There aint no rest for the wicked!
That’s right, awesome and wicked people stay up alll night! If you sleep, you aren’t cool enough and that’s a fact. In fact, you suck even more than you think. Sure you may outlive the wicked.. Congratulations, you get to feel your bones ache, or watch your outer beauties sink to the ground while depleting resources that could be used to feed 8 starving children in Africa.
Stop and THINK about how humane you are being when you decide to be healthy. Hardly the environmentally conscious person.. Crapping, littering and contributing to commercial consumption for that extra 30 years of degrading the Earth – how selfish!
Far out!
More people should be awake and keep me online while I have to do work. MSN hits graveyard zone in about 20 minutes (2am).
*shivers and sways* I see dead people.
On writing essays.
One of the main reasions I decided to pick Engineering as one of my degrees is because I hate writing essays! In fact, even writing a coherent blog is a little above me and my structure is all messed up most of the time.
The dilemma of expression in an institutionalised medium.
And then, the lure of Arts was too much for me to resist and I succumbed to temptation and picked up Political Economy.. I actually started off doing French, as one does, but then decided that TAFE can facilitate the same education at a much lower fraction of the cost. When I get around to signing up for it, I’ll let you know.
But fuck essays!! Seriously!!! Below are the uninspiring questions of which I have the freedom to choose from. Some freedom.
1. What characteristics defined the global economy that ended in 1914 ?
2. What conditions in the 1920s and 1930s prevented the revival of a global economy as existed before 1914 ?
3. How successfully did the Australian economy function within the global environment between the two World Wars ?
4. What were the problems that authorities in the victorious economies thought might emerge throughout the 1940s, and what were the solutions that they devised ?
5. What and why was Post-War Reconstruction in Australia ?
6. What were some of the conditions that led to powerful cycles of international growth and recession in the 1970s and 1980s ?
I haven’t opened my textbook all semester and have only been to two lectures so far where I spent them talking to people on MSN and emailing to get jobs done (the Pod).
I’ve decided to be more deligent than normal as I do have some goals that I really want to accomplish/put myself in the best position to get them happening. Hmm, I’ll write a quick “How-to improve” for myself hahaha…although I am wasting a bit of time now at least I’m not on MSN or Gtalk or ..yeah.. excuses. Well I will write the how-to blog and then start working on it ASAP!
