When waiting alone for lecture, tutorial or workshop, or happening past a scene I don't particularly want to be seen as watching, out will come The Phone. As a member of gen Y this is but a natural and easy response to say "hey, yes I am alone. But no! I defy you to say I'm really alone! How can I be alone when I am obviously in commuinication with a number of friends?" Which translates to a reality for me meaning that as a result of not wanting to waste credit or wear thin the patience of friends, out comes the draft text message.
Cue the aforementioned "the grout" which happens to be an old friend of the dear draft text.
Or, after following somone for five minutes - who fortuously happened to be going to the exact same place as me - this gem of ennui
"Sheep have a surprisingly enviable time of it, really."
What can I say, I was feeling rather sheep-like. And, to tell you the truth, in the sleep ridden stupor that I was occuping, mindless following was actually pretty damn good.
I have a nice feeling that this wont be the end of the draft text message, at all.
