The Six Word Memoir Game

Today in one of my tutorials, we had to write a "six word memoir" which apparently is a thing that has some link to someone who is somehow connected to the show 'Orange is the new black' (okay, I mightn't have been listening to what the tutor was saying the entire time). But basically, the "six word memoir game" is pretty much you composing a sentence of six words that sums you up: how you feel in the present, in a certain situation, or just how you feel about life in general. And being the quite self-absorbed person that I am, I really enjoyed this task and decided to dedicate a whole post to this game, going further than the:

"I overslept and now I'm hungry" 

that I wrote in class today. This particular line was about my state this morning, but I think it just summarises most of my mornings (cough- all of my mornings). But here are a few more that I have thought of since then, which also sum up my life:

"Wait! What? That was due today?!?"

"I'm so confused! What is life?!?"

"I'm crazy and I don't care"

"Food is the reason I breathe"

"The world revolves around only me"

"I'm such a cow: Moo... see"

"Waking up early should be illegal"

"All I want is hot tea" 

"I'm completely obsessed with this song"

I could go on, but I don't want to bore you all with my six word memoirs. Instead, try to make up your own (if anyone actually reads this), because it is a great way to pass the time. In fact, next time I'm on a long car ride, I'm going to introduce this to the mix of car games that I want to play (but somehow people seem less enthusiastic).
