Stuff I Write When I Feel Like Writing

stuff i've learned in physics:
-Its possible to drop something and it will fall up.
-its possible that you can die because all the air molecules are chillin in the corner of the room
-I am a wave and i have to be careful walking through doorways because i may diffract
-1 dimensional boxes? wtf
-2 dimensional boxes? a little better but still wtf
-it is possible to have negative kinetic energy
-a rod that is 2m long can fit horizontally into a 1.5m wide elevator if it travels fast enough.

i'm thinking of ressurecting the LJ.

"Things like that make me really question the first ammendment"

Thu, 01 Jul 2004 02:26:19 GMT

the above quote comes from my roomate on the way home from seeing Fahrenheit 9/11 and i couldnt agree more, lol. what a load of bullshit. i sure wish i could be worshiped as a hero and recieve standing ovations for manipulating evidence to boost my own ego. honestly, i walked into that movie completely undecided but now i truly feel hardcore "bush supporting." This brings me to my conclusions about the movie, listed below:

If you are a democrat going to see the movie: you'll love it, your mind will stay the same
If you are a republican going to see the movie: you'll think its a load of BS, your mind will stay the same
If you are an undecided voter: you are probably the most unbiased and thus will not be swayed by the blatant propaganda

boo ya

So, I'm reading this book from my mentor and I've already come accross some great quotes as follow...

Chapter 1.
"Imagine an elephant with four mosquitoes perched upton its bum*...(footnote) *A mildly vulgar English term for rear-end"
"If you still don't get it then there is no hope for you when it comes to understanding averages and you might as well give up and become a sociologist"

Was that a bash on sociologists? I wish I knew what a sociologist does.

More great quotes to come soon perhaps.

"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."

The anthem of the Non-Comformists!!! right? yeah, thats what i thought. But lets look at the rest of the poem...

The Road Not Taken
Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

So, there you go, both roads were equally fine roads to go down ("just as fair" "really about the same"). The speaker even regrets "with a sigh" for "ages and ages hence" not being able to go down both roads. Thats what the poem is really about, making choices and wishing you could experience both options. The "one less traveled" is no different or better than "the road not taken." That kind of ruins the origninal understanding i had of the quote that so many people have under their senior pictures in their yearbooks, people who i believe had the same understanding that i previously had.

i know thats a weird update but i just fealt t=--54444] <<<this was kitty typing by the attention starved Kirby like discussing this. maybe i'll do a real update later.

You are a PHOENIX in your soul and your
wings make a statement. Huge and born of flame,
they burn with light and power and rebirth.
Ashes fall from your wingtips. You are an
amazingly strong person. You survive, even
flourish in adversity and hardship. A firm
believer in the phrase, 'Whatever doesn't kill
you only makes you stronger,' you rarely fear
failure. You know that any mistake you make
will teach you more about yourself and allow
you to 'rise from the ashes' as a still greater
being. Because of this, you rarely make the
same mistake twice, and are not among the most
forgiving people. You're extremely powerful and
wise, and are capable of fierce pride, passion,
and anger. Perhaps you're this way because you
were forced to survive a rough childhood. Or
maybe you just have a strong grasp on reality
and know that life is tough and the world is
cruel, and it takes strength and independence
to survive it. And independence is your
strongest point - you may care for others, and
even depend on them...but when it comes right
down to it, the only one you need is yourself.
Thus you trust your own intuition, and rely on
a mind almost as brilliant as the fire of your
wings to guide you.You are eternal and because
you have a strong sense of who and what you
are, no one can control your heart or mind, or
even really influence your thinking. A symbol
of rebirth and renewal, you tend to be a very
spiritual person with a serious mind - never
acting immature and harboring a superior
disgust of those who do. Likewise, humanity's
stupidity and tendency to want others to solve
their problems for them frustrates you
endlessly. Though you can be stubborn,
outspoken, and haughty, I admire you greatly.

Mon, 19 Jan 2004 04:45:24 GMT

oh, my poor poor car. It's nearing it final days. It's been so good to me. I was hoping it would last me through college but i really doubt that it will. Please car, just hold out a few more years.

Mon, 12 Jan 2004 21:40:09 GMT

ok, i guess its my turn to start updating again. life has been going well. school is good. i love all my glasses except for the homework load! AP English, AP Calculus, AP Statistics, internship. mrs. goldwasser rocks as always, ms gray is cool, mr hayes is the man. i've decided that he is going to be the new "coolest teacher in school" because mr bretz is now gone. internship is looking like it will be exciting. i'm doing it in the lab at surry chemical. i'm working with a chinese guy named eugene and some girl who used to be an intern like me. its pretty cool stuff really. my hands smell like the chemical i was testing today though, i cant get it off. i hope its not toxic.

