its all about spurring that moment on.

we felt like taking a walk down glenferrie because we could and we didn't really need a reason to do so.

so we did.

that giddy feeling of freedom as you skip straight past the sign-out book and through the doors.

we walked down and down, past thaithai, past nando's, and we were going to go further probably.

but i glimpsed streetwise.

and i said, hey lets go in.

pam shrugged and smiled.

why not?

so we went into streetwise because we felt like it.

because we could.

we ran our fingers over all the keyboards and computers.

macbook air.

macbook pro.

some samsung wide LCD screen that was pretty cool.

the new ipod nano with its elongated screen.

"look, its the new iPod nano."

"looks exactly like all the other iPods to me."

then we stumbled out.

and i said we had to go back because i didn't actually hav egeneral period off.

so we turned around.

rachel and su were at the lights.

we pranced around a little, though my prancing was a little limited because su tried to pull me off rachel when i wanted to hug her.

the lights turned green.

pam turned around.

'race you to the school?'

and we ran, leaving rach and su behind.

all the way to the little gate.

sometimes there are moments in life you don't want to forget.

I'm turning eighteen this year and already I don't want to lose my memory.
