Re: Children

I think my ears are still bleeding...

When I was younger, I had this crazy idea that I might want to be a pediatrician.  Then I realized how boring it is to sit in a little office all day and have kids cough all over you.  Oh, and I eventually realized how EVIL kids can be.

I must admit, I quite like children...on a one-to-one, professional basis, like when I teach or babysit.

But Saturday has confirmed my current state of mind regarding children in general: AHHHHHHHH

My brother ended up having his birthday party yesterday and I have to say...after a movie and gallons of sugar-loaded pop and butter-laden popcorn, being stuck in a tiny 5 m by 5m room with 7 nine-year-old boys for two hours was definitely not one of my better experiences...

And I have a physics exam tomorrow, so having four-five hours of my time wasted was NOT GOOD!

Oh man...oh, but today it snowed.  AND YES IT'S APRIL!!  C'est le Canada?

On a positive note...no more physics after tomorrow?

Each one salutes me as he goes,
And I my childish plumes
Lift, in bereaved acknowledgement
Of their unthinking drums.
