I guess everyone adopts “frustration” as their middle name when they enter our college. But I never realized the humorous appeal of the entire situation until recently I discovered that the levels of frustration had actually reached comic levels.
Now, they all have their own different and very valid reasons for feeling messed up in life; but it’s actually amusing to see what frustration can make people do. The other day this friend was sitting in my room beating a mixture of coffee powder and sugar like it was all the mug’s fault it wasn’t breaking under the impact of her beating (and I must say I was surprised the mug didn’t actually break). This intimidating action was accompanied by a series of growls and yelps, which could have sent all the street dogs into hiding out of shame if not fear. A little snooping revealed that the fact that all her friends were very busy with their respective projects and extra-curriculars, while she was up to nothing constructive in life irked her.
Change of scene, I enter another friend’s room and start playing on her cell phone like I always do. And as always, I was busy beating my high scores, but for some reason she got all worked at my playing on the phone all the time. Also for some inexplicable reason, I burst out laughing at her and there began all the whimpering about having so much to do and being stuck at such a rotten place (which I agree with wholeheartedly!).
When I move about in the corridors, I come across this bunch of perpetually jobless people who never have more than 2 classes a day; and are bored to frustration, having nothing to do in life.
And finally, since I haven’t touched upon my own levels of frustration here, I’ll be fair enough to add that some people get frustrated when I find their frustration comic and laugh, needless to say, they don’t get too many opportunities to do the same ;-D
