Log VI: A Lost Day and a World Conquered

I decided yesterday that I would not post that night since so little had been accomplished during the day. I did get to spend a few hours with my prom date and her friend, who was also very nice, and had an interested ride home not knowing where in the world I was with less than a quarter of a tank of gas, but, overall, nothing really influenced me or motivated my writing - though I must admit I had more fun on such a gray, drizzly, dull day than I would have expected, out and about and then back home in my basement (minus the pig pile).

Today I came face to face with just how cynical and vain I can really be in public. I hope my mind exaggerated the extent of those circumstances but being aware of them still makes me concerned.

Today I went to tour Assumption College and Fitchburg State College with a very closed mind. I'm honest in saying that I did open my mind midway through my tour at Assumption, but still the fact that I so cynically made up my mind previously over what I would believe about the school before going annoys me. That being said, I have to be fair and say that comparatively the two schools are lower than the ones I previously visited. That, however, does not mean they are out. I know that money is tight nowadays and I have to frugal. The schools did have nice aspects to them in addition to the bad, which is to be expected with nearly everything, clearly, so I will be applying to them when the time comes.

After getting home with more of an open heart for things of the college nature, I took it pretty easy with dinner and then a quick walk to hang out with some friends.

I stood in the rain for a while again today since I love the rain.

We ended up in my basement playing a healthful game of risk that we never finished (anyone surprised) and then I ended up having a conversation based around out slightly differing 'moral compasses' and then writing this post.

Most of the conversation is personal, but I'll put in a small bit here just to show where we ended up with it.

Friend: i need 2 find people with common sense
willgenesiscc: but as far as I can tell it's not that big of a problem to let them have fun
willgenesiscc: Their sense is pretty common, actually. We're the one's out there. Unless you disagree in which case I'm out there and apart from them. It's all relative
Friend: u really like using big words and creating complex sentences dont u?
Friend: instead of simply being blunt about it
willgenesiscc: I'm just thorough =D
Friend: lol
willgenesiscc: I'm more biased if I'm blunt
Friend: thats bad?
willgenesiscc: not necessarily, but it's not very just as far as I can tell

There's a lot more to this conversation that I wish I could should since I think it really gives a good insight on how my mind works morally, but I'm unfortunately sworn to secrecy and already pushing the boundries of that.

Night, World
