I’ve learned that publishers will come out with new editions for their textbooks in order to make sure that students buy directly from the publisher instead of amongst each other. I have to say that it’s a pretty good move on their part, but really, how are we supposed to save money!? They know that we’re a bunch of cheap and poor people! Have they no mercy for us?! Damn you… damn you all to hell! (Maybe.)
My first console ever was a hand-me-down Nintendo that barely worked about 80% of the time. I didn’t get any shiny playstation 3 or xbox’s. I got a a ratty console that I had to blow into about 70% of the time just to get the game to work for the first 3 minutes. Am I complaining a little? Yes, but mostly because my parents decided to spoil my brother with not one, but two consoles.
I’m pretty proud of myself. I’ve been able to hold onto my Seiko watch for three years now and haven’t had any problems with it since *knock on wood.* My first few watches were lost or broken, especially my first Seiko watch. What really amazes me is how someone can still hold onto a pocket watch and not lose it, you know? I had a tough time holding onto that first Seiko watch and all it took was a stupid mistake to leave it behind. Anyway, I know better now.
The human body amazes me, especially when it comes to the whole reproductive system. I mean, there are so many different chemicals, you know? They range from testosterone to progesterone to estrogen and so many more. Each chemical has a different activity, a different purpose and without one or the other, nothing really works right. It’s truly amazing to study; I just wish that my fascination wasn’t so on the surface because maybe, I’d want to study a little more about it.
I went home this past weekend and I noticed that my parents were turning the garage into a full bedroom, complete with a bathroom and everything. That’s really crazy! I wish I could do that easily, or at least have a nicer looking room with working toilets and clean showers, but I can’t. One day, maybe if I marry rich, but not any time soon.
