letter to the prospective student

Sup prospective student

So if they do the same blogs every year, how come we’ve never seen this kind of letter?  Did we not have students do this before, or were they like, just never shown.  Anyways, to give you a little preview of what we learn in this class, today we discussed Nyan Cat and hot Bulgarians.  So yeah, if you want some of that, this class, right here.  I bet our teacher just like, withdrew all of these letters to us because they were like this one, and don’t really talk about teaching at all.  Not like anyone besides him checks the blogs, but maybe just a precaution. 

We can basically say whatever we want here, because we can, and it’s seen as a different perspective.  And different perspectives are really valued I guess-even if they’re wrong.  So sometimes we can just troll the whole class, all period.  But anyways, it’s a good class, so take it. 

I'll come bust in your class one day, so expect it!

Thoughts about earlier thinking

I have not changed.  My way of thinking, my goals, they have not changed.  What has changed has been my experiances, and what I've learned to do or avoid to get what I want.  For the most part, these were not drastic things either.  What has always fit me still works for me, I have no need for any change in how I think.  I'm a fairly static character, I've been the same way all throughout high school.  How I've shown what I'm thinking may have changed, but not the thoughts in themselves.  Unless something happens, I am sure I will remain the same in my path of thinking, and unchanging in general.

surrounded by cuckoos, but I was the crazy one

"In a mad world, only the mad are sane."  Like an episode of The Twilight Zone, difference in a single person, from that person's point of view, is madness.  You know who's really crazy, only because you are in your own state of mind.  You will never understand their world, and neither will they to yours.  Everyone is different, everyone has problems, everyone thinks differently.  But to fit in the most, thats the goal right?  Theres nothing wrong with conforming a little bit.  Go against what you believe, what you feel, and learn to feel love.  Can you convince people to a position having nothing in common with them and not being able to relate to them?  Of course not.  Splashing black paint into a white wall will only inspire those who see it to get rid of the black paint, while pouring white paint onto your wet black splotch on the wall will dilute the color- and no one will notice it.  And even though no one notices, you notice.  A change has been made, and perhaps things are different.  Now you can continue to add layers and layers of black splotches with the now diluted white paint, and change it completely eventually.  You can have a black wall, and none will be the wiser, as it will have originally been that white color. 

Alone and Together

"Every living creature dies alone".  Everyone is seperate.  And everyone dies alone.  Which is why one should live life together with others.  When the time comes, it doesn't matter if someone dies without anyone around him in an alley, or surrounded by loved ones in a hospital.  No matter what happened in life, as soon as you start to end you are deserted.  No one can follow you, and no one should.  I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to be remembered by what happened before the thing that leads up to my death and not my final words.  What you do beforehand really shows who you are, dispite how you felt about everything. Whether you choose to reveal true intentions is up to you, depending on motive.  Fooling people in life, together, and being honest while dying, alone.  Keep up a mask.  It's fine if no one knows, we all die alone.                              

save the earth

Unless things get really bad, no real action will be taken to :save the earth'.  Sure there will continue to be the little hipster movements about riding a bike or being vegan or whatever, butI'm talking about something that will actually help.  Punishments, while sometimes harsh, are rarely enforced.  In a day, I could dump every piece of trash I have and have absolutely nothing happen.  It's not even a threat enough that I would have to go out of my way to hide it, it still remains easier than simply throwing the trash out most of the time.  Now, don't misunderstand- I don't litter.  It's not that I care about saving the earth more or less than any other daily occurance- I simply find it repulsive.  Walking around, and seeing trash on the ground, disgusting.  Though trash cans have definately been improved in terms of how they look in the city, they still represent a disposal area.  If at every corner there was simply a disposal area comprised of a slick metal door on the ground, I'm sure that would be more effective. It's not only the trash itself that are littering the city. The trash cans, which are filled with it, are they much better?  You wouldn't want to have garbage at every corner, so how is having a great big collected pile much better?  Sure, it's contained, but it's still out in the open.  Now the personal ones in alleys, thats a good idea.  Not only do they not look as bad, the bright blue ones for recycling draw your attention for anyone actually LOOKING to throw something out.  Not only that, they are in the alleys, not presented for everyone while trying to display something else as well.
