comfort is knowing that you love someone so much that you find it hard to even talk to them and one day realize that they feel the same way about you.......

today i was involved in a potitical discussion, and i use that term loosely, with some people over in the theatre building about the US and its continued involvement in world affairs. Now this is just my opinion, but here goes.

The reason that we have 3rd and 2nd world countries is because of our involvement. factories where workers get paid horribly low wages for work because the us and other world wealthy countries have factories in these countries is not as horrible as everyone makes it out to be. sure, the conditions are not, to the US, good, but think of what those countries would be like if we did not put money into their economy and they were left to struggle and still hunt and scavange for food. Don't use emotionally charged rhetoric when you are trying to say that we should feel bad for spending the money we do to buy the things that we buy because if you dont like it, leave the country. Live with the poor people. I would rather have a good life for me than a shitty life for all.

this is of course merely scratching the surface of what i believe and how indepth this debate could go, but i thought i would throw out my two cents.

so here are the results from a quiz cammie sent me. it has to be the most insightful quiz i have ever taken. none of the bullshit that i normally put up here. if you want your life served to you in an impartial way, take the quiz.

Your Existing Situation
Acts in an orderly, methodical, and self-contained manner. Needs the sympathetic understanding of someone who will give him recognition and approval.

Your Stress Sources
Wants freedom to follow his own convictions and principles, to achieve respect as an individual in his own right. Desires to avail himself of every possible opportunity without having to submit to limitations or restrictions.

Your Restrained Characteristics
Clings to his belief that his hopes and ideas are realistic, but needs encouragement and reassurance. Applies very exacting standards to his choice of a partner and wants guarantees against loss or disappointment.
Willing to become emotionally involved as he feels rater isolated and alone. Egocentric and therefore quick to take offense, though he tries to avoid open conflict.

Your Desired Objective
Intense, vital, and animated, taking a delight in action. Activity is directed towards success or conquest and there is a desire to live life to the fullest.

Your Actual Problem
Fights against restriction or limitation, and insists on developing freely as a result of his own efforts.

Your Actual Problem #2
Takes a delight in action and wants to be respected and esteemed for his personal accomplishments.

like i said. its pretty dead on accurate. take it. i dare you..........

so i found a fun little site that kept me amused for hours.......okay just for a few minutes......but it felt like hours.

here are some of the slogans i came up with:

Unzip a Benny.
All You Need is a Benny and a Dream.
Make Room for the Benny.
Hand-Built by Benny.
The Loudest Noise Comes From The Electric Benny.

Benny Young Keeps Going and Going.
Watch Out, There's a Benny Young About.

They're Yummy For Your Couch Wisdom.
Look, Ma, No Couch Wisdom!
Taste the Couch Wisdom.

but the best of all and a slogan for things to come
Super Couch Wisdom is Almost Here.

have some fun and play around with this site.

so i thought today was going to be a good day....then i got to school. i am so glad that someone seems to be spreading rumors about me and my supposed hard drug addiction. if anyone knows the origins of this, please let me know because i would really like to find out why someone is saying the what they are saying.

okay so of all the colors in the world, i have to be this...................all i have to say is whatthefuck?!?!

You are pink. You are in limbo. Not pure and manipulated like white, not impure and noble like red. You are unsure of your real identity, but whatever you chose it to be, you can be it. That is your power. You change everyone you touch, and everyone remembers you. In literature, pink represents the place between heaven and hell. You are the one we will never forget.

What inner color are you?

a clear conscience is a sign of a bad memory.

i declare today to be an official sick day!

life would be highly theatrical if we always had that very dramatic lighting from varsity blues near the end with dawson giving his little pep talk.

"ism's in my opinion are not good. a person should not believe in an ism, he should believe in himself. i quote john lennon, "i don't believe in beetles, i just believe in me." and he should know, he was the walrus. i could be the walrus, but that doesn't change the fact that i would still have to bum rides."

tell me where its from and you win a prize...
