Once again...

One week down, six more to go.
and just 8 more days of my first spring class!

Otherwise, I'm feeling the rush and work load coming from spring courses... eek!

On a non-sappy note, I just felt like posting even though I don't have anything exciting to update on. Lets see...

-planning to quit Shoppers and hopefully find a new job when my first spring course ends (or quit once I do find a job-that's smarter)
-figure out my flights with Airmiles to SAN FRANCISCO to visit my one and only auntie there!!!... I hate how one day the flight is there, the next day it's not, the following day it's there, and when I'm about to book it-ITS GONE! ugh. I'm so snatching the spot the next time I see it. (Using airmiles means you only get to select specific times and dates as the flight is free and you only have to pay tax-it feels like a race just to be able to be able to get a flight sometimes)

OH yea, so today in my Design for Sustainability class, we watched an evolution video with this scientist (dead now) as the commentator (how does this relate to the class? not a whole lot). I couldn't believe the things I was listening to and watching though. He outlined how the world began... billions of years ago in the cosmo ages? something like that and how dinosaurs suddenly became extinct and molecules turned into species, which became specialized and eventually developed into homo sapiens (aka us). Well, what does this mean? "Were cousins of the starfish," and we share a lot of things in common with the tree (laugh and roll my eyes). I guess people who don't believe in religion would believe in these things, but I just found it so funny how people would actually believe our ancestors were fishes from the sea that became turtles to be able to live on the land and that they somehow evolved intellectly; eventually transforming into hairy monkeys and gorilla all the way to talking, thinking human beings (WTH?!?!). I mean you got to have some common sense... perhaps my teacher is a firm believer of science harhar. Well, I guess I got a taste of the 'scientific' mentality today, since I don't recall ever watching videos regarding how the world became in my grade school days, in fact I never had a science vs. religion debate either. Perhaps a good thing?

Maybe some people who don't have any sort of faith just don't think critically to how the world came to be. Sad, but another reason to UN-brainwash these people and welcome Genesis to them ;)
On another note, my friend told me that apparently Revelations had predicted that a modern day country, that was a superpower and a highly technologically advanced nation would collaspe... Japan?! I thought that was pretty sweet, the bible is definitely full of wonders.

Wow, guess my initially undirected post became quite insightful don't you think?
