11am
i have a test today.
i studied 'optimisation and complex computational
linear algebra' all day yesterday. from 11am
until 11pm. i have always been the ultimate
crammer. it has gotten me this far, so why turn
my back on a good thing?
i get really crabby when i get stressed. i was
stressed yesterday. everyone knows not to disturb
me when i am studying. the mere presence of
another person in my room causes me to bite their
head off.
here is my exam ritual:
* one or two days before the exam:
cram, cram, cram. get mad at anyone who comes
within a 10m radius of me.
* morning before the exam: cram
some more and go over notes. try to ignore the
knots in my stomach.
* during the exam: lapse into
what seems like a trance. all information flows
out and i have no memory of the events at a later
date.
* immediately after the exam:
have a beer.
isn't it incredible how you spend so much time
worrying about remembering everything for an
exam, only to forget everything you retained
immediately after the exam? the material you have
spent the past couple of days agonising over
flows directly from your brain, down your arm and
out through your pen, never to be thought about
again.
everyone knows that the brain has a terminal
capacity. once it is full, nothing else can be
crammed in. this is the reason we forget so much
of what we have 'learnt.' we are merely making
room for more useless information that we will no
doubt forget in a few months time. well, that is
my theory anyway.

4pm
finished the test. i completed it in 40 mins. we
were given one and a half hours to do it. yipya!
the knots and butterflies in my stomach are gone.
as expected, i have no memory of what it was i
was tested on. the information has already been
erased to make room for the information i must
'learn' for my philosophy test on wednesday.
listening to| triple j ... yes, i
have no idea why either
8.30pm
apparently i
am gay. so is my best friend brodie. you see, one
night when i was very drunk and brodie and i were
leaning all over each other more than usual, i
may or may not have jokingly told a guy we went to
school with that brodie and i were 'seeing' each
other. apparently he believed me. oops.
brodles says: i forgot to tell
you - i saw m*****w e*****t last nite
brodles says: i was sitting with
tori on the floor at the northern
brodles says: not goood
brodles says: he gave me that
look like oh theres brodie and her girlfriend....
specialK says: hahhahahahhaa
brodles says: kate it is all
your fault - he stilll soooo thinks that i'm gay!
specialK says: no im ur
girlfriend!!! dammit!!
brodles says: i know i'm sorry
brodles says: but i told tori
the story and she was like oh that means i'm gay
too, by association
brodles says: and i'm like yep
brodles says: and then shes like
oh so everytime he sees me he'll think i'm gay
tooo...its infecting more people kate
brodles says: its like your
powdy rumour**
specialK says: hahahhaa
brodles says: i swear i'll go to
our reunion and spend the whole nite affirming my
heterosexuality
** i deny any allegations that it was me who
started the rumour that ian haug from
powderfinger was gay after getting sick of all
the girlies that drool over him and say nothing
but 'i love ian, he is sexy.' i deny implying
that ian haug may have hit on brian molko at the
big day out. i also deny alleging that soggy sao
and the attack of the killer red hat man left the
big day out because ian did not reciprocate
killer red hat man's affections. none of it is
true. i swear. i also deny deriving any pleasure
when i found out about the fun the rest of
powderfinger had when they heard about the
rumour.
have you ever heard of a bus driver who solicits
passengers late at night? no neither had i...
until this afternoon.
apparently brodie and tori walking home on
saturday night when a bus pulled up and the
driver asked them where they were going. when
they told him, he said 'jump in, i'll give ya a
ride.' the strangest thing is, they lied about
where they were going and were dropped off less
than half way from tori's place. the drunken
fools. though, maybe it was a wise decision. a bus
driver soliciting passengers is kinda freaky.
maybe he was the same bus driver from jen's journey. wonder if he was wearing a uniform?
