this morning i woke up early. only to think it was too early - and hence i fell back asleep. next time i woke up, i'm late for class... and reluctant to spend the effort travelling to school. oh well, i rationalised: why not spend the day at home fruitfully? except i knew it was the devil telling me to slack... and i also knew that there was pretty much no way i could spend the day at home fruitfully. hence i spent the day at home lazing around yet again... moving from bed to tv to laptop in aimless fashion. is this how an undergrad is supposed to spend his time? especially when he's in bloody-nus with multiple deadlines and a rapidly diminishing term hounding him?
why do i ask questions when i already know the answers - worse, why do i ignore these answers.
sic, nihilism.
