The Reckoning

I apologize, I'm not in my usual good humour. You'd understand if you knew the situation I was in. You see, I spent the last week before the release of the GCE results stuck at home nursing an injury sustained in the dubious of ways which I'm not even going to begin to describe.
I guess everyone feels a little lost after collecting their results; I know I do, empty I should say. You see, for the past few years, I've watched Manchester United chase the league title. It was like a conquest, something burning inside. And now, those bastards are about to do it. I guess, like my light went out. We were so comfortable chasing the championship, I'm not so sure how comfortable we are as champions. 'What do we do now?' You might ask. Questions like that would kill you. Questions like 'what do we do now? or 'what's the point?'
Take me for example, I'm about to make a very important decision which would ultimately change my future and apply to be enrolled in a school which would force me to wake up 6am every morning. 'What's the point?'
You don't ask 'what's the point?'. That's the point.
People who know me would ask, '13 points huh? How'd you do it?'
Well, they're forgetting the most important factor - Manchester United. You see, there were two things in my life which I never thought I'd experience. The first was Manchester United winning a treble, which they did in 1999. And then, I thought to myself 'Well, I should experience the other.' Manchester United has at one time or another made each and everyone of us insane. They make us lose ourselves. They make me believe that anything, anything is possible, including, but not limited to the notion that God put every single Cambridge examiner and marker in an exceptionally good mood when they were marking my scripts. So, as a result, the other thing I thought I would never get to experience came true - to do reasonably well for my GCEs.
So here's a toast, to life, to love, but most of all...to Manchester United.
Well what can I say, it's just another day in the life of mine.
