Nothing much to say here. Just an update I guess.

My dad surprised me and pre-ordered AC2 today at Best Buy, which is AWESOME. Too bad I won't actually be here when they have to pick up the game. I'll be preparing for finals when that happens. But I'll be home about a week later, so it's no biggy. Bet you can guess what I'll be doing during winter break (at least what I HOPE I'll be doing!). For now, I have an empty pre-order case to stare at. It's VERY pretty, but not the right size (PS3 game cases are smaller). I also checked out the price of a PSP. Only $160, which is less than I expected. I might buy one/ask for one as a gift.

Worked on student loan things today. That MPN... man. I tell you, that "death" clause is seeming more like a goal than a clause (HA jk!). But since my parents don't qualify for some loan, my university's going to deduct $4,000 somehow, somewhere. I'm not 100% certain how that all works, but hey. We only have to come up with $2,000 now.

And I came to a decision today that when I travel abroad (not if; it's required for my major and you're a dork if you don't at my school), I'll go to France, Italy, Switzerland, or Israel. We'll see where I actually end up but it's all good!

Also got an update from the Honors program. THAT made me want to feel like jumping off a cliff. But I always wondered in high school how well I could have dealt with IB, so I'm not leaving that to chance now. If Honors is too much, I can always drop it. I can't get back in.



That's what she said.


.......... I'm also very tired.


Good night!

Genetic memory describes a variety of processes in biology and psychology by which genetic material confers a memory of an individual's or species' past history. It can refer to the genetic code of DNA, epigenetic changes to the genetic material, the inheritance of instinct, or racial memory in psychology.

Personally, I find a lot of credibility in the idea/theory/fact of genetic memory. I mean, I realize that God does bestow upon us each our own gifts, but certain things are just not explained away so easily.

An example? Yes ma'am. I really do have more than just this one, but I feel this one is the most poignant (or ridiculous if you wish).


How come I naturally take notice of the most random and obscure details and retain them without even consciously trying? And how am I able to see in detail and rotate three-dimentional images in my mind after only a glance?

Why do I willingly submit myself to authority?

How am I able to so easily identify the emotions of even complete strangers?

Why do I feel a need to get in shape, when there is no logical reason for me to do so?

How come I am a very peaceful, sensitive, virtuous, and emotional person, yet I can disconnect myself from my emotions, beliefs, and even values without even thinking about it? And how can I be such a person yet have a strange "obsession" with Assassins (most particularly non-modern).

Who knows? I feel only genetic memory can explain away such contradictions.

For that's what I am. A contradiction.
