Let’s see. Since the last one I’ve played Call of Duty 2, World at War, and Modern Warefare. All of them were fine. Not particularly special but entertaining. Besides that not much else huh. I’ve just been feeling less desire to try to complete things. Kinda feel like I’ve reached a point where consuming most media just feels a little redundant. Kinda just been whittling down the time reading news, slowly working on tefl course, duolingo, posting on clover forum, going on walks, and video games.

So I decided to watch these movies mostly purely out of curiosity. If you follow politics or any sort of Chinese news then you’ve probably heard of “wolf warrior diplomacy”. Which I’m not quite sure whether that originated in Chinese media or American media, but my guess would be the latter. I went into it kind of expecting and kind of wanting a jingoistic sort of movie. But what I got wasn’t really that.

As the sun set Sulla set out and the adventurers from earlier began to trickle out. Five came on horseback and the others were to ride in the wagon. “So, where exactly is this den of banditry.” Sulla stretched his whiskers for a few seconds and responded, “You know the reports of recent lootings of houses?” “I’m aware. That is why the baron is so pissed and is handing out such high rewards for the death or capture of thieves.

I just got physically threatened on Christmas Eve by my brother. It’s one thing for my parents to take his side, but it’s a whole nother thing to justify threats. I’m debating on whether I should do this next year. Next year I will probably be living independently of my parents. I’ll still be dependent on them, but I probably won’t be living in the same house as them come next year.

In book 2 and in chapter 3 of the Analects, it is recorded that Confucius said the following: “If you try to guide the common people with coercive regulations and keep them in line with punishments, the common people will become evasive and will have no sense of shame. If, however, you guide them with Virtue, and keep them in line by means of ritual, the people will have a sense of shame and will rectify themselves.

The prompt that was given by the professor is the following: Drawing on what you’ve read in Off the Edge, the other assigned readings and discussions, and your own research, explore whether social media is harming our ability to think critically. There are many problem with responding to this. The two main problems with this prompt are that it fails to define exactly what social media is, as well in making clear whether this “our” is referring to the impact of social media on a personal or societal level.

I am now free of the JLPT and the ACT. I would like to say I’m satisfied with what I achieved. It hasn’t been the most eventful semester. I feel like I really need a change of pace. That’s one of the reasons why I want to go to Japan. It’s not just for academics, but to distract myself. In about a month-and-a-half from now I’ll submit my application to the other three schools that I’m applying.

Sulla prowled the streets to find work. Naturally, he walked up to the message board near the closest pub. “Kill elf bandits. Only good bandit is a dead bandit. GENEROUS REWARD if dead, even more if alive.” Sulla, his interest peaked, walked in to the pub to discuss this with the innkeeper. “Say, who posted the bulletin about the bandits?” “That, sir, was the local lord of these lands. Bandits have been a nuisance they have.

I was thinking about the real reason why many people fall away from churches and Christianity. I honestly don’t think it has much to do with the truth about reality or anything like that. I don’t think it really has much to do with verses which they object to in the Bible. No, I think the leading one is really sexual desire and how Christian marriages are supposed to work. I think no matter how you read it, you’re really not supposed to masturbate or have sex outside of marriage.
