Holiday

When you’re on a holiday
You can’t find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I wanna feel it too

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

– Weezer, Island in the Sun

I’m going on holiday.

I don’t know how my brain will react and I’m not sure if I’ll find the words to write here every day.

It’s good to have a rest. I’m not going to pretend to be a writer for a week and see how I feel.

I’ll stare at the sea for a bit. Explore. Experience.

I’ll be back soon…
