Then you must get very bored ;)

But I am not bored, because I don't know what will happen tomorrow.  If I look at our universe from the outside, I see that I will do something tomorrow, and I see what will happen in one million years.  There will never be any changes in the situations that will happen in the future.

But it is impossible to know today what will happen in the future, because we can not have total knowledge about how the universe looks like just now.  If we try to find the exact position and the exact speed of an electron, then that electron will be disturbed by me looking at it.  So it is impossible for me to compute how our universe will look like tomorrow.  But the rules of our universe decide what our universe will look like tomorrow.
