It's been an interesting two weeks, to say the least. Here are some random notes:

-The lottery is at a projected $340 million this Tuesday. I thought I was gonna win last Friday after I bought 30 tickets, but somehow I didn't. Hahaha... I've decided I will only buy ONE ticket tonight.

Here's my logic for buying one ticket as opposed to zero tickets: If you buy zero tickets, your chances at winning the lottery is just that...zero. If you buy one ticket, however, your chances increase by infinity (if my math is correct). Of course, your chances of winning the lottery after purchasing one ticket are so slim that you probably will never win in a thousand lifetimes, but man, doesn't increasing your chances by infinity sound awesome?

-All this talk about money has made me conscious of my not having any. It's not just stupid dreams of winning the lottery either. Practically speaking, I'm a poor student who is studying to become a poor public servant; how am I going to provide for myself, my family? Naturally, I'm not one to think about the financial side of anything, but planning for the future seems like the wise thing to do. I have one idea in mind, but whether or not plans come to fruition is still up in the air.

At the same time, I don't want to get caught up in money. I could see myself consumed by greed (if I'm not already), and I don't want to go (or continue) down that path...

-Finally...girls... It seems to me that everyone I meet has this misconception that I've hit the jackpot at UCLA. I'm sorry, but I really don't think that's the case.

Everyone's also telling me to be more proactive... Fine. As soon as I find a nice, attractive, and available yujah, I'll pursue like a lion hunts down its prey. Hahaha... OK, maybe not to that extent...

By the way, some girls are STRANGE...

Wow, I don't like this post...
