Holy Grail

 

It’s hardly a revelation that in the prioritising of tasks, homework is invariably on the bottom of the ladder. Faced with an essay, you find yourself strangely compelled to clean things, or perhaps catalog your book collection in Excel.[ftn]

The point has perhaps been overstated because everyone knows this. The reason I’m excited is because I’ve finally found a task that makes me want to do school work.

They are called Grapefruit articles. It’s amazing. I think “I really should write my Peter Pan review” and 10 minutes later I’m writing my practical report. It really is quite amazing.

In other news, I saw a 3 hour absurdist play on Friday called Rhinoceros – in which people turn into Rhinoceroses – because Sam told some girl he would see it. I had laughed a few times until we got up to the painfully long fourth scene where I started to feel like I was watching the end of RotK all over again.

Never mind.

  1. See, I knew grapefruit was good for something! Glad to hear the prac reports are getting done.

    Not enough plays have rhinocerouses in them. Or is it rhinoceri?

  2. No.

  3. La la la. Look everyone! My post is popular! With all these replies.

    This is cheating isn’t it?

  4. See, this is what happens when you don’t disable comments in some brutal attempt to make me fiddle your weblog settings. You get comments.

    Hah.

  5. Are there really people out there without game consoles? Is there some kind of charity I can donate to for this?

  6. You’ve got my bank details :)
