    I just want to sleep now, but I really can't, not for another two weeks.

    A nation of immigrants
    Alright, so if you take any type of Canadian history class, or social studies class, or any class that gets regarded as being an arts course then I'm sure you've heard this term before, and even if you don't have one of those classes I'm still sure you've heard that term.
    And to be honest this term pisses me off to no end, as it seems just be another example of systemic racism, now I'm aware that it's not as bad as say when if you were a Jew you couldn't hold office in Quebec, nor am I trying to make light of those times. That said this saying has lead to many people asserting that the only "true" Canadians are aboriginals, now lets take a little trip down through the hallowed halls of history and just mention a few other times that there was only a small group of true people, recently there were the Hutu in Rwanda around '94 or so, the good old capitalists in the west during the cold war, the Aryans in places like Germany and Poland in the 30s and 40s. This list goes on for a while, and though I realize that they (currently) are not in a position to try and destroy the vast majority of this country.
    Now, I would have no problem with being call an immigrant if it weren't for one aspects about them, and that is what is considered to be "home." For many of them it seems to be country X (I recall now an instance in the 90s when a Serb Canadian took a Canadian UN observer hostage and chained him to a pole in an area that seemed likely to be targeted for NATO bombing [while I know that not all new immigrants are like this, as I have learned, it only takes one to screw it up for everyone]), while for me, home is Canada, I've no family connection to another country that was in existence before I was born (my aunt lives and works in the US now) on the 2004 census my ethnicity that I placed down was Canadian, not English, French, German nor the hand full of other things I could have placed (for the record 6,748,135 people said ethnic Canadian with nothing else, and another 4,934,545 said Canadian with at least one other) Now I find this interesting as it means that about 20% of Canadians don't consider themselves to be immigrants at all, this isn't something you could tell from the way things are taught in classes around this country (or at least throughout Ontario.)
    Really though this idea of a nation of immigrants is a slippery slope, as such thinking has been used in the past to remove people's rights, how big of a jump is it to go from saying the only "true" Canadians are the First Nations to saying that only Europeans who first colonized Canada, along with the Métis are the only "true" Canadians?
    In the end the worse part about this is that this sentiment seems to be the main retardation in the growth of any Canadian identity, when was the last time you hear that the only true Americans were the natives down there? If it's more often then never I'm going to want to see some type of proof. In the end immigrants have no grand culture to call their own, and yet their is a Canadiana, and I would submit that fact alone means that not all non-First Nations immigrants and that they are in fact truly part of Canada, knowing it as their only true home.

    An Open Letter
    Dear Mr/s Game Designer/Programmer:

    Now I'm sure you're busy making the next best selling video game, but over time I've noticed a few things about those various video games that I have bought (actually I believe I've only licenced it off of you, but that's something I do not wish to talk about right now) and alas none of these things have cast you in a positive light.

    First I'd like to make a request of you, please if you're going to start randomly remapping my mouse let me change it back to the way I had it set up, I know I'm not in the majority, but even the makers of windows have realized that there are people who are left handed hand use their mouse the reverse of the norm and I'm willing to accept that, but please let me have my right click work the way I want it to, not the way you have arbitrarily decided, if you can do that, it would be grand, thanks.

    The other aspects I've been noticing have been lagging behind in your "fine" products is the fact that in a number of them it almost seems that a retarded parrot wrote the story of the game, this is doubly true if the game wasn't written in English to begin with, this has the effect of doing things with series such as it needing three different games to finish one story arc to say the least this is a problem, when I "bought" the game from you for $60 I was expecting a fully developed story, not part of one, where it almost seems that your author had fallen asleep part way through. This brings me to the next point, the "authors" you have working for you, what the hell is wrong with them, video games should be able to tell a story, and other then the Final Fantasy series, for the most part at least, none of them seem like a professional writer even saw the script, rather one of your mail boys just pissed on a piece of paper, or perhaps it was that parrot that likes translating stuff, stupid parrot.

    Please while I love some aspects of your games, treat them like the business they are, and make something where all aspects of it are quality, not some summer project between elementary school and high school. Thanks for, what I'm sure is already impending, the cooking of that damned parrot, and the heiring of some real writing staff, and not fucking around with my mouse.

