I have decided to conduct a social experiment of sorts. You know how people are constantly talking on their cell phones on the way to class? Well I'm going to make a concerted effort to listen in on these conversations (yes, I will eavesdrop), and I'll carry around a notebook in which to record snipits of conversations... I think it will shed a light on the state of college students and society today. I do not expect to get really uplifting results. I wonder what this says about me--that I would chose to take on such a project that I expect to have negative results. I will try to keep this bias in check.
the source of inspiration: a girl talking on the phone, "Whatever. We hate her, and that's all that matters."
so yeah, I'll give you a list at some point then.
and... there are so many things I've been meaning to write about. Hopefully I will get around to that at some point.

I will have to lists going:
one for beautiful comments, and one for insidious ones.
(I looked up insidious. the most applicable definition in this case is:
"Beguiling but harmful; alluring")
(then I looked up beguiling just to be sure:
roughly translated it means deceiving or amusing... interesting.)
in conclusion, I'm still searching for an adjective to maybe add to "insidious."
oh, and lately I have been really into dictionary.com. there are so many good words out there that we don't take advantage of.
This comment is almost longer than my actual blog entry... nice.
also I realize that some things can be both beautiful and horrible at the same time. Those are perhaps the most moving. perhaps I'll start a third collumn for that...
Fascinating.
