• Update with Bonus Commentary

  Currently Listening Christmas Songs By Anuna see related

  Hey all,

  I've been lousy once again about keeping this 'blog updated.  Mostly that's because I haven't really ahd too much to say.  School has been consuming most of my attention and energy.  While I'm learning a lot in both of my classes, part of what I'm learning is that my brain doesn't operate in the ideal fashion for someone pursuing these hard sciences.  Advanced Human Evolution is going fairly well, but while the professor seems to respect my efforts in the class, and he and I seem to use the same vocabulary, we also often seem to talk past one another and end up in confusion.  Gross Anatomy is not going well, but I still have a chance at pulling off a passing B- if I get a mid-range B on the final exam this up-coming monday.  I feel like I'm learning a lot in Gross, but not quite enough.  It's a class that by its nature emphasizes all the learning approaches at which I am the weakest.

  That's about all I hae to report right now.  In spare moments of flash energy I'm also working on some media projects which are very exciting, so we'll see where those things end up.

  So that's the update.  Here's my bonus commentary.

  There's  a huge flaw in the credit system.  While it may seem reasonable for lenders to give higher interest rates to borrowers with poor credit, it actually doesn't make much sense.  If a borrower has proven themselves to have struggles keeping up with payments in the past, how does it help the lender to demand higher payments?  That's sort of like grocery stores charging higher prices to customers with low incomes.  Weird.