    Tech
    Alright, for the last little bit, I've been thinking about technology and education, and really just how poorly it's been done. Now, before I start on another tyride, about things that pisses me off, I'm going to start with the good things about the subject.

    Back four year now I guess (shit I'm old!) when I was in High school, I was able to get a digital projector for any presentation that I needed, which was great (so long as the teacher didn't break the bloody thing!) Now in college I'm still able to get a projector, and I don't even need a teacher to sign for it, but I can also get a laptop (that isn't a piece of crap) to get the projector to work with, which is truly amazing, as in high school the only laptop that I had access to could barely render a video when it was only an eight of the screen (and the main focus on the project is making a video that really hurts your mark, and it sucks so much (for the record on that particular project I got a mercy mark of 50%)T.T) So on the good side the schools have seemed to realise that this whole internet thing isn't just some fad, however that said they seem to think that the apple 2 I was using in second grade is still a good machine, though at this point I wonder if they're still telling kids that Pluto is a planet?

    These good things said, I feel that for every one of these small steps forward they take five large steps back. What I mean by that is that in places like your school you have a computer with "Internet" but it's not real internet, in that it's a pain to get from one site to another, images are present which means faster connections are needed, but of course just like that Apple 2 a blazing fast 100bps (that's bits not bytes) is a good speed to be getting from page to page. (if I recall correctly each character in this is 8 bits, that would mean this is 54,792 bits long) The second problem is with the access to websites, as the schools have made one assumption, students are the criminals in this story, they're only going to do bad things with the internet unless it's been so cut down that they can't do such evil things with it, like look at porn or play them "vidgy" games, now I can think of another place that treats the internet the same way, that place is of course China (yes I'm going for the communists) and to say the least about China they were right their people are criminals in that they are breaking the rules and looking up porn (apparently a lot of it... according to the CBC) but if you didn't make it against the rules would so many of them be looking it up? Well to say the least that's an unfair question, there would be more stupid users looking it up, but the number of smart users that would be looking it up would be down, simply because it's easy to get so there's no fun in finding it. So at the end of the day our high schools at least (I haven't been looking up porn so I haven't seen any blocks on loyalist computers... though now I'm curious god damn it!) are acting more like mini-communist nations rather then the centres for learning that they are, or at least should be.

    Really though even with what I've already said there are only about two problems with the current education system (perhaps there are three...) the first one is the adherence to the archaic and idiotic saying of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" now I would say that the use of the word "ain't" should be a sign to disregard this saying as it stinks of xenophobia and regressionism. Now don't get me wrong if we were the ainchent Greeks and still believed that all knowledge that can be known was once known by someone else then we would never need better computers as they would have already been maxed out in the way of their capacity, but alas we aren't the Greek, so no creepy boy love, and no slaves for us. Now it's xenophobic as it quite blatantly says that even if there is a better way to do something that you shouldn't do it as you already have something, so I guess we need to start making technology that will break any old tech that it comes into contact with (kinda like that Funzo doll from The Simpsons.) The second problem with the current education system is that they still seem convinced that this whole internet thing is just some fad that has seven more years tops. With this resistance to new tech has caused a huge rift between the current students (and even students in the 90s) that is far larger then any that have come before, and while the rift between people who are currently in college and university are smaller then the one between the teachers of those young ones and the students, for the most part the only new teachers that are going to be coming out for years are still teaching a way that was considered up to date in the 19th century, some 200 years ago now. The third thing which I'm not sure if it's really something that belongs here, is the way information is organized, as with older people information has to fallow a very logical pattern, where as for young people the idea of having to jump through a dozen hoops to get to the next part of the information, where finding the information seems more like some evil game of 20 questions, my thought falls onto a time where I was reading about H.P. Lovecraft and managed to go from him to deep sea imaging, now Lovecraft was a horror writer not a scientist, but with the old way of organizing information I would never be able to make that leep from Lovecraft to one of his creations to such a subject, but this is the way countless children are now wired to think, but teachers simply want to drone out of a book at infinitum.

