Seriously, seriously, LIBERAL ARTS? What is that?!?

Hey, Abigail, is it true that you actually won't graduate because you can't finish an 8-page article on bipedalism?"

Yes, yes, that might be true.

But that seems dumb. Just finish the article.

Because if I finish this article then I have to read another and I when I finish that article I have to read another and if I read from here until the end of time then maybe, MAYBE, I will graduate. And WHY WHY WHY are there so many damn theories about hominids? Why must I know them?

I have read about cannibalism, I have read about evolution, I have read about apes and monkeys and tools and tribe structures and violence and more tools and OH MY GOD THIS DISCOVERY IN THE RIFT IS CHANGING THE FACE OF EVOLUTION AS WE SPEAK.

Seriously. The Tuang baby is saying more than they could have ever imagined. And the ramidius? It's big toe is turned off to the side even though his ankle is UPRIGHT.

And then found some great fossil in 1995 that just might CHANGE THE FACE OF EVOLUTION some more but it takes a really long time to chip away the dirt.

Also, it took a long time for the world to form. Evolution is measure in "m.y.a." or million years ago. Tuang baby lived 3 to 3.5 m.y.a. and this most recent discover is as young as 2 m.y.a. and they found this crazy crazy thing that shows bipedalism over 1 m.y.a. BEFORE the hominids moved to the SAVANNA.

My life is a joke.
