Obama's approval rating higher than Reagan and... →

I like most things with philosophical life messages so yeah it’s my type of book. it makes me want to be a buddhist lol well not really I just agree with some of their teachings. There is no better way to go into the new year than...

Brother 1: Oh yeah, I saw this one guy with no arms or legs. He was super beast.
Brother 2: He had no armor legs?
Brother 1: What the fuck! No! Arm OR legs!
Brother 2: I thought you were talking about runescape. [laughs]
Brother 1: No. He was super beast. He was swimming.
Brother 2: How the fuck was he swimming!? [continues laughing]
Brother 1: He WAS swimming! I don't know how he did it. It was from a video I saw at school!
Brother 2: laughs hysterically! How is it possible for someone without arms or legs to SWIM!?
Brother 1: I don't know. He was in the water flapping his shoulders!

My brother is making fun of me for pronouncing coupons wrong. I pronounce it CUEpons. I don’t know why I do it. I think I just like emphasizing the COU part by pronouncing it as CUE instead of COO. I like the hard sound of it I guess :]

Anyways, I’m done for the day. I’ll start Siddhartha tomorrow and probably...

Sometimes I just want to sit and talk with someone. Talk. Analyze. Talk some more. Talk about everything. Life. People. Life. Ideas. Reasons. Frustrations. Senseless talk. If only there was more than twenty-four hours in a day.

plans. go to church with my aunt and her family despite my agnostic beliefs. there’s nothing wrong with that: going to church despite skepticism. I think of it this way if you’re against something you should at least know what it’s about. after that I’m going to my aunt’s house to celebrate Christmas with her and her family. Their love and company is very much...

2. I really want to thrift not because it’s trendy but because I like cheap, especially if something cheap looks nice.
3. I was a huge fan of Britney Spears, Shakira,...
