Dont judge the book from the cover

Kebayang kan? Pasti di pikiran ente semua awalnya bakal berpikir kyk gini…

Ternyata si Fajar a.k.a iVP suka ma *beep*

Wah,  berarti itu tanda-tanda otak ente harus dicuci tuh. Dari asrama eh asmara. Soalnya rata-rata status Facebook temen gw isinya cinta semua sih. Seperti ini:

Aku mencintainya, tetapi aku tidak tahu apakah dia mencintaiku?

Nah lo? Kecil-kecil udah pacaran *belagak jadi orang dewasa*. Ok, sekarang kita ke topik utama ya. Tadi siang gw ke ITC Mangga 2. Niat pengen beli komputer dengan harga yang sudah dimatangkan. Ternyata… Wow :O. Stok pada kosong euy. Jadi terpaksa harus diganti dgn yg sejenis. Contonya… CD-RW. Eh, ternyata udah dikit pabrik yg produksi itu. Terpaksa gw beli DVD RW. Halnya sama aja sih. Sewaktu gw masih SD, guru TIK gw memakai Disket utk media penyimpanan data.

4 tahun kemudian… gw pengen beli disket. Buat iseng aja sih. Pengen ngasih virus komputer ke temen. Tetapi susah banget ketemunya. Padahal disket udah lumayan sih. Dengan Rp 3500 saja, Anda dapat menyimpan data dengan mudah *baca seperti iklan Shampo*. Kalau pake CD susah banget. Mana harus di burn dulu. Gak semua orang bisa ngeburn CD. Tapi kalau pakai disket, semua bisa *baca jg seperti iklan kopi*.

Ah,,, perkembangan zaman begitu cepat ye :p. Semoga saja si “dia” membaca blog ini” lho? kok jadi ada tema cinta lagi? Ya sudah. Yg berisi tema “percintaan” kita anggap saja sebagai bahan bercanda.

Sekian dari tulisan gak penting ini. Mari kita sambut Week End dengan ceria

Polanski’s sister-in-law, Mathilde Seigner, admits she is delighted the star will soon be free, telling French newspaper Le Parisien, “I am very happy and relieved. We’re going to drink a nice glass of champagne and toast together.” [source]

Yeah, and then he’ll throw in some forced sodomy, ’cause that’s just how he rolls. Seriously, you’re talking to the national media and you bring up champagne?

What’s worse: that these people are simply unaware of the impression they are giving the rest of the world, or that they are, in fact, very much aware, and couldn’t give a damn? And then they have the nerve to complain about how their family has been negatively affected by this situation? Because, clearly, the utter sense of entitlement and “it’s OK to get away with rape for as long as you’re a celebrated genius” means that society needs to roll over and drool for your benefit?

He better still get extradited. Otherwise, I might have to quit humanity.

There isn’t anything else I’d like to say about this, so I’ll let appropriate gif be appropriate:

Adam Lambert:

After a surprisingly not shocking and undersexualized prime-time performance, Adam Lambert, a Vampire from Stephanie Meyer’s newest Twilight film, completely drained the body of  The View host Elizabeth Hasselbeck, which was never believed to contain human blood to begin with, and re-filled it with Sunny D.

Barack Obama:

While pushing his new healthcare plan, Barack Obama, went without sleep for 30 hours on the set of Two and a Half Men, trying to bribe Charlie Sheen and Lady Gaga with American Patriots and Golden Freedom, so they would play Poison Ivy and Batman, respectively, in the up coming production of Chicago, live on Broadway.

Black Friday:

After being pardoned by Barack Obama, the official Whitehouse Thanksgiving turkey pulled himself up by his bootstraps and joined Glenn Beck on a socialist gymnastics team in skimpy clothing, in order that Bud Light of the Holy American Music Awards would be protected from the Axis of Evil: China, Taco Bell’s Black Jack Taco, Shopping, and Portuguese Water Dogs.

