Questions for the Universe to answer.
The world is a complicated place. And I have questions. Many questions.
Firstly, why do people try to pretend they know you?
Even if its someone you have known for years, they still think they can control you. They tell you who you can be friends with, what to wear, and all that shit. The worst of it is when they tell you what YOU are like. Oddly enough, I have been close to me for the last 18 and a half years, and I know me much better than they do. I have developed a personality in the 10 years since we last had a real conversation. Family for example, talk to you in ridiculous fake accents and it drives you crazy and they know it, but they do it anyway until you want to smack them in the face and destroy every inanimate object in a 10 mile radius just with the power of your extreme pissed-off-ness. This might just be me, but I still want to rant about it.
Or just because some distant relative has read something about you on facebook, myspace or similar, it gives them the right to gossip about you as if they have been close to you for years and aren’t just nosy interfering cows. (Hi! Yes, you. You know who you are. Leave a comment if you think I am addressing you in this post)
Secondly, why is it the more you worry about exams, the easier they are?
This confuses me, simply because it shouldn’t logically happen. Surely, the more worked up you are about a problem, the harder it will be perceived as, just because of the tension and confusion in your mind? You end up being so worried you don’t realise how simple the problem in question is.
I have now done 2 of my 7 exams and have got off pretty lightly, all things considered.
I am apparently going to lunch some time during the exams, with various people. I hope this involves them setting up the desk next to me with a small china tea set and a candelabra, while they procede to talk in very English voices about the latest going ons in the press (“Oh, I know Darrrrling… I completely agree that thingy should go and talk to them about the very pressing issue outlined in the Times.” “Yes, completely. Would you like some more tea with your crumpets darrrrling?”). I would enjoy this just for the look on the invigilators faces. Classic. Lolz.
There should be some pretty good photos of me burning all my old school books coming sometime after the 19th, so watch this space. (fire= pretty= J)
