Hire me for commissions?...

Tuesday, August 10, 2004

I sometimes think I’m not suited to a life dedicated to the black and white. The wardrobe is…black and white………the mode of any communication is black and white…………the law is black and white………….certainly the likes of Ally McBeal and Elle from Legally Blonde is not found here. I think I shall go insane…….

That’s it…the life to which I am doomed to. I woke up at 7am this morning and could hardly get my eyes to open, and rushed out through the door only to find myself reaching the High Court half an hour early………again. Why can’t I just be late for once??!! Then I couldn’t find the High Court…………..*makes face*. You would think something labelled as the High Court would have a huge sign declaring its importance. Anyway, the guard was nice…….I found one of the sessions court easily enough.

I’ve waited for an hour for the judge to show up……………………………waiting, I’ve found, is a chore...and it’s also beginning to get hard to breathe. I have on a coat and suit (black and white ensemble of course). The stillness is suffocating…and heavy……*breathe*………
Occasionally I could hear what is being said at the floor, and at other times, it’s like listening to a mouse – unintelligible squeaks.
The judge was doing some bizarre hand movements just now…….. no one else seems to find it strange……and I don’t really have the guts to tap the lawyer next to me for clarification…….anyway, he’s busy reading, and I’m beginning to think I’m an idiot.
Maybe at law school they teach you how to think alike, act alike…..even smell alike!! Everyone seems the same and I swear that the same scent has been hanging around several lawyers……………furthermore, at one instant, those waiting on the floor all rose and started to put on their robes………..was there some hidden signal??!!
*sigh*…………….
