Physics beatings. Math. Integrals. Calculations. Grades. Exams. Worn out #2 pencils. Wasted paper with a few symbols and lines. Wart on right foot. Snow in October. Cookies for tutorial. AFTER skipping class to make them. Shorts in the wind. Stress. Chess pieces. Clocks. Victories. Waking. Yawning. Rising. Talking. Laughing. Lamenting. Sympathizing. Sleeping. Hearing that others have their crosses to bear. And what does anyone have to say for themselves after their day is done? Why do I do this to myself? I'd think it's because we just like it too much. Or, we despise the alternative: having nothing happen.
