annundrielOoooh, Christmas Eve Day. And no snow to be seen at all. :( Sad panda am I. Can't we have just a little snow? That sticks? Can't it be pretty outside? Right now things are brown and gray and really really dull green.
Does the Shire ever get really yucky during winter?
Today I have to wrap a present or two and go to evening mass. Fun times. Will miss ET though, and I heard a rumor they'd be doing a bit on TFSotW. Blergh.
There has been a cheating problem in Psychology at school and I've been hearing a lot about it. (I'm so glad I'm not in that class.) The teacher sent a letter home to the students' parents saying, "I think your child has been cheating . . ." Anyway, I hear all this stuff about how they can't believe they got caught, the letter, the punishments, and getting back at the teacher. There was one thing I didn't hear, though, and it really bothers me. Not a single one of them seemed to realize that what they had done was wrong. They believe that they were justified in doing what they did, that they didn't really cheat, that they shouldn't be punished.
The whole thing really bugs me. How can they not know what they did was wrong? And how are they going to deal with people who call them on their screw-ups later in life if this is how they deal now?