    At the end of the day it seems like there are two type of people guiding the development of tech in the classroom, the first type are the well meaners, these people really want to do the right thing but they just don't know enough about tech to do anything with it and can end up harming the students at the end of the day, by doing thing that will harm the students at the end of the day, the other group are the profiteers, this group are simply there to line their pockets with cash, while some may know about the tech they're selling, many are simply going to lie to other people telling them things like that their computer will never be need to be replaced, which is a total crock, parts of it will start to need replacement after only a year, though it can still be made to work, it will often be crippling some part of your computing power.

    If we're lucky the people of our generation who are starting to enter places of people will be smart enough to fix the problem our parents made when it came to technology, as that is our generation's responsibility to fix, as our parents I'm sure had problems to fix that our grandparents made and so on, back until the first man did something stupid. (crap that was long!)

    8:22 pm
    I'm thinking now that the diatrabe that I gave yesterday should have been put off to instead let you take in a story of my day yesterday. Don't worry people it's short, so there I am sitting in student success, a class I'm trying to stay ambivilant about so I can push myself to get a high mark in it, and they're talking about people's personality quarks, and we hear some of the standard ones, about how they're anal or lazy or what ever, but then one girl says that she can't take orders from men, now that one catches me a little off guard, but I'll play along and hear what she has to say, as I generally don't like pulling out the sexism card all that readily. From what I was able to pick out from her roundabout diatrabe she just dosen't take men seriously and seems to have come to the conclusion that they are all made inferiour to herself and other women, with seemingly no exception. But fine, people are smart right? They'll see this for what it is, and even if they don't the prof will right? Well... no they won't, I forgot that in a normal place I'm a minority, where only 49% of the population are male, and in this class a mear five out of thirty five people were male, meaning a seventh the classes population. By the time I had actually realised what was happening to it's full extent, it was to late, the slings were being thrown at full tilt, there was no way I could defend my gendre from what I can only call an ether wind that was blowing through the class. But in the end I guess it's good to see that sexism is still charished in our classrooms, even if he's changed sides, and I'm sure his other friends are there as well, racism hiding behind calls for reparations. So in the end I'd have to say it's true what they say "Good men don't want the vote" pft.

    Tombs of my life
    Now, I've been thinking alot, and this normally leads to bad things happening, emo posts and the whole lot, but anyways, as I said I've been thinking and this time my mind has fallen onto the future, more exactly to around may or june, when I move back home and leave belleville forever, with no intent of coming back. Now what of the people I know around here? This has become a bit of a stumbling point, with most of them they are all as busy as I am, it feels like I'm always at work or school and if not one of those I'm sleeping or doing stuff for them, and it seems that they are the same way, and this causes me some trouble because I know I'm not always busy, though it may feel like it, and they aren't always busy even if it feels like it for them, but because of this I find myself unable to feel any type of anger towards them as I know what it's like to be busy, hell there have been times where I've been busy and people have decided that's a good time to herras me. So the fact that they're busy when I'm not isn't something I can hold against them, it's going to happen, most of the people I know around here aren't even in the same program as I am any more so the likely hood of having the same "free time" as them is unlikely at best. Though this line of thought brings me back to my original place, and in an odd way at that, in the past most people who I've severed connections with I've gennerally been hurt by, or offended by, but these people have done nothing to garner my ire. So what happens come June? even the last chance to hang out of anime north will be done by that date, some will have moved to the states, some to other provences, some will likely stay in or around bellevagus, but with right now us all being in the same general area it seems like nothing is happening ever, when I ever try to get something to happen alot of the time (though not all of the time, as that movie night three or so weeks ago was fun) is meet with stiff resistence either from people simply being to busy to do anything, or from people who are being so appathetic that I'm surprised they've managed to get to class on any sort of regular basis.
    In the end perhaps I'm wrong and just being stupid, or maybe I'll see that once I've closed this tomb of my live I'll see that I've made atleast afew friends that will appear in different tombs of my life, though there's still a part of me that says the ties that I have with these people are made of only afew strands of weak thread. Bah, I dont have time for this self mopping crap I have a paper to write...

