The First Word

So I am going to post on here a new word (maybe words) every week because the more words you know the smarter you look and sound. (especially when you use them correctly)

this week's word: ennui (ahn-wee): a feeling of utter weariness and discontent resulting from a lack of interest or boredom.

example: My time spent in philosophy class filled me with much ennui. (cause it did, i mean...ennui might not even be a strong enough word)

Song lyric where ennui can be found: "Why can't you be like an art house foreign movie, frank and sexy, red balloons and ennui" - Why Can't You Be by Third Eye Blind from the album Red Star

so ponder this one, look for some good spots to drop, and smile next time you hear it because guess what? You know what it means!!
