rainy day

whoo hee, its been a hard week. my parents are away in an uber dangerous country, i'm currently unemployed and oh the honours marks came out. i'm sure you can guess from that, my mark weren't too good. it was CRAP...and i'm not the only one who thinks that, my supervisor was furiated, i definately deserve better. I said that to the marker and he goes 'how did i become an expert on thesis marking?'... need i say more, i have never better a bigger dickhead than this guy. But i wont bitch, i'll tell you about somethin that took me a bit higher this week.

i was walking home on a tuesday evening, it was pouring down rain, a bit windy and the night flashed daylight every couple of seconds. i was listening to alanis M new release 'Crazy'. 'we're never gonna survive if we dont get a little crazy'...i think thats how the lyric goes. half way towards my home, in the rain. i closed my umbrella, and walked, smiling in the rain. i saw puddles in the dark. i splashed, i splashed my good shoes. i couldn't wipe the grin off my face. it was somethin i hadn't done since i was a kid. my brother was of course horrified and puzzled why i would do such a thing. but i think he eventually got it

the more i think, the more i know that in the end my parents are coming home to me alive and well, eventually i'll get a job, and i'll love it, and my mark's will be sorted out. and the marker, well i hope he gets run over by a mini, or his umbrella closes on him voluntarily on a stormy rainy day ;-)

(ps. seriously, your mark was not *that* bad. not great either, but don't fret too much. ~i'm sure it will work out...)
