Folie

Hello, Holla, G'day, Bonjour, a few of the many ways that we as humans greet one another. I am Sophia Lorraine, I have some last names but haven't decided on any yet. This is a place for my thoughts to unfold, a safe serenity.

These were posted on an Australian Tourism Website and the answers are the actual responses by the website officials.

Q: Does it ever get windy in Australia ? I have never seen it rain on TV, how do the plants grow? ( UK ).
A: We import all plants fully grown and then just sit around watching them die.
Q: Will I be able to see kangaroos in the street? ( USA )
A: Depends how much you've been drinking.
Q: I want to walk from Perth to Sydney - can I follow the railroad tracks? ( Sweden)
A: Sure, it's only three thousand miles, take lots of water.
Q: Are there any ATMs (cash machines) in Australia? Can you send me a list of them in Brisbane, Cairns, Townsville and Hervey Bay ? ( UK )
A: What did your last slave die of?
Q: Can you give me some information about hippo racing in Australia ? ( USA )
A: A-Fri-ca is the big triangle shaped continent south of Europe.
Aus-tra-lia is that big island in the middle of the Pacific which does not... Oh forget it. Sure, the hippo racing is every Tuesday night in Kings Cross. Come naked.
Q: Which direction is North in Australia ? (USA )
A: Face south and then turn 180 degrees. Contact us when you get here and we'll send the rest of the directions.

Q: I have a question about a famous animal in Australia, but I forget its name. It's a kind of bear and lives in trees. ( USA )
A: It's called a Drop Bear. They are so called because they drop out of Gum trees and eat the brains of anyone walking underneath them. You can scare them off by spraying yourself with human urine before you go out walking.
Q: Do you celebrate Christmas in Australia ? ( France )
A: Only at Christmas.

Answer:

You see I really like the way this question is asked, there is a sense of optimism. It is where I would like to imagine my self verses where I actually see my self. 

But this I actually a rather difficult questions because I haven’t really decided which of the many paths I want to take. But there are a few things that I am sure I would like to have accomplished. I will have wanted to have traveled/backpacked around more Europe and possibly more of Asia, finished or be finishing some kind of art degree in university. 

But I would like to I see myself lost in the forest of Brittany, France surrounded by people I love with a bottle of wine, a few loafs of bread and lots of butter jam and cheese, conversing and just taking in life on breath at a time. But for now that is just a dream.

What about you, Anonymous? 

OH MY GOD!

Why must everything feel like I am in a crazy fucking high school movie!? Things were so lovely, easy, fun. Now just to crash and burn so quickly is horrible. I had no idea I, Sophia was so easy to fool. Why? Do I have a huge target sign on my head? I don’t want to pity myself I would just like to have a better understanding. I thought things would continue to be lovely but tonight I cant really see the light at the end of the tunnel to clearly. Maybe its the weather? Is this what snow does to people? Maybe I should just sleep it off and it will all be okay in the morning. We shall find out, and if not well then, thats life. Right?

Teenage Bliss, Teenage Beauty.

I had an almost life changing experience this evening. It was unexplainable yet still so wonderful. The pure essence of life, passion, fun, sex, laughter, simplicity and complexity yet still so magical. Most people are oblivious to the effect one night can have on something, or how much a few words someone says, or just a look can effect you. No, I’m not some different person. No, I’m not in love, and this doesn’t mean it wasn’t just another kiss, cuddle, fuck. It was so lovely more then I could put into words. It was the beginning of an era. It is going to be a beautiful journey, and I am excited for the adventure.
