Maturity and Evidence

The personal Bias, the self centered idea that the universe is "designed" is disgusting for me. As I find narcissistic, self serving nature that reached boundaries of delusion and becomes a barrier for a more long range self interest (altruism).

Interestingly, I'm able to make more and more accurate and exacting observation of my own behavior because I write my thoughts down and I am able to note the frequency of my own irrationalities.

I guess thats why in Professor Hinshaws's lecture developing a personal narrative is not only essential for growth, but also for humanization. I guess I have to give my mother some credit for encouraging me to write, when I do realize now that I did write crap... but the perceived truth she believed was important in giving me intermediary goals to draw me out and try some more.

I think when my kid is born, I'll be just as encouraging but I would have the ability, which many people past their 20s learn (according to the lecture) to frame things more positively. Age makes us weaker, but we grow realistic about our abilities at the same time we learn to frame facts/truths positively. An interesting coping mechanism born out of mortality and a fully matured self control (neurologically speaking).

Its sad to think that kids are basically selfish psychopaths when looked with context less objectivity. I mean, they need to be because they are so fragile at the same time as they grow more independent thats when they are able to place their goals outside themselves... is that Irony? (can't tell anymore).

I had that thought to consider psychopaths subhuman... of course then children fall under that general category according to the cognition lecture... so is a mature adult mind, incapable of empathy and incredibly self centered to the point of delusion and capable of premeditated deviance and atrocities...still human???

the Psychologist and the Criminologists are at opposite ends of this debate and the truth... or what counts for a useful fact that will help will be somewhere in the middle.

Technically I'm done with the project

no charter . after learning what a charter is and because they don't work with a charter I'll never do a project without it. A charter is a written agreement with a project sponsor/employer/ in what outputs to be expected and what points are needed to consider a project done. I've never worked with a character before and was continually frustrated and depressed because of constant revisions and fluctuating tastes and expectations. I'd rather be thought of a total prick than to destroy my life working without a charter. This comes up because, when technically my dad removed me from the website project I'm being asked to arrange it again. This fuels my wishes, not to mention memories of unbearable depressions, to really leave the company I just joined in 2 months. Honestly, I'm here cause my parents want me. They can't make me want this job. I was doing well in the 3d artist track, I was poor but well, less stressed and still hopeful of my future. Personally,

Gurps Mysteries

A really great GM book . If there was Game Mastering for Dummies (not just for DnD or GURPS ), Gurps Mysteries is the next level of Advanced Game Mastering. This is where the players grow up a little, they are not as interested in Hack and Slash anymore and they begin to lean on a more cerebral challenge. One of the best elements of this books is how to communicate clearly to your players through clues and hints in the game. Despite its focus on mystery, this books i great for any intrigue. Eventually mastering these technqies, format, and story telling will allow for games to have a very clear and sophisticated finish. An art onto itself, and not just a game. Of course the most important element is having fun. Fun is when you and the players are on the same page no matter what you throw at them to challenge their characters and give them a chance to shine. Filled with too much information . I'm excited at what I learned about armor smithing in the early Renaissance and late

330mg of Caffeine will do the trick

Ok i got a grande brewed coffee and put 8-10 packets of brown sugar thats about 155 calories. This is twice the amount of Caffeine i get from my 2 shots of espresso in the morning with 4 teaspoons of brown sugar. How do i feel... Better! although my face is reeling from the bitter after taste of the coffee. good coffee is really sour going down and really bitter after. The intense sugar tends to make the sourness taste fruity. Anyway, my is elevated and I'm a bit hyper but i am able to control that better these days. The tons of notebook and the emotional intelligence studies help. Particularly when i've broken down most of my peculiarities and the way I think. Heck, I think i can make an entire wiki based on how I'd react to certain things. It would be very revealing and transparent of me, and of course like the anything so vulnerable subject to abuse when falling in the wrong hands. I have to email, a friend back some airsoft details.
