SWEEET.. So funny how these things impose upon us over a short period of time seemingly from a larger perspective, but when acctually experienced you feel like it almost hasn't happened anything at all, know what i mean?

Anyhow, got english test full-day tomorrow.. Lajm and hard work but gets me out early ;)

we had a day of splashing water at eachother today, or soaking eachother rather; "we", the third year graduate(?) students who are going to uni or whatever next year, went for all the other students and the teachers! :D
This had been us *granted* without excessive whining because we label ourselfs RUSS this time around: And people know that the RUSS fools around -- they expect this of us anyways. It was fun, especially since the girls somehow managed to put on white clothing.. hmmm

Anyhow, i cba to explain this tradition. Soo now i will rant about..

Cheese.

Cheese is nice and milky; although i can't digest milk i can still eat cheese since it has somehow managed to exclude the lactose from its internal cheesyness.


now to something completly different: Iv'e been wondering about the relationship between punishment and restraint from future actions. How much does society currently "punish" the prisoners for what they have done? I've come to think of it all as probabilities: You have one guy that commits a crime, since this is "done" you have to keep him away from the rest of scociety until the probability for him not commiting the crime again is low enough (in some kind of economical balance proportion). Anyhow; i thought about this when trying to figure out why threats are not part of free speech, and i came to see it as a violation of the laws through time -- it's like you are probable of commiting a crime in the future; why is that any different than the probability that you just commited a crime? Anyhow, if you got my point, what do you think of the punnish/restraint relationship that is currently used? I think "punishment" itself should be avioded, and only the BS i talked about should apply.

I've been thinking today; and now just recently it has come to my attention that the relation between living in the moment and looking at the big picture is like with anything else -- the golden middle path applies. AGAIN!

Also today i read that the brain has evolved the last 700years or so to increase in size. This was presented as a small note in a science magazine, scoffed away as something unimportant. Ofcourse, anyone who saw this and was not previously locked in some form of thinking immideatly saw that this was most likely because of either a or b. A beeing that humans have evolved in the last 700 years, meaning that people not associated with the culture the experiment was on, might not have evolved as much as they did in that period of time, and that they are less intelligent(i think it is proven IQ correlates with brainsize, i say this reluctantly since i've a relatively small head if you want to know). Anyhow, the second possibility, is that the humans that each day grow up now are influenced from birth with various stimulations that increase the power of their brain, as i touched upon in the last paragraph; and ofcourse by this they increase their brain size (an experiment conducted with people learning how to juggle in adult age, increased size of some areas of the brain, and as children have an even more flexible brain i consider this a very likely possibility.)... I don't know, B seems more likely to me, but what do i know. Perhaps more interesting is that it's just shoved away as something unimportant ;)
