urbandictionary describes the word "schooled" as:
"Being taught the proper way to preform an action, via extreme ownage and embarrasment. This requires the schooler, who is always of such a high level of skill that the schoolee has no chance of saving his reputation, to utterly dominate and show no remorse. If remorse is shown, it is done in a cool and laid-back way, as in to say 'Youre not even worth the effort of my pinkie finger', which ironically is just as brutal as an all-out ownage."
i really liked this guy's most detailed explanation, i think it appropriately captured the painful essence with the words "extreme ownage" and "utterly dominate and show no remorse"... damn, haha.
i am literally being schooled by school. ownage, one after the other. but, thankfully, it's through these ownages that i'm learning. no, not only like academic learning but i'm learning a lot about what nasty habits i have that i need to fix. and i'm really grateful for that, though maybe not in the moment...
example 1: physics. i dont even want to bore you guys with my redundancy about how much i absolutely detest, abhor, loathe, *enter equally hateful verb here* physics. even if i try to understand, i swear, physics is like slamming my head into a wall.. repeatedly. but i realized i'm not really giving it much effort. after my first expereience of trying super hard and failing, i've gone into my "why bother?" mode. nogood. i also dont even pretend to pay attention in class anymore. why? I HAVE NO IDEA. you'd think if i didn't understand the material based on the book, i'd be giving the teacher 150% attention. nope. anyways. enough of that. my point is, i hope that this is just me being schooled. i mean, we've got the ownage part down pat. now we just need the learning to come in.
example 2: statistics. duude, i was owning this class at one point. completely different situation. in this class, i got cocky. i was cruising with over 100% and then suddenly, i got a c on one test, "ahh no big, im doing well anyways.." NOT. it all goes downhill from there. from this, im being schooled on the arts of non-cockiness. haha
anyways. just something i've being thinking about. im glad that as I grew/grow closer with God, i'm learning to be more optimistic and look at the upside of things. i'm learning to be grateful for a lot of things that i, originally, would not have been grateful about, which is a nice change.
and now, i leave you with the example they put on urbandictionary. it is quite fantastic.
"Dude...Jim was getting schooled by Bob while playing basketball. Jim decided to be a tool and talk shit about Bob while he was losing 10-2. Bob then released a can of unrelenting whoop-ass on Jim, who then had no choice but to become a traveling back-up dancer and change his name to Kevin Federline.
He can currently be found schooling Britney Spears on the art of gold digging."
LOL

LENT STARTS TODAY!
in the past i've given up red meat (twice, unbearable both times..), chips, and shopping(failed). besides shopping, i've managed to not eat chips and meat for 40 days. i was very proud of myself. and i'd like to think that the only reason i failed shopping was because i earnestly NEEDED something. soo, i dont count it as a complete fail lol.
this year for lent i was thinking of giving up soda because 1)it's bad for me and 2) i dont seem to care about 1). haha. but i realized, that is SUCH a weaksauce thing to give up so i am giving up... something that will be much more difficult than meat or chips or soda....... like really tough... no im serious!
this year i am giving up facebook.
i dont think you can really understand how momentous this is for me. let me give you a clue. sometimes i sit in front of my computer, intending to go to my email and end up subconsciously typing facebook.com and ending up there. it's terrible.
in order to seriously achieve this i got my little brother to change my password, it hurts, but it's for the best. i've still gone to facebook's homepage and stared blankly at it, many times today. oh, and RIGHT after i finished changing my pw and everything i was doing my hw and i found myself looking at that "incorrect login" page. i had actually tried to login with my old pw.
-first off, memory FAIL.
-secondly, I IS PATHETIC. haha
hopefully i will do something more productive with all of my free time now... &hopefully i'll be able to endure these next 40 days.
