My Thesis Defense

I just want to have the chance to act the same as they did, 
and look at their faces. 
But I don’t think I have an ego to match… 
But, at least, I would offer them the chance to sit in my Chair. 
Honestly, I don’t think they would manage well. 

I wish you could’ve seen their hungry faces 
staring at me, 
praying for my failure, 
waiting for their EGOs to be fed. 

I wish you could’ve had the chance to see their faces… 
And their EGOs bouncing off the walls… how did they get through the doorway?
And I permitted them. 
No other choice. 

You'd better learn how to control your EGO!! 

I was enjoying it…Together with my Champion… 
You should’ve seen my Champion’s face… 
Not so much if-looks-could-kill… but the two of us, sharing a private joke…

They have spent years waiting for these moments, this moment… 
I mean, One Hour. 
Maybe remembering their own and then going home to kick the dog…

I was nervous at first. 
But didn’t show it…
Didn’t give them the satisfaction.

They spent One Hour of their life with me on Trial… 
And they enjoyed it. 
Obviously, I was a considerable burden to deal with… 

I was the black sheep. 
And I enjoyed it… 
I knew what I was talking about.

Should I be happy or not? 
Ha! I loved it! 
I thought for just a moment… should I thank them? 
Well…
