Roots of Hatred

Coming back to school has awoken a wide range of emotions, including annoyance, disgust, frustration, hatred, hostility, rage, righteous indignation, sadness and worry.

As a friend said earlier, whence you come back to school, your internal hate towards others shows up and it tries to devour every single thing in front of it.

Don’t get me wrong – I’m not trying to sound pitiful. I actually get along with most of my classmates, something that doesn’t happen very often. But there are four or five people that I incredibly dislike. Not just me, most of the class can’t stand them either.

These past few days during my winter holidays, I was able to rest and I could just breathe some fresh air. But now… coming into a classroom and having to look at their faces. I’d rather kill myself with a tea spoon.

I have to deal with it. It’s not like they are bulling me – It’d be more likely for me to bully them, but… they are just disgusting.

Oh, it’s August.

Oh… winter holidays are almost over. Damn, I have a Culture and Communications test on Monday and I haven’t studied… almost 60 pages of absolute non-sense.

I just want December to come. Summer, sun, summer holidays – just nothing to do (except for annual exams, Christmas preparations, my birthday party, going to the beach and all that crap).

Anyway, I haven’t done anything regarding the site – no reviews, no new pages, absolute nothingness.
I enjoyed my holidays doing what I’m the best at – sleeping, watching TV, using WLM, playing MMORPGs and sleeping a little more. It’s amazing how I have changed in a year. I swear I used to hate those games…

Now it’s 6:30 AM, and I’ve been up all night. And I discovered Scholastic’s going to publish “The Tales of Beedle the Bard”. That’s great, more HP for me… too bad I live in Argentina and no one’s probably going to import it. But wait – they could easily bring the US$12 edition and sell it for US$60. And if someone ever brings the collector’s edition of US$100, they’ll sell it for US$300.

Ok… enough senseless ranting for me today. I have to sleep, study and finish 15 papers due Monday. Wish me luck ~

I’m craving for some Starbucks

It’s half past three in the morning and all I can think about is how badly I need to go to Starbucks.
I don’t care that I have two exams in less than twelve hours and that I know little about Malthus’ theory of overpopulation and the Sovereign General Assembly of 1813, I just think about tasting something from Starbucks for the very first time.

First Starbucks Cafe in ArgentinaYou see, the first Starbucks cafe in Argentina opened a month ago or so and I haven’t been able to go.

I reckon that for you, people with hundreds of Starbucks shops, going there and having a cup of coffee is nothing out of the ordinary, but for me, a teenager who has been growing up watching nothing but american TV shows, in which Starbucks is often featured, it is going to be amazing.

Anyway, I really have to go. I have little time and 40 pages of my Geography book to study… too bad I won’t be able to stop thinking about Starbucks until I go there, on Saturday.