Final Analysis: I know I’m shameless. And that is why I sincerely appologize to anyone who was offended, or convinced, by my attempts to Crash the State Dinner by dressing up as Jon Stewart, of Grey’s Anatomy fame, so I could take a picture of a Big Bank Bailout on my iPhone and send it to Santa Claus Holiday Dinner Menus. I am of peace, always.

So I turns out I’m now getting quite the reputation as a heartbreaker. It seems that people cannot resist my charms, and then when I warn them that I’m not an easy person to be with these days, that I can’t be relied on for commitment and that I have a severe case of ‘grass-is-always-greener’, they still seem surprised when I let them down. Granted, I thought I’d found something a little different this time …I mean, it went pretty great for almost a month. But again, after a while, things just started unravelling. I felt uncomfortable where I was, who I was with. The spark had gone, and I just didn’t want to be involved any more, and it started eating at me inside. I don’t even really care that she thinks that I’m a bitch right now …she’ll get over it. All I know, is that if I had kept things going for any longer she would have been the one that was hurt far worse (she told me she loved me after a week of being together, come on…!).

It’s actually kind of strange, because I was always more associated with the heartbroken in the past, and so getting a taste of the other side is really quite strange. I understand why she feels so upset and angry towards me, because a year ago that was me. But I guess that it’s also made me appreciate that sometimes, no matter how much you know you are going to hurt the other person, and no matter how much you care about them, when you just don’t feel right in your own skin anymore, and your relationship isn’t making you happy – then what else are you supposed to do?

I don’t particularly expect her to forgive me, I know that she sees my decision as out of the blue and a betrayal, but if you’re not happy after knowing each other barely a month, then is there really any point? It’s sad, but all the clichés that are used “it’s not you it’s me” and “let’s be friends” seem to be things that naturally come out. But then I guess I told a friend of mine once that they are clichés for a reason!

I guess this blog really was more just about understanding. I think that I can connect a little more to why people end relationships now. I never understood it before …not really.  Now, I understand…

Some girls grow up wanting to be just like their moms. Others grow up wanting to be nothing like their moms. And I think that each of those things are extreme. There is a healthy balance here. My mother is an amazing woman! She has/is raising 8 kids, mostly singly, as my step-dad’s health is declining, and so far, we’ve all turned out functional. She doesn’t care what anyone else thinks, and is the hardest worker I know. She is kind to everyone she meets, even when others think they don’t deserve it. She’s never afraid to take on anything, yet she is humble in everything. But, there are things that I hope I don’t “carry on,” and I don’t mean that in a mean way. She would be the first to admit, as should we all, that we aren’t perfect. Just as my hope for my kids is that more good will rub off than bad, she wants the same thing for me. But I’m afraid there is one thing that I can just get rid of that she has unintentionally rubbed off on me- no matter how organized and listed out my life is, I still lose things and forget things- and my mom is the same way.

One time, I locked my keys in the car with it running.

One time, I went on a soccer trip to Dallas as the captain of the team and left my soccer cleats.

Take for instance, when Jim and I were dating (or engaged, I really can’t remember). His grandmother gave me a check. So, I gratefully accepted and put it in my car. Not in the bank, or a purse, but the car. And you know what? I lost it. And you know what? I was embarrassed. So I prayed I would find it so I wouldn’t have to fess up. And you know what? Someone else found it on the side of the road and called Grandmommy. GREAT way to impress the new in-laws.

This past week, for work, I had to go to Target to purchase some gift cards for the College Ministry (we were doing some giveaways). Our church has a credit card with Target. As is customary to do, I go upstairs, get a purchase order, go into the finance office, check out the card, and therefore take full responsibility for it. We only have 1 Target card. And when that card is checked out under your name, you are responsible for all purchases. If you lose the card, and someone picks it up and refurnishes their house with it, you pay for it.

