You know those strange movies that start at the end......

And then it ends back at the beginning, which of course is actually the end....well I had one of those moments today, except that instead of being a cleverly turned over montage film, it happened to be a comical turn around in my own life.

I couldn't help but think of sitting my own hsc exams a few years ago, and getting my brother to sing the harmony for the song I'd chosen "Ordinary People", it was the first time I'd heard him sing and at the time it was a surprise that he was such a good singer as we'd never heard him sing before..ever. Then to cut a long story short, I went off and had an adventure and a half in Japan, got arrested, got deported and now as of this morning I found myself in that same room, singing that same song, except this time it was me doing the Backing Vocals.

Of course you mustn't worry, I can just see the cogs turning inside your darling little heads right now, I'm not depressed at all but I did find the whole affair rather hilarious, I guess I just didn't see myself back in that room, doing that. But I guess that's a testament to just how un-expected life can be.
