insouciance \in-SOO-see-uhns; Fr. an-soo-SYAHNS\, noun:
the quality of being insouciant; lack of care or concern; indifference.
The feeling of insouciance came over me tonight as I was participating in a yearly phenomenon that I did not know existed until last year: March Madness.
I mean, of course I've never cared before, I've never lived in an environment where people cared about basketball so much. This year is the first time I've ever made a bracket, or stayed up until 12:47 at night for a game to end. But it was really awesome! Insouciance is rather the antonym for my excitement though, the true feeling of indifference came from the team that Syracuse played tonight, which was Montana.
What a joke.
I wouldn't have said anything like that last year, as I had no idea which teams were good and which teams were bad, but this year I know, and I now know that Syracuse is ten times better than Montana because we beat them by almost fifty points. Talk about insouciance.
