Gawd James is tired...
Such an odd heading I hear the masses whisper already now before I even published this posting. Well its not only odd its a tired posting too...
It all started Monday night when James could not sleep. Well after a few hours of squirming he fell asleep only to be awaken by the evil sound of housemates talking from outside his room in the kitchen. He looked at the alarmclock and saw... well fair enuff... 8 AM. He didn't think about it that much, since it's a reasonable time to start talk little more lively. Anyway... he could not fall back to sleep so he stayed up.
James did an exam that day, which some people thought the day after was a very short timed exam, but James only used 50 mins of the 2 hours given. After the exam he went to GBG to meet a friend that he had been neglacting, and they talked until James' first film started. It was a real nice film about some elderly people doing a show together with the dance theatre legend Pina Baush. Then it was a break for like an hour and then Der Untergang started. That film was so good. James was sitting for 2 and half hour just astound by the reality of the things being played out on the screen. He thought it was interesting the way that Hitler was portrayed as a somewhat mad but still very human and sometimes even kind person.
Anyway... when James got off from the film he knew he would have a hard time to catch the train. Well not really hard since it was rather close to the station but still... he wasnt totally sure he would make it. However he was so happy when he arrived to the station at 23.00 half an hour before the train should leave. But his heart sank down when he looked at the screen and it were no train going home to B. He quickly jogged to the internet cafe that is in the station and bought an hour there. He was baffled with the realisation that there were no trains going home, but relieved when he found a bus. However the bus did not leave until 0.15 and would not be in B until 1.20. James had no choice but to wait however since he wanted to get home to B.
Well the busride was going very fast since James was too tired and unknowingly slept through the whole ride. Then he had to walk another 5-10 to get home. At 2 AM he was finally in bed to sleep. The next morning he was as always waked up by his loud housemates talking in Dutch. He looked at the clock. 7 AM!!! Of course he could not sleep again after that, even if he did his best.
Then he had to help out at the Union Fair. Sitting there tired ass and trying to look happy and gay and inviting to newcomers. And most of the time sitting all ALONE. :(
Anyhow after that he had to live through a whole class of cataloging... which in a awaken state mite be fun... but now was soooo not fun. [Ed. note: Yes. I know. It is starting to get a bit boring and whining at this point... so that's why we have excluded all the funny facts of what happened after the class etc.]
So yes. There is a tired little James out there! Be nice to him. Feed him. And put him to bed!