    Fear
    Alright a little while ago I asked in my msn tag why the states are so afriad of Cuba, and I think I've managed to figure it out, and this is after talking with one of my American friends what they thought (which was that she thought they weren't afriad of Cuba but I'll come back to that) and considered everything that I've seen. The only conclusion that I come up with is that they aren't afraid of Cuba, but rather that they're just afraid, and their on a constant search for something new (or rather in addition too) to be afraid of. Now I'm not just saying this because thier fear of Cuba seems to be rather baseless (even more so when compared to a country like China) but one example is the the US is afraid of Canada over a Myth but I'm sure I'd hear someone saying that Canadians would be just as fearful, but that nothing happens here, but I have a big problem with that bloody idea. I'm sure I could find someone who would tell me it's because Canada doesn't have the CIA or some other group telling us about how we're all doomed, and maybe I'll laugh at them. Or perhaps because Canada has never come been attacked on it's homeland since leaving Britian by another state. Could it be as some would contest that Canada doesn't have it's own warrior traditions though I have often heard the claim that Canada hides behind strong nations so they can only do the easy jobs. Though at the end of this I'm sill left with the question of why are they all so afriad of other people? Hmmm, perhaps it has something to do with their school system, tendency towards revisionist history and geocentric leanings. Any thoughts from the wild blue yonders out there?

    Alright well I've been wanting to write more, I just haven't seemed to have it in me for some reason. So well the fact that I'm posting is nice to see happen. So well yea, I managed to get up to the downtown in bellvagus (no car was around) though this ended up with me spending almost $150 so I'm feeling alittle remorse over that, though that's three anime boxsets and two dvds, some are good, some aren't too bad I didn't know which ones were bad before hand... ah well the words seem to be flowing from my hands again, which is nice. Ah well I'm going to try saying something cohearent.

    Well I'm posting again, and generally feeling like crap yet again. And honestly I've been trying to make myself feel better with various means, and I've found that I rather detest a number of them, one of the most common ones is to go "Now someone is place XYZ has it so bad compared to me" but when I actually think about that I actually get mad at the people who are spouting that shit, I mean really the differences between me and them are just to great to really compare, they're in a place where people dream about living through the next day, and yes that does suck for them, here we have to become "productive" members of society, and really that's just one difference between the two. Honestly though I do try to be happy for my friends, I mean for example I have two friends who are at this point just waiting for their boyfriends to ask them to marry them, and that's great for them, but from where I stand I can't help but feel abit greedy at this point, while I dont want a relationship to magically appear at that level, though I do like a girl at the moment, but really she'd sooner have nothing to do with me, so really I go out of my way and constently feel like I'm making a fool out of myself and when ever I try to be serious I just get insulted either by her or others for it. So really Ive got no clue where the hell to go, which is better? To be insulted for being serious or to be ignored while acting like a goof, any thoughts on which is better? Though this reminds me of something that's been bugging me for a while when I've mentioned not having a girlfriend to any guy I know with one I'll get one of two stock responces, the first is "yea having a girlfriend is great" and that responce bums me out a bit but not to much the other one that I've gotten is "nah dude you dont want one, it's such a hassel" and when someone says that I know two things, one is that they're current girlfriend isn't going to be with them for long, and it's going to take everything I have not to laugh at them after they've been dumped cause in my mind they bloody well deserve it. So well yea, things are sucky with me, at the moment, I'm really trying to find a bright side to everything, though it's hard to keep finding one when it feels like by the end of every second month I'm back to where I started, really cheering myself up is getting harder and harder when I'm just going to end back up at the begining all over again, and have to put up with the same crap again... perhaps I should get a labotimy, I'm sure I'd be happy then, or rather I wouldnt be unhappy.

    3:28 am
    Well the school year is over, and in my version of the world that means things should be looking up. But really things aren't looking up, while I don't want this to become an emo journal, I do need a vent, as over the last year the person who I would normaly vent to has since gotten a boyfriend, and dont get me wrong, I'm really happy for her, but at the same time I've lost a confidont, really my ownly confidont, and that's a hard thing to deal with.

    So yea as I've already said the school year has ended already, but untill I get my comm II marks back I'm going to be nervious as anything and stressed, even if I knew the lowest mark I could get was say a perfect I would still be worried about it, as it's my last required class that I don't know how I did in it.

