Infinite Improbability
Amusing I find it when there is all this work that needs to be done and one claims that 'there isn't enough time in the world' to get those things done and yet EVERYONE always seems to finish. A daunting truth that always amuses me.
Take for instance my past week: So much has happened that it has kept me distracted. You would think that people would prioritize - School comes first (I always say) and yet not once have I put my work down for work / picking up shifts or even volunteer activities that clearly take their toll on sleep time and what not.
Then taking into account life in general. Understaffed already and the person with my position contracts mono. Sad for him I must say but also no income for at least a month. Or take for instance something totally indirect like a person from high school (whom is a neighbor) happens to have been "released from the hospital to die at home". The guy wasn't the greatest of people to me and yet the way I was told about the situation (which I may add would have rather been ignorant towards) made it seem like it was my fault and I need to do something about it.
Then comes life's little distractions. Prime example: Final Fantasy XII. I swore I would put it off and yet I've racked 12 hours on the game and I've had it since Friday night and I worked all Saturday. Then comes the necessities like eating, bathing and sleeping (just another 15 minutes... 15 times) and really you have NO time. Somethings gonna come up, improbable perhaps and yet very probable. Then comes the complaining, OH MY GOD I HAVE NO TIME, NO FUN NO NOTHING NEVER EVER AGAIN SCHOOL IS THE DEVIL MY GPA !!!!! etc. And yet people are out having fun: dancing, drinking, dining, something not what one was to do in the first place.
Then they come up to you, "Did you study, how can you not have studied. Its a big test. How could you not have studied" but their claim of study is cram. Who studies anymore? Its always cramming. Then they question my habits. Sorry guys, I deem it pointless to cram study. If you didnt get it then and you dont get it now, you wont get it and why take time learning old stuff when the newer stuff is a) more applicable and b) is based on the older stuff. oh, and this paper stuff... I wrote an 11 page paper on Snells one liner law and I raped that into the ground.
2.5 Hour Science Paper vs. 'I'm dying trying to get my arts degree' Paper.
I got a 7 page EASC paper, A complete MACM Assignment and a Linear Algebra review done on Saturday... and I worked Saturday. Maybe I should get that arts degree.
