Removing the Social Conventions

Hey so you can ignore the following paragraph about morals, coz it's kinda dumb. I think I'll rewrite it and make it make more sense, or phrase it better, or something, and then post it.

So I was thinking, pretty much all the relationship problems (not limited to romantic relationships, just relationships in general with other people) are only problems because of social conventions. By social conventions I pretty much just mean morals, but some other stuff too. Take away everyone's morals, and the social problems disappear. You wouldn't need to worry about your treatment of other people because no one would care. I think.

Last night, I thought I'd try out my sisters' exfoliating face gel wash thing. I was reading the instructions coz I wasn't sure if there was anything special you're meant to do, and it said to avoid the delicate eye contour area, but I thought I interpreted that as 'pay special attention to the delicate eye contour area', so I did. Then my eyes starting stinging a bit and aching, and they went red.

So I'm thinking more and more of just giving up on my entry on the Bubbble, as pretty much all the votes I've received are from people I know, and pretty much none are from the voters on the bubble, although I don't think many people read the literature section much anyway. Most people just pay attention to the photography and other visual catergories.

There's the link if you want to read it and possibly vote for it, which would be heaps appreciated, but if not, then that's cool too.

Under the spreading chestnut tree,
I sold you and you sold me.
There lie they and here lie we
Under the spreading chestnut tree.


Yeah so I'm gonna head to truong-english, which starts in about twenty minutes ish. I think that's a good thing because I was starting to run out of things to say.

this doesn't mean much
i mean you're saying if no one gave a crap about anything, there wouldn't be any problems.
i disagree
everyone will run wild people will think it's okay to stab others in the back etc.
and if there weren't morals, i suppose that'd be okay
but
people still get emotional and shit and feel betrayed and problems arise from that.
this is a long comment.
sorry.

I agree with anonymous. I also believe that the entire blog would be better if every word ended in ass.

I don't think that the entire 'competition' thing has a whole popularity craze about it.
That might be why it'll come down to a persons friends base, as opposed to a 'fan' base.
