Re: PM’s French Re-entry into the Matrix - Phase 1: 500 Hours Extensive Reading

My most important update ever:

I did some walking around lately, ate some food, looked at things with my eyes, brushed my teeth here and there (mainly with live poisonous snakes), pondered my existence, questioned things, received mail, typed some things, paid taxes, paid bills, drove my car, rode my bike, paddled my kayak, listened, watched, read and spoke.

Why do we all think so alike? Clearly we should not. Should we even think so much? Perhaps we don’t think enough.

Back to utilising my VPN...

I wonder why we all think alike. Is it a learned thing? I feel so ordinary. There's nothing wrong in being ordinary - in fact I prize it, because to me it's a sign that I'm doing well, because I'm not noticed, I'm just me, and there's nothing wrong. At least on the surface, and maybe deeper. Hmm.

Do we all think alike? I've literally never met anyone who I felt thought like me... Unless you mean in the senses that make us human.. then I think the answer is genetic hard wiring due to evolution...

We should think more, we don't think enough, but we also don't act enough. There should be a balance between the two and we should do more of both (at least that's how I feel). I'd like both to be part of a "tribe" (Ani's expression), and a bit special. But not too much

What do you mean?! I think heaps better than you do!

"We" means you and some aliens, right?

Dammit, you beat me to it! I was just about to ask PM the same question!

Who is this PM person anyway? I hope he PMs me, I'm trying to build up a fan base of crazy people.

Edit: We I really really really like you heaps an' that PM, like sooooooo much! Are you there PM? PM? Like, message me, dammit. Now! Any time, day or night or evening, morning, when i'm eating food or not eating food, doesn't matter, no bother at all

(They say in the months leading up to a C1 or C2 exam, one goes a little crazy, I don't think it's true though)

I think people think similarly. I'll stop there.

Who said that?

There is a simple way to prevent the preC1/C2 exam craziness: have some worse problems and challenges at the same time

For example, preparation for the microbiology and pathology exams plus some unpleasant depressive symptoms worked just fine. Sure, I was a little crazy during those times but the etiology was different! Don't blame the DALF!
