Today I learned not to overstep one's bounds when registering for classes. I think I have my schedule mostely mapped out but we'll see what the future holds. The only class I attended today, which was a class about Geoffery Chaucer was absolutely superb. I will return from Ireland with a supremelly elitist vision of myself. Fun fun for everyone and how very pretentious at the same time. That seems to be a word that will be used often, pretentious, I don't actually think myself pretentious, but I find it more fun to act that way. You tend to either get on people's nerves or confuse them. Either way you see a side of the people they don't intend to show, and as such you learn more about them. Pieces of what they try and hide from the world because they are embaressed of showing themselves because what they call home is something strange and weird to another. So what, it is better to be different than similar, to be different is to grow as a human, species, or being however deep you want to be. Just because your beliefs may differ from the norm doesn't always mean you are wrong.
Although I do believe there are universal laws like:
1: Never kill unless absolutely neccessary (up to interpretation)
2: Never lie (there never is really any reason even a "white lie")
3: Never try and destroy another's belief just try and enlighten. It is never your right to tell another what to think.
4: Always try and fight in the Weekend Wars ( who will win, time will tell (however some believe time is irrelevant))
Feeling melancholy yet.
Well I am having a blast whether thinking either blissfully or depressingly I think that I am having a good time and right now that is all that matters. As the Beatles said "Happiness is a warm gun" and none of them did anything to end their own lives so I think it is ok to think ANY thoughts as long as we consider the implications said thoughts could have on our or others lives.
Amen and long lives to everyone,
Matt Harren
p.s. And for those who may seem concerned I am completely content and full of the ambition to continue my life until every person in the world is somehow affected by me.
p.p.s I'm a little drunk.

Some quotes for your mood...and others.
If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.
-Henry David Thoreau
Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Do not be too eager to deal out death and judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends.
-Gandalf
What is the use of lying when the truth, well distributed, serves the same purpose?
-W.E. Forester
Now, don't be hasty.
