Da da da da da….. Writing about nothing in particular. Is this damn blog still worth visiting? HAH! Exams mean everything to us now, huh? Everyone’s caught up in the rat race to getting that wonderful 4 A’s, to great University Degrees, to wealth, to social perfection, to love, to spiritual well-being, what have you. Or is everyone caught up in getting OUT of the rat race? But how can you get out of it if you deliberately put yourself in? Might as well fall out, take a breather, drink lemonade and slack some? But then again, wouldn’t that be defined as being lazy? Unless of course you already have a masterplan to quit college, a crystal clear mind-frame on how you’d start to create and build a powerful new operating system to battle Microsoft and Apple in your very own garage just like Steve Jobs or the Great Mr. Gates? Since when do I have a garage? So many questions. Even more answers. And the worst thing is, every answer differs when you sweep across individuals. It’s up to perception, or you might even want to call it definitions. What is the point of trying so hard? What are we all trying to achieve? To be happy in this life or the next? What is the next life anyway? (I can feel a barrage of answers to that even before I post this meaningless sea of words) What if this is your last chance? Will you lose yourself in this life? You’ve only got one shot, says Eminem. But who cares about some white guy trying to so hard be black anyway? Feeling tired, depressed, angry, emotional, volatile, aggravated, insulted, worn, torn, sad, insulted, fucked up or long-winded? Well, you’re not alone. In fact, the only person that’s alone will be someone who feels the exact opposite. Happiness will be like sadness without sadness, no? Well, all the more reason to return to our friggin’ books and calculators and data booklets and university prospectus and periodic tables and shit. Run and run and run in the direction where everyone else is running. For all you know the road leads to a dead end. But ah, if you turn, would you reach a meadow, or will that be a short cut to that dead end? Up to you. Take it from me. Prelims really rocks.