So here I am, first thing Friday morning, stopping by Target. I am aware of my ability to lose things, and therefore take extra precaution to make sure I don’t. As I check out, and the next person’s stuff comes down the conveyor belt, and they are waiting on me to move, I stick the gift cards, the purchase order, the receipt, and the card in my bag. I wad it up, so nothing falls out, and stick it in my purse. THERE- now if it falls out, it’ll just be in my purse. I drive back to work, am unloading everything and think: “Where is that card?” Not in the sack, so it must be in the purse. But, I can’t find it upon glancing in. So I dump everything on my desk- I find a dog collar, medicine, tampons, interceptor (for my dogs) a checkbook, wallet, pens, hand sanitizer, but no Target card. That’s weird. I KNOW I stuck it in there. Maybe it’s in the car- I keep my car clean (you know, so I won’t lose things) and it’s not there. Now I’m freaking out- really? I’ve lost it?

I get in the car, use white pages app on my iPhone to look up Target, call them, and humbly say, “My name is Sarah Johnson and I work at First Baptist Church. I seemed to have misplaced our Target Credit Card- has it been turned in?” “Hold on, let me check.” For what seems like hours and hour, I wait, listening to the latest sales when the lady picks up, “Ma’am, we have it right here.” “I’m on my way to get it!” I reply. Can you just feel the sigh of relief come out of my chest?

LESSON: Yes, because I choose to be anal (somewhat overly, but I’m working on it) about things being neat and organized, I don’t lose things quite as often as my Mom. But no matter how hard I try not to let the bad rub off, sometimes, it just does. And it’s okay. My kids are going to get some of my junk, too. I’ll just pray that I do more good than harm. When I depend on myself, I will fail.

Pulang-pulang ngeliat warnet tutup. Gw pun bertanya dalam hati… Apakah gerangan yg terjadi :p. Ternyata sp**dy bermasalah :fuck:. Gimana sih .

I think we’ve all seen and read and heard of a lot of horror lately. Sometimes, in the middle of the night and at the end of the year, we need to hold on a little tighter to what we believe in and what we hold dear.

I am a Nichiren Buddhist like Tina. Sometimes we need to hold on to ourselves as well as to each other. There is nothing more valuable and affirming than being here at this moment as a human being. It doesn’t matter if you are rich or poor. Your precious life is all that really matters, and those of your loved ones.

Hang on to what you’ve got. Make something better out of your life.

Hello everyone,

I have been thinking lately that this website is taking up a lot of time even though I have only had this site for a very short period of time.  I haven’t had a lot of views lately.  The largest amount of views I have gotten was on the first day which was 66 views.  From then on I have gotten less views some days even zero so I have decided to quit this gossip blog.  I might turn this website into something different but then again I might not.  Writing about what celebrities are up to takes a ton of time that I frankly do not have.  I have lost interest in this, it is tiring writing about who went where.  I think that it is a waste of time to write about what someone is doing when it really doesn’t matter.  I hope you understand.  If I do decide to turn this into something other then what it is right now then I will definitley let you know.  If you have any ideas please let me know.  I am sorry for those of you who enjoyed this website but keep coming back maybe I will decide to keep going but those chances are very very slim.  Please respond to this with a comment telling me if you would like to see something different.  I have a few ideas right now but I don’t know if I am definitley considering them right now.  I will have a poll…maybe…if I get some views on this.  I need to know if you would be willing to check this website out if it turned into something else.  Thank you for taking your time to read this.  I hope you all understand.

Thank you

When lawyers die in custody and serious questions are raised about what was and wasn’t done to save them, it is sick and disturbing, as sick and disturbing when journalists get gunned down in downtown Moscow. It means that none of us are safe.

However, let’s put Ben Browder’s comments on this situation in perspective.

How many people – most of them poor, most of them not exactly blond and blue-eyed – have died in custody in the U.S.? How many of those cases are properly investigated? I’m not even talking about the highly publicized or somewhat publicized debacles. I’m talking about the completely messed-up stories we used to hear while living in North Carolina, a state which is home to many immigrants, many of them undocumented and vulnerable. I’m talking about being told that I was lucky I was a white foreigner, you know what I’m saying?

