Is this burning an eternal flame? Sorry, it's just a rash.

Oh man, today I was totally rugged up. 3 layers of tops and a thick jacket and scarf over the top. It was uncomfortable when I tried to touch my toes to stretch. And by uncomfortable, I mean it was physically impossible to do without tearing my clothing and/or muscles. Or lack thereof.

It was nearing 3pm and I'd decided that I had had enough of uni for the day. I'd begun exhibiting 2 of the 3 major pre-meltdown warning signs. I had to get out before it was too late. Hah, I make it sound like I was about to turn into The Hulk.

Indicators of over-exposure to assessments:
- eyes shutting on their own accord
- losing all means of communication to grunting and pouting
- unprovoked hysterical weeping

So everybody knows that before leaving any place, measures should be taken to ensure that the bladder has been emptied. Needing to pee when there's no toilets around is rather unpleasant. I had to squat pee in a Cabra carpark between cars once. Most shameful moment of my life, it was. Stop judging me, I was 4 years old, okay?! My parents would have smacked the pee out of me if I didn't do what they told me. Which was to pee in the carpark.

I digress. My apologies.

Anyway so I went to the bathroom at uni. When I was bending over to wipe the toilet seat (with low quality bark-like paper* that I'm forking out like 70-something thousand dollars for)... my scarf unraveled and plunged into the toilet bowl.

Damn it, I liked that scarf.






*As opposed to the high quality bark paper, of course.

But to be honest, that's quite a funny story! :P

Yeh, what happened to the scarf? you didn't complete the story!

I take my phone with me and i didn't want to leave it in my back pocket so i shoved it into my boots, in the space between my leg and the boot.

I am sure many asian children have had similar Cabramatta carpark (suppressed) memories. That you have just uncovered again.

Mehopes your assignments are not getting the better of you.
