Woke up way too early today. Or just got to bed too late again last night? What's the difference?

H-sand & kind-of-an-exam-session (approx. 2 hours long, 1st out of 3) in approx. 15 minutes. Before then finishing tea, brushing teeth, listening to some strange music through Spotify & talking with some ppl on the other side of the planet.

Life!

3am-ish

It is in the middle of the night and I am not sleeping. Why is that? I wonder, I wonder. I can hear the night traffic now, it is a lot less than during the day. Almost silent outside. In about two hours it will be all different as the morning rush starts. I can hear two birds singing outside of the window. The sun is pretty much up, it is full daylight outside.

I am not easily scared, been through way too much in life for that. But every now and then there is something/someone that/who gets me to seriously have a look at the world around me asking what we think that we are doing in/with it. Today this happened, again.

Like a leaf in the wind.

san vs. "them"

Why is it so that some people think that just since you study something as theoretical and abstract as some random odd physics, then you know absolutely nothing about anything else in the world? It's as if they think that you never ever set your foot out on the streets, that you never ever face the real world, that you live your own life in some kind of parallel universe and never experience anything else.

Cooome ooooon. Stop this madness, take a more objective look around yourself.

san vs. the world

I ran into a "funny" guy the other day. It was way way icy so I took the bus, which I seldom do. The bus was really crowded, i.e. some random people were to end up standing.

This guy and his pregnant girlfriend, both of them being something like 20-22 years old, get on the bus (bus still hasn't left the main bus station). The guy sits down on the opposite side of the aisle from where I was sitting, thereby taking the last free seat in the bus. Once sitting down he turns to me and says:

"hey my girlfriend is pregnant, why don't you give her your seat?"

This little action made me think "huh?!? wh-what?" and it ended with me saying something in line with:

"get your own ass up and let her take your seat instead"

Jeeez where is this world going? The guy set himself down, leaving his own pregnant girlfriend standing!?! After him saying what he did - no way in hell that I would give her my seat. If he hadn't said it I probably would have offered her my seat, considering her condition and all (especially since I doubt that anyone else sitting nearby would have done so).
