Some thoughts for Sunday afternoon.

It is possible to write an entire English coursework in five hours as long as you are prepared to accept that it will be shit.
*
Excess cheese sandwich consumption is probably the reason why I keep having nightmares about being broken into little pieces.
*
When a Brazilian guy chats you up on the bus to Waterloo the natural reaction is to be flattered. The natural reaction is not to become confused and scared and weird and spend the rest of the day quietly hating yourself.
*
If I was a Russian Orthodox Christian in 1666, I like to think I would be one of those who defied Nikon's reforms, became an Old Believer and moved to the Urals. In reality though I'd probably just accept that now everyone had to make the sign of the cross with three fingers, not two, because at the end of the day does it really matter that much?
*
The above explains why I'm not religious.
*
Girls who totter about everywhere in stupidly high heels that SHOULD kill their feet and leave them crippled with achilles tendonitis and yet are somehow fine? I hate them.
*
When I'm upset I generally can't stand talking to people, in fact all I can do then is mope around and make lists and write bad poems and sit there going all melancholy over beans on toast and see how long I can go without saying anything. Basically I like to just avoid people.
*
This makes me a crap girlfriend.
*
Injury is dull.
*
The BBC show is on Tuesday and yet - whisper it! - I don't actually know anything about Russian poetry.
*
Rest? Please? Soon?

I think yours does sound like the natural reaction to being chatted up on a bus. It'd certainly be my reaction, if that helps at all.

I'm sorry you're having such a stressy time, though. Don't beat yourself up about things. And maybe have fewer cheese sandwiches?
