Change

Buns

Like on cheeseburgers. Not... Ugh. Get your mind out of the gutter. Like with sesame seeds?

I'm thinking that now that I have a blog ONLY for philosophy... I don't know. Should this just be a summary of my day? There isn't really any point in repeating myself... So yeah. Summary it is. As well as posting more often, I suppose... Not every day, but just more often. Certainly every Sunday, but I'll choose how often I'll do the rest. When I have time, I guess.

Anyways.

Today was fine. Got up at 10... 30, I think? I got my iPod nano on Friday, so that made me really happy. I thought it supposed to get here on Tuesday, but it came earlier... 16GB instead of the 8 on my iPhone. Now I can actually use apps on my phone instead of only having music on it. Speaking of music, I also downloaded a bunch of music my dad has from some older CD's. And I got the new Lamb Of God album off of the iTunes store. It's awesome, like the rest of their albums. And I need to switch over my laundry...

Blah. Today... Ah, yes. We ran aronds, like dropping off donations, moved some stuff around the house, got McDonald's (it was yuuummmmyyyyy) and now I'm home again. Been here for a while, actually... And yeah. And Friday night magic! And the pre-release of Dark Ascension! AWESOMENESS!!! Dark ascension is the next set of cards for Magic the Gathering, and they had a prerelease for it on Saturday. Basically what happened was: each person got 3 booster packs of Innistrad and 3 of Dark Ascension. We then made 40 card decks and played ranked matches against one another. I got 11th place, so I got 2 extra packs, and I also traded some of my older cards for credit and got a starter deck of Dark Ascension. In all, I got 6 booster packs of the set that isn't supposed to be out till'... like... February. It was really awesome. And I had an awesome time. Thanks to my father. He spends a lot of money on taking my step brothers and I to those things... And just a lot of money in general... on everything... Blah.

And I got an awesome tie with a bunch of smiley faces on it today.

Got your nose!
HE'S GOT A NOSE! GET DOWN!
*BAM BAM BAM*

School - Learning

Double-paned windows

Waste of glass? I don't know. Why have ONE window when you can have TWO!? Why not give someone else that extra window?

Heh heh... I'm going off about windows. Wow.
Anyways. Life is pretty darn good. I'm a bit confused as of this moment, but not sad. Certainly more towards happy. Except school is tomorrow. Learning is good and all, but it's a pain shoveling all that information into you brain and then hammering it in to make it stay. A bit tiring. But that's what weekends are for, right? In the end, I think going to school is worth it, and I'm glad I have the opportunity for the education I'm getting, even if it is a pain trying to keep up.

Is anyone really BETTER than any one else? I think it's more of an opinion. Someone can spend a bunch of time learning one thing and end up knowing more about it than someone else. But then that other person might have spent time on something else. So really what I think it comes down to is: who spent more time on what that certain thing is? Who learned more in the process? Who has overall "bettered" their self in the given time? We all choose what we do with our time. Are we "better" for choosing learning over fun, or whatever it is we do instead? I don't know.

I am NOT a pony

Poetry - What's needed

Poetry (free verse)

I go outside to breathe the air.
Rain has just fallen,
the dew of the clouds and skies.
With each breath,
I am calmed,
memories renewed,
of places and times so long ago
and some so recent.
I am at peace again.

Anyhoo
It just rained for the first time in forevar. Don't you just love the smell of the rain during or after it's passed? I do, if you couldn't tell by the poem. So the Magic tournament was a bit depressing. I was utterly defeated time after time, but it was fun and I was happy. So it was certainly worth it. It was really expensive too! And I got to play Two Headed Giant with my dad (a team based game variant in which I was on a team with my dad) and we were also defeated time and time again. But like I said, it was fun and worth it. And yeah.

So... I've been thinking quite a bit lately. And I've been really happy. For a few reasons. BUT THAT HAZ NO QUESTION MIKEY says you. Shh. I'll get there. What do we need in life for happiness? We can have material things. Money, food, candy, etc. But that gives us momentary happiness, correct? I suppose you could have something that lasts and constantly gives happiness. And you can argue how you like. That's what this is here for. But what about other things that aren't quite there? Those things that are in our head that we need? Ignorance is bliss. Must we always be ignorant? No. I say NOT! I have been quite happy for one reason, and that reason will stay in my noggin. Its boosted my constant feeling, and things like the magic tournament have also made me feel happier. But I've found something I've needed for a while now. So the question is: What do you need for that boost in your happiness? What will make you on top of the world, make you invincible?

It's RAW!! Just GET OUT!

School - Learning

Wind mills

Round and round and round... Such is life?

Any hoo, I didn't post yesterday. So I'm terribly sorry. And yeah. I still don't really know what to say, what with a whole extra day looming over the due date of this blog... School started today for me, so it looks like learning is going to be taking up a lot of my time... Even if learning is what we do almost every second of our lives anyway... Not really a bad day though.

So... Let's a goooo...
Uh...
Hm...
Life seems to be filled with all kinds of mini revelations. Realizations. What color something is. Shapes of things. Faces hidden in the scenery. So I'll just leave this at that. All that knowledge going in one ear and out the other... Unless it all stays? In the unreached corners of our minds?

I'm a... I'm a... I'm a... IM A FIRIN' MAH LAZARS!!!

Double post - Bad stuff, new years

diarrhea

It sucks. No I haven't experienced it lately. Just sayin'. I really hate it when you wake up at like 2 in the morning and your intestines feel like they're being stabbed with a knife... and then you get up and go to the bathroom... and it explodes into the toilet...

OKAY ANYWAY

I forgot to do the last blog post, so this is a double... I'm not too sure what to write... ugh... and its already 10:32, and I have a head ache... Two questions, and I have no idea what to write...

1st question... I guess...

I wonder if there will ever be a point when people wont do evil things. Or feel bad... I've read books and stuff about how life might not be worth living without all the bad stuff, but come on. Really? To be honest, all I want in life is to be happy. So why waste time feeling sad and stuff? I guess if no one was ever angry or sad there wouldn't be metal music... which would kinda suck... but you wouldn't really need it if you were always happy... Or would you? I listen to metal when I'm happy just because it sounds amazing... even if I always listen to metal no matter what.
So what this comes down to is: Do we need the bad things in life?

2nd question

What's your new years re... re... whatever that word is? Where you make yourself better? revise... revolution... redemption... re... uh... you get the idea.

SO IS YOUR FACE