I do not hear anyone branding the U.S. a “criminal state” over the abuses that have gone on, and still go on. Why? It’s not politically expedient to do so. Russia, on the other hand, was and is a convenient boogeyman.

At times like these, it is important to remember that Russia is not the Borg. It’s a complicated society, where there are many clashing ambitions and ideologies. Blaming Putin for everything that goes wrong in a country where the saying “the sky is high, the Czar is far” is still apt today is simplistic, and a cop-out.

I don’t see Sergei Magnitsky’s death as anything other than horrifying. But neither can I unquestioningly swallow the latest round of political posturing.

I should really get an iPhone. Or a Blackberry. Or maybe a wireless stick that will let me use the internet on my laptop no mater where I am. Because I sometimes have great ideas for blogs (example: tonight) but am nowhere near a computer. Perhaps typing a blog on an iPhone would be annoying as hell, but at least I would get my ideas online while they were still fresh.

I had a good blog topic planned for tonight, but an unexpected speed bump has left me far far away from the mindset necessary to accomplish such a topic. Instead you get this whiny blog.

Oh well, at least bad moods don’t keep me from reading.

Hey guys! Its kat! Ive been watching and viewing my clustermaps and views lately. I HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE! But I have good news and bad news, as usual, i will do bad news first. The bad news is, due to many tests every week for me with my puffle middle school, me and misty are losing much time to update this blog.

In my part of the country, we’ve just gotten our first taste of winter…several days in a row in the 30’s and 40’s filled with either rain or snow, with occasional heavy winds.  We had day after day of sunless gloom, which can really take a toll on the spirit.  And it’s not even December yet! Take that and add in the local news, which is 85% bad and it’s easy to start going downhill real fast, if you know what I mean.

So, I’ve decided that this year I’m going to make a conscious effort to not let myself be pulled into the abyss of depression or sadness in those times when the world seems like a hopeless case.  This is going to take some effort, but I know I can do it.

It starts with the news.  The media today is omnipresent, always eager to dish up the gory details of any crime, the newest scam, natural disasters, threats to our health and/or finances and any other depressing, shocking, or tragic news they can lay their hands on.  My rule is to listen to just enough to be aware of what I need to know …and no more. When they start repeating themselves (and they always do,) I hit the “mute” button.  I’ve also taken to hitting it when I realize that something is starting to dirty up my head with unnecessary negativity. Why should I listen to garbage that just makes me feel bad?

As for the weather -  on days when it is absolutely miserable outside, I’m going to make an effort to occupy myself with pleasurable and interesting things inside. And when that’s harder than usual, I’ll just close the damned blinds!   I may have to start reciting, “God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change…”  But, one way or the other, I’m fighting back!  Winter’s not going anywhere, so I just need to find ways to cope…

Oh, I don’t expect to feel like Susie Sunshine every day.  I am human, after all.  But at least I won’t be a victim of circumstances surrounding me in the world.

From now on I intend to take a more active role in shaping my own reality.  I’ll choose my reactions a little more carefully.  Rather than “It’s so depressing outside!” I’ll think, “It’s so cozy and warm inside.” And rather than “Damn!  My appointment was for 30 minutes ago and I’m still waiting,” it’ll be “Oh good.  I’ve got more time to read my book.” You get the drift.

It won’t be easy, but I don’t choose to let the news discourage me.  Nor do I choose to let the dark days of winter weigh me down and fill me with hopelessness.  Instead, I’m going to make different choices.

I’m going to opt for joy.

I’m going to choose…happiness.

Wish me luck?

“Go thunk yourself” philosophy—“Positive”, Put a plus before everything in your life—Day 6

(The ideas that have been learned from the book “Go thunk yourself” by Dr. Robert C. Worstell, are being shared. This is the sixth principle)

From today on start emphasizing on the positive side of the life, or in other words look out for the brighter sides, for there are a lot of good things to come in your life!

