May 13, 201312 yr I don't know why it popped into my mind. Maybe it's because I'm merrily working away with a good cup of coffee. Self-awareness. I worked damn hard at my postgraduate studies. But as an undergrad I was always turning stuff in late or not at all. etc. etc. I just realised with absolute clarity and certainty that with only one exception I handed stuff in badly or late because turning it in on time and to the desired standard was simply too incredibly boring to contemplate seriously. Given that I seem to have done OK out of it I can't feeling I did precisely the right thing, too. I can't tell you how good that feels. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
May 13, 201312 yr Agreed. That's all. I agree with that. I can't put effort into it if it's too boring. Edited May 13, 201312 yr by TrueNeutral
May 13, 201312 yr Author I just can't imagine how I could have not realised earlier, except maybe it wouldn't have made me so successful at dodging all the rules if I had. I mean I arsed around almost constantly, had a massive laugh and learned all the important things you need to know at that age. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H74ScaTLgiQ Perhaps more responsibly I learned how to talk to authority, organise stuff, be creative, and have a good time. Real life skills. LOL. Reminds me of that Russian joke about the officer cadets. [points for anyone who knows the joke] "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
