Before a war military science seems a real science, like astronomy; but after a war it seems more like astrology.

Quote of the day

Drama is life with the dull bits cut out.
Alfred Hitchcock

Birthday Girl

My birthday is coming up awfully fast. I'll turn 20 on Novembre 5th, and that shall be the most depressing birthday ever.
Reasons why it will be depressing :
- that will be my first birthday with my parents divorced. Birthdays used to be a family reunion. They're totally not anymore.
- I'm usually looking forward to my birthdays. This year, I don't even care.
- My parenst are getting divorced, and are still insisting that we celebrate it as a family. We're not a family anymore. Tensions will very much arise.
- I am overloaded with work, and therefore will not even be able to onjoy the fact that it's my birthday.
- Did I mention that I'm depressed because my parents are getting divorced?

As for the good things, my father did mention that I'd be getting more presents this year, since there won't be a general present from my parennts. I guess that's good news. Not.

I am also the crappiest friend on the planet, since I don't answer to half my friends' text messages.

I have way too much work for a girl who isn't even working.

And, what annoys me most, I don't have time to write the novel which is supposed to make me very rich and world famous.

As you can guess, I'm not in a very good mood in general. Neither is my roomate, which means I get about no relief.

Due to popular demand (not), here is the quote of the day :

Hapiness is having a large, loving, caring, close-knit family in another city.
George Burns
