My life...

My life has completely transformed since I left college. It's not just that a lot has happened to me, at work and otherwise, but it's so much more about the people that I live with, interact with everyday. My housemates, who are also colleagues at work, and really good friends. They are also designers. Artists. Not the kind you usually think of. Not the stereotypical ones. A bunch that I've never really had the chance to interact with. They awe me, they inspire me. And most importantly, they've opened my mind to a world that I never knew existed. Suddenly, I see colours. I notice shapes and patters. I think in more than just writing. I express in more than just writing. Today for instance. With sound. An analog synthesizer. Producing sound waves that I'm not used to hearing. Not melodious, no. Definitely not. But alluring....captivating. Sounds that my ears are not used to. Sounds that my brain is not used to. Experimental music. Electronic. Sounds from the future. Sounds that makes me travel...through space and through time. Did I like it, enjoy it? I don't know. They aren't feelings that I can describe in the language we have. But not just this music. A lot of the things that I've experienced in the past months. There's no language to express them. There are no words. Because most people live their entire lives without ever experiencing these things. Every day, something new happens. Something else that amazes me. The richness of my the life I'm now leading astounds me.
