if i had it my way

at my exam yesterday, i was confronted with a simple question: acting as a teacher what would you have done in my position? those who know one or two things about Romanian education know that asking your students for opinions on the quality of the courses is a rare event. more so is a teacher asking for pointers from students.

as i was furious for spending my whole day sitting around like an idiot instead of doing me stuff i refused to spend 10 more minutes to complete the questionnaire. then on my way home i started thinking about what would happen if i had it my way. oh, if i had it my way i wouldn't have taken the course. if i had it my way i would get smarter just by looking at the gazillion books i should (have) read. if i had it way way they would actually make sense.

generally, if i had it my way snow would never get dirty, the people i care about would never get, hurt, the subway wouldn't smell. you know little things that, if i had it my way, wouldn't be so small. if i had it my way i wouldn't be the other person one uses to get over pains, because as the scars heal the other person without even wanting it, does nothing but remind one's past.
