What the fuck is [GIRL] talking about

Spacing out.

I'm sitting here writing to no one, as always.

[GIRL] is sitting next to me, super blogging and doing her thing. Writing a bajillion different paragraphs knowing very well her blog will be read by at least 5 or 6 people.

I can't say i'm jealous however.

Spacing out, i'm doing it right now believe it or not.

She's so cute, I wonder when i'll get over her.

Huh.

I wrote this near the last day of school, with her sitting not 5 ft from me.

I'm writing now again. at 4:18 am on the first friday of summer.

Why can't i sleep. Why can't i return my thoughts to my head.

Ah well. No one actually reads this anyways. And i can't say i'm angry about that. I exist in my own mind more so than i do in this light. I decided to answer her question.

Where does the mind go when we space out?

Lets call this place X. Our mind resorts to going to X when A. our mind is not engaged enough to hold completely to the reality at hand or B. we don't have enough strength to stay in the 'real' world. X is a place where our mind can do whatever it likes, it's the dream world. Like a computer simulation, the only limitations are the ones your mind sets. The limitations of communication and physics minus of course the popular deviants such as flying or teleporting. All of these limits are set by your mind. And of course, All limits can be broken, if you know where they are.

Humor me. Close your eyes and try to clear your head of all thought. do it right now.

You couldn't do it could you? That's because you don't think you can.

Now try this, Close your eyes, take a deep breath in and clear your mind. Don't try, just do it. Wipe your mind of everything, don't think of any visual or audio aid to help you. You're not a computer disk being deleted, your not a chalk board being erased. Just CEASE everything. Completely devoid. Still didn't work, but you were closer.

Now lets take a trip to X. All you'll need is a ping pong ball, something to cut it with, and a radio. Oh yea, and somewhere soft to lay down doesn't hurt.

Cut the ping pong ball in half. Put one half on each eye. Now turn on the radio to white noise. lay down and try to clear your thoughts again. You're about the enter X.

Explanation? The ping pong balls block your vision, so even if your mind wants to collect visual data, it cant. The radio will fill your audio receptors with a never changing stream of sound. Lay there for long enough with a clear mind. And your brain will take a trip to X. You'll start to dream or think ( since you're not asleep ) and your thoughts will be raging. You might hear the voice of a dead relative or relive a moment in grade school. You might fight in a war or even go deep sea diving.

Whatever happens, you'll be living in X.

Now once you stop this. Immediately write down everything you remember.

This sheet of paper will tell you a lot about how your mind works, What your heart desires and how your emotions effect your life.

ahaha, Have a good trip my friends.
