Paraphrasing Champion (Tuesday, May 12, 2009)
You gossip and you’re hypocritical.
If you disagree with this sentence, it’s confirmed then. You ARE a hypocrite.
Everyone is.

We’re hypocritical about hypocrites, seriously. If you go and around claiming I HATE HYPOCRITES, you’re like the biggest hypocrite the earth has seen. Because everyone has hypocrisy in them, including me, we’ll never be able to write a single reflection in our life if we didn’t just have that reliable piece of thick skin. But sometimes hypocrisy doesn’t hurt or affect anything/anyone; extreme hypocrites have this huge banner stuck on their forehead, saying “PUNCH ME!” I don’t deny my hypocrisy, so you’re stuck with the hypocritical me for the rest of the post.

Anyway. People who hide their gossiping sessions are really interesting. No, this has nothing scandalous, slanderous or anything gossip-worthy in it, I’m just lamenting about human nature. This isn’t just restricted to people around me, I think it applies to everyone, hah. Because gossiping is so taboo and almost always includes some sort of badmouthing or complaining, people try to hide it, with their cupped hand, worksheets, jackets or whatever they can get their hands on. I don’t deny this either. So everywhere I go, there’re always a few people spilling on some juicy rumours they heard this morning to their friends, behind worksheets and jackets. And the funniest thing is that they think people don’t know, which is really weird. Because I can only think of two reasons why you would hide behind a jacket with another person, number 1, you’re gossiping, number two, you’re kissing. I hope there have been no occurrences of the latter option.

Linking it back to the main topic of hypocrisy, I’m hypocritical by typing this paragraph about The Etiquette of Gossiping, but that’s another topic on its own. Practice what you preach, although hardly anyone does it.

Secondly, don’t take nice quotes from people please. Regardless whether you overheard some witty, totally spontaneous quote that just sprang out of someone’s mouth, or whether you innocently copied and pasted it- I don’t like it. This may or may not refer to me; perhaps I’m modelling myself on Atticus Finch.

My blog's so immature. I know it sounds mature because I'm addressing all the taboo topics that no one does. At least, I haven't really seen anyone do it (because I'm the most no life one), other than the bitch fight ones. I guess it's not immature in the way that I bold and caps my words and say: "XXX IS A BIG FAT HEN!" or "XXX IS SUCH A LOSER!" but it comes close. Yes it does. I never openly defame anyone because I wouldn't dare to but it comes close haha. It's immature because I don't know how to keep my big fat mouth shut and carry on with all the innocent posts about the day's happenings. I think a truly mature person would know what's appropriate to put on public blogs and what's not. A truly mature person might even refrain from gossip! But that's how we get gossip magazines, they're ran by adults that never mature because they can't stop poking their noses into other people's businesses.

THE REAL POST:
Nothing happened today, UNSW Science, I don’t think anything good will come out of it. I got through Math relatively unconfused :D Music was almost not as good as past sessions but we got back on track afterwards. (Anyway how can I, conveniently musically illiterate, complain? I apologise to Gennie for my atrocious musical ability.) Chinese was normal.

Stayed back today, talked a lot, laughed a lot, and worked so much it will scare your butt off.
Getting Cumulus/Cirrus Cloud back tomorrow. I hope.
Another post for you to talk about in your cliques, about how dumb and no lifer I am.

Oh look everyone is blogging about being stressed or how life sucks all the way down to the earth's core or being emo/suicidal or friendship bonds when I'm the only one typing weird, qianbian articles everyday......YAY!
