I've decided to major in biology. There are so many fields of biology that interest me. Microbiology is super cool. Also, I'm in Phisiological Psychology right now. Kinda like neuroscience. Also cool. I'm thinking about minoring in Psych. I will probably keep going towards micro, though. I'm going to be at this school a year longer than anticipated because a few vital classes didn't transfer properly. It's kinda odd, because if I had gone to college right after high school then I would've graduated this past May. I'm the oldest girl in my suite (21, finally!) which is odd for me, because, just like in FVM, I've always been the youngest. I think I'm older than my RA, also, because she's a junior. I think she turns 21 later this fall. I have no problems with being older thought and taking my time. I had a great time doing it.
I've been totally craving chocolate today. eating tootsie rolls like candy. Anyway, i'm on face book people! look me up! :-D but don't stalk me... that's totally my thing... theif. Damnit Anyway, I've been thinking about doing my term paper on depression. Different kinds you know, what characterizes the different kinds, various kinds of treatment with their varying degrees of success. Seasonal depression, Post partum, PMDD, chronic depression? bi-polar? Then i was thinking to do it on like tourettes.... because i have a friend with tourettes... or perhaps childhood disorders... tourettes made me think of that b/c it develops in childhood. Perhaps something on how often childhood disorders are misdiagnosed...
Oh, well imagine; as I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor, and I can't help but to hear, no I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words : "What a beautiful wedding, what a beautiful wedding!" says the bridesmaid to a waiter. "Yes, but what a shame, what a shame, the poor groom's bride is a whore." I'd chime in with a "Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!" No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality. I'd chime in "Haven't you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?!" No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality. Well in fact well I'll look at it this way, I mean technically our marriage is saved! Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne! Oh! Well in fact well I'll look at it this way, I mean technically our marriage is saved ! Well this calls for a toast, so pour
I chime in with a "haven't you people ever heard of closing the *damn door!" No, it's much better to face this kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality. Thats got no relevancy to this post... i just think it's a pretty good song I had a class that changed the way I thought about a lot of things. We read books that really made you think and we had some great discussion. I mean some of the books, like "New Atlantis" by bacon... when I realized what was going on, I was like "Woah!" Completely shocked. I want to bring that here. I have a feeling there is no class at AU that will make you really think, and perhaps change the way you think. I am almost positive there is no reading of Aristotle or Plato here! Definitly not Bacon or Locke or Dostoevsky. (Anyone who knows me knows what class I'm talking about now, for sure!) I'd never know how to bring that here... that is the problem....

euro trash girl I'll have purple hair and blue eye liner. I wear a tight pink dress and a blue jean jacket. I wear my fuck me boots that come up to my knees. And my hair will be cut like kelly gray. And I'll probably feel like the multi colored angel headed euro trash hipster. (mmm, ginsberg!) I want to go to europe and look for something. Though this sounds like it sucks... I wanna try it once.

Galbraith enlightens us to an idea of eliminating poverty. He tells us of Herbert Spencer who believed in Social Darwinism: "the elimination of the poor is nature's way of improving the race." Society can only come to it's full potential if the impoverished leaches are knocked off. Galbraith also tells us of someone he calls a modern-day Spencer. Charles Murray stated that the government should simply cut off welfare, Medicaid and other government aid. Thus eliminating the poor. With these attitudes, I do not believe that we will be able to even alleviate poverty anytime soon.
