i'm sure there are feelings in here that i want to express ::: taps self ::: but i can't bring them up. i guess the mroe you write the easier it is. and ever since i've lost my computer and internet access, i haven't bee writing poetry, maintaining my blog, or my real journal. so all the forms of writing i do have been forsaken. in fact, i think my only source of writing is my writer's craft and english classes. how sad...

as i was just telling max, i hope it doesn't turn out that in the two months he's here i only see him a handful of times. but he can't really afford to come down from ajax, and i'm busy on a lot of weekends, and december is so close at hand...

mansfield and i went to york university last night for a debate. the topic was "theism vs. atheism, does god exist?" the theist seaker was a physicist and a christian, and the atheist was an older u of t prof with a lot oh philosophy training. it really wasn't that great. they both had weak points, but what bothered me most was the very narrow definition of "god." actually, as we were leaving, i heard one guy making the same comment, how they totally neglected any more easter view of god. i was listening to this kid speak and thinking "yes, my brother! i am among my own people!" even just sitting in the lecture hall, i was amazed that there were enought people interested in religion to FILL A LECTURE HALL! it was just so exciting, and i am really looking forward to university, even if i do study math.

actually, december 5 i have to send in my university applications. and hell, i've still not registered for the SATs! well, i have a long while to do them, so it's not that big a deal...

i won't be going to the karate tournament tomorrow. i'm dissapointed, i was hoping to. but my kata, pinan shodan, is giving me a lot of trouble. the last one i learned, pinan nidan, was fine. i learned it quickley, and preformed it at the spring tournament (got 4th place). but i just can't get my brain wrapped aroung this one. (btw, a "kata" is a patter that we learn, to help pratice our fighting technique).

and, of course, i have to go get ready for salsa now. ::: grumble :: i don't like it. at all. sigh...

vive la revelution!
