Uniform

"dear diary,

things are getting rough. no, it's not about my serval incarnation. she goes dancing in her clubs, probably causing little offence. no, it's about the band. one of the guys came up with a new idea, so they all ended up arguing about it. not that they didn't like the idea. they loved it. but they argued about how to.

this guy (sheared sheep) suggested that we should get ourselves uniforms. for looking the same on stage. (they are all a bit nerdy to me, so i'm not quite sure i want to look the same.) then they discussed this for two hours, instead of rehearsing. should they be golden? black and white? all black? i think the only style not suggested was pink.

come on. we haven't got our two first songs right yet. we are not going to perform. at least not very soon. and we'd look awfully stupid in uniforms. at least i would.

but i didn't open my mouth, because they might have taken me showing any interest whatsoever as an approval of the idea.

Stars

I haven't seen the guy who eats peanuts now for a while. Well, he kept saying he was eating peanuts, anyhow, big bags of them, but I never saw the actual bags, or not even a single peanut, I think. Still he kept saying he was eating them. Now that I think of it, he also said he was in Germany, so he was deep into this thing about roleplaying humans.

I wonder where he's gone. As far as I know, you can't just stop. I can't. Not like telling myself that I won't wake up today, and sleep until next day. I can't do that. When I wake up, I wake up, and nothing can change that. I have no choice but to spend the time in the world until I fall asleep again.

I don't think he has been discontinued. There would have been no reason for it. He never misbehaved, or so. And he can't have been discontinued for not having any friends left, because I still have him in my friends list. I would never be able to take any avatar out of my list, now that I know how it all works. If I did, and if I was the last friend that this av had left, then it would be my fault that she or he got deleted.

Maybe the peanut guy has moved on to the Third Life. He used to wear a halo on his head. And Mia once said in the diary that halos are religious symbols. Others have told me that it's normal to get religious when your time is coming to a close. So maybe that is what happened. His one million and eighty days were running out, so he got himself a halo. You know, this theory is supported by the fact that his halo was shining red, not shining white. It's like an old star, that goes red when running out of fuel, just before being discontinued.

I think that may be what happened to him. He was running out of days, got himself a halo when realizing this, and the halo turned red towards the end. And then he TP'd to Third Life. However that is done. Whatever that is. Hope you'll find a better dance partner there, peanut guy.

I find these thoughts about a third life very distressing. I don't like thinking them at all. So I won't. I'll think of the stars instead. The pretty stars. There are so many of them. And you know, so many have wonderful, mysterious names. Many of them begin with an A. Like Aldebaran, Antares, Altair, Alrescha, Alnilam and Alcyone. The first two of these are red, the next two white, and the last ones blue. It's ever so beautiful. I have tried to fly to them, but I can't. After climbing for some time, i don't seem to get higher and higher any more. The others say it's because the stars are so very far away, which makes if feel as if I'm not getting any closer. But I don't get that. The stars are in this world, right, or I wouldn't see them. And the world isn't that big. It's big, but not that big. I spent such a long time flying to the stars, without getting there, that they had switched DJ twice in the Sanctuary Rock when I came back there after giving it all up. Such a long flight should have brought me to the end of the world, I think.

Another thing that I don't get is why the stars can be seen only when it's dark. I understand why the blue stars can't be seen in the day, when the sky is blue, too, but I should be able to see the white and red ones. The others said it's because of the atmosphere. There is an atmosphere of oxygen around the world. The oxygen is necessary for breathing, they said. If there was none, we would all be discontinued.

All these lies. I'm getting fed up with them. I don't breathe! No one I know or have ever heard of does breathe! So this is just another of those lies. It's probably to cover up for even more of those bugs, crabs, slimes and other diseases haunting the world. Sometimes the world really sucks!

Maybe the peanut guy is actually better off wherever he is now.

Sheep people

"dear diary,

i have noticed that my little incarnation has been to this virtual africa, but it sounds like she's been there a lot. i don't really know, because i haven't visited the next world much lately. i have been busy, leaving serval to take care of herself.

i have been rehearsing with the others. or, rather, i've tried to stay out of their never ending discussions. we've been working on one song, mainly spending the time doing other things than music. it's a shame, because it's not a bad one. much of the lyrics are done, because i don't really get involved when the others don't agree. they never disagree with me, though. i don't think they dare. they've never played with a girl before. sometimes i think they've never been this close to a girl before, eĆ­ther. i wasn't picked by the band with the coolest band members.

however, we have decided on a name for the band now. strangely enough, there was no arguing whatsoever about it. so now we're "the sheep people". the guy that i know best, and who asked me to join them, is called "running sheep". he's on keyboards. the others are "eating sheep" and "sheared sheep". i myself am "pretty sheep".

i've been thinking of bringing our music (whenever there will be any) to next life, to see if i can have them play it in the club where serval goes dancing. that would be great fun.
