Sixteen o'clock

Jayzus. Sixteen already. 


And that combover of yours is now very nearly a full time occupation. It surely leaves little time for preoccupations of a more academic nature. 
Your main focus is more a materialistic than spiritual one. You are very preoccupied with things, and brands, and showing off things. 
It is not exactly a very complicated model but it monopolises a lot of your energy (that and roaming the hood with your hooded mates). 


I have good hopes that you will grow out of it at some stage and realise that things, especially fashionable things, are quite ephemeral and the contentment that they provide is even more ephemeral. 
David Castello-Lopez, a funny Franco-Portuguese clown, explains in 18 seconds flat the futility of materialism. It's in French, sorry. 


Don't get me wrong, I don't want this birthday message to sound like a litany of complaints. You are still extremely sociable and funny. As funny as David Castello-Lopez even. I still reckon that you should invest your time and energy into a YouTube channel, for this is one of the few avenues for someone who seems quite intent on giving up on school.
 
I can sort of understand that when so much media attention is focused on a planet's climate fucked beyond repair and the very real threat of the domino effect of diplomatic alliances leading to global wars, one's attention may tend to focus on instant gratification rather than laborious long term plans. 


Don't blow your bridges just yet though Boy, in case there is still a bit of life left in this Homo Twitterus Amazonius Googloid.  


You also smell extremely nice in your new designer eau de toilette (remember though, it doesn't replace showers). 
Hope you enjoyed your massive kebab meal this evening and that you'll have some craic (and not crack) with your mates on Saturday (remember, there is a limit of 3 for those sleeping over). 


Happy birthday Pipitte! 





Ok, the translation for the wee song:


I have dosh 
I am financially comfortable
I can't complain, no
Business is good at the moment

"Yeah? So what?"

So... I buy stuff!
And people see that I own stuff.
They go "shit, he's got a lot of stuff!!
And  me too I'd like to own stuff"...

And as a consequence I am happy. [self-assured little smirk]
