Journal Journal: Pioneering College: Him who is, and him who isn't.

So, I'm just (finally) starting my long, fortuitous career as a respectable adult. The kind who can hold down a part-time job, be a full-time student, and a long-term friend with short-term memory loss. Har dee har har.
Well, whatever right? Except that I'm finding it increasingly difficult to stay in the "Respectable Adult" position. Not because of to much "stress" (gods forbid I ever use my Mother's pathetic excuse), but because of the lack of responsibility from my peers. Many of whom are ages older, and theoretically ages wiser.
Perhaps I am but stupid. Perhaps I am far more judgmental then need be. However, when it gets to the point where I'm sitting in a class that is costing $250 a credit I expect to be able to sit and watch a presentation in silence with the occasional scribble noise from one of the students taking notes. I do not expect that 20yr-30yr adults would behave like high-school students. For example; people like to talk (not whisper, talk) during the presentation. Which would be fine if it was relevent. Rather then just dribbling out some immature remark about the male genitalia. Also, haven't we moved beyond tossing paper airplanes in class? Or, aren't we to old to be shouting at/takling over our peers if they raise an oppinion that we don't like? Am I mistaken to assume that adults would have grown up in the past umpety-fuck years that they've been out of high-school, or am I just being presumptuous? Seriously, if you don't want to be at a college, taking college classes, and trying to at least behave like you belong in college then don't come.
What really ticks me off is that most of these people are the ones who don't have to pay for college. The ones who aren't working their asses off for a measly 6.50 an hour. No, these are the people who have never seen hardship in their entire lives, so why should they care about how much is being spent on them, or how much other people have to work to obtain the privelege that is given to these people as if it's their right? The problem is that they don't have to care. Why? Because they're under the impression that their lives will never change. they will always be taken care of, and therefore have no need to worry about what happens if they aren't.
To all parents everywhere, I know it's hard to be a parent. I know it's hard to work, and raise children, and raise yourselves. However, for the sake of your kids, talk to them about what could happen if they don't make it in life. I'm not saying you should tell them they're worthless, and will end up living in hols, but let them know that rubbing a lamp doesn't always make a genie appear.
Social Networks

Journal Journal: The Dickwad theory

Recently, it seems, with the progressive use of the internet, society (and social contact) have evaporated to awkward stares on the transit system. Most people today often even avoid eye contact.
I've never really been an outgoing person, but I'm finding that in a group of twenty possibly thirty passerbys on the bus I'm slowly becoming the most extroverted person out there.
Perhaps this can be blamed on the anonymoty that we can generally hide in on the internet. Where we an say whatever we want and it doesn't effect us one bit. Or, perhaps it's the unveiling of the anonymous user. Where one can see your face and know exactly who this high and mighty arse that's calling them some horrid name really is. For whatever the reason people today are dead and oblivious, if not fearful of making contact with someone in real life before (pardon he pun) Second Life. Perhaps if we all took the time to think outside of ourselves for a few moments thee world wouldn't be so fucked up, but in truth no one is that selfless.

We all know bout quantum physics. We all know tAbout the worlds splitting in two at each decision made by every singular man. We all know that, somewhere out there we have been dead a thousadn times over, but what if these worlds upon worlds collided?

What happens when the irrational is no longer rational?

Enough self proclaimation, and superfluous bullshit.
