The Brain Trust


The phone is ringing, the music is loud and the weather is great. This is a normal day of my life. A girl on myspace is singing about the fact that the man went to the moon and came back, the she is telling a story about how boys like actresses of pop porn movies. She is singing in italian and the sound is great. Vuze just finished downloading the latest movie of Riccardo Scamarcio and he is way to handsome to watch without thinking about how all boys in this city are nothing in front of him and i keep dreaming of him.The phone is ringing and it's my friend, the genius, asking me if i read that chapter about pax europea...This is the moment in the movies when you hear the scratching sound that brings you back to reality and i was brought back to reality, my books and my exams.

I dont want to finish university, because what happens after??And the main question is, can i finish university???I hate having exams.My brain is full of information i cant remember although they exist in my brain, some times i can combine them and create my own theory and others not. Exams are a creativity period really, if you have the basis you can really solve any problem.....apart from the ones that professors ask you to. Then you realise that all those things you learn are useless really, but then they mention the brain trust. What the hell is that about???I am very sure after i finish uni i am never going to sketch another diagram about inflation and unemployment again. Why did i ever decide to be an economist??? It reminds me of when i was a child and when people asked me what i wanted to be when i grew up i had no idea what to answer. Mainly because, when i was a little, all i wanted to be was a bigger me.

What did you want to be when you were a little?

Boots go in pairs...


Lately i've been talking with my friend who is fulfilling his duty to mother land and is doing his military service (currently mandatory in greece for everyone 18+) and in specific he's in the navy.He told me that they are always there in groups of 3...he also told me that it's like the kids camp for adults, and of course i believed him. He had an amazing tan, and his teeth were way too bright.... I'm thinking it's more like a spa than the army, the only proof that it's indeed the army is that his hands were stronger resulting from the fact that he's in a boat. Strangest thing is, why are they in groups of 3??Then i saw Sex and the city the movie... In the end it results that all girls in NY go in groups of 4?Why???Because Carrie Bradshow wishes so??I dont understand also, how Carrie can afford a new pair of shoes every day. It's like she wakes up, she goes to starbucks for a latte, go buy the NY Times and Vogue and then off to buy new shoes.Daily routine. I found the film too focused on fashion and it was way too obvious that it was advertising "hot" couture. Cant say i didnt like it, though i thought the series were better.

Back to my main point, why do we always go in groups?Is it our need of not being a lone, or is it our fear?And as carrie says, i couldnt help it wonder.... does the size of groups count?I mean should it be an odd or even number?What is the correct number to say it's a group and not a crowd?Will i ever be so successful i'll be able to buy expencive shoes after i buy my newspaper?Does manolo blanhik produce flat shoes since i cant wear hills?Will i ever be able to wear hills?Is it mandatory to wear them if you are successful? Also, given that hills make your legs look better, is it a prerequisite to wear them to find a boyfriend?If yes, will i always be single?'cause i think it's pretty lame if thats the case!

So many questions, so little time!!!Go ahead and answer them!!
