No, but I think they should've taught her.. But I know, they might've and she just didn't listen.. *shakes head*

Well, she's still a student and not a fully-fledged biologist. Maybe she had no pre-requisite knowledge when she started and hasn't got to the evolution part yet in her studies

*Sigh* ignorance is not good...

Grr! They keep talking about moving my brother, then not doing it, then saying they're gonna do it a day or two later. Come on, people! I'm flying up to visit him tomorrow, and I don't even know what city I'm going to!

I have to get this off my chest...


At church, there's this girl, she's older than me. Well, we've gotten to talking once in a while, and everytime we do she's really nice to talk to. And so we exchange CDs one week...and I keep hers for about four weeks, then I give them back. She says she'll give mine back. It's been about a month, and she has been ignoring me. She actually ignores me all the time, unless I'm the one who starts conversation...She also has my music manuscript , with my compositions...she says she cant find it.


Anyways, the really maddening part about all this is that she pretends she doesn't know me everytime we see eachother. And it's not because she's shy...I mean, she's in her twenties, and she doesn't seem to have a problem with shyness...I don't know why, but apperantly she sometimes even desperately avoids me. It's not like I stalk her or anything, but's it's not exactly a huge church, if you know what I mean.

This has been going on for quite a while now...maybe it was because I insulted Brahms in an off-handed way

I guess there's the possibility you're just imagining that she's avoiding you.
Or maybe you just need a shower

Seriously though. If she keeps ignoring you, maybe you should give up trying to befriend her. Ask yourself whether she's worth your time. It would be her loss (well, yours too unless you get your CDs back ). Just don't let her annoy you.

I shower myself...with cologne, to make it more special...maybe thats part of it? She doesn't like cologne?


She has indeed kept ignoring me. I've pretty much given up on her, esp when she and Braveheart (her boyfriend) got together. I really jut want my stuff back now

The thing is, I'm so mad and annoyed at her now, I don't want to even think aboutasking for my cds back...but that doesn't mean I don't need them back!

I'm pretty sure that the use of the word "maturer-wise" dispels any possible illusions along those lines.

Smart people make the rules...you have to follow them, m'boy...and don't preach to me about truncated grammar, look "at yer own".

Mine is colloquial. Yours is butchered. I love the way you try to turn bad grammar into a proof of superiority, though.
