So much things everywhere, and all I do is catch a small glimpse... it's like I don't take my time to understand anything anymore... what is fully understanding something anyway?  Tolerating it until it doesn't aggravate you?

What is understanding someone?  Putting things in words the other person couldn't do and that person realizing that that's what the person wanted to say?

Things to Bring Me Back to Earth

-I am not in war
-I am not within the 200,000 people dying of starvation each year

Things to dance about:
-My family is alive
-She is still living and does not have a boyfriend
Gained a HUGE appreciation for short stories...

if Legend of Mana was released in this generation of consoles, it would be getting 10/10s.  Just a bad time for a game like this in 1999, being side by side Final Fantasy VII, IX, Chrono Trigger, and all those other rpgs with Epic storylines.

Excited to start Romancing Saga... and maybe I'll replay Atelier Iris 3.

Putting Off Things Until Tomorrow... or Until I Die

I was four when I realized I had people around me, and that things will always be the same.
Until I turned four and three quarters.

It was a karaoke video of ... this guy who died.  What is death?

Being buried.  You're in a enclosed casket underground, can't breath, bugs everywhere.

But that won't happen until many years from now... so don't worry about it.

So don't worry about the future.  Dying won't happen until many years pass.
Don't worry about the test, your future job, your future family, your own well being, because nothing is going to happen until many years pass.  Just wait.  Procrastinate.  Because nothing will affect you until many years pass.
Really cool people can be boring, so it's okay to be boring.

Everyone just looks so perfect... until they say something.

Actually, time IS valuable.  Because... well, I'm still in school OTL

Notes

Henri Bergson
The pure present is an ungraspable advance of the past devouring the future.  In truth, all sensation is already memory.

Hegel
At the same time that 'I' am the content of a relation, 'I' am also that which does the relating.

Hegel believed that a person is not merely conscious of self and object as separate entities, but through the projection of the self via the mediation of the object is volitionally able to gain a deeper understanding of the self.  All of which constitutes self-consciousness.
