So i've been doing a presentation on Tibet on the old powerpoint
ive realised from the many documentaries of it, that it is a really wonderful place
except for the poverty of course

but theres nothing wrong with a simple way of life
i'd love to go and live off the land in some community
that would be the most amazing experience

thats why i want to be an anthropologist
go and see other cultures and live with them and things
obviously there would have to be some work involved...

i'd love to make a TV show or something
or write books about the places i go to
i just want to travel so so much!

Japan first, i've decided
Hokkaido definately for the rice farms
then Osaka for the town life and bustling trains and such
then Kyoto for the history and the spas and temples

Then off to China or the Himalayas for the buddhist temples
i would love to join in and live like them!
dunno if they would let me when i dont actually have a religion
i couldnt lie to them, i;d have to point out that i dont want to become a buddhist
just want to know how it would be to live like one

its so exciting, thinking through what you could do in your life
but it all comes down to money
it always does

and im kinda scared i'll find a place i love so much that i'll forget my home and friends
and just stay there forever...

who would miss me eh? =P

but seriously
who in their right minds would not want to see a Tibetan prayer bell
its a massive bells with prayers writen all over it
well they can be really big, or tiny ones in rows
and you spin them to makes the bell ring
and the sound reaches the gods
with the big bells, the children sit on them when they spin round like a roundabout
think about our roundabouts compared to theres
totally different way of life

has anyone looked up at the sky and wondered who is looking up at that same moment
where are they?
what are they doing?
are they thinking the same thing as me?
what do they look like?
these are the questions i want to know

im fed up of researching on the internet, its all middle class american rubbish
they've never been there
never experienced it
thats what im going to do
im going to find those people and learn about them
i want to know!
