All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world mad world
Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world ... world
Enlarge your world
Mad world
If not for them i so totally agree.... what mad twisting of fate this really is. Flaws in the pattern?

Went to school all nervous for pw oral presentation assesment, nearly threw my breakfast up. Felt that i have done OP reasonably well, most of everything went fine. Stayed to wait for XH so that we could go and have lunch together. turned out my luck is so fked that we ended up running into ttwl in the corridor who effectively proceeded to cause more stress and waste everyone's time, srsly just fuck off la.anywayz went off to jurong point where things turned out all weirdly and in a way for the better. Watched CBL play sango for a peroid of time before meeting iz. turned out that i was asked to go to his house instead. rammed sango for a while and was finally lucky enough to strike a 3.1 LE. Managed to forget a large part of the ttwl nonsense while i was there. thx iz ! hope this nonsense will soon end.

Sorry with these quotes i dont mean to offend, its just weirdly true at times haha=)
" Women, are like mules, wait, no goats. Women are like goats, except every flaming one thinks she's a horse instead, and a prize racing mare to boot"
"Reasoning with awoman is impossible, its like..... Well, reasoning with a woman is like sitting down to a friendly game of dice. Only the woman refuses to acknowledge the basic bloody rules of the game. A man, he'll cheat you - but he'll do it honestly. He'll use loaded dice, so you think you are losing by chance. And if you aren't clever to spot what he's doing, then mabe he deserves to take your coin. And thats that."
" A woman , though, she'll sit down to that same game and she'll smile, and act like she's going to play. Only when its her turn to throw, she'll toss a pair of her own dice that are blank on all six sides. Not a single pip showing.She'll inspect her throw, then she'll look up at you and say, 'clearly i just won'"
"Now you'll scratch your head and look at the dice. Then you'll look up at her, then down at the dice again.'but there aren't any pips on these dice' you'll say "
"yes there are she'll say. and both dice rolled a one"
" thats exactly the number you need to win, you'll say"
"What a coincidence, she'll reply, then begin to scoop up your coins. And you'll sit there, trying to wrap your head about what just happened. And you'll realise something. A pair of ones isn't the winning throw! Not when you threw a six on your turn. That means she needed a pair of twos instead! Excitedly, you'll explain what you've discovered. Only then you know what she'll do?"
" then she will reach over, and rub the blank faces of her dice. And then, with a perfectly straight face, she will say , i am sorry. there was spots of dirt on the dice. Clearly you can see that they actually came up as twos! and she'll belive it. She'll bloody believe it!"
" Only thats not the end of it"
" She scoops up all of your coins, and then every other woman in the room will come over to congratulate her on throwing that pair of twoa! The more you complain, the more of those bloody women will join the argument. you will be outnumbered in a moment and each of those women will explain to you how those dice clearly read twos, and how you really need to stop behaving like a child. Every flaming one of them will see twos ! Even the prudish woman who has hated your woman frrom birth- since your womans granny stole the other woman's honeycake recipe when they were both maids- that woman will side against you"
" by the time they are done, you will be left with no coin, several lists worth of errands to run and what clothing to wear and a splitting headache. You will sit there and stare at the table and begin to wonder, just maybe, if those dice didnt read twos after all. IF only to preserve what's left of your sanity. That's what it's like to reason with a woman , i tell you"
