• So my flooble chatterbox appears to have expired due to no one ever wanting to talk to me in person…eh, que sera, sera

  
  

  It was back to the wonderful world of science today as Psych 116, my final core course for my major began. I successfully managed to get there only 10 minutes late, partially becuase i had to find parking and partially because I forgot what room it was supposed to be in. oops.

  
  

  The universe used to be so simple. It was full of ignorance and the scientist panned around like a prospector over a mountain stream looking for the gold of knowledge among the gravel of unreason, the sand of uncertainty, and the little whiskery eight legged swimming things of superstition. Occasionally he would straighten up and say things like “Hurrah, I’ve discovered Boyle’s Third Law.” And everyone knew where they stood. But the trouble was that ignorance became more interesting, especially big fascinating ignorance about huge and important things like matter and creation, and people stopped building their little houses of rational sticks in the chaos of the universe and started getting interested in the chaos itself-Partly because it was a lot easier to be an expert on chaos, but mostly because it made really cool patterns that you could put on a T-shirt

  
  

  The above paragraph is taken from Terry Pratchett, an incredibly insightful author who you should check out, because if you read my site, you, he and I all share a similar sense of humor with a healthy does of cynicism

  
  

  Aside from that…only 6 million things to do in the month of october…if only I was an immortal. I would still have the same problems, but procrastination would become SO much easier.

  
  

  *sigh*

  
  

  Back to work then.

  
  

  Moral of The Story: Science is confusing…but makes for a good t-shirt
