• Totally Nervous

    I cannot write that much today because I still have to learn for the big test tomorrow but I just wanted to post some short notes. I am totally super nervous right now. It is because we have a big test tomorrow like I wrote the sentence before. It is the last one for this week. Yes, next week ther…
  • Everything is done by interests

    It's true, everything is done because of interest, not because of sheer good will. I'm cool with that, I don't agree with it, but I'm cool.I realized that loyalty is just something that exists in real family relationships (even though, sometimes, there isn't loyalty in family members either, and tha…
  • Obama Schools on Student Loans

    It is dubious if "Veritas" is incorporated in this Harvard Law graduate's curriculum. h/t: Ron Rogers, Pittsburg Post-Gazette
  • Oh, Pell No!

    Just set aside your political leanings for a moment and laugh with me as the Preezy of the United Steezy slow jams the news. I think it's funny.
  • It's just a number.

    One of the things I find interesting is intelligence. Today, I was sitting in a small room with a group of friends, when - I can't quite remember the context - one of the guys announced proudly, "I'm the smartest person in this room!" I kindly asked, "And what makes you say that?" To which he res…
  • Student Evaluations, Take 2.

    Or they are as useful as... (this could be a fun assignment): A color blind interior decorator A microwave oven on a surf board Having the only telephone in the world A tennis racket with no strings. A TV set that only picks up signals from the Antarctic A submarine in the Saraha desert Submarine…
  • I have returned.

    (Nerd_points++ to anyone who catches that reference, or this one.) I'm back! After just over 2 years of being gone from Xanga, the prodigal blogger has returned. (Amazingly I remembered my login on the first try.) Why? Two big reasons that probably should have motivated me sooner. 1. The Universit…
  • A New View: What is Death?

    Although I am now averaging a grand total of one blog per month, that does not mean that things are not "happening" in my life. Life continues on; I have simply stepped back from blogging (among other things I enjoy) in order to fulfill my educational responsibilities as a fulltime student. I've wri…
  • Teacher Arrested for Sexual Assault

    I think we all remember the article that fueled posts on Xanga about age being "just a number" when a Californian 18-year-old student left school, family and friends to be with her 41-year-old teacher (who divorced his wife because of the alleged relationship). Now it has been reported that James…
  • Student Discounts at Qdoba

    As I've grown older the lack of student discounts for movie theaters, restaurants, and other places have gradually disappeared. I hate how the student discount at most major movie theaters has almost vanished, except during matinees, which is normally the same price as a regular matinee ticket. Yo…
