Funk - dejected mood.
Deject - to depress the spirits of
The last time I was in a funk it was a 3-day marathon of The OC, this time it's Greek.
It's been a while since I've been back from the Big Apple and I can't seem to get Alicia Keys' voice out of my mind. The city was amazing! It was an unknown world to me that stimulated all 5 senses! Every corner there was something new to taste... down the street there was something to look at... 5 feet away was the sound of a honking horn... your body was warmed up underground waiting for the subway... and the smell of the city reminded you why trees are
important. At times the pain in my feet brought me back home, reminding me that walking as a form of transportation was a joke back in Texas. New York was a blast.
Texas, our Texas! All hail the mighty state!
Going from the largest city back to the largest state in America, I can't help but to contemplate the differences. As big as our great state may be, it is far beyond the lifestyle in New York. Life seems to stand still here. You can't look out the window and expect to see people walking to work. Coming from a walking community to a city where a car is a necessity has brought me to this funk. I can't seem to get anywhere!
This funky feeling has gotten me to watching GREEK!!! For those of you who've yet to catch on to this series, it's about college life in a very true, yet corny way. The acting is horrible and towards the end of season 2 is when the drama gets exciting.
"So what have you been doing?" --- The question I HATE to answer with all my heart. What the heck do you think I have been doing??!! I'm literally stuck!! I feel like I jumped out of the boat knowingly that I can't swim, yet I try anyways. Then there I am and the panic starts to overcome me, yet no one wants to throw me a life saver. No one notices I'm struggling to stay afloat. My pride with holds my screams, yet the splashing I'm making doesn't seem to attract any attention at all. I'm almost to the point of drowning.
Someone please go fix the Lex!!! That's all I ask.
