On This Grey Wednesday



So I'm pulling another all-nighter, after handing in the worst tort assignment in the history of the obsessive blame game we call negligence I'm expected to be able to prepare for a business French test?  Vous avez tort! Ce n'est pas digne d'un être humain.


I'm not actually sure if it is indeed Grey outside either, it could turn out to be the sunniest Wednesday on the planet. Since I've been up all night I will likely sleep through any sunshine that manages to seep through the netting of the Burqa clad sky. (Poetic I know), I suppose it all depends on whether you're an optimist or a defeatist cynic like me.


I always treat myself to scrambled eggs on campus every Wednesday, probably the only day of the week that I actually eat anything for breakfast. Every morning I climb mount Olympus to get to campus, I kid you not the gradient is insane, the other day a girl was run over by a car while climbing the same mountain, with the result that I pass by her funeral bouquets twice every day, may she rest in peace whoever she was, I've always thought about stopping to pray for her but it is difficult to do something so conspicuous when submerged in a sea of judgmental students, not to mention how pissed off people would be if I stopped in the middle of the footpath, that's right my not stopping has nothing to do with the stares I imagine I would attract.


Notably her death became the subject of a class on negligent driving, her memory... forever embedded in our lecture recordings. I wonder if her estate will ever be able to claim anything from the motor insurance bureau.


I should mention that I don't know who Joseph Kony is! (Don't bother telling me I'm just one of those people  destined never to know) I think it's wonderful when people rally together for a cause they believe in, only causes that have to be explained by a 5 year old pointing to the picture of a "Baddie" make me want to ignore them completely. Joseph Kony ... Nope doesn't ring any bells.


The world after I graduate is just a big blur at the moment, applying to firms is a harrowing process, I barely have the time to organise my own thoughts nowadays let alone read anything that isn't a case-file. I hate this feeling of uncertainty, I hate the people around me, I hate the world at large and I hate having to come up with inventive bullshit for every vacation scheme application. I hate the way you get rejection letters written by HR wankers wishing you the best in your career. Thank you for wasting a day of your life filling in a never-ending application form now please proceed to fuck off.


Screw it I say, I just want to give this test and get back to FF6. Oh sweet Terra, sweet escapism!

  1. Yayyy you hate HR and I landed my arse right into a HR job I never applied for and it's doing my nut in. Hope things get better soon and you stop hating everything, the girl who got run over is sad news, and if you know Pashto then you already know what a Kony is :D

    1. As long as you never send me a rejection letter I think I'll be okay haha. You're right I do know what a Kony is, did you hear? One of the founders of invisible children was arrested for masturbating in public just recently XD.

      I've been waiting for your replies I swear, since nobody else really seems to comment I feel like you're the only person who reads my blog (which is a good thing because I can go bat-shit insane while ranting about people I don't like without them ever coming across my opinions).

      I do apologise if the quality of my writing has gone down the drain, circumstances have led me to make rather emotionally charged posts lol!

    2. Kony2012 to Horny2012, of course I know lol.

      Sorry you've been waiting, I was going through one of those phases you're going through right now and I disassociated myself from the blog world. (Though I kept tweeting. Strange.)

      For the record, you mustn't think there's a certain quality or standard to a blogpost that you have to maintain, because I love bat-shit insane posts just as much :D

  2. LMAO @ the Kony talk. You know what's even more funnier than Kony Baba? :p Ashton's last name (that actor, y'know). BIG hahahaha!

    P.S. I've heard too many horror stories about Mt. Olympus! I can't believe you still hike around it, man. Scaaary.

    1. Lol kachar. My own kuna can't believe it trust me - it has developed climbing muscles disproportionate to the rest of me.
