Grand Re Entry

Yes, it took me quite a lot longer than I thought to come back to this. I tend to get far more stuff done during the term when I have so little time to do it, and during the holidays I lapse into inertia. Still, at least I remembered this time. About 2 years ago I started another blog, wrote one grand post, debasing the Afrikaans language, and then promptly forgot about the whole thing.

I'm supposed to be going to Gandalf's tonight was my friends, but the prospect of spending the next few hours being crushed by masses of sweaty, smelly teenagers, listening to terrible metal - the foulest genre in human culture - with a killer migraine, when I can't even drink - taking hayfever medication and asprin do not mix well with alcohol, makes the whole thing seem quite unappealing. I think the whole scene is quite unappealing, and pretentious. All these people who try so fucking hard to be original, or rebellious or alternative - or whatever the hell people think they're doing when they listen to shitty metal bands and mosh, or go to Gandalf's, or die their hair the minute they get to high school and realise that it's what everyone else is doing - are, ironically, all the same.

I don't think it's possible to be original any more. After 2000 years I think humanity has pretty much used up it's quota of original thought. Still, it's better that people try, and hate the status quo, than just give in and be dull.

Famous first words

I have no idea what to say. I'm sure eventually it will dawn on me and I will wow the cyberworld with my brilliant prose, but for now I think I'll just talk crap. I stole this name from my sister - yes, I am deeply unoriginal and lack the initiative to come up with a half-decent, made-up name myself - but imitation is apparently the most sincere form of flattery. I'm sick right now, or rather, refusing to take any medicine so I don't get any better and have to go back to school. Although now I just got a get better SMS from a teacher and now feel like a mildly terribly person. Still, I have too much work to do to bother with school right now.
Perhaps tomorrow or the next day I'll post something else, and perhaps by then it will have dawned on me and I will wow the cyberworld with my brilliant prose. Or perhaps I will do my homework and forget about this. Tune in in the near future the find out!
