So...

I have had a hunch my trashy neighbour across the street - ole smoke and drink while weed-whacking with gasoline on my back - would throw her trash in the rented dumpster on the driveway next to her. Just waiting...waiting...waiting... There she goes, around the back of the house with some branches... There goes the stuff, flying into the dumpster... dog watching, not sure if he is supposed to fetch...

So I realised she is the epitome of what bothers me at work... this attitude that "everything is mine, you owe me, I owe you nothing and I will not cooperate, respect, or show any decency because only I matter."

And we had our new president's national call for volunteerism on MLK day again this year and I want to know how many people volunteer or make a decent - not token - donation to help someone, anyone...

:( If only everyone thought in the terms of Kant's Categorical Imperative and had the mindset of "what would happen if everyone did this?" I mean if everyone was selfish 24/7, then it will eventually come to a point where we are unable to benefit ourselves because no one will budge an inch. Yet no one can see this side because they can only see themselves and never look at the big picture--ever.
And for the 'project' it's really up to you Vas! I'll love it no matter what you do, so go crazy because everything in this world can be interpreted and there's always room for change. i miss you and i hope your find some relief in the classroom and by creating your own art :)
