Lewis in Wonderland

To lose one's self in reverie, one must be either very happy, or very unhappy. Reverie is the child of extremes. ~Antoine Rivarol

I was trying to daydream, but my mind kept wandering. ~Steven Wright

I daydream quite a bit. Sitting at my computer, in class, in bed. I daydream pretty much all the time. So many different subjects too, always depending on recent stimuli and activity in my life. They can be extravagant and childish like super powers and alchemy, they can be quite simple and plain like my career one day. They can be a mixture of different ones, like being a Superhero one day XD.

But the point is, I daydream a lot. During this time I think "Oh that would be great!" then "Oh that will be great!" then "I can't wait for this to happen!" And then, amidst my shooting stars, and magical clouds of my imagination, it hits me. And I have to come plummeting back down to the real worlds. I realize it will never happen. I realize that I live in reality. Boring, plain reality. Sometimes I can go back on with whatever I was doing, accepting reality and whatnot. But other times, it'll have hit me like a Cedar chest full of bowling balls, each with the density of Jupiter.

I feel as though something has been taken from me. When I analyze in now it seems silly. For one, they're mostly absurd daydreams, but still I feel a certain attachment to them. Especially the serious(ish) ones about my life. I fell like I was in that world, and I was part of that real world, even if it was only for a minute. And then poof, blammo, SLAP in the face: it's not real. "You don't get your happy dream land, it's time to live in the real world of nothing going your way." The times I feel like that, I just feel empty afterwards. Like why was I even given a taste of that if I can't have it? Meh.

I got new glasses yesterday. These ones are less run over than my previous pair. At much as I loved my Hugo Boss specs, I do enjoy my Converse. I also enjoy people being a bit confused over Converse, the shoe company, making eye-wear. Besides, these ones fit on my face better.
