Conspiracy Theories

So the other day, being almost more than a week ago now due my laziness and tardiness to post, i was talking with a friend about conspiracy theories. For all those who don't know what i'm referring to, i'm talking about all the crazy phenomenon that can't be explained by science, and as a student of science, i am naturally intrigued. UFOs, 9/11, the Bermuda Triangle, the list goes on for conspiracy theories, and much like the porn theorem that states that if you can think of it, there probably exists a pornography that matches, as does the conspiracy theory theorem. My favourite of course is how there is always an inkling that my life is like The Truman show.

Of course, i'm almost sure that most people, from time to time, consider their lives to be like The Truman Show. I mean how else could my life be filled with so much drama and problems? The other day, i took the wrong bus so my trip got extended by almost an hour. I mean only such problems could happen in a television show of sorts. Oh wait, they already stole my idea and commenced yet another mind-numbing Big Brother series where while people are dying in Africa due to malaria and diarrhea, people in the Big Brother house are given tasks, and have such problems like getting eliminated from winning huge prize money, or have to live with the annoyance of others. Although, to be fair, it's never about absolute poverty, only relative poverty and right now, i'm feeling the fiscal constraints and probably should ease up on the amount i spend on food.

So with a test on Monday, and my bank account slowly but surely running dry, a hugely packed weekend with commitments that otherwise hinder my ability to study, i wonder will i pass? First world problems aside, the weather is starting to warm up as summer looms. Shorts will begin to come out, legs will have to be shaved, and bodies will have to warm up out of winter hibernation, and those lazy quiet nights in will be replaced by buzzing hot nights. Wednesday's public holiday prompted a trip to the beach and quite honestly, there are no other words to describe it other than sheer beauty. With a light salty breeze, the sun high up, then slowly setting as we eat on slightly melted ice-cream, taking photos and Polaroids, man did time fly as we had fun. Fun while pushing unsuspecting people into the waves, playing Frisbee, talking about whatever between distant train stations. Summer is coming, look busy.

In any case, i leave you with a simple thought off a piece i recently read. Rather than letting days off come to you, go to those days and force them off. Plan an off-day every now and then or otherwise you may be overwhelmed before you can reach the sunshine of summer. Oh and if you didn't realise, i totally took the most random tangent away from conspiracy theories and that in itself might just be a conspiracy theory.

Procrastinating through any means so bye.
