Yeah, I skipped a week. NBD. But it's going well. I've come to terms with the fact that although it's SCHOOL AND I HAVE TO WORK HARD!, it's still JUST school, if that makes sense. Like, if I fuck it up because it's just not my thing, then heck, it's just not my thing, right? Like, the best I can do is try my hardest, and if it works out, then it works out, and if it doesn't, then back to the start, but that's okay. There are plenty of things you can do with your life and feel content besides academia. Here is a list:
1. Boob-evaluator
2. Wine-tester
3. Beer-sampler
4. Quesadilla inspector
5. Hot-wing expert
6. Humidor enthusiast
7. Condor-tamer (Howie)
8. Baby-kisser
9. French person-handler
10. Boxer
See? Weird! But I am enjoying school and I am dealing with it way better now. But there are one or two things that suck.
I found that the thing that does suck about school is NOT the reading, and it's NOT the professors, and it's NOT the material, and it's NOT even the papers; it's the other grad students. No joke. Because grad students are like the worst people in the world. I wish I was kidding, but holy crap, these people are awful. (Edited for non-judgmental sexiness).
And then there are the people that say stuff totally irrelevant or counter-productive to the conversation, and it makes me want to crap in their skull. It's either when they say something to sound smart, or when they nit-pick something that doesn't really pertain to the conversation. For example,
Professor: "Here's what they call philosophical concept X."
Fuckface Student #1: "That reminds me of this really obscure book I read... etc."
Fuckface Student #2: "Define the word 'what'..."
Me: SHUT UP OR I WILL KILL YOU, AND I AM NOT KIDDING.
Jesus: "That ain't no shit!"
Audience: "HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
So, I guess that's pretty much it. My school-week is over, so I am going to go drink whiskey. SEE YOU ON THE FLIPSIDE!
Sincerely
Cory Alan
