And now it's time for another good idea/bad idea.

GOOD IDEA: Drink one of those five-hour-energy things to get through the last afternoon class of the week as something other than a zombie.

BAD IDEA: Drink one of those five-hour-energy things once every five hours to try and negate not having slept the night before. Three drinks in is a very very bad place, and that's before the crash.

This has been another good idea/bad idea. Thank you for your attention.

Wow. Even in community college people are going crazy about Augmented. And this is a city college, filled with freaks anyway. How'd that TV show put it? "What is community college? Well, you've heard all kinds of things. You've heard it's loser college, for remedial teens, twentysomething dropouts, middle-aged divorcees, and old people keeping their minds active as they circle the drain of eternity."

So basically I go to school with a healthy chunk of the freaks and failures in Chicago. People who can barely read and skinnydip in a public pool (ew) still think they have Important Things To Say about the Augmented debate, at least until they get distracted by a jump rope or something shiny. (Of course personally I think having a 'debate' is kind of stupid in the first place. Like arguing's going to make any of it go away.)

If we weren't freaks and failures and kind of lazy, there'd probably be explosions. There'll definitely be twisted rebar and destroyed buildings if I keep getting cornered by the rabid ones.

....reading what I just wrote, I sound a little angry. I'm mostly bored and annoyed. Can't we all argue about baseball or something else just for a while? Isn't there real news going on anywhere?

What I learned in economics class this week: the Depression was really, really depressing. I'm pretty sure I learned that in history class sometime (in high school maybe) but now I have numbers and theory and I'm pretty sure I don't want to be an economist. Of course I never wanted to be an economist.

Maybe that's what I should do, just take classes from different departments until I find something I like well enough to do forever.

Magnetism, as you recall from physics class, is a powerful force that causes certain items to be attracted to refrigerators. )
