blogging when i should be mugging

i was recently reminded not to let pol science make me 'cynical'. I was thinking, no way, i wouldn't ever be cynical.

But today when prof jenco was talking about mao, i realized that i was indeed thinking about it in a way she described as 'cynical'.

Now i'm confused. I didn't think that was being cynical, i thought it was just being perceptive.

Somebody define 'cynical' please.

On a bright note, i just got complimented on my cooking! Abeit on something i cooked 10 months ago. Now i feel like baking something (:
