WAP, Vol. 105
Weekly Asian Post, Vol. 105
So I woke up to some very peculiar thoughts this morning, which I would love to share with you right now. What if, right now, you're living in a coma-induced world? For instance, what if you went to sleep sometime in the summer before 9th grade and have been actually sleeping since, and your "current" world is all within your coma? There was a TV show based on this back in the day, the name of which leaves me. I keep wondering: what if I get to my 21st birthday, fall asleep that night, and wake up on the day before my first day of 9th grade? Suppose that I was only in a coma for a week in "real time". Would I retain all of this knowledge I've gained over the past 7 or 8 years? If I did, it'd be an entirely different world when I got up. It'd be wonderful to know that I could avoid making mistakes I made previously in my "dream world", but at the same time, I'd have such high expectations of myself, since I'd be essentially a high school freshman with the maturity of a college junior. Ponder that one for a bit.
My life is pretty standard these days. Sleep, work, video games, hanging out, eating. I don't do much else. All the same, this is sort of the thing I should've expected coming into this semester. I've gotta just go out and find things on my own. One of these things is a Spring Break trip next week that I'm very excited about. A week in South Carolina with 20 or so friends from Chi Alpha. It should be excellent.
I love having my Xbox 360 back.
Have a good week everyone! Oh, and a good next week too, as I won't be able to write, but I'll make sure I throw in an entry afterwards that fills in as Vol. 106 about the trip!
