| You know whats sad? I have all these seemingly brilliant thoughts (and i'm sure you have too) and I can't get them out right. its actually not even my fault or anyones. It is just that everything i say to one person will have something lost in the translation from my brain to my mouth to your ears or eyes. Even this that i'm writing right now is not fulfilling what i want to say. I think maybe this is what drives people mad.
My life is way too easy and i'm damn thankful
I never understood the importance of public school until now. Thank you Kempner.
Bonds is on roids. He cheated and deserves his asterisk. Case closed
New Orleans is a mess in all ways imaginable. In a state this fucked up, its no wonder. Had it not been for Scott Cowen, I'd probably be at UT or Rice.
On that note, I have a hard time believing this city of less than 200,000 is worth the figures of money that the city wants to fix it. Yes, it is enormously unique and theres no place in the states like it, but this city was on the downslide before the cane.
Maybe i stand alone in this, but I don't understand fraternities. Whats the appeal? Do people really feel that strong of a need to be part of a group? I can't imagine the pledging is enjoyable (When you land in jail because of what your "friend" tells you to do, is it really worth it?). I've been in a school with frats for about 4 months and it really just boils down to paying someone to be your friend
Life is like economics...up and down but always growing...
I never feel like i've finished anything when i update this...maybe another day | | |
| Wow i haven't looked at this thing in awhile. Christmas was good, rang in New Years with Anna and now i'm in New Orleans attending my first semester at my real college. Well orientation at least. Theres alot of work that still needs to be done here, lots of debris laying around and building damage. The street cars aren't running which was a major mode of transportation, which makes it more difficult for the carless to get around. I want school to start so i can bury myself in something. I just don't like the thought of orientation being days long. But oh well, by tuesday things will start and my 17 and half hours of classes will probably start kicking my ass. I ended up with a new roommate, which is surprising considering some people didn't have roommates in my hall and everyone is living in a double. Oh well, i guess we will see if i can handle sharing my space for 6 months. Don't get me wrong he seems pretty cool but i would just rather have my own room.
i miss anna...alot

| I'm done with classes until I go back to Tulane, which, obviously is nice.
I'm a little hacked off at the TA for my Philosophy class for giving me a C on my paper. I thought it was at least a B paper. But noooo. She thought i didn't counterbalance my arguments with enough things that go right with affirmative action. Why does it matter if there are more (i'm assuming she meant) minority lawyers and doctors available to minority patients? I don't understand at all why there needs to be diversification among our doctors as long as the best healthcare is provided to the nation. I thought that was at least something that was semi-fucking obvious to anyone intelligent. Whatever other people got screwed too so i'm not the only one bitching about it. I'd post my paper but its long and even this small rant would be too long for me lol.
Props to Alex for making the paper readable.
one exam two papers. I think i did alright for picking my classes (my polisci teacher called the exam a myth, haha).
Hope to see you guys on Christmas Break! | | |
