i see paris, i see france

only 10 days has elapsed and this unexplainable feeling hasnt left. i havent felt this ambition in awhile - to learn this culture and live this culture. im so determined to eventually make this temporary residence permanent while im impressionable, young, and willing.
theres nothing like the struggle of learning the metro system and the strolls down the piss-marked streets live with people of foreign backgrounds. i want this so bad.
its impossible to take it all in as the nights turn into days and days into nights. i want it all.
this experience has started off completely different than the last as ive made several friends from a single cigarette.
i visited the modern art museum and stumbled across galleries exhibiting originals of john lennon, bob dylan, the beatles, student work, contemporary, traditional - the likes of what i want in my future.
this lifestyle is as surreal as within arms reach. just several tickets, and its mine. its hard to conceive it all within a short visit and i want it all.
ive been contemplating attending a university through the international program considering im one of dual citienship. but ive come to the conclusion im better off if im patient and achieve an education in the states - where our shitty educational system is expensive and easy.
today i watched woody allens film 'whatever works' and couldnt agree more with this director's satirical ideas. im glad i got to watch this film while i was here - a reminder of how nothing is permanent.
i can always change my plans as i leisurely stroll and discover what my future entails.