Some pratfalls you could avoid are as follows:

TV-raised generations and their thinking:

Creation takes place through our thoughts which are  POSITIVE ACTIONS. Thoughts are the blue prints for all the creation that takes place. Destruction, while thought of as a negative action, is not a negative action but the lack of any POSITIVE ACTION.

This is like darkness, which is nothing but the lack of light and there is no darkness in itself.

Darkness—Insufficient light

Non-positive thoughts—Inefficient, old junk (IE. Lack of new solutions and ideas)

This is emphasizing the NEGATIVE SIDE instead of taking the POSITIVE SIDE in your life, by new, innovative thoughts and solutions to problems.

Younger TV-raised generations have been taught how to use the gadgets and other modern equipments but not how to use their mind. They lean on solutions that are “Ready-made” rather than come up with their own solution or innovative and creative ideas!!

They are struggling to kick start the CREATIVE POSITIVE ACTION.

Just because someone’s thoughts and thought pattern appear to be stupidity, vagueness in expression or irrelevant doesn’t mean they can’t think clearly but has been conditioned to “Not to put effort” in thinking. That’s because they think through the solutions that others have already achieved for themselves.

In stark contrast, have you ever seen a firefighter, soldier, paramedics or any other professionals who could come up with a POSITIVE creative solution in a jiffy?

How are they equally good to the emergency?

That’s just because they had practiced thinking on a regular basis by solving problem after problem gaining a vast storage of ready-made solutions or the data that could be combined instantly to produce new solution(s).

Void of positive message in news media:

News media—TV, radio and newspaper are so interested in presenting all the controversial and negative news to the public than giving them positive, GOOD news.

Once again, non-positive is the lack of POSITIVE which doesn’t give us any chance to come up with a solution or find a solution as most of the information they provide us are NEGATIVES, not to mention they feed us with gloomy thoughts or thoughts that mislead.

Garbage in garbage out:

To have a positive light flowing through your life, start eating and feeding everything that is positive.

How many times could you see someone going around being critical of others whether in workplace or anywhere for that matter and getting complete support from the people?

You’ll see a miracle if that happens even once!

Very shortly, the other people would start their part of criticizing toward that person!

That is what life is basically.

If you are POSITIVE; if your approach toward others is positive; and if your thoughts are positive, then you get all the things that are in harmony with your “POSITIVE APPROACH”

When one thinks of others as his/her “competitors” wherever he/she goes, then all those people become that person’s “enemy” in his/her mind.

Stephen Covey says that criticizing, complaining, comparing and contending are the “Spiritual and emotional cancers”, like in the above example.

So what happens when one go on with this mentality?

1. With whoever they come in contact with they always wants to win against the person instead of thinking that they both should benefit.

2. Finding fault with others because they are now his/her “enemies”

3. Constantly on guard to dodge attacks that may arise from the “enemies”

This is the NEGATIVE outlook of life which results in negative feedback and results.

This mentality could be seen among some managers who don’t want to trade tips or exchange ideas but exchange glares!

Sales men and women who fight against each other and think the other as their “enemy” instead of considering a mutual benefit and sharing of their lessons they learned from their experience or training.

Positive contribution:

Think of Ray Kroc of McDonald’s and Sam Walton of

Wal-Mart.

What did they have in common?

They both had green papers that would take at least another century to count them by hand!

And secondly,

They both were top contributors. Walton could have easily become the richest man in the world but he routinely gave money to his children which ensured that he didn’t lead the Forbes richest people list.

It’s not how much one could amass but how much one could give POSITIVELY after he/she has gotten to a great level.

Prosperity and happiness is not just in receiving but in giving also, for Warren Buffet has contributed more than $30 billion to the now philanthropist Bill Gates who is operating “Bill and Melinda Gates foundation”.

Elimination:

If you want to improve in any area the first step must be ELIMINATION- elimination of non-positive attitude and non-constructive attitude. It’s easier to run without a baggage around your back, isn’t?

