I found this on a website and really liked it, so I'm posting it here. It's called "Mad World" by Gary Jule.

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere


And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tommorow, no tommorow


And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
Cause I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World


Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen


Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

My internet died again. Hence why I have not updated in awhile. Another crazy Monday. My prof canceled half the classes (well almost...5 outta 12) that she's teaching this summer. It's team teaching, 24 days, 12 per prof, so that's how I did that math. I went in last Thurs. She said "no class today and no class tommarow. Cya." Today I go in. "no class today. no class tommarow cya. My part of the class is done." And she had allready cancelled the first Fri. we had class, and we're only ever in there an hour out of the two, if not less. So yeah, that course is pointless. The other prof gives really hard tests with crap we don't need to know, and which is too complicated for the genre of the course. Prof One said that, not me. I myself did fine on the test. Seems most others didn't. So yay me I guess. My spanish prof is back in "she's a bitch" land. She gave me a 7/20 on a workbook thing that I spent ALOT of time on. She said I didn't. Riiiiiight like she'd know. Therefore I failed that, and even though I got the highest grade yet on the last test, I'm dragged down to a B when I need an A. Isn't that just so fun?

I am currently under alot of stress, and not handling it too well. I have stress from all directions. To list everything I'm dealing with and explain it would take hours. Maybe more. But I just put on my happy face as best I can, and try to keep my mouth shut as much as possible. Cause every now and then when I slip up on the keeping my mouth shut bit, I see how much people just don't want to listen, or don't want to hear what I have to say rather. So I listen to them. And it's all good. I help everyone else, I like doing that. And at the same time, I try to keep on my happy face and hold myself together. Whether or not this will be an utter failure has yet to be seen. But it's not looking pretty so far. Just remember....."happy face happy face happy face! Nothing's wrong. I'm good. How about you? Don't slip up, don't let them know you're going nuts. That would be bad. Help everyone else and keep your mouth shut. Smile as much as possible. When you're off say you're tired or something else equally simple. Only talk about happy things." Isn't everything just grand? ::Happy face smile!::
