should stop spending money on so much clothing and spend it on cheap records, plants and more books and tickets to go see more places (although however I've already fulfilled the last one considering I spend 90% of my money travelling to see my boyfriend).
And right now while I was sat flicking through each of my tabs this photo of Matt Hitt came up on tumblr and I was overcome with jealousy. I think if I belonged or was even just present in such a huge city, sitting around doing nothing on my laptop wouldn't feel like doing nothing because while I was doing nothing I was also sitting in one of the greatest cities on earth. I think to me just being in New York would be doing something pretty great considering I haven't the money to do so and I'm halfway around the world. Although to be fair I barely have any money for lunch most days.
As an A-level student I think "seize the day" just right now means doing a lot of school work, reading books and making new friends and stuff. I like to "seize the day" by wearing a cute outfit. Today I'm going out in gusty windy weather to go to the pet shop to pick up the fishies i've been meaning to buy since October and yesterday I bought a cacti and I am quite happy with myself and on Friday I completed alf of an essay that wasn't due til a week later.
