You must think I'm drunk again. Don't you?

I guess that I have an issue that is going to weigh heavily on my mind, but I have to embrace the realization that there is no favorable outcome either way. It is a significant issue, but not one you should be worried about. I will stop here.

What are you doing right now... outside of posting?

I'm sorry about the last post. I really think I knew what was the best thing and I was asking for an excuse. I won't ask you or anyone because there would be nothing that makes it right.

So don't worry about that. Thanks.

Both. I played DS and HATED Hannhar. There was little difference from the two paths.

I have started writing about Revan's first encounter with Yuthura. She is afraid of him at first, but then she learns more about his situation. I'll stop there. I am considering skipping ahead and coming back to the 'war chapters' later. I want to get to the Revan story again.

There's a question that has been on the back of my mind lately and I just need to know whether it's just me or if it's normal.

I've been encountering many situations that seem to follow the course of story plots, but I am unsure what to make of them. Although I read and written stories, I can't escape the fact that they are fictional and can't be relied upon like a real experience. SiD does not reflect a lot of what I've lived, but I see some situations in it that seem to appear in the real world. Is it more likely that I just let my imagination run wild, or should I restrain it completely and not associate SiD with my real life at all?

Do you often compare your own life to that of a fictional story?

I didn't get a proper instructor for chemistry and when I did soil science, that deficiency cost me heavily. I should have not just given up because it was difficult to understand. I'm not a chemist, but need to have at least some knowledge about such a basic subject.

I would agree that we end up wasting much of our lives for knowledge. I like learning and expanding my horizons, but don't want to get so miserable that life isn't worth living. I don't have the luxury of becoming a narrow specialist in geography. The broader my education, the less likely I will have deficiencies like chemistry in the future.

You do have a good balance I'll say.

Appreciate you saying that. I won't say the opposite and be so modest like usual, but I'll just say I'm not happy with the way things are. That is what will force me to keep trying.

It's alright to admit one's qualities and be proud of it, but we should expect that we will become something greater than we are now. Most Americans don't think much of this and I feel superior, yet repulsed that there are so few like us in the world.

I suppose that they would be content to get a constant supply of food, but they may not be happy to be so restricted. I like dolphins, but don't like intelligent creatures being exploited in such ways.

I respect the dolphin much more than the chimp because of the way they never fall asleep and must always breath consciously. That makes sense, considering that a breath of water would be fatal to them.

You haven't heard me, but I would describe my speech as fairly low, but not the "deep booming" sound that tall dark and spiffy actors have.

I speak very clearly, but not loud enough for most people to hear. I am not accustomed to being around deaf people. And there are often times where I try to give a long sentence, but have to end it and rephrase it. That shows much in how I write as well.

Well I'm already behind in some, but only because I had to rearrange my current schedule and leave one class ready for the drop. I have Fridays off as of now, but might have to compromise the extra day for a more manageable Mon-Thur.

Thanks, but intelligence is something that can slip away if one is too lazy. I'm going to have to start kicking myself to get on top of things. I don't want to give up all that I have worked for, so I will manage my time around my subjects and only take breaks and have fun when I have the time.

I appreciate your confidence and will work to live up to it.

That is a very lovely accent you have.

I'm going to record that 15 seconds and replay it over and over again!

What did you think of the dolphins you saw there? They are regarded as the second most intelligent animal on the planet.

I have an apple ibook, which gives up to 6 hours of use(new) Batteries lose their life as time goes on, so my last one was completely dead in three years. I don't have a backup.

I've been getting bogged down in some homework already in one of my least favorite classes. I don't know any of the professors I had two years ago, so I can't predict how these next two are going to have us work in their classes. I can only say I hate statistical analysis. lol

Keep your eyes on him. He may be a stauker. If he just happens to be near you, but is just going to the same location, he might not be. Just try to ensure that he is in front of you whenever he emerges.

I told you about the new battery in my computer...

It is remarkable how much freedom I now have when I can take my computer with me and expect it to last all day anywhere. It almost feels completely new.

