Suffering from Apathy

Yep.. finally all the excitement has worn itself out.. I had just enough to carry me through the holiday season, and now its over. I was recently told that I work too hard, and play too little. I think I agree. I think I am heading down the crashing phase. Need a vacation..

School started on Monday. Remember that team building event at the ROM? Well apparently they got too many complaints from the class of 2010. It was to be held on a Sat morning. So, they took our complaints into consideration and made us do a personality test and get to know our teams. For the record: I did not complain. I would have liked the scavenger hunt at the ROM. I went out on Monday night as I hadn’t seen my classmates for a while. Going out on a Monday night was a very bad choice. Thursday nights are better.

We started Foundations of Integrative Thinking.. They are trying to rewire our brain to think about what other people are thinking. hmmm.

We did have to read an interesting article called ‘The Odds of That’. The article quoted the famous Casablanca line ‘of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the worlds....’ Apparently Bogart was clueless. The chance of Bergman walking into his bar was actually very likely. The article says that everything that happens in our lives are random events. We think occurrences and events mean something because of our personal bias. The more personal it is, the more ‘meaning’ we assign it. There is no master plan. There are only coincidences. Nothing is fate, or destiny. It’s just a fluke. Great! So the crazy living in my building is random….. :) Already my thinking is changing..

Off to Business Law.. sounds boring, but the prof is supposed to be interesting.. We had to read an article about a guy who sues a water company because he found a fly in it. Apparently he won, and then lost in the appeals..Should make for an interesting discussion.
