The power of 3Being of an ever so slightly superstitious nature (i.e. I get panicky when I see only one magpie – will turn round three times and say “Hello Mr Magpie”; don’t like crossing on the stairs and so forth) I also have a bit of a random obsession with the number three.
So when it comes to exams and so on I need to have any writing equipment in multiples of three. In case one runs out you see, and then a spare for the spare. Well, with finals being one of the more important sets of exams I decided I needed (for ultimate luck of course) not only three pens, but 3 x 3 pens. No matter that I’m sure pens could have been provided, I had to have nine pens. And I got really crabby if someone asked if they could borrow one. (It would have destroyed the multiple of three, unless they actually took 3 pens.) It got to the stage where I even contemplated taking 27 pens, but thought that would be going a little far.
I think I was known as the crazy pen lady for the duration.
