Priorities

You know that feeling that there is something more important that you should be doing?

Well I have a closing statement to announce, a pretty important science test on my first day back, alot of science homework (ALOT), makeup math + current math homework, oh yeah, and a spanish oral to study for. And what am I doing? Exploring Reddit, creeping Facebook, messing on Flickr, playing with my blog. I guess you know the feeling too. There's definitely something you should be doing right now, but instead, you're on my blog.

The Hottest Olympian

Watching the 2010 Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony, and I think we are all in unanimous agreement that Torah Bright is the hottest olympian. If you agree, click here.

I hope you're watching the opening ceremonies right now. If you care to watch any specific upcoming events, the complete schedule is available here.

Life Just Is:

Life is a collection of moments,

flabbergasted to be in each other’s presence.

The mistake is to believe that because then happened,

now is not.

A continuum of actions and predestined reactions,

create the world in which we live.

The mistake is to believe that because these laws control our physical actions,

that our free will is therefore restricted.

Evolution has taken its path and has created,

but what we create with what has been given,

that is life.

To breathe, to maintain a steady pattern,

to continually maintain the equilibrium between mind and body:

one’s shell, and one’s soul.

To accept one’s world and life so completely,

the affirmation of one’s life,

so unqualified and reckless,

that it amounts to total denial of every restriction and limitation.

Do not allow yourself to be swept along,

we are all co-authors of this magical exuberance,

and, as the pattern becomes more intricate,

to join the ride is no longer sufficient.

The ride does not require explanation,

and occupancy isn’t the key:

Life is once more, and once again, and forever,

the key is simply to remain in a constant state of departure,

while always arriving.

Mock Trial Retreat

So we're here at the beach. Sorry, portlanders call it "the coast". Its raining. Of course its raining. We've worked all afternoon and gotten nothing done. Of course. My friends are having a party and I'm stuck here with the coonsta' and The Megan. Its cool.

Charles Darwin's Birthday

The father of the modern evolutionary movement stated in short that the strong survive and reproduce, and this is how evolution occurs and the gene pool is modified. To celebrate Darwin's legendary discovery and theory, I present a video of a man removing himself from the gene pool:
