  • Replacement

    Is it worse to be replaced or to be a replacement? In the displacement of one entity for another, is the net effect worth the actual displacement?

  • Justification

    Why is it that I feel I must justify everything I do? I added a journal functionality to GITI, and I question myself as to the usefulness of it in the future. I find that I like going back and exploring my past sometimes, shouldn’t that be justification enough? Other times I feel pressure from people outside myself that want justification for why I do things, such as why I have a blog, or why I do or dont want to certain things. Is it not enough for me to just have an opinion?

  • Time Stand Still

    If Chris can use lyrics to convey his moods in his blog, I can too, my current mood: Rush – Time Stand Still.
    I turn my back to the wind
    To catch my breath,
    Before I start off again
    Driven on,
    Without a moment to spend
    To pass an evening
    With a drink and a friend
    I let my skin get too thin
    I’d like to pause,
    No matter what I pretend
    Like some pilgrim —
    Who learns to transcend —
    Learns to live
    As if each step was the end
    Time stand still —
    I’m not looking back
    But I want to look around me now
    See more of the people
    And the places that surround me now
    Freeze this moment
    A little bit longer
    Make each sensation
    A little bit stronger
    Experience slips away…
    I turn my face to the sun
    Close my eyes,
    Let my defences down —
    All those wounds
    That I can’t get unwound
    I let my past go too fast
    No time to pause —
    If I could slow it all down
    Like some captain,
    Whose ship runs aground —
    I can wait until the tide
    Comes around
    Make each impression
    A little bit stronger
    Freeze this motion
    A little bit longer
    The innocence slips away…
    Summer’s going fast —
    Nights growing colder
    Children growing up —
    Old friends growing older
    Experience slips away…

  • Trust

    Where do I begin with this… I am discovering that I lack the ability to trust. I want to trust certain people in my life so much, but it seems out of my grasp. I have been telling myself that I trust Chris completely, but apparently that is only under certain circumstances. Any time he and I have an argument I worry that I have ruined the friendship completely and I usually become extreamly worried about the situation, even if it isn’t my fault I find ways that it is my fault and I blame myself for the situation. What I have been told over and over is that Chris won’t leave my life abruptly and that there will be chances for resolution, but somehow I don’t trust that. The other there was a slightly hostile issue while he and I were at a store together, and he told me to leave him alone. To get his attention and possibly get him to talk to me I acted like I was leaving without him. He didn’t even attempt to follow me. How did he know I wasn’t serious? I guess he really trusts my judgement and how much I care about him. I could never just walk away from him, ever, under any circumstances! Tonight was an issue of him just wanting some space, but I find myself sitting here, freaking out because he doens’t want to talk to me. My thoughts once again jumped to me asking myself what I did wrong and what I can do to correct it, but should I really be going to those thoughts? In my enlightened and logical thought proccess I know that everything will be ok and Chris will talk to me again later, but my irrational and highly volitle emotional thought proccess is going immediately to being hurt, upset and seeking some type of resolution.
    At the momement my emotional state has changed to feeling abandoned because of issues that came up while I was writing a blog entry that was going to be posted in addition to this, I am having these feelings and I need someone to talk to, but at the moment my mother is asleep and Chris isn’t willing to speak to me, so what am I supposed to do? I guess I really do need more friends who are close to me. I hate feeling like this, I need to talk to someone and there isn’t a damn thing I can do about it. I don’t know why some people have to be so selfish Maybe I should just go to bed and try to not think about it? But why would I go to bed this early? This sucks, I think I really need to write in a private journal or something instead of writing this here for you brain-dead fuck-tards who don’t give a shit to read.

  • Attempts at blogging

    Ive been wanting to blog about a few things recently, but havent gotten to due to sleep issues, this includes now, when I have just taken melatonin, but we shall see for future dates:

  • Artistic Expression and its impact on society
  • My overall feelings about stuff relating to academics
  • My interactions with people lately due to my abnormality
  • My artistic desires
  • Difference between artistic and egocentric beauty
  • What I like in other people (aka An Expression of My Sexuality)
  • …. I know there was another one… fuck it, im going to bed….yeah… ill post it live and announce it anyway, im too sleepy/groggy feeling to care. Anything else will be addendumed later.
  • Coincidence

    Earlier I was looking over some things about Plato’s Theory of Forms, which includes two seperate worlds, percieved (Giti) and intellectual (Minu). After contemplating the idea for a while it finally hit me that the definition actually fits with GITI (my PIM tool). GITI keeps my records for my world as I percieve it, not how it truely is. I am probably just nuts, if so, please just ignore me.

  • Cose Della Vita

    Sono umane situazioni
    Quei momenti fra di noi
    I distacchi ed i ritorni
    Da capirci niente poi
    Gia come vedi
    Sto pensando a te…si..da un po’
    They’re just human contradictions
    Feeling happy feeling sad
    These emotional transitions
    All the memories we’ve had
    Yes, you know it’s true
    I just can’t stop thinking of you
    No I just can’t pretend
    All the time we spent could die
    Wanna feel it again
    All the love we felt then
    Confinanti di cuore solo che ognuno sta
    Dietro gli steccati degli orgogli suoi
    Sto pensando a te
    Sto pensando a noi
    Sono cose della vita
    Vanno prese un po’ cosi
    Some for worse and some for better
    But through it all we’ve come so far
    Gia… come vedi
    Io sto ancora in piedi perche
    Sono umani tutti i sogni miei
    Con le mani io li prenderei, si perchè
    What’s life without a dream to hold??
    Take my hand and never let me go
    It’s part of life together
    But what future does it hold??
    Sono cose della vita
    Ma la vita poi dov’e
    Yes, you know it’s true
    I just can’t stop thinking of you
    Questa notte che passa piano accanto a me
    Cerco di affrontarla, afferrarla
    If our hearts miss a beat
    Or get lost like a ship at sea
    I wanna remember, I can never forget
    Can’t stop thinking of you
    Sto pensando a noi
    Can’t stop thinking of you
    Can’t stop
    -Tina Turner and Eros Ramazotti

  • Happy New Year

  • Almost forgot something…..

  • Barnard Lab Nazi

    Why is it that immediately after a blog entry from this lab I always find something else to say because of an event or conversation or something that occurs? Maybe I just have bad timing.
    Anyway…. I just met the Barnard Lab Nazi. This 5′ tall chick with red hair just came through the lab and began pretty much shouting her reminded of lab rules across the room, just when I thought the campus was relaxed I found the campus’s loudest bitch. Some people just know how to ruin a mood.
