And so it has come to an end. My long weekend, extending by one day for E-learning day. This has allowed me to fully enjoy myself and allow me to look forward to a 3-day schoolweek.

However, it saddens me to think that all the fun I had over the weekend is now coming to an end. On Friday night, I had a not-so-fun, but deeply satisfying struggle with an inorganic chemistry report. Many thanks to Hongjie for coming up with that equation. Even with my sleep issues, and general feeling of lethargy throughout the whole of Saturday, I managed to remain content, for I knew that the very next day, I would be meeting the KI semicircle again.

And what fun it was. It was truly a great escape from the tortures of poly life. And by “tortures”, I mean “surrounded by sheer intellectual disability”. The sense of escapism was paramount, on that day, as we chatted about certain things, and admired many medieval and futuristic weapons. The day rounded off nicely with a concert, and I could also look forward to another day of relaxation.

Relaxation, being a period of time when I am not surrounded by idiots.

I took the opportunity to slay demons, and take over the world once again. I was happy. I was satisfied. It was surreal. It was the best weekend I have had in a very long time.

Today, however, I have realised that I am going back to the place that I was so happy not to be in. It really feels like I had been temporarily taken out of a horrible, depressing Matrix, and now I’m going back. Back to this figurative, suffocating uterus, filled with slimy amniotic retard-fluid…

Utterly depressing. I’m looking forward to the June break.
