well..

This is my first blog - so let's see how this goes.

I wonder sometimes what the thought process is like in other people's minds. How they come to the conclusion of their opinion or a problem. And why they think that if someone else doesn't agree with them, the other person is automatically wrong. For example, I was sitting in biology class today really not paying attention, but that's besides the point. Anyway, the professor is explaining to us the Bioethical Flowchart. She uses cigarette smoking as an example. I'm not going to sit here and explain what the flowchart actually is, but it brought up a debate. Someone had suggested that they should deny cigarette smokers health insurance because they are only killing themselves so why should the government pay for them to go to the doctor. Now I'm a smoker, but that's not why I decided to get into the debate, basically she started this entire argument because she is against smoking, so she feels everyone else should be also. That's fine if you have an opinion, but keep your beliefs to yourself and don't try to force them onto other people. It's annoying. Anyway, we then had to do our own presentation using this flowchart thing and her topic was overpopulation and saying that the government should only allow families to have children based on how much money they make. That caused even more of a debate to the point of her screaming at me from across the lecture hall. I'm sorry, if you're ignorant to the real world and to what actually goes on, please keep your mouth shut because no one now wants to hear what you have to say.

Anyway, my school absolutely sucks. People can be so ignorant, especially here. I don't know what it is about this campus, but the people are just not cool. At all. And the staff is completely incompetent and I'm pretty sure that I could teach half of these classes better than the professors here.. just saying.

I realize that I can be extremely arrogant at some times, it's my sarcasm. Don't take anything to offense. I really don't care what people think about my beliefs or opinions. I'm glad to hear your side of the story if it actually makes sense and is an intelligent argument, if not, please don't waste my time.

This day could not possibly go by any slower. I count the minutes until I am out of this hellhole and can go home, which at this point is even more of a hellhole, but it's one I can seclude myself in. So that's all I have to say for now - but I'll leave you off with a little something ..

"Sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel. And if you are ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them, too--even when you're in the dark. Even when you're falling." - Morrie Schwartz