    Moving on from that, as some of you know I was looking for a new place to live next year, in doing a shuffel of where people are living, and lets look at what happened with that shall we? So here I am today, after having been looking for ads of places fairly agressively for the last while, and on my end basicly it's been a big faliure, the few places that I did call (I wasn't trying many of the two room places) I got mostly the same answers from them, either a No, or we've already had it filled, so while this sucks it's going along, the more places we tried the better odds we had of finding a good one, but then today one of the two other people decides they're mad at me and the other person, so I tried talking to them, and really this got me nowhere besides on the fast road to being blocked for afew hours and a grand amount of cursing thrown my way. Really what the argument boiled down to was, I wasn't giving them information that they felt they needed, the different places that had turned me down, though at the same time, they'd managed to get two showings which I had no idea about, so instead of going to them, they canceled the showings and then tried to guilt me with the fact that they apparently needed to cancel them, which irked me to no end. So in the end of this house hunt it seems like I'm staying put in the appartment I already have, with it's being out of town still.

    And lastly Tori up and died on me today, which really was just a briliant cap to the day. I've been aware that he hasnt been doing to well for the last little while as he hadn't been multing properly, and he had seemed rather lethargic. So yea now I have this nice big terarium and no lizard at the moment, just the briliant cap to a briliant day.

    So yea, I'm sorry for unloading all of this tripe here, but if I didn't do it here I'd probably find my sell in a psychiatrists office or perhaps somewhere else worse.

    Alright; Ive been meaning to post again and first I want to talk about my last post or two. Really I was just annoyed with the fact that the plans I had made with the person who was atleast in my mind was the person who had the final say in the matter, only to have a week or so later be informed that some faceless administration had vettoed the course entierly, which to say the lease sucked, massively.
    Alright so onto newer stuffs, I'm finishing up my year at loyalist (only one year left!) It seems like I'm going to be in bellvagues for most of the summer, with random spats where I'm in newmie. Well I have some final stuff to work on.

    GAS
    Alright; it's been a little while since I've done an update; and well I might as well talk about all the stuff that's going on and how simply "great" it's all been so were to start, well firstly as many of you now know I've switched to general arts and science from animation, which has hurt my group members both in that they're down someone who can do his work as well as the fact that it was something that I had been contemplating for a long time but hadn't really talked to anyone about, but in the end I came to the conclusion that doing GAS would be better for me in the end; so I went and switched; under the impression that i would be able to change into the university preparation program in my second year of it; and get a two year GAS diploma and and better standing with university but last Thursday there I am sitting in class minding my own business just sitting there taking my notes just before class ends and my prof Pam Fairbank tells me and one or two other people to stay after class as she needs to talk to us; so I wait around for ten minutes as people clear out; so she then drops a bomb shell on us that loyalist isn't going to be offering the university prep next semester even though we've gotten more qualified applicants this year then in the last four years. so now i get to take classes that there's no way in hell i can get any sort of transfer credits for, so this is just fucking great; let's look over January again; Ive pissed off people who Ive considered friends and for a program that isn't even running anymore! so why the fuck did I even bother, what was it all for? can anyone tell me that?

    alright; well as some of you know Ive changed my program at loyalist, so Ive gone from animation (what most everyone is taking there that I know currently) to General arts and science (or GAS) also the same program that Tracy was taking here at loyalist; and this includes my application to do the second year university prep course; which means I need to keep at least a decent mark of 72% (i think) granted that shouldn't be hard as long as I don't have some huge moral lose (In other words as long as I don't get all mopey and unable to focus) a mark like that should be nothing hard. Though on the down side it doesn't look like I'll be getting to have a summer break this year; but oh well. though my conversation with Pam Fairbank (who got me registered) was kinda weird
    Me: Hi I'm Alex Brown
    Pam: Oh you're Tracy's friend
    He uh; yea I am

    I probably sounded worse then that; but still. And for the record having to wait around for three hours before hand was hell. and technically I was spoce to have a placement this semester in this new course as well; but it doesnt look like it, so in the summer is probably when it'll happen. ah well it still looks fun; also if you want a real caffeine kick have a tylonel it rivals a cup of coffee... which is sad.

