~Study time~
Apperantly my step-father thinks i don't study enough.
(and he tells me now instead of b4 midterms)
He thinks this because i got the game Borderlands and i played it 4 like 5 hours today.
So i say to him "most of my stuff is online, and i use my computer to study", and he says Well you play video games ALL DAY every day. And i just laughed, was like "i haven't played my xbox at all b4 two weeks ago, and maybe 1-2 hours a day at that." So i ask him what he meant and he says "i can always here that game's gunfire every day, all the time". Again i haven't played my xbox since 2 weeks, and i still studied. He's one of those guys we all would recognize as a "nerd" who spends less time on his life, and more time on his brain. Except he feels strongly that everyone is lazy because they enjoy themselves.
-Subject brought up cus i'm getting C's. Well honestly i could do better, but my bad habit is, if it doesn't apply to my life in any way, don't need to have that skill-set. I mean trivial knowledge is ok 4 me, but learning why a line on a graph goes 5 different ways, not needed. Basically to me algebra is like D&D, sure all the things apply to the game, but what use are they in real life? And when will i ever play D&D?