In the same manner, it is much easier to do a work or to carry out your endeavors in any area when you don’t have the baggage of “Non-positives”.

Let us finish this beautiful topic with the following astute lines by Wallace D.Wattles:

“Moral and spiritual greatness is possible only to those who are above the competitive battle for existence; and only those who are becoming rich on the plane of creative thought are free from the degrading influences of competition.If your heart is set on domestic happiness, remember that love flourishes best where there is refinement, a high level of thought, and freedom from corrupting influences; and these are to be found only where riches are attained by the exercise of creative thought, without strife or rivalry. ”

Wish you all the riches to come with God’s blessings

Just for my own purposes. So I can come back and look at it later. It’s a scrapbook moment, and I don’t have a scrapbook. Just this blog.

STYLE:

For the second year, the man elected as Knitter’s Hunk has gone on to be named People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive.” Knitters as prophets, I say.  And, editorial board of People? Just check here next year.  Save yourself some hassle.

SUBSTANCE:

Got a call last night that Mama had been checked into the hospital directly from what was to have been a routine doctor’s visit.  I’ve talked to her twice, and even she doesn’t know exactly what’s going on.  She and I both suspect that the doctor is trying to explain her continued weight loss (84 pounds yesterday), but no one has told her that for sure.  I have a bag packed, and am stand-by to go, but until things get a little clearer, she doesn’t want me to make that drive.  Too, Hannah continues to be plagued by the Head/Chest Cold from HELL, and I have yet another doctor’s appointment tomorrow for a prescription adjustment.  If I didn’t need a stronger/better anti-depressant before, I sure as hell do now.

A few weeks ago when I staked out my farm, I took some soil samples to be analysed.  I thought it was pretty funny that you could send a cup of dirt through the mail, and even funnier that I paid eight bucks to do so.

Anyway, I stopped laughing when my results came back yesterday.  Turns out I have a really acidic farm.  So much so that I’ll have to pull up the black plastic (yes, that same ridiculous plastic that I just took 20 hours to put down) to have a bunch of limestone tilled into the ground to increase the PH before the spring.  My reading came in at 5.0– dahlias grow best between 6 and 6.5. 

I need to buy about 700 pounds of lime (it’s okay- it’ll only be about $60) this weekend and get right on taking up all those ground staples and plastic.  Sigh.

My soil sample- looks good to me but apparently I know nothing

Elizabeth Lambert, a University of New Mexico football player (that’s soccer, to my fellow Americans – I think “soccer” is a stupid word and try to use it as little as possible, OK?), was involved in a pretty violent incident on the pitch and it wound up on YouTube. She was suspended from the team, and is seeking counseling. Now people are saying that she needs to be raped. And publishing her parents’ home phone number. I’m not kidding. Read the NYT piece on this.

Am I missing something here? Mike Tyson took a bite out of Evander Holyfield, and no one said he needed a good raping to make up for it. Wayne Rooney was seen practically stomping on Ricardo Carvalho’s balls, and no one said “hey everyone, let’s go harass Rooney’s family now.”

The truth is, bizarre, violent incidents take place in men’s sports all the time. I’m not saying that this is a good thing, I’m just saying that it happens. When you are feeling incredibly competitive, and are pumped up on adrenaline, you can lose control. Elizabeth Lambert lost control. And if she had been a dude, she would most likely not be getting crucified in public.

A woman’s public image must be demure. Or at least gentle. Or soft. Or beguiling. Or some crap like that. A woman who allows herself to get angry is a crazy bitch and needs to be taught a lesson. Anger is considered “unnatural” for women. It’s seen as an icky aberration. It must be corrected.

Remember the dude in “The Shining”? Talking about how he “corrected” his daughters? Yeah, it’s something like that. Only it’s real.

