a damn cool song. first, it is the theme of one of my favouritest serials on tv. then, it was significant in one House episode. plus anything that is almost 30 years old but still sounds fraking good now can only be classified as such.
"We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song
I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again"
speaking of which, things seem to be getting worse. and one would think that being longer in the system equate to better ability to cope. being slammed left right up down centre is not fun at all. and even though i have 3 midterms papers on 3 consecutive days (none studied at this point in time), i have yet to panic. mix of being indifferent, jaded and realising that panic wont do myself any good.
beginning to scare myself. it wasnt all that long ago when certain issues proved to be ethical and moral dilemmas. but now they dont seem to have great impacts on me. and there i have professors being seriously concerned that such things no longer bother my generation. perhaps what parents have been so worried about is coming true. to what extent am i prepared to go to advance my goals? to how far am i willing to compromise trust and integrity? does winning justify its means? should i do the right thing or the smart thing?
a little misrepresentation wont hurt. a little lie wont kill. and all with very valid reasons. i can foresee myself using them as justifications. what a delicate division - marketing and hr. one with loads of fluff, creating perceived starvation and endless wants. another supposed to be concerned with welfare and goodwill. we are eventually expected to be somewhat schizophrenic; to juggle thousands of balls while maintaining ever approachable smiles. both personally and professionally
not willing to suffer fools. not taking bullshit. but still selling my soul. can i handle it?
totally off point: when you pay almost USD60 for shipping, you can actually see how the package travels halfway across the globe to you. super exorbitant but hyper exciting!
