Apathy in the UK!

Sorry for the uninspired title there, but you see, I just couldn't bring myself to care enough to come up with something cool or witty.

Which is a very clever way to segue into my topic for this here blog. I'm just finding it difficult to care about anything really important. And I know this is probably the default state for all you uber cool terminally disaffected young people out there, but it's an uneasy thing for me. I used to always be able to muster up some enthusiasm about my coursework etc, even if I didn't say so, but... I have an assignment due on friday, I've almost finished it, but I just can't be bothered to do anything, I'm just sat here, typing away on a blog that was only set up for another assignment which I don't have to do anymore, as well as listening to songs I am ashamed of enjoying on Youtube and discussing comics.

It's even worse with course reading! I just skim it, so quickly that it's hardly skimming, more like hovercrafting it or something. (That's a thing, do Hovercrafts actually hover? To Wikipedia!) Bah.

And the weird thing is, in this assignment, I'm actually writing a bit about my own apathy! It's like a vicious circle of not caring, which can hardly be vicious can it?

Eep, this looks like a massive emo whinge doesn't it? I'm sure I'm just tired as it's the end of term, and I'll come back refreshed after Easter, raring to go like Martin Prince. So all is not lost, let's be happy.

In fact, I'll list some things that are making me happy at the moment.

Mad Men
LOST Season 4
Spider-Man Brand New Day
Sainsbury's Wine Gums
Booster Gold and the return of Blue Beetle
Ratatouille
Bleach

Hooray for nerdy interests, but you should all be watching Mad Men, it's on BBC4, which makes it cultured, not sad.

Oh, and the song I'm ashamed of listening to is the new song by Panic At The Disco (No ! anymore), goddamn it for being so catchy. I want to punch the lead singer's catchy face for making me not hate him as much.

See, even my hate for Panic has gone slightly. Curse you God for making me this way. :p
