the rules are arbitrary.
there are no set of things that one can do or can not do. its the frickin universe we're talking about here. the universe made the rules a long time ago, and by proxy granted me with self awareness and self determination. i get to interpret the rules as they apply to me and me alone. these rules will not work for any one else out there. you all have your own battles to fight with the universe.
it could be something as small as getting a paper cut (universe: 1) or scoring 90% on an exam (jade: 1) the rules are subject to my interpretation. As a loose guideline the terms of engagement are as follows: when i set my self to a task the varying degrees to which i accomplish my task are what are considered for points earned. for example: monday night i was delivering pizzas. at one point in the night i managed to get stuck behind some one who was driving 15 mph down lyndale ave. subsequently we hit every single red light between 49th st. and 24th st. turning what should have been a 10 minute drive into a 35 minute ordeal. that gains the universe 2 points for the slow driver and the obscene amount of red lights i had to stop at. however, i made a lot more money than i was expecting that night. Jade: 1 point.
the factors that are out of my own personal control are what the universe needs to win this battle. but the very fact that i am now aware of this battle slightly tips the scales in my favor. i can try to anticipate how the universe is going to fuck with me and take actions to counter it.
that is all i can say about this issue at this point.
the tally now stands at Jade: 3 Universe: 3. yes its a tie. there would have been points given, but there was some studying that didn't get done, and a conversation that needed to be had was had. so it is a push.
i'll talk to you all tomorrow, for now the robot needs rest.
