Fishywishywoshywashy

I would love to be a fish for a day. I mean I already have a perpetual add that a fish has. I love to swim. Its the one animal i make it a point not to eat. Fish tastes and smell bad. back on topic, imagin swimming in the open ocean. It must be amazing to feel almost weightless all the time. The ability to go up down side to side. The lack of effort that it takes it what amazes me the most. They look like thy are not even trying to swim. I want that lack of effort in my life. I'm not lazy or anything but i can honestly say that do not like to move that much.

Animal

What is your favorite animal? Random question, I know. maybe you do not have a favorite animal. if that is the case then what is an animal that you have a decent affinity towards? Mine is a bat. It has been ever since I was a little kid. They are mamals and yet they fly. They can not see that well but they can fly flawlessly at night. Plus they have a spooky aspect. Ever look at a bat? They are ugly creatures. Especially vampire bats. And yet they are still my favorite animal. I think looking at a persons favorite animals can help explain what kind of person he/she are. I love Halloween and bats are a big part of that scene. I am a nocturnal creature. I live for the night. There may not be many similarities but its the few that count.

National Ego

We all know our national symbols. We have our flag. We have claimed the bald eagle as our bird. We have even chosen the liberty bell as one. These are all testaments to our national ego. The U.S.A. has to be on of the most fat headed countries, and every other contry knows it. We inforce our rules and ideas, we make countries have the same government. We do not know when to stop. It is to the point where we made almost every country hate us or envy us. Why must we force our beliefs on other countries? What I think the United States of America should do is publicly apoligize to every country be like "My bad, we had good intentions but things got out of hand. We are going to leave now, but if u need any help just give us a holler!" maybe in different words. It may seem like a cowards way out but we need to give up on our national ego and worry more about our national image.

Totem poles

Totem poles are some of the earliest art forms done by Native Americans. they are monuments to the creativity. They are detailed works that took time and concentration on a huge scale. They must have taken for ever to create. The story behind them are just as creative. they tell stories, they show liniage and they make down notable events. And then there are things called shame poles that are meant to degrade individuals or groups. There will always be stories that we never hear. The imaginative events that happened are always going to be lost in history. We have little reminders of what has happened. Totems will always be my favorite. I even have a homemade one at my house. i wonder what historians in the future will think my life was by looking at my homemade artwork.

Video game withdraws

Imagin staring into a box for hours and hours upon end. just sitting there. the box moves about the same as you do.... none at all. sounds pretty boring doesn't it. Well that is what it looks like through x-ray vision when you are playing a video game Video games are comparable to drugs. They warp the mind. They create zombies out of everyday ordinary teenagers. they make people do irrational things like pay real money for fake houses. Video games make you feel good. They make you feel like you have achieved somehting. they kill time. but with every drug, there is a withdraw. For example: a high school senior just spent major money on his new system with his little brother. he loves it, he plays any and every game he finds. he loves 2 player games because he can play with his brother. well this same senior graduates from high school. he goes off to college BUT his little brother throws a temper tantrum when he tries and takes the system. So gameless the student goes off to college. And then there are term papers, quizes, and tests. No outlet. the student starts to freak out more about not having anything to play than actually worrying about the important stuff.
that is the withdraw kicking in. The urge to kill mythical beast and steal cars. gets the best of him. The kid goes on a rampage (but only makes it to the curb before getting beat up). This drug has affected this kid to the point of almost no return.

I say all this and then thats when i realize that most of the people around me im my major are afflected by this drug. It may not be a leathel drug but it is a problem that has so much of a following that in my major videogames are all I hear about.

My circle

Life is hard thing to get through sometimes. New problems present themselves everyday. There is always a new tribulation that is jumps in and makes a mess of everything. The main thing that gets me past every quandary is my group of friends. My friends are so tight that they even formed a name for our collective friendship. It is called "The group." It is so weird to me that any of my friends can say "the group" and i know the select people that they are referring. Everyone is friends with everyone. We are so close that when we hang out, all of us hang out. We role deep. I have always thought of me as the starter of the group. It all started with my Halloween party my sophomore year. I did not know that many people in the beginning of high school, i barely remember my freshman year because it was so uneventful. but when i had this Halloween party things changed. I invited some people i was fairly acquainted with. little did i know that people I invited would be my best friends. What is even more interesting is that my friends kept bringing more of their friends. My circle kept expanding and evolving to the point where i can't call any my best friend in fear of insulting someone who thinks that they might be a better friend. but really they are all my best friends. they all look out for me and I look out for them. When ever I'm done they always make me laugh. When ever they are down, I end up doing something really clumsy and make they laugh. My circle has brought me here and I can't wait to see where it is headed.

MMMM.........

Ahhh yes food, my second favorite pastime. It is funny that some one as skinny as me loves food as much as i do. in case you don't know me i am six foot tall and 140lbs. I like to think I am a fat person trapped in a skinny body. They say it will catch up to me but i think i am too fast for that.

Food, every has got to eat it. everybody has their favorite. there is just so much diversity in it, every culture has its own type of food. But what this blog is really about is how food has changed over the course of time. What was the food like back 200 years ago? 1000? 10,000? I'm sure food as evolved just as much as man has. what i wonder is what did a mammoth taste like? the giant animals, hell I want to know what a dinosaur tastes like. what did the spices taste like back then? did lettuce always taste like the lettuce today? these are all questions that can never be answered. i can't ever take what a historian says strait because he knows just as much as i know what that tasted like. NOTHING at all. I believe the air quality has help change everything in the world from plants to animals. if only i could go back. maybe then i would be fat
