I wonder what the childhoods of various dictators/coup leaders (etc) were like. It would be interesting to do a study on them and the psychological effects of various events, unless it’s already been done of course…in which case I could just look it up.
 People like Kim Jong Il and that Burmese General really puzzle me…I don’t understand how they

They have discussions on socialism/marxism (they refuse to use the word communism) all the time at those cult societies at my uni.

Anywas, Caz if you did psychology or philosophy (or sociology or anthropology or probably even political economy) then you would totally kill it.

Caz, we can all be angry, bitter spinsters with millions of cats... I see myself heading down that path already. At least we will have company?

Also - I refuse on principle to join any clubs at uni. They're all nuts. I was going to join heaps of things, when I was an idealistic high school student, but I feel I can do more - for my own sanity, at least - by keeping well away of the clubs/societies/cults.

I wish I had a million cats.

And I like where this heraphrodite fashion is going. Will there be cat fashion one day?

Please send me your timetable so I know when to callll/drop by!!

Dad said Marx's theory for Communism was based on the society that was used by ants.

Dad said that Marx sorta forgot that ants do not have the level of thinking to put value on something.

David: Cult indeed...anything that hands out pamphlets and holds 'educational'(/brainwashing) stalls is a cult in my books...seriously, the Socialist Stall was the only stall set up on my campus on Open Day...*shakes head*
How is Psychology coming along btw?

Kim: I agree...the only club I would ever join is the Circus Club (where one learns the art of fire juggling).

Sarah: I like Hermaphrodite fashion too...it means I can wear baggy clothes and be emo if I wanted. And yes...one day Sarah--there will be CAT FASHION & fashion for all furry creatures!!! Muhahahahahaha!!!

Tan: Oh wow, there's a bit of trivia for you. Anyway, we step on ants. (Must feed Queen ant...if I am male, I will die this winter)--it's true, that is how an ant would think--now you can't tell me that's no precursor for a political system for humans.

Love to you all.

Psychology is awesome but sadly I finish it in two weeks and it will feel like a wholesome part of my life will be gone, even though it was only there for thirteen weeks.

And on hermaphrodites, there's this board cleaner in one of my lecture rooms. Sex of said cleaner is disputed among us students. Shim (Well, he-she doesn't quite work and neither does she-he) has big hands, a deep voice and a wrinkly old face; but also pink/purple skirt-thing, longish hair and some sort of chest. Hermaphrodites must really be in this year.

How interesting, this cleaner must be the centre of much boredom-induced conversations. I like the fact that you say skirt "thing"--is it not really a skirt? Or do you use 'thing' to further suggest ambiguity in the cleaner's gender? Anyhow, surely this goes to show that hermaphrodites are indeed in this year! Shim's paving the way in the fashion industry!
Anyhow, that's a shame--but at least the time that was spent was spent enjoyably.

It'll keep being a point of conversation because none of us are game enough (or is that rude enough?) to ask shim to clear it up for us. I think shim's a woman but the majority is man, but I think that's because it's less insulting for a woman to be called a man than for a man to be called a woman. (Okay, I think I may have offended some people here...) There's even a tallyboard on one of the tables, with man slightly leading.

Psychology was absolutely worth it. If you happen to have some spare time, have a look at the Stanford Prison Experiment. (It sucks that we can't do stuff like that any more... damn ethics!)
