Listen, there’s a hell of a good universe next door. Let’s go. + Poe, 17, Senior

Why is it that guys hit on me at work, but I can’t get one girl? 

“Maybe you haven't...met the right girl ye-yet.”

TFI Thursday ...

… because that means it’s almost Friday, right? The way the days of the week work better not have changed overnight …

[poesykirk]

“I have some g-grand news for you.”

[poesykirk]

Ugh, so when is Drake gonna realize that pussy just isn’t cutting it and that we were meant to be?

“I-It's just a thought, but perhaps meeting in person could...play out in your favor.”

[poesykirk]

You sound reluctant to agree that I’m right. I’m not about this life.

“It's not that I d-don't...agree with you. I...I can see your point. Wait, does that mean...people usually blind-- blindly trust your words? That's-- Well...”

[poesykirk]

When you’re bored time is literally going slower from your perspective, because you’re not getting any decent stimuli. 

“That...pretty much answers a-all of...all of my questions. Thank you.”

[poesykirk]

Huh, it’s the opposite for me. Time flies when you’re having fun, I guess.

“I-I suppose that's it. Uhm...yeah. So you're...alright at...anything that has to do with Mathematics?”

[holandrohden]

[poesykirk]

My bet is on the fact that the weekend is actually enjoyable, while math is nothing short of cruel and unusual punishment. Can’t say that I know anything about trigonometry, but it’s pretty simple. Math plus me equal sucks.

“That's-- Actually, that makes an awful lot of sense. Well, that is a formula I...should be able to remember.”

[poesykirk]

Good! I’ll hold you to it, mysterious adorable ginger whose name I do not know. Honestly, in my experience, it’s the best Broadway production I’ve ever seen. It’s amazing because of how much effort goes into it — the sets are just… out of this world. Beautiful. Let’s not even touch on the talent of the casting. You’ve read the book? One step ahead of me. Do you recommend it?

Oh… yeah, gotcha. College is a thing most people do after school. My best friends are all in it, I hear it’s fun. Takes you places… places far away. Um. Anyways. That’s really dumb in my opinion — that an age law defines your adulthood. I think it comes down to behavior and experiences, not a birthday.

“Oh, I-I'm-- I have to apologize. It's Poesy. Well, mysterious is...new. Uhm, and who do I have the honor of meeting? You seem...really enthusiastic about, well, musicals. It's...it is...rather contagious. For now I can only imagine. -- Although I have to agree with you about the cast. When did you see it on Broadway? Uh, yes, I definitely recommend The Life and Time of the Wicked Witch of the West. The sequels were-- They didn't...live up to the first. -- Couldn't.”

“So I reckon you...well, you aren't going to college? It's, uhm-- My mother likes to...remind me of my...youth frequently. It's one of those...unnecessary and...quite frankly incredibly annoying things mothers seem to like to do. I-- yeah... I like your, uhm, definition much better.”

[poesykirk]

'Cause math is balls, that's what.

“Yeah, I...I suppose it is.”

[poesykirk]

Aw, shucks. You’re so cute. It’s incredible on stage! Promise me now that before you die, you’ll see Wicked on Broadway. I’m resisting the pun urge here… but know it’s incredible. Oh, yeah, the Wizard of Oz. Totally crap, in my opinion. The story was all wrong and I walked out of that cinema a lil’ stressed.

College, huh? Bet you got big dreams. What do you study? I hope the school of your dreams has nice scenery because you’ll be stuck there for awhile. Eighteen? Okay, so you’re not that much of a babe compared to me. Not gonna apologize, though.

“I can do that. Give the promise. I've been wanting to see Wicked on Broadway for...too long. I, uhm, I read the books when I was younger and...yeah, it is. The story was, well, it was terrible, which was a shame. -- Is, I guess. So, yeah, I can see why it stressed you.”

“Um, to...be honest, I...don't really have any great plans for the future. I thought college was my, you know, safest bet, so I...applied to, well, some universities near the city. Well, I mean, legally you're considered a teenager until your twenty-first birthday, so...”

[poesykirk]

No need to lie, sweetie, I know I’m a massive dork. I appreciate your words anyway. Are you a fan of the whole ‘Oz’ thing or are you just educated about great theater?

Ugh, disgusting. I’d say give it a miss because I always did, but I should be encouraging the youth to be better.

“That...honestly wasn't a lie. I'm not sure if I would consider myself a fan, but, I mean, yeah, I've always, you know, liked the story. Sadly I haven't seen it on stage. Not yet. I saw the movie at the theater, though -- the one with Mila Kunis? Alas it... didn't really live up to my expectations.”

“Yeah, that's...probably a no-go if I want to go to college after the summer. The youth? Hey, I'm turning eighteen next week!”

[poesykirk]

It’s the wicked witch of the west. Her magic is beyond cruel and I’m sorry you’re under the spell. And I’m going to stop with the puns now because I sound stupid. Cheer up, though. School’s not all that bad and the weekend’ll be back before you know it.

“No, it's...it's cool. Oz puns are always appreciated. You, uh, didn't sound stupid. At all.”

“Yeah, I suppose it really isn't. I'm just...you know, dreading the idea of Mathematics at eight in the morning.”

[poesykirk]

“What is this sorcery with the weekend passing in the blink of an eye, when an hour of Trigonometry feels like an eternity?”