yesterday i had to open hardee's so my schedual was all screwed up. i got home at one, my body expecting dinner at any moment. it didnt come until 6 but in the meantime i figured out the typewriter and filled out my aubry lee brooks scholarship. then i finnished my Burger King scholarship. yeah, thats right. burger king. i didnt get anything from hardee's but burger king wants to give me 1000 dollars. hell, i'm not complaining. my boss wants to take my picture and put it in the hardee's newsletter, lol. at about 7 i went to bed for a nap, my alarm was set for 9:30 but lee ann called about 9:20 so i didnt need it. i talked to her for a little bit and planned on getting up to do some more work but i dont even remember hanging up the phone. i was zonked out and didnt wake up until the next morning. at some point i reset my alarm for 6:30 but i dont remember when i did it or even if it was me that did it in the first place (even with 11.5 hours of sleep, i still doze off in calculus, grrr)

today, i've got to read a 15 page short story by Conrad, write an essay on characterization in "Astronomer's Wife", do a hellova lot of calculus, and watch Hamlet because i have to work tomorow and i will miss the pizza party viewing of it. damn. oh well. i better get to work instead of typing away on here.

i got my packet from NC State today. if i were to judge my college choice on just the packets that they send you, i'd choose State in a heartbeat! This thing kicked ass. included in a special, very organized folder was a letter kissing my ass saying that i was in the top 10%, a brochure for lots of different stuff, various checklists to make it easier continue the enrollment process, other stuff explaining and inviting me to the campus, and best of all a window sticker for my car! oh hell yeah, i'm putting that on my car first thing tomorow morning. i'm pretty sure i have decided to go to State anyway, not just because of the kickass acceptance package. it just seems to fit me best. i'm actually kind of excited about next year. all the hard work over the past few years is paying off.

Tue, 16 Dec 2003 01:50:10 GMT

ok so the past couple of days ended up not sucking at all :) saturday after lee ann left i went home and discovered that i had been accepted in to NC State *big sigh of relief* my mom almost cried and she made me print up the website and she hung it up in the kitchen. geez. it snowed and i was getting really pissed off at that but by mid-day sunday i decided that i was gonna try my chances at taking a trip to see Lee Ann. its a good thing i did because the roads weren't bad at all and i had a great time. oh yeah, except for when i lost my wallet! ugh, that was hell. i we scoured every place we had been since i took it out of my pocket. finally, after canceling my check card and everything, i just gave up and left, driving very carefully because 1. it was dark and cold so there might have been ice and 2. because i didnt have my liscense. as a last ditch effort i went back to the restaraunt even though they said they didnt find it when i called. well they found it after i called so they had it ready for me when i came. *HUGE sigh of relief!* no school today but angie woke me up and asked me to come in to work so i did at around 9:30 and worked till 8, yuck. it wasnt too bad though because i didnt really remember exactly what time i got there because i was still half asleep so my body didnt realize how long i was there. a very weird phenomenon. anyways, back to school tomorow. then i've got to do some hardcore christmas shopping FAST! signing off

a weekend off of work is great but i'm so fucking bored. i'd almost rather be working. i'm stressing out about christmas. its only a few days away and i have almost nothing done. my parents are pressuring me for christmas lists. when your parents are divorced its hard to think of two separate lists so they dont get you the same things. i miss the days when they could just buy shit instead of asking me exactly what i wanted and it was out of my hands. the appeal is kind of lost when i just tell them what to get. ho hum. this ice is really pissing me off. i've been planning "moving day" for weeks now and already i know i wont be able get to greensboro as early as i wanted. i may not even get to go at all. grrrr. i think i'm gonna go sledding to chill out. no pun intended, lol.

Wed, 03 Dec 2003 20:38:09 GMT

nothing new going on, i feel bad again cause i never update. i'm so bored lately. internet sites are worn out. i havent had much homework. no projects. i've got nothing to do. all i do is sleep and watch TV. blahhhh. i cant wait for the weekend!

Sun, 30 Nov 2003 22:10:01 GMT

ok so i yell at everyone about not updating and here i am without an update for like a week. oops, hehehe.

anyways, i guess i just havent really had anything too huge going on. great break from school. lee ann was home and, though i had to work a lot, we did get to spend a lot of time together. we saw The Missing on friday and i was pleasantly surprised. tons of out-of-towners came to visit for the holidays. aunt chelly and uncle david and the cousins from DC came down. its been a while since i've seen david. he was glued to the TV for the james bond marathon the whole time, lol. friday night, the kids dumped out 6 different thousand piece puzzles all over the family room and mixed them all together while no one was looking. yeah, that was interesting. chip also came back from the navy. he's leaving for spain soon and adam is worried he wont be able to be his best man. my grandad came up from sunset beach on friday and i had a nice long chat with him about my future. my parents and others have always told me that they were proud of me and that they believed i had great potential but for some reason it felt different when my grandad said it. he really made me want to set my goals as high as they can be. i still dont know a hell-of-alot about my future plans but talking to him made me quite optimistic. it just further proved my theory that he is the coolest man alive. who else can say they have a yankee-italian grandfather who is tied to the mafia, gripes about red-necks, and has the coolest name in the world (Michael Angelo DeBone). hmm is guess adam and ally... but thats all!!!

now its time for Coral Island, an essay, and Calculus. going back to school sucks.

Wed, 19 Nov 2003 20:59:44 GMT
