Highschool v2.0

I'm sure others out there have felt it, at least at times, as I have. Not always mind you, but every now and again, College just feels like an expansion of Highschool. You, you don't live with your parents, and you're time is a bit more 'your own,' but the same dramas and frustrations go on around here. I wonder if TheRealWorld we all anticipate and dread is maybe just Highschool v3.0 sometimes....

Had a test in Discrete today, which is what really brought this idea to the fore once again. I was sitting there, finished with my stest about 30min into a 50min period. And, of course, what did I do? I sat there pretending to go over my work (even though I was sure of my work, and knew I wouldn't find any flaws that were there anyways). You never want to be the first person to hand in your test (except when I was in CSC-124, where it was rather a matter of pride, heh heh). It's just not kosher. So I sat there for 20min until the period ended to turn in my paper. Even then, even after I'd stood up and gone out the door, no one else moved. Rather an odd feeling, I suppose...

Additionally, Maul (pronounced like 'Raul' with an M) has divided into it's smaller components, Meg and Raul. Seems they broke up, but Raul hasn't gotten it quite through his skull yet, even though Meg has said point-blank that she wants nothing to do with him anymore. I feel kinda bad for the guy, cause he's the real simple type, you know? I'm not sure what split them, but it must've been pretty bad, cause it's not like Meg to be so harsh. Perhaps they just got too close to fast....

Well, I have nothing to do for the next 6 hours, since my presentation was yesterday... I suppose I'll go shave, now. i'm gonna need a haircut before long, too, I think... Until next time. ^_^

Run, futher mucker, run.

A Question Of Honor

"After the Rapture and the establishment of New Jerusalem and the condemnation of all the rebels and sinners to Hell... how do we know none of the Christians that remain will ever be swayed away from the Will of God again? If even the angels, who I get the impression are largely spiritual extensions of God without the range of emotion or independence that humans enjoy, were capable of rebelling, how do we know that humans -- even in whatever "perfected" form they take in Heaven -- will be incapable of or unwilling to rebel? Surely God won't be revoking the entire human race's free will? So if we still have the ability to choose evil, how do we know we won't screw the whole thing up all over again?"

Kincaid makes a good point, but as I'm still afraid to comment on her Journal, I'll express my thoughts here.

Of course, the Rapture is not a Catholic notion. Not that Kincaid implied such, of course, but simply the Rapture, as such, has little religious meaning to me. Not that I even understand what the Rapture is, but...

( Back to Kincaid's point. )

The Second Update

Creative subject, don't you think?

Anyways, where did we leave off...?
Had my test, yes yes...uhm, I haven't done a whole lot since. I had lunch at around 1:00...
( That's Right...! )

Speaking of which...
