shared boredom
when one has better things to do in this life, a blog has to suffer. it becomes that secondary thing online with very little significance. i've been occupied with all manner of things which way surpass the cyber realm. B has been so good to me and i can only do my best to reciprocate.
today's a lazy sunday. to make matters worse i'm ultra skint, not a penny to lose (literally!!!). on such a day, i'd probably be at home, gawking at telly, fighting with my pillow or plucking my nose hairs but i'm here with B. ok, i'll admit i am bored to the bone. but really there's no better feeling than being bored with her. my frustrations seem to melt away and even if i just sit there and stare at her, i'll be content because i'll know that there's another soul that's just as sad as i am. being bored alone can drive anyone insane but being bored with someone else takes away that loneliness. i am also happy that i do not feel obliged to create some sham romantic outing just to pass time. B and i will just sit here and watch the clock tick away.
tomorrow lectures begin. i had my full induction on friday with my school of mathematics discussing all things academic. two of my lecturers were pretty inquisitive about my year abroad and were quizzing me about silicon valley. for a good fifteen minutes i felt important. they want to line me up to chat with second years who are considering the american option. i'll chat with anyone, anyday - just gimme the limelight!
