mousmeAfter reading my review I kind of feel bad. Not that I didn't like my review, which was very nice indeed, but rather the reviewer reproached me for not dicussing politics and philosophy more in my LiveJournal.
I'm a little concerned now. I've never been particularly vocal about my political and philosophical beliefs, and I've never really bothered to write it all down mostly because I succumbed to inertia and laziness. Unless I had a paper to write for university I never really forced myself to organise my thoughts in a coherent manner (unlike, say![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
forthright).
Maybe it's time to change this.
On the other hand, one of the reasons I never really made my thoughts public is that privately I'm not sure that I'm really as intelligent as other people think I am. I'm not an idiot, of course, but I'd rather people think I was brilliant just from the hints I drop rather than conclude that I'm kinda bright but not that great after reading some half-brained opinion somewhere.
Gah. Is this making any sense at all?
Also, I have the sneaking suspicion that some of my more critical faculties may well have atrophied since beggining work at Bell Mobility. This job isn't exactly intellectually stimulating, even though it's a source of great entertainment at times.
Maybe I've become an idiot since I left university and just haven't realised it. ^_-
