Sun.

I had a really bad morning today. I woke up as my carpool arrived and then had to walk out to the car in my pajamas to tell them to leave and not drive me. I went in and told my mom that I missed carpool and she said to get dressed. I did and when I came upstairs she told me to get my brother up etc. etc. etc. Twenty minutes later my mom got up to tell me she was sick and that me and my brother had to walk to school. It was almost 8 by the time I left.



I began to walk to trax/bus upset because I waited for twenty minutes for my mom her to give me a ride which she never gave. But as I got on the bus going down 1300 east I realized that it was sunny and warm. The sun light was reflecting off of everything and making everything look brighter in more than one sense. I got off the bus and began walking to trax, and gazing at the busy street bathed in sunlight I couldn't help but smile.



Once on trax I felt the good vibrations coming from the warm people. I wathched as people walked up the stairs and carefully chose a seat and as they briskly jumped off of the train. I looked at all the people realizing that each of them were thinking. Each of the people on that train were thinking individual thoughts that I wasn't thinking. Each of theese warm, sunny people were not only expelling good vibrations but they were also thinking. Thinking all these things caused me to smile and forget about everything else.

Karma in pin form.


The godess of Karma is a bitch, that we all know. You can almost count on ALMOST everything bad that happens to you is because of that bitch. I have found a great way to decipher whether or not the bad thing that happens to you is Karma or not. This system is called Pin Karma. I once had a pin collection on my bag with up to 50 pins on it. Than they began falling off one by one clattering down onto the ground. I then began thinking, and figured that I could match every "bad" thing I had done (since I gained my pin collection) to a fallen pin. I then matched the worst things I had done with my favorite pins. For instance when my "jesus pin" falls off I better get ready for Hell. If that one Morgan gave me that I don't understand fell off my response would likely be "meh." I currently have roughly 10 pins. I encourage you other Karma believer ins to start your own pin collection so you to can know when Karma is being a bitch.

A Pastifarian outrage!!!

I am completely outraged! I was so angry when I read this article (http://www.newsique.com/us/student_punished_for_spaghetti_b/) I nearly steamed. A fellow human being is being discriminated on purely because of his religion. Do these people not understand that if he does not wear his religious uniform our world will be deteriorated by global warming! What they are doing is slapping the spaghetti monster square in his noodly appendage, can they not understand the devotion this man must have to his spaghetti monster? I can confidently tell you that the people who did this will most definitley shrink at least 2 inches.

Heart is not a word.

This was on the bottom of the stall door in the school bathroom.

Mom

I have a strange feeling that my mother is trying to spy on me through my blog, which I hadn't told her about. So if she is I would like her to stop spying on me. Thank-you.

Mormons the recession and a succesful prop. 8.

All people are suffering from the recession, with 162,000 job layoffs in January alone. All people that is except for the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints. Somehow the Mormon church has been able to spend Millions of dollars on prop. 8, not to mention the gargantuan temple they just built. How can an organization that is based in Utah pay 17.67 million dollars for a proposition that only effects California, not to mention while the entire nation is in a economic crisis. Not only are they able to donate 77% of donations to pass a proposition, they were able to build a temple that is so large and ornate it is almost ungodly. The site is 12 acres, and the building itself is 58,300 square feet. In the online magazine "the mormon times" the church empathizes with its followers, writing about how it is so incredibly hard to handle the recession, especially not being able to buy the children backpacks or new clothes. This church feels that it is not unethical to make their followers feel like they are having problems too, while they are doing fantastic. Although you do have to look at the fact that the temple was probably built nearly free for them. Here is a description of the first room of the temple done by an NPR correspondant "The lobby is ornate, like the rest of the building, which has exterior walls made with white Chinese granite, floors paved with limestone mined in France, windows filled with pastel stained glass, ceilings hung with crystal chandeliers, and doors, paneling, cabinets and trim carved from Makore wood from the west coast of central Africa." It seems that everyone is suffering from this recession except Jesus's fan club.

Histories and Futures

Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, George Harisson, George Washington, Andrew Jackson, Martin Van Buren, Zachary Taylor, Millard Fillmore, Abraham Lincoln, Andrew Johnson, Grover Cleveland, Harry S Truman, Mark Twain, William Faulkner, Ernest Hemingway, Gore Vidal, and Marilyn Monroe. Any of those names sound familiar? They all have somthing in common too: they didn't go to college. I'm not saying that if you do go to college you won't be successful I just think that people should stop directly relating college and happiness/money/successfulness. I'm tired of hearing that if I don't go to college I will make 50% less or whatever. I would also love it if people would stop thinking that just because I don't care about my letter grades that I don't care about learning or an education: stop assuming I am refusing to go to college just because I don't think it is absolutely necessary. Grades are important if you aspire to be somthing that requires a college degree, like being a medical examiner or a teacher. However, if you aspire to be somthing like a florist, or an artist, or a musician, or a photographer, or a novelist you do not need good grades or a college degree. I would be interested in going to an art college, or go study philosophy but it's not the highest priority on my list right now.
