so i was going to do school work, but it turns out i left the info i need at home, and the teacher hasn’t posted the class results of the experiment. oh well… it’s almost thanksgiving, and everything is in the lull of the storm that is finals.

yee haw for school though, school and work.

apparently i signed up for this “Mr. Science” calander thing while i was walking around the biology building today, and of course it’s someone i know, so i’m not going to be able to say no to them. now i’m stuck though, i gotta think of something absolutly rediculous to pose for in this calander. I got nothing right now, but i want to brain storm something up that is just border-line offensive. pushing the envelope a little, but still acceptable. it’s a tough thing to do.

anyways, i alluded to the whole vanilla ice thing a couple days ago, and i still have to say that was one of the best concerts i ever went to. the setting was rediculous, the artist was rediculous, and it only cost 15 bucks.

my favortie part of the show was where right before he played ice ice baby, he started saying

“Music isn’t about an image. Music isn’t about a gimmick. Music isn’t about selling out and making money. MUSIC IS ABOUT THE FUCKING MUSIC! DOWN WITH THE MAN!”

it was on e of the most cliched things i think i have ever heard, and i couldn’t help but bust out laughing at the whole thing. it was just rediculous to the nth degree, and i loved every second of it.

but yeah, this week of school has been blissfully slow, and i kinda take a look back at it from time to time, i mean this time a week and a half ago, i was about ready to just quit school. this happens everytime i have a slough of tests i realize though. then i finish, pull out of it doing pretty well, and then start prepping for the next set of death. the further i get into this stuff though, the less it seems that i understand. i mean, no matter how much i study for these tests, it’s always my intuition and general knowledge that pulls me through.

the last biochemistry test i took was basically just taking some vauge terms we had learned in class and then all of the sudden having to apply organic chemistry to how proteins bond and retain their conformation. there were no questions like this when we were doing the problem sets, and it hardly mentioned it when i read through the book. but i get to the test and i just reguritate crap up that makes sense due to material i’ve learned over the past couple of years and end up getting a right answer cause i can put the components together that i already know to get some answer that’s pretty close to the right one.

i feel like an idiot the entire time i’m doing this though, i barley really understand what the book is getting at half the time, i scarcley understand the points that the teachers are trying to make in class, but everything ends up falling into place despite my feeling of being completley lost and unprepared.

this has been what frustrates me about school latley. but the funny thing is, the more people that i talk to, the more i realize everyone’s in the same boat.

come to think of it, it’s pretty much the way everyone is about anything these days. no one seems to know what’s going on. i certainly don’t know what’s going on, but i can make some fairly accurate guesses from time to time. even the people who are supposed to dictate what is going on (in a school or work or societal sense, no offense to JC) seem to make decisions based on something else from someone else who has no idea what’s going on.

despite no one really knowing what the hell they’re doing, things still happen.

that’s some crazy shit.
