alex sat next to me on the bed, as we watched the debacle of school dinners unfolded on channel ten.
we had just finished talking about the new pope, pope benedict (the something), and had now moved onto a homework. we were talking about how each of us would be rather busy with work and studying for mid years. well, here starts the body of this post:
ME:"well, i guess we are both going to have lots of work now"
alex: "yeah..."
me: "i guess that means we are going to have to spend less time together"
alex: "have to?"
m: "well, so that we have enough time to complete our work"
a: "ok..." (in a questioning tone)
m: "i mean, we will still be spending time together, like on weekends and stuff, but this sort of thing, going to each other's places, is probably going to have to be less frequent."
a:"ok...whatever you say..."

at that one moment, i knew that i had broken a fundamental commandment in the bible for relationships. never prioritise anything above your girlfriend. or at least don't let her now you have. so i guess i broke two commandments.

well, now, about five minutes later, after a heated quarrel with alex over the phone, she has become annoyed at me. i wish that i could just word my thoughts properly.
