Okay, I am pissed off! I am so so angry. The only thing I EVER watch on TV anymore is one show. One single show, consisting of political and social commentary done by one of the very few intelligent TV-show hosts in my country. He is brilliant, and as one would expect, with intelligence comes anger towards the retarded system which governs my fair land, and especially towards the maggot infested idiots who support it and thrive in it. I share in his anger and frustration but one particular subject really found an echo in my brain. A subject, related, of course, to education.

Wow, loooong time no write…Sorry. The past two weeks have been unimaginably crappy. School has tormented me more than ever, an exam has been failed once more (it wasn’t exactly a surprise) and I’ve had two very emotionally-consuming events. I shall tell you all about them.

So 13 is a crappy number? Think again. 13 is a flipping awesome number and this bizarre month of March (bizarre because it keeps snowing!), it has brought me nothing but joy. I’ll tell you all about it!

Three weeks ago, when I realized in horror that House MD would come back with an episode on the 8th of March, I panicked and almost freaked out! I cannot leave without my House fix, I seriously cannot. I am addicted to it, and it’s probably not Hugh Laurie’s fault (yes it is, for being a damned genius), and I could not fathom my existence without my weekly fix. And finally, I am complete again. And the episode was absolutely splendid.

Some years ago (I think I was in the 11th grade), I found a book in my favourite bookstore which bore a name and a cover suggesting that it hailed from the fantasy genre, one of my favourite genres, to be precise. It was “The Knight” by Gene Wolfe. I had never heard of the author before, mostly because of the fact that the bookstore system in my country is still developing. Books in English (the only language I read in willingly) are becoming more and more every year, and we are on the right track. Anyway, I got this book while I was basically a huge fan of fantasy literature. I still am, but my tastes have evolved in terms of range, quality, detail and genre. But this book, The Knight is special to me because it is one of the two books I could not finish when I began and it took me 2 years to pick it up again and re-read it. It was a great experience and I’ll explain why.

Due to the anger issues of last week, I decided to drag my boyfriend to the Alice In Wonderland movie on the premiere day at my second home, the Mall’s Cinema. Not that he didn’t want to see it (he is a Tim Burton fan after all), but we had been planning to go together with our best friends (and we will go next week, obviously), but I was so depressed and angry last week, I knew I HAD to see it or I would simply become more violent as time passed. For me, anything that Tim Burton touches is sacred gold and his movies are immortal, sublime and will last forever. This is the kind of movie that a crazed fan like me needs to see on the very first day.

Okay, this will be a very short post, more like a filler, but I simply fill too inspired right now not to write. The sad fact is that lately I’ve been either too busy, or too lazy, or in such a bad disposition, I found myself unable and unwilling to post. But it’s not fair to my poor little blog, so I will try to be more committed than that.

Ah, the great day in which the rest of the world doesn’t do anything special in particular, but which is still the most important day of my year has arrived! Yep, my birthday! It was last week but I was far too lazy to post on the 27th of February, so I’ll post now. It shall be a post describing the despicable first week of the new semester, containing some thoughts regarding my new age and a very important reminder about the reasons I am still torturing myself physically, emotionally and lastly, mentally in the university I hate more and more each semester.

As I promised in my previous post, I will write about the importance of music during finals. Since my winter session is OVER, I can now say that I would not have survived without music. I was basically kept alive, or in certain stages of “alive” with the help of my beloved soundtracks, playlists, oldies and newcomers. I will concoct a list of suggestions for all music lovers. Note that I said “music lovers”, not slaves of noise pollution, as is a vast part of my country’s population.

Finally OVER! Ola, people! I am back and I have missed my poor, ignored little blog, but I’ve been away on my sacred mountain trip. And when I say sacred, I don’t mean anything even remotely related to religion, ewww. But as I’m sure you know (if you’ve read “memoirs-of-2009-part-2-part-b” you should know), one of my life’s main plans is to start an annual tradition which consists of heading for my favourite mountain resort the day after finals. Well, that’s what I did, details about that coming soon (next post).
