Feeling Philosophical

Hmmm.. no philosophical smiley. Too bad...
I find it interesting that people can be part of the same experience and see it in totally different lights. The specific incident I'm thinking of is Justine's (Solace's) fight with Mark. I find it interesting how in his view, Justine attacked him, saying nasty things about Janine and rubbing in her relationship with this Matt guy.
On the other hand, in her perspective, Solace did no such things and was quite happy for Mark and Janine.
Sounds like to me that this was a really stupid and unnecessary fight. Feelings shouldn't need to be hurt here. Justine should be happy for Mark and Mark happy for Justine.
Too bad it doesn't really WORK like that. (Humans are silly like that. They overcomplicate life.)
Oo, and to make things more interesting, Alana, who I PERSONALLY have very little respect to (Hi, Alana, if yer reading this and I wouldn't be at all surprised if you were) as I think she's emotionally immature and suffering from a "Poor Me" syndrome, steps into the middle of things and makes things worse by yelling at Mark and tell him how horrible he is for venting over an otherwise stupid fight.
Alana, if you are reading, this getting a CLUE and get yer nose out of where it doesn't belong! Or were you purposely trying to make even more people mad at you? Have you learned nothing since last year? Surely seems not... seems yer still as emotionally immature as when I broke communication with you.
Oh well, time for work.
Mark and Justine, I hope you two can talk this out and leave as friends. It would be a pity if you couldn't.

Another Day, Another Journal

Another day come and gone. Not a whole lot to say today, tho.
I came in to work after writing my last journal entry re: Alana, Mark and Justine, got immediately herded into a meeting about this new program a PhD student, Craig, is developing by the name of Visual Bluebird. It's a fairly nifty program that uses analytic solutions to groundwater problems. It's based on the Split program developed by Dr. Jankovic in our department. The presentation was fairly dry, but over fairly quickly (only an hour and a half or so)... I went to lunch at the campus Italian shop (pretty lousy service.. I sat there for like 20 minutes until he remembered to bring me my pop and salad bowl.)
I went over to talk to Dr. Rabideau to ask him NOW what I'd be doing since it seems since yesterday's meeting, the scope of the project has gotten bigger and since I've already got another project lined up for next year more in my field (Water Quality Modeling - I'll do something re: Lake Ontario) I'll be doing.. I don't even really know. Then I did some web-work, came home and played around on the computer.
Oddly, I'm surprised Alana never commented to either mine or Mark's message... this means either she's read them and doesn't want to answer.. or she hasn't read yet. I guess only time will tell.
Oh well, TTYL
