I'm feeling poetic. So sue me.

For the uninformed, I am in the quagmire of trials, hence the absence of posts. Irony takes its form again in the weather, which has been absolutely beautiful and sunshiny since day 1 of my trials, the kind of beautiful that makes you want to pirouette out in a white frock, sprinkle daisies and sing The Hills are Alive. Unfortunately, last minute study means I'm trapped in my room desperately ploughing through 2 years worth of work. And still the sun mocks me.

So the other day I just had to go out and decided to walk up to K-mart for supplies (which is about an hour away on foot, plenty time to enjoy the weather). Feeling on top of the world, I grabbed my wallet and phone, cheerily signed out with the staff and marched triumphantly out - in the wrong direction.

Knowing me, I didn't realize until 10 minutes into it when I saw McDonalds looming up ahead of me. That's not right, I thought, McDs is on the way to the city and K-Mart is in the opposite direction. At this point I could hear Nature suffocating with laughter, undoubtedly causing 15 flash floods to occur in various locations around the world.

I surrendered, took the next tram that came and sulked all the way up to K-Mart.

PS: Why is it only now, when I can't afford the time, that I find so many uses for it other than study?! Lately, I've been taken by an overpowering desire to read up on Greek mythology, the Victorian era, Bertrand Russell and of course, slash. Mmm slashy clexy goodness. *bonk*
