(Ah, for a change, this is a better screen, better keyboard and very much better connection in the manner of ‘slightly’ and ‘possibly-faster-if-you-look-at-it-positively’, and it’s University stuff, so I’m glad and satisfied and dead bored anyhow).

Last week contained:

A downed Internet connection, due to a functioning modem that didn’t work.

Three exam papers that I would, given the ability, break into the school office to alter its results because if I don’t, they go on the net as model answer for the perfect sort of idiocy.

Lots and lots of procrastinating. Jolly.

This week starts with:

An Internet connection, revived from much fire and ashes, in the form of a brand new modem that is marble white and looked like a pita pocket bread with black jam as its fillings.

A mistake, which led me to wake at 6 in the morn, sardined in a delayed train, and humiliating myself, because I thought my exam starts at 9. It starts 2, with me here, wasting time like overflowing buckets of water.

A broken down laptop. I grieve.

Ah, but then again, it’s Exam Week(s), so if bad things come in throngs, it’s because that’s the way the world should be, with the sky up and the earth down, where fire burn and water drown, and where sometimes things ought to go right up the viridian alley where it hurts and stings.