If you would like, I could help you with those problems. I'm not an English instructor, but I could tell you of such things.

I don't know was a 'passive noun' is, but I would bet that it includes words like 'them, its, where'

adverbs are like "was, from, and is" They are not really actions, but involve being in a certain state of existence.

'Apparent boyfriend?' Is that just a random figment of the dream, or was he based on a real person?

Don't worry about it. My father makes it a habit to not judge people by their degrees one way or another. I don't think any less of that because I have had that kind of thing happen all the time in High School.

Was the test hard?

I would say that I can't do that kind of thing very well. I would be better at writing an essay than doing multiple choice or short answer. They simply have to count what facts are needed and they can judge everyone just as fairly.

Query: When did you get to sleep last night?

I've been in and out of consciousness for about three hours and woke up very early this morning. I remembered one of the dreams I had... you were in it. I had been starting to become independent and was living on my own. At one point, I got lost and was completely disoriented, but we ran into each other... except I remember it like we had known each other before and haven't seen the other for years until we ran into each other again.

This may closely correspond with the friend you told me of who you haven't seen for years. Does this sound like it came from that conversation?

That internship opportunity I had in sight was not really what I expected it to be. My goal was to get job experience, but if it pays, then even better. But work that is only a community service and can't qualify for college credit isn't worth squandering.

Now I'm going into this semester with five classes with the expectation that I'll drop one if/when I get a real internship. At this point in time, a degree is a dime a dozen, so I need to back it up with field studies and prior jobs on my resume. Only then can I put my talent to good use.

What do you think of your classes? Anything that you find especially interesting? (I really would like details if you wish to give them.)

Good evening to you... glad to say that for once.

Squander your time working? That's a new one on me.

Although I know everyone needs to keep a balance, I see the opposite side of that coin. I have the means to work or to squander all my time with entertainment. I lean more towards the entertainment side, but know that it's better to study at this day in age because it defines the rest of one's life.

I think that if I were dedicated to my work that I could choose not to be later. I guess that you know what your doing and I know what must be done. It's always better to work because it reflects the rest of your life. How much value do you think all those hours of KOTOR mean to us now?

I'll keep what you said in mind. And it's not like I alone can or should try to convince others to think differently.

Whatever the way you think of yourself, I rarely have on the back of my mind that I'm speaking to someone seven years younger than me. You really know much about life that people (at least Americans) don't understand unless they've lived long enough to learn more about how the world works.

I truly feel that I could turn to you for advice and really trust in what you say. This may really be sucking up, but you really know much more about the way life works than the majority of my HS class. If you think you act like a kid, I see an adult at the other side of this forum.

This completely went against the last post you gave, so I'll just answer the last comment. I do not actually live for delayed rewards, but have to often put aside the short-term rewards in order to accomplish what I must for later. I know how to have a good time, but I have to learn to restrict it when it is not required.

I've usually thought that, but tried more to ACT mature. The sacrifice was that I never could get along with other children my age because I tried to think and act above them. It didn't mean I was cocky and arrogant, but often just tried to behave like the adults I admired.

I look highly on you because you (at least what you chose to show) seem more like an equal than as a pier or a child. When I speak to you, I don't regard you any differently than I would one of my instructors. I don't really know anyone else quite like that.

How I say it?

Here goes: How do you manage to keep such a positive attitude during times of intense chaos and still have time to lift others' spirits?

I really enjoy talking to you and knowing that you often make the time to reply and give thoughtful and inspiring comments. I only hope that this does not detract from the rest of your day. I know that I shouldn't be keeping you up to 4:00 AM. It may be your choice, but I don't want to inspire you to keep that up.

Maybe I should get up at 3:00 AM to talk with you the next day?

But I do hate Atris!

I understand and appreciate your confidence in me. I suppose that the last semester was hard for me, but it gave me the realization as to what caused it in the first place. So now if I choose to attend class, I CANNOT allow myself to divide my attention... otherwise, I waste time and energy later. I can enjoy writing SiD, but if I can't work to earn a living, I'll never get a chance later.
