Really?

Eugh. You know those day to day situations that are difficult to respond to and the only thing you  can mumble is a weak and tired "Really?". Almost as if you're giving the recipient of that response a second chance to change their mind and avoid being hurt.

Things like:

1. A lecturer doesn't show up for a lecture you struggled to wake up for.
Really?

2. Your favorite friend zoned candidate wants to hang out in not so friend zoned set ups. Drinks and a movie? Really?

3. The one section you decided not to study is the first question in the exam. Worth a whopping twenty marks. Really?

4. Your mum wakes you up like something is dead and rotting in the kitchen, only to find that it's because you left your cup and saucer in the sink last night. Really?

5. Your friend cancels on plans you made donkey years ago because of some new plans with some new people. Really?

6. Your friend doesn't cancel your plans together and you were hoping to have a quiet night in. Alone.  Really?

7. Your boyfriend makes a funny joke while you're trying to be mad. Really?

8. That one person you can't stand laughs out loud while you're trying to breathe. Really?

9. You make yourself an awesome meal and drink and settle down to watch some TV only to realise you left the remote control in the kitchen. Really?

10. You type in a link into your Web browser and are told you've run out of data. Really?

I mean.

Life is so tricky.

Have some tea.
