nowhere man.

He's a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody.

Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere Man please listen,
You don't know what you're missing,
Nowhere Man,the world is at your command.

He's as blind as he can be,
Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?

Nowhere Man, don't worry,
Take your time, don't hurry,
Leave it all till somebody else
lends you a hand.

Doesn't have a point of view,
Knows not where he's going to,
Isn't he a bit like you and me?

Nowhere Man please listen,
you don't know what you're missing
Nowhere Man, the world is at your command.

He's a real Nowhere Man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody.
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody.
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody.


i've heard this song so many times, but i never really "heard" it and what it was saying until this past weekend. it started playing while i was driving and halfway through i really started to listen and comprehend the lyrics i was singing. and i realized how amazing this song is, and how i feel i can relate so much to it at the moment.

i've been saying that i feel like nothing is happening in my life and i'm not doing anything to work towards my goals. i feel like a nowhere man. this has been especially so during this past year at nau. i was a nowhere man, sitting in my nowhere land, flagstaff, making all my nowhere plans, becoming a photographer but not working towards that goal at all.

i feel like in the past few months i haven't had an opinion for anything. well, not really the past few months, more like my whole life. i have opinions, but sometimes i keep them to myself, making it seem like i don't have a point of view. and for a lot of things i don't actually have a solid opinion, mostly because i don't know enough about it to form one. but i'd like to know more, create opinions, sound well rounded and educated.

i feel like a nowhere man sometimes :/ but the lines, "nowhere man, don't worry, take your time, don't hurry" give me hope. i know it's probably not supposed to because of the next line, "Leave it all till somebody else lends you a hand" but i still love the first part. i may be a nowhere man right now, but i shouldn't worry. i'm taking my time and i shouldn't hurry into things. i have all summer to enjoy myself and to work towards not being a nowhere man. i think i was these words tattooed on me. not sure where, but i want it.

i haven't really blogged much this summer, but it really has been great. so far i've driven a lot, went to two band concerts, gotten frozen yogurt too many times, been to asudl pre audition clinics, been hated, been loved, built forts, watched lots of tv, wasted time, talked, dealt with drama, had fantastic nights. i really haven't been on the computer very much. my current facebook status is from two days ago. i've talked to tj every single day (except yesterday) through either facebook or text message. i've spent time with friends. i've spent time with family. i've been job hunting with devon. it's seriously been amazing so far, and i'm only two weeks in. i'm hoping to get a job soon. i'm hoping the summer gets better and better.
