Hey guys... some advice: Go to Doc's. It's a good place, with good stuff to drink/eat, and its locally owned. It isnt a chain. What's preferable.... supermassive chains like Starbucks, or locally owned places like Doc's? I guess I'm inclined to say Doc's. And besides... Nick Meinhardt works there.
World Lit.:
"How does Hinduism propose to make human life more perfect, comprehensive, compassionate, universal and truly human? Does it, in your opinion, hinder it in any way?"
AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.... why do the teachers have to be so blastedly stupid? The stuff i've been doing in physics is the same stuff ive done EVERY YEAR SINCE 6th GRADE!!!!! the stuff i've been doing in math analysis is the same stuff i've done EVERY YEAR SINCE 6TH GRADE!!!!!! the modern euro teacher DOESNT TEACH!!!!! he goes on about how safe women are in Muslim countries, which is basically a lie. Ok... so maybe there is less street crime against women there since there is no such thing as a repeat offender, but does that ballence out with THE HUSBAND BEING ABLE TO DO WHATEVER HE WANTS TO HIS WIFE????? no...........
Haha, some people like to complain about people who complain.
I'm going to talk about something that has really been bothering me lately. It's... my throat. I don't get it. It's like it's just getting constricted, filled, blocked... I hate it! I hate hate hate it! It's horribly annoying, and yet I can't describe it, and thus couldn't have it diagnosed! I might go in for a throat culture, but who knows how that'll go? I just want it to stop. I like breathing without having to swallow. And all the water I have to drink... I might as well just make a hotline from the fridge to the bathroom. Daaangg.
One: My sister found my keychain! It was outside, on the grass, and part of it is rusted. Luckily, it's only a functional part and not an aesthetic one. Hold on a second... that doesn't make sense. But it's true. It still looks good, I and I love it (and my sister) for it. I'm complete again!
Two: I currently have a ten-episode DVD of SpongeBob SquarePants sitting in front of my TV. It's a fun watch, and the extras are pretty cool. None of the cheesy extras, like "interactive menus!" and "convenient 'pause' technology!", but real extras. You can play it so little SB-SPs pop up when you're watching, and clicking on them goes to a little aside on the story, or the process, or something else really cool. To top it off, there's a music video, and a video recording of the actors doing about five-ten minutes of voice-acting. It's great stuff, seeing the people who play Sandy, Squidward, Patrick, and SB, especially if you're a fan looking for more.
Three: I too hate the idiots at school, but probably for a different reason than has been said before: They're slowing down my education. Take Spanish II, for example. Because of people like David Thompson (who, as a plus for himself, isn't a jerk, but I think he really, seriously doesn't understand Spanish, however I he still factors into this), I'm forced to review the same twenty words with a partner who doesn't care, and then recite numbers. My sister, who is is in the eighth grade course at Friedell and doesn't really grasp Spanish at all, can do the numbers up to twenty. Can so much stupid happen over two years? I hope not.
I'm still perturbed that the people that hinder my learning will be the ones on the Homecoming Court. I hope to the high heavens that someone I know AND don't dislike will be up for the crown.
Katie, just fyi, I wasn't saying that from my personal beliefs, but from the Hindu viewpoint. Didn't I already say that... oh well.
On the topic of M(r?)s. Kapoor (or I could just call her Richard), it's kinda hard to tell if she's Hindu, but she certainly knows it pretty well (or seems to). This class will be awesome if she has the same level of prowess in all the topics we'll study this year.
Oh, and just so there's no conspiracy, I've been taking care of double and treble posts.
Maybe Hinduism is accepting in a sort of passive way. I mean, according to their beliefs, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks, because their soul will go on. In a way, it's like Christianity. I believe that it doesn't matter if you're Hindu, Islamic, or even Christian, you're going to face ultimate judgement when you die. If it's okay for me to say that, then I have to allow other people to say the same. Somebody is going to end up right, but if it turns out to be Hinduism we'll never know anyways. :)
While I must admit the idea reincarnation is pretty cool to think about (imagine if I'm the reincarnation of Winston Churchill :) ) I guess I just don't quite buy it.
In other news..... check out Mikaela's op-ed in today's PB. Also, if the WFC and Pedro mean anything to any of you, you should tell me who Pedro is (I realize that the last bit probably violates the make sense rule in many of your minds, but I have a definate intent here).
Supposing that the whole thing is true, I wonder what I have been/done in past lives. Then again, I don't completely buy into Hinduism, so I guess it doesn't matter.
Hey, since Hinduism allows for many incarnations of one soul, does that mean religion isn't a part of the soul? Because if it was, then we'd all be Hindus, right? Because if my soul believes in a supreme Allah or God or Jesus, then wouldn't that contradict my eternal belief? Or am I just making this all up?
Man, I miss my keychain. I bought at Yellowstone, and it was the first addition to my keychain, but now it's gone. :( It had a nasty habit of falling off, but only inside my pocket. But today, when I went to start up my car, I noticed it was missing. I hope it shows up either at home or at school, but I'm not getting my hopes up. A sad day, indeed.
You are 44% geek
You are a geek liaison, which means you go both ways. You can hang out with normal people or you can hang out with geeks which means you often have geeks as friends and/or have a job where you have to mediate between geeks and normal people. This is an important role and one of which you should be proud. In fact, you can make a good deal of money as a translator.
Normal: Tell our geek we need him to work this weekend.
You [to Geek]: We need more than that, Scotty. You'll have to stay until you can squeeze more outta them engines!
Geek [to You]: I'm givin' her all she's got, Captain, but we need more dilithium crystals!
You [to Normal]: He wants to know if he gets overtime.
OK, so maybe you ain't a geek. You do, at least, show a bit of interest in the world around you. Either that, or you have enough of a sense of humor to pick some of the sillier answers on the test. Regardless, you're probably a pretty nifty, well-rounded person who gets along fine with people and can chat with just about anyone without fear of looking stupid or foolish or overly concerned with minutiae. God, I hate you.
