It's like ten thousand spoons

I had an exam today so I found myself a quiet spot to hang out and cram Sociology into my head for 5hrs before I had to go write that ish.

And halfway through this chick comes and sits on the edge of my table

and starts talking to this dude as though I'm not clearly sitting there and studying

but I'm not rude and they were just chatting so I kept on recopying my notes on Max Weber for the zillionth time and trying to block 'em out with Beck

it was working, until this prof came up and said

OH HEY CLAIRE CAN I ASK YOU WHAT PROGRAM YOU WERE USING TO ACCESS THE WEBSITE LAST WEEK?

and she says OH I WAS USING FIREFOX WHY WAS THERE A PROBLEM?

and he says WELL I WAS JUST ASKING BECAUSE OF well you get the point they started all yell-talking and I'm sitting there surrounded by my papers and textbooks and cups of coffee thinking

can't these people see that I'm studying here?

so I take out my earphones and stare straight at the prof and he keeps looking at me and just going on talking using a volume usually restricted to rock concerts and finally I say

um... excuse me, I'm trying to study for my exam

and I'm getting the stink-eye from all of 'em as they walk away

because studying in a post-secondary institution is apparently unheard of.
