Well, school has begun. It's really not that bad. I'm taking: Astronomy, Sociology, Law and Morality, and The Psychology of Human Sexuality. I like to call that one psycho sex. Hehe. I'm not sure I understand what is going on in Astronomy. I'm not really a science person, but I need the credit to graduate, eventually. Socioligy is fun, but we have this assignment I'm not sure what to do with. I have to break a social norm, and write a paper on people's reactions. I don't know what norm to break. Oh, we have to do something that doesn't break the law. I was going to write, "...break the law, obviously, lol" However, people don't always realize the obvious. I might decide to wear my underwear outside my clothes, that might make for some interesting reactions, don't ya think? I might decide to be a "close talker" as it is referred to in Seinfeld. I really don't have any other ideas. So if you're reading this, and you have any suggestions, let me know. I could walk around pointing att people, and giggling. It would break a norm, wouldn't it? Afterall, it is considered rude to point. It's just something that one is not supposed to do, right? Well please let me know. Lol.

Hi Mira,
This is Aris.
Why don't you try going more out of your way saying good morning to people you see on the way to school in the morning. In general, I think we tend to focus on our own world, and forget to try and interact with all around.
I see it more in small Towns, where I may be a complete stranger, and the locals are saying hello, good morning, etc. It changes your own perspective considerably.
Other norms to break? Kind of difficult, because it does seem that anything is normal. Unless you are in the mid-west or something.
Hope all is well.
I have to teach Anita about this.
by the way, my first blog response,
ever.
Aris
