^wow NeverMore, that's the coolest list of people ever.
Ok, today one of my friends was wearing a Kurt Cobain shirt, and my other friend's girlfriend asked who it was. Every single person in the group stopped what they were doing, looked at her and walked away. It was hilarious. His shirt said "Kurt Cobain" in big blue letters, I mean seriously how dense can you get?
What kind of deprived person doesn't know who Kurt Cobain is/was
, no but in all honesty that's like something I'd ask, something obvious with the answer spelled out like that,lol

Yeah, it's a stupid long drive... woke up at 11:30 am... left at 12pm... out of city by 1:30... arrived at destination at 10:10pm I ran into icy roads about half way through the drive... then for the final 200km it was snowing pretty thick... GC is and isolated town in the middle of the muskeg and hidden away in the mountains... (funny thing is that there is a prison here... it's the perfect place, 184 kilometers north to the nearest town, and 147 kilometers south to the nearest town... in the winter you'd die of exposure trying to travel across land, in the summer you'd be mauled to death by grizzly bears)... not to mention it's all muskeg and provincial parks, so have to drive slower for moose, elk, caribou, and deer... I nearly hit a wolf trying to cross the road... no word of a lie, it scared the honeysuckle out of me... woke me up cause I was sort of day-dreaming/driving... and it's -43 degrees celcius, so my car almost didn't start after I stopped 15 minutes for groceries in a town a few hours away from here. Had me worried for a minute when it wouldn't turn over... was still three plus hours from my destination. ****, every time I'm just happy I make the trip in one piece lol... Once I had my timing belt go in my car... cost me over 700 to have a new belt installed, 50 for the tow, and another 100 for the hotel and food while I waited to get my car back on the road... was a bad experience. Should really put out the cash for a new truck, but I'm too frugal... can't justify it as long as my car runs.
That is a stupid long trip, and from the sound of it, very dangerous, don't see how you wouldn't day dream going that long, yea it sounds to me, who has practically no car knowledge, that you need a new car, those conditions must be hell on engines, hope your first day back went well
The closest thing we have to muskegs here, would be the wetlands every where, and yea your not going to climb through that stuff
My day was pretty average, I woke up too late this morning to fit in breakfast so I just crammed down a cereal bar and went to class at 10, it was zoology. I got done the reading that was on taxonomy but only grasped a very little bit of it, I absolutely hate taxonomy, which sucks because this course is zoology with an emphasis on evolution and
taxonomy, I can't stand taxonomy, I understand it's significance to biology but why make it so complex? Here's an sample of what I read:
The relationship between a taxonomic group and a phylogenetic tree or cladogram is important for both theories(of taxonomy). This relationship can take one of three forms:monophyly, paraphyly, or polyphyly. A taxon is monophyletic if it includes the most recent common ancestor of the group and all descendants of that ancestor. A taxon is paraphyly if it includes the most recent common ancestor of all members of the group and some but not all descendants of that ancestor. A taxon is polyphyly if it does not include the most recent common ancestor of all members of a group; this condition requires that the group has had at least two separate evolutionary origins, usually requiring independent evolutionary acquisition of similar features.
Yea that goes on for 15 long pages,kinda helped me to understand it just now typing it
But anyway before I got sidetraacked, I got out of biology and had an hour break I should have used to eat but instead I went and listened to music, so I went to political ideologies on an empty stomach and it was a really good lecture on the definition of what ideology is, and I guess I got too into it and at the very end of class had to add my two cents, where I argued that Marx's theory on how ideology was a false consciousness, was heavily due to environmental factors that he faced much as Hitler saying that people didn't desire freedom, they needed someone to tell them what to do,was due to him living in post WW I Germany and how the people of Germany were shown that personal freedom led them to rubble,but it didn't come out like that, I said something about how Marx lived in russia (which is entirely wrong and made me feel really dumb don't know why I said that) and something about the working class, then I think I muttered "you know what I mean" *hits self in forehead* And since it was the end of class I stayed and he told me how my argument was flawed, and somehow what I said would be to dismiss ideologies entirely or something, I just nodded a lot and said yea I wasn't paying attention
Then instead of getting something to eat like I should have again, I went back to the dorm and played some Oblivion, till the guy I play ping pong with showed up and wanted to play, so we went to the philosophy house basement and played ping pong for a while which was fun, but I was so hungry that I didn't play very well. Then after that I finally ate, and went back to the dorm and killed some more time then I read some things I needed to read for class tomorrow and now I'm here,lol
Whew, how was everyone else's day?