    Out on your back side
    Alright; Im not going to go on about how shitty Ive been feeling; or what Im doing with school; instead Im just going to mull over this line that I heard in what's whidely labeled as a "child's" story; this is anne of green gables (also soon to be the worlds longest running musical, but that's not the point) Now that's one of the many types of lines that can be found in both the book and some of the productions of it (this one is from the 1985 video of it i think) now when I first heard this one it was all alright fine nothing wrong with it; but then I started thinking about it, and the "back side" part of it now thats started getting to me, as what this single line from a "children's story" actually means, I dont mean to destroy but when it was being writen that was a very real way someone of anne's station could expect to keep themselves alive. Still I like Anne of green gable for some reason, if you havent read it you should; and if you have you should make sure it wasnt annotated.

    Noël
    Alright so it's noël again; which is rather fun, though it's also weird for a number of reasons the first one being that Im in ottawa this year which is weird as Ive never been in ottawa on christmas day; the second part is this whole "greenchristmas" thing that most of the contenent seems to be trying out; and I really dont like it; I want that crunch under foot.

    Though some cool things have happened today; the first one was that being in ottawa I got to see family I dont normally see, to be exact my uncle bob and his wife judey and two of my three older cousins (on my dads side); maradith and jen, as well as jen's boyfriend who I've been hearing of for quite some time; though the sad thing is that Im betting someone who's reading this has known about him longer; or rather his band (arcade fire) where he's the drumer for, the weird thing about him is that I really want to dye his hair a really vibrent red, and give him a pot of gold... and then try to chase him down with his gold (he looks so much like a lepricon!)

    Well I should go as Im getting rather tired at the moment. (also for all of you who are taking a look at this before midnight you dont see this; it doesnt exist yet; just look at the time index!)

    "Higher education officials say racial preferences are necessary to promote diversity."

    The hell?
    Well it's ash's party tonight, which despite the bitching of several other people it sounds like it will be fun. Though I don't really have much of a get up for it (it's has somewhat a murder mystery thing about it) as my character kinda sounds like a disenfranchised me after I had made something of myself and then had it all slip away.

    On other news, though I'm sure I'll be yelled at by people, Ive been thinking a lot about what the hell I'm doing in the program that I'm currently in and where I want to go with my life, and ever time I think about it I come up with the same answer, I don't know what the hell I'm doing here if anything I should have come here and just done the same course as Tracy last year.

    But its time for me to run

    alright; well there are some things in my life that I thought I'd never do, one of those things is write a chick flick, and well today I started work on one, all be it it's only going to be 25 minutes; but the point remains the same, I'M WRITING A CHICK FLICK!!! it has an 8 part cast, using the different rules of the chick flick that me (and aric) could remember, so not all that much (havent seen that much molly ringwall, and she's all I know about chick flicks) so it's going to be a short chick flick only going to run about 25 minutes in lenght; in other words meaning it's only going to be a 25 page script that I need to write out (god help me!) the only annoying this about it is that we havent actually told most of our cast, meaning we havent told six of the eight actors that they're in this movie, which could lead to a rearanging of characters in the movie, which would suck a lot. But so far we have Erik, Sarah, and Kyle as characters in the movie so apparently I lied; I havent told five people that they're in it; but that's all the same. Well I should start writing the script now.... or go to sleep, Im really not sure which.

    Current Mood: tired

    To aric:
    Ooga booga

    To everyone else:
    Hmm; you know I did have stuff to say here that I was wanting to say;but at this point Ive rather forgoten what they were; so instead you're all getting treated to my ramblins; first things, is I dont believe that I've mentioned Tori on here before, and that seems rather shallow of me, so well for those of you who dont know who Tori is, that's not my girlfriend's name, as Ive had about ten people already jump to the conclusion of. No Tori is my lepard gecko, who's very with his(her?) yellow spots and green around his eyes.

    Programing is rather a snooze to be sleeping through; Im finding it increadably hard to stay focused (but I generally finish my assignment before it's technically asigned, so it's all good at precent)

    Current Mood: uncomfortable
    Current Music: less than three
