Speaking of AP Chem, I spent about 7 hours straight (no, I'm not exaggerating) doing homework today, and I still got it in late. Ah well. This homework is really screwing up my life (not that I ever had one). In fact, I really do need to get a life. It's funny, because I know (and have had at least 3 people tell me) tha if I keep working as hard as I do, I'm gonna burn out by age 20, but I can't seem to stop working as hard as I possibly can. I wonder if I'll be one of those workaholics who practically lives at work and never comes in contact with the outside world. Not a happy thought. I was looking at the livejournal posts of random people today, and it was funny to see how much people swear. In some of them, every other word was a cuss of some sort, and at least two of them started with "I'm fucked up." Here's a quote from one: "And even worse, they never got the hint. So I'm listening to people argue, yell, bitch, I want to strangle him because he won't just fucking GO AWAY but everything felt like it was fucking spinning out of goddamn control...I wanted to leave and it took everything I had to remain semi-calm and cordial." That was one of the better ones: the bad ones were fucking run on fucking and fucking didn't make any fucking sense. A few minutes ago, I (for no apparent reason) got really nervous about how model UN team is going to turn out, but there's nothing I can do now except wait. Cool Links:
well, just one: This Land - wicked funny Bush and Kerry animation Some guy named BillyBill said in the tagboard that I should read Chardin, so I went to the site he recommended, and that guy Chardin is awesome!!! "All around us, to right and left, in front and behind, above and below, we have only to go a little beyond the frontier of sensible appearances in order to see the divine welling up and showing through. But it is not only close to us, in front of us, that the divine presence has revealed itself. It has sprung up universally, and we find ourselves so surrounded and transfixed by it, that there is no room left to fall down and adore it, even within ourselves." That really goes with what Mrs. Lariviere said once: "The fact that everything works the way it does just reaffirms my faith in God." That's deep. And Chardin (or Mrs. L :-)) is my hero of the day. Anyway, I'm gonna wrap this up, as my mom is going to come in any second and kick me off the computer, so see all y'all in a week! |
