It’s Monday and it’s raining

January 25, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

It’s Monday, and I slept through my alarm and decided not to go to the gym today.  I woke up, and sometimes I can swear that either I am in harmony with the world, or the world is in harmony with me.  The bare trees, the rain blowing and hitting my window…it’s how I feel right now. I have been contemplating time travel with a few of my close friends.  The question goes something like this “Would you go back in time if you knew you could change the past, you have no idea what will happen in the future, and you can go to any point in your life?” The conclusion I have come... [Read the full story]

Ponderings

Consistent or Constant?

January 22, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

I’m sitting here, its a Friday and I’m done with classes for the day.  Something I’ve been thinking about is in regards to relationships.  Would you rather something be consistent or something be constant? The terms are this: The consistent relationship is ALWAYS good, but you only see that person on a monthly basis.  The constant relationship is not as good as the consistent relationship, but you see that person much more often (maybe 2/week). My take on it is that I would rather have something that is consistently good than something where you are just going through the motions. ... [Read the full story]

Spring Break 2010

August 24, 2009 · Leave a Comment 

I have been trying to figure out exactly what I’d like to do for spring break 2010, my last spring break of college.  While there are many choices, three options have been suggested as of thus far.  I will begin saving up now as work will be difficult with a full course load this Fall. 3) Ireland While full of possibility, I will be going there over New Years, so this is my least favorite choice at the moment.  However, the trip would be amazing if all of my roommates went. 2) Maui Maui is full of possibility, but I’m not quite sure on how expensive it is.  While it... [Read the full story]

Getting Introduced, and then seeing

January 23, 2010 · Leave a Comment 

Sometimes I think it is really weird how much/many people we just ignore and are in the background or our lives.  I noticed recently that sometimes I will get introduced to someone and then see them everywhere.  There is no doubt in my mind that this person existed there before.  I just didn’t notice them.  This happens so much, our brains just force people out to keep us sane.  There is so much that we ignore on a daily basis. I think we need to start seeing more again.  If we can see, we can introduce ourselves, saving the entire situation from depending on others.  Read More →

Bike Ride Across the United States Summer 2010

October 27, 2009 · Leave a Comment 

It was around this time last night when I was awake and thinking about certain things that I wanted to do.  What came to mind was traveling the United States.  I have always wanted to go to all 50 states and see the best of what is there.  While I wanted to do this in a car, and eventually I will get to it, I decided Summer 2010 is going to be about a bike ride across the United States.  I began to research as much as I could and came upon a website with great information and routes.  This website even gave me bike routes. http://www.adventurecycling.org/routes/ Here is... [Read the full story]

What is really the most important thing?

When you are on the verge of something, you reflect on how and why you got where you currently are.  This is where I am right now.  While the past is there and the future is ahead of you, the present is where you need to live.  It’s weird to think that at what point you were one of the key components to something,...

Why Do People Pass Away?

Why is life constructed in such a way that people are taken from us?  While science can explain all of how this happens, death is a very necessary part of life.  Life becomes that much more important when we have some sort of purpose, some sort of closure possible for those around us. According to the Kübler-Ross...
