with my first academic year at St Andrews. Yesterday I was feeling the negative aspects of the end, today I am feeling excited for a free week and then coming home to the summertime.
Sustainable Development on Thursday went really well-I studied the right things and felt really prepared on my essays and like I didn't bullshit at all, which resulted in finishing 10 minutes early, despite only having 30 minutes per essay (4 essays). Nevertheless, lots of facts and statistics thrown about from good revision, and I felt good about it.
Psychology yesterday is a pain in the ass because the psychology department is either really good or really bad at making multiple choice questions, meaning that half the time you feel that there are 2 possible right answers, even if you're very comfortable with the topic, and have to pick one arbitrarily. This one will be the most luck-of-the-draw, but I felt alright about it.
Philosophy today reminded me of the feeling of taking a maths test...somewhat good, somewhat bad. The easy problems where you know the answer automatically. The really difficult, never-before-seen ones where you try to force your knowledge onto a question you've never seen and make it fit. It left me feeling tired but good.
And now? Is 11.30 AM to early to start drinking?
We'll see what this next week holds.

Soft Night
silent graffiti
sprawling words stretched out on cream pink walls
spattered from on high by the seagulls
that freewheeled and caw-cawed through aharsh pink sky
still graffiti
a motionless oasis
in violence, silent. calm,
but eagerly longing for discovery:
notice me!
here! I am out of place
no whitewashed walls
a monument TO MAN’S INGENUITY
no pyramids of the metropolis
only the loving work of boys
somewhere between testament and confession
they who posses nothing
but are the property of adults
spray themselves out on other adult property
this is mine! until the paint
is covered by another layer
dogs piss at a fire hydrant
silent graffiti
crackling ground under Nikes
and from
far off
the whirr of sirens.
