| So, FedEx is pissing me off. It's gotten to the point of where I almost snapped. This Friday morning I had to work my 3 AM to 8 AM FedEx shift. The job is decent - move boxes. Anyway, I'm starting to go crazy because of the people I'm with. All I do is stand there, move boxes from one side of the conveyor belt to the other, and realize how I'm dying one box at a time. If I'm not listening to the conveyor belts, then I'm listening to my co-workers peice together word particles and crap it out through their vocal cords.
I just got in from this night's shift. I was going to take the day off and call in sick or something. I was tired, but I think I was mostly influenced by my hatred of my co-workers' inabilities to form a sentences not containing any of the following words: "beer", "sex", "party", "titty", "ass", "hangover." Asking for a decent, intellegent, original conversation with someone is asking for way too fucking much these days.
You know what I just realized? These people are all younger than me, except for a year or two. I think our class noticed it first: we're the last species of intellegent humans. Looking back on the classes after us: everyone was so weak-willed, inconsiderate, and ignorant. There were a few smart ones left, but after that class they were pretty much wiped out. Include the factor that we went to a very good school - this means my class are pretty much the very last intellegent humans of the species.
Do you even know what is being taught to our children these days in school? It's repetetive garbage. "Memorizze a chronological list of our presidents and recite them back to me in a week." How many times do we need to know who the 19th president was right off the top of our head? What happened to working with practical thought and idea. Why aren't we teaching logic in our classrooms? You know what you pay colleges for?: to let professors tell you what books to buy for class so YOU can read them.
Dord told me this today: a 26 year old woman was making brownies. She needed half-a-cup of water but only had 1/4 cup measuring device. She has a degree, but couldn't make brownies because she "didn't have 1/2 a cup to measure the water with. Weren't you shunned back in the old days for being that fucking stupid? Why do we encourage stupid behavior?
I hope people can start standing up and doing something about this spiral into stupidity. People are injuring our nation as a whole. Our world as well. Corporate Executives are controlling the world you live in - not our government. GM Motors controls what the approprate air toxin levels are - not congress. They own the air you breathe. They buy portions of nature and use it to dump waste into your waters. They emit super concentrated levels of CO2 into the atmosphere and make it hotter and hotter every summer... I hope people can arise and work together to fix this problem, before we start crossing the bridge to extinction.

| It's so sad that I don't hate the world to the extent that I should.

| Just watched Aeon Flux for the first time, and damn I loved that movie. It brough up the concept of memory fragments surving in DNA. Is this possible? I think so. Where do "instincts" come from? What gives us memories of a previous life?
If God allegedly made us in his image, then does our DNA contain memories of God? I think that's where being psychic comes from. Psychic's listen to their gut instinct. Could that instict be a memory chain back to a state of god-hood?
This is kinda the abridged thought process - but I don't feel like explaining it more, and it's more fun if you figure it out for yourself.

| Sad, but true. I'm not trying to be pessimistic, just more realistic. Just, sorta, realizing that in my head I have ideals that just don't exist on this plane. According to the Platonic Model of the Cosmos, my goals are on a level called the "Supreme God." It's the highest level, something un-obtainable by man. On that plane, everything "ideal" exists. For example, according to Christians, Jesus was an "ideal" man - he was perfect. Pluto says that at this highest peak of his model, ideal objects, ideal concepts, and ideal ideas beam down into our lower realms - like our mortal realm. Today I realized that all my goals are "ideal" goals - I wouldn't know how to describe them, but I need to learn that they are un-obtainable. I want an ideal house, an idea relationship, and ideal job... but those things have no true definition. Man cannot obtain the types of goals I desired.
So, maybe I should come up with new goals...new desires. But that's really hard, when you realize how shitty this world is. I realize now, that those goals were only my own transmuted view of heaven. It's that everlasting concept of un-imaginable happiness. It's really hard to let go of something like that, and I'm not sure if I can or not. Chances are, I should probably let go of my ideal goals, that way I can have real goals to obtain. Ironically, this is my largest problem with Christians: not changing their lives because they're waiting for an ideal heaven...
