The mind knows how, but the soul is unwilling. I know how to tiptoe around people, but I greatly prefer being combative.

Which explains why my adviser is currently holding the contents of my bookshelf locked in her office until I comply with her demands. Score by her, but I tend to win these battles by not giving a shit.

...and now you all know how immature I am :D.
