OH SNAP

Apr 21, 2007 04:02

I am applying for an internship and need to write the cover letter. It's due in 58 minutes. I'm not concerned.
It's four in the morning. Meh.
I'm listening to the Titanic song, God knows why. It really has horrid lyrics. Take my word. e.g. "Love is when I loved you." THANKS MS DION!

If I were the sort of person who went out drinking on Friday nights such as this one, I might be only moderately tipsy by this point. Thank goodness I'm not such a person! That would make writing a cover letter slightly more difficult!!

However, none of this matters to me.

What matters to me is that I can now snap my fingers.

This is a skill which has eluded me for my entire life.

In fact, it is the very first thing I can remember which set me apart in a negative way from others. In Kindergarten or whenever, all the other kids could snap. And I couldn't. I was Different. It's the first time where I remember being different.

And now I can do it.

It's silly. It hurts my fingers. It's a pointless gesture.

And yet, somehow, it makes me feel extremely fulfilled.
