Mantra for the World

"Hey Phil, wazzup?"

"I have to do lots of homework."

"But, Phil, you wanna get some coffee?"

"I have to do lots of homework."

"Hey man, how's it going - you should watch that speech on Utoob; Obama!"

"I have to do lots of homework."

"Duuuude, you just stepped in moose crap; did you see that?"

"I have to do lots of homework."

"Aliens! Aliens in the sky! What the blazes, and your MOM just hopped in a helicopter man! She's goin' after 'im!!"

"I have to do lots of homework."

"The Human Race just began a worldwide paradigm shift in Universal Rights and Fair Coopertition despite prevailing economic dogma (!); what is your stance on the coming logistical discourse with regard to mass disarmament, and how do you plan to contribute to your community in spreading this message of Righteous Civic Participation?"

"I have to do lots of homework."

Hyperbole aside, I've got some $#!^ I gotta get done.

Brevity aside, things are warming up and some wacky forecaster even said we might get some RAIN this weekend - can you believe that? Weather won't really make too much difference in school though, unless I walk there. All my classes are in one building, except for one - probability. What are the odds of that? I've assailed myself with a torrential downpour of day-at-a-time kinds of activities. Though, on a more positive note, I see at least two or three people at school every day that I know. How cozy. Heck with the pretty snow and the orange sidewalk lamps sparking up the snow flakes themselves, school doesn't seem too shabby in the first week. I wonder how long that will last.
