havent updated for a while. my week was pretty busy, what with papers and lectures. anyhow, yesterday, i had to attend a lecture by this guest lecture for a class. he's a pretty well known person, with all the right "qualifications" to make him a knowledgeable person on the topic he discussed. it was about terrorism, and when he started talking, it was the first time i've felt angry at a lecture. angry doesnt even begin to describe what i felt when he was talking. the way he talked about muslims and terrorism, it made me want to go up to him and ask him where he gets off talking like that. having numerous degrees and PhDs does not make it alright for you to talk about islam like its your religion. no one knows about something unless they've personally lived it. DONT make assumptions about muslims from a small group. SOD OFF, YOU PRICK! he actually said that muslims shouldnt follow the religion's "laws" if they wanted to live peacefully with other groups! wtf??!! stop making generalizations about people! not every muslim is violent. there are some who dont approve of this violence too, you know. he was such a hypocrite, saying that the US shouldnt act like they are the world's superpower, but he himself is laying down rules for people to follow.

pffffttt. needed to blow off steam. the lecture was so annoying that i forced myself to fall asleep so that i wouldnt have to listen to him. a nap makes the torture go by faster. lets just say i wouldnt dole out cash just to listen to him talk! bastard
