I've begun to worry about the weight of expectation people around have decided to place on me... grandpa with his 'yes, we're going to have a politician (-_-) in the family' line - in spite of the fact that I constantly remind him I'm not doing pol sci anymore (then again, even if I were doing it, that doesn't mean I'll be a politician, right?)... my aunt with her 'come come, advise your cousin on what to do with his life' and 'come come, help me find a laptop to buy'... people I work with lumping work at me... some silly girls who decided that it wasn't necessary to find someone they loved and could understand them, instead figuring that if they could stand me, understanding would come naturally...

It may seem a real small thing actually, after all, expectations are not uncommon. Maybe it's just one of my niggling worries at the back of my mind about life in general.

Right now though, all I want is a nice cup of tea, sandwiches, and scones. And a seat by the sea.
