Listening to: Ellen Degeneres Show
Mood: Exhausted

As procrastination takes over, surfing the internet for entertainment begins. Facebook. Twitter. Ninemsn. Blogger. Ah a new post from a friend of mine, and as I read the post, my mind began to churn and digest the information, opinions, thoughts began to bubble.

It's ironic how life works out, not to mention slightly hypocritical. As I sailed through my last leg of highschool, I glanced back to watch the younger grades, to observe. I watched on as little girls squealed over a friend who bagged herself a boyfriend. I watched as they discussed life changing topics; "what should I wear this weekend?"

I listen on with frustration, and wonder why there is a need to discuss such important, vital topics. However, as my frustration began to seep away I realised, I was no different at that age. I too spoke excitedly about encounters with the opposite sex, I too discussed with friends what I should wear on the weekend, I too squealed with excitement when a friend bagged herself a boyfriend.

It's ironic, hypocritical, call it what you will. As people age, mature, their thoughts and opinions obviously change too. It's all part of life, to laugh at the blunders you made along the way.

So I've criticised the younger kids, what about those my own age? Well, honestly, it's no different. Sometimes I sit and wonder, "Why are we discussing this? Is it necessary?". As I sit here writing this post I'm actually pondering on what I discuss in my circle of friends, what makes time go by as we chat over lunch. Clearly, it's nothing worth remembering as I have no recollection of what I discuss. Sure there's a few things such as upcoming events that we discuss, tv shows/movies. I understand not every discussion must be about something worth remembering, that'd would soon too become blase, but every now and then would spice up the conversations.

Perhaps, I should just stop complaining and start stirring things up a bit more. Note to self.
