Every once in a while...

I still visit this site.

here's a thought:

"You can't sell a man a toothbrush if you punch out all of his teeth."

The soul exists.

There is something within the human being that lives forever. Yet, how often the world says otherwise. What gives humans alone the ability to think about how we think? What gives us a conscious?

Pensees

We never keep to the present. We recall the past; we anticipate the future as if we found it too slow in coming and were trying to hurry it up, or we recall the past as if to stay its too rapid flight. We are so unwise that we wander about in times that do not belong to us, and do not think of the only one that does; so vain that we dream of times that are not and blindly flee the only one that is. The fact is that the present usually hurts. We thrust it out of sight because it distresses us, and if we find it enjoyable, we are sorry to see it slip away. We try to give it the support of the future, and think how we are going to arrange things over which we have no control of a time we can never be sure of reaching...

Diversion. Being unable to cure death, wretchedness and ignorance, men have decided, in order to be happy, not to think about such things.

--Blaise Pascal, Pensees #172, #133

Almost there

I know I shouldn't be posting as I already posted once this month, but I have a crazy school schedule for the next 3 weeks so I won't get out much. Anyway to pretty much sum it up the next 3 weeks for me; 8 finals, 2 papers, 1 project, 2 lessons, and an audition for Die Fledermaus. I think I am leaving on the 14th now for brainerd. That cannot come quick enough. Aynways if anyone is wondering if you want to get from the cities to cleveland don't take mega-bus. this weekend was the 2nd time I took it and it was the 2nd time the bus was late getting to chicago so I missed the transfer and they don't even care. Oh man I was not happy. Anyway I got back here via greyhound. So yeah anyways, any good travel stories anyone?

3 things

I have not slept in 24 hours, My half of my dorm room is crazy clean, and I look alot like a samurai (and by 'alot like' I mean exactly like) right now.

frickin a

Ok, today was officially the worst day since I got here. Like it wasn't even close 1 thing happened that would have made it the worst, then another thing happened that made it undeniably the worst then my soccer team lost 5-0 just to rub it all in.