Do I think Elizabeth Lambert is a great feminist hero for doing what she did? No. It was a awful thing to do, and I realize it, and she realizes it, and everyone else realizes it too. Steps have been taken to ensure that it doesn’t happen again, and hopefully they’ll work. I don’t envy Lambert’s coach, because if and when this girl gets reinstated, there will be a tough trial period that inevitably follows as it is determined whether or not Lambert has her anger under control now. The miasma of bad publicity will hang over the team for a while, fairly or unfairly.

And yet, the people sending horrible insults and threats Lambert’s way don’t even have the half-excuse of sweating through a rough game. And if they want Lambert to examine her actions, they would do well to take a moment and examine their own. Let’s face it, aside from poor sportsmanship, Lambert is being criticized for not performing femininity correctly. She looks like she’d be really tough to handle. And that scares some people enough to bust out the torches and pitchforks.

Thanks to Alex for the link.

Am I the only one who has serious doubts about my future?

I’m not talking about the typical “What am I going to do with my life?” or even “Boo hoo, how can I get a job in this economy?”, but more of the… “Is there going to BE an economy, a country, a planet in the future?”

I realize how ridiculous this sounds, and trust me, I find it just as ridiculous. If I really believed this wholeheartedly, I wouldn’t be able to function day to day or plan anything for my future. But this idea will not leave my head. Especially when I plan for my future, these future crises keep popping up in my mind and make it difficult to think.

Some things that scare me:

1. Global Warming: This probably started bothering me after the first time I saw An Inconvenient Truth. There was just something about the pictures of Manhattan being completely flooded that just made my brain go “Hey, WHAT?” And after years of reading articles about it and seeing very little done to combat it, my fears have not been quelled. It just seems like a ticking time bomb that governments, and people in general, just seem perfectly content with sweeping under the rug.

2. Pollution: This is sort of tied in with the above fear. I don’t even want to think about the amount of harmful chemicals I’ve been exposed to in my life, and I shudder to think about the legacy I’m going to leave for my children. How is there going to be enough fresh water for the future? The way we all live our lives is not sustainable. Most industries are not sustainable. Is the planet even sustainable? *head explodes*

3. Nuclear Weapons: The fact that these weapons even exist threatens the life of everyone on this planet. And the catch-22 is that no country is willing to give up their weapons because it would mean they would be at a severe disadvantage with their security if they didn’t have nuclear weapons and another country did. And God forbid a religious extremist gets a hold of that kind of technology and the means to transport it. In fact, today I saw this headline on the Huffington Post about how open our ports are to nuclear bombs. Wow, that’s reassuring.

4. Overpopulation: See sustainability. (Also see population growth statistics).

5. War/Famine/Disease: I group these all together because none of them directly affect my life (though that could be debated). These are all serious problems with our planet that are causing an unimaginable level of death and destruction. Genocide, AIDS, starvation and just wide scale death in general makes my stomach churn. Especially preventable death. And what’s worse, if I think about this and overpopulation at the same time, a part of me almost thinks it makes sense. Which is awful! Rather than more people dying to cut back on the population of mankind, I’d much rather just see LESS BABIES BEING BORN! Wrap it up, humans.

There’s probably more, but honestly, it’s making me kind of depressed just thinking about all of these things that bother me.

I’m gonna go sleep now.

We did good yesterday! And I had a great time after all. So great that I lost my phone you might think but no, not that great, the phone is dead because my cats dropped it in a bowl of water. That’s right, my phone isn’t working so don’t bother trying to contact me through it. Don’t text, don’t call. I love my phone even though it’s a hundred years old (+ I have separation issues). You’re fingering your iPhones thinking it’s a good thing, I could use a new one. The majority would probably have thrown my phone out the window years ago, calling it dated even back then, but I still hang on to it and I’m quite sad to see it all torn apart like a sick and sad robot. “It feels like a family member is sick” Niklas said. Hopefully it’ll recover but it doesn’t exactly look that way right now. And you know what, a part of me actually feels free without the phone, knowing I won’t be reachable at all times, all day. Maybe this is a good thing. For a while.
