Cigarette Threesome

Ok so I have been reading a lot of blogs and just can't help but notice the personal nature that some of them have taken on. I like that about blogs. What do you like about them? It is so great to be able to sit down and plow through other people's thoughts. I can say, "Oh what a shallow person you are!", or I can say,"How did you ever make it through high school being such an idiot?" Here is a real good one, "Way to work out your social problems through writing an online core paper that you have called a blog entry!" Should we hold the same ethical standards in our online personality as in real life? Maybe if this was one in the medical field and we were comparing cancer cure test studies, but for now lets have a blast! We can never tell when people are being honest anyway. This could be a lot of fun if you were totally anonymous but hey lets face it, this is for a class. There are also computer hackers that could probably figure it out too. Maybe they will come to your house. When you have a blog that can be about whatever you want what should we write about? I am going to write about smoking cigarettes right now.

I quit smoking all summer and now here I am smoking again. "Dam you Philip Morris! R.J. Reynolds go to hell!" I think that it is really funny how tobacco companies have little quit smoking informative packets wrapped underneath the cellophane. Its like you have to open the pack to get to them. There is no other reason to open a pack of cigarettes unless you are gonna start smoking them. I think marketing and add wizards study more psychology and behaviorism than teachers and pschologists put together. Why? Because they make more money. They act like they are trying to inform the public, "Quitting smoking now greatly reduces your health risks." Hey thanks alot Einstien you are a fucking genious, way to solve the world's problems. You are as informative as CNN. I just think that money is the root of most evil. It doesn't cost anything to masterbate!

Joe Camel, the Marlboro Man, and the Zig Zag Man are all probably having a threesome in an expensive hotel that I helped pay for. You can put that on Post Secret.

Peace

Am I the only one?

Am I the only one who thinks it is a huge stress out to students to give them a test or quiz at the end of a class period? I get so nervous when I have to sit and wait while the teacher is trying to teach the class. Paying attention should be the first priority, but that is deferred when you have to worry about the upcoming part of your grade. Sometimes I will sit and study a little extra instead of just listening but who wouldn't? I am going to be a teacher, and dam it I am going to give my quizes and tests first thing so that my students don't waist time studying or cramming before hand. I am not trying to rip on educators out there but am simply stating my opinion. This has happened to me like 5 times this semester and it is drivin me nuts.

EVIL

What is evil? How can we describe something that is not tangible? It is hard to come up with a definition of this word because there are so many different viewpoints that try to interpret what it really is. There are a lot of questions that we can ask that help us get a better grasp on this abstract noun. Evil is not like Communism or Catholicism, we can not draw a picture of evil. I know that my idea of evil is usually brought on by a sin. I feel guilt when I do evil. Evil is very real to me, like the black in black and white. I think that evil is the opposite of good and it has to be done by a person. Some people can do evil without knowing it, I am sure that Hitler saw nothing wrong with what he did. I think that evil is hard to define, but it is necessary in the world.

Get it Done

I am engaged in a battle with my list of assignments. It is very slow going. Can anyone relate? My reward is feeling accomplished when I cross one more off my list. Everyone knows that around the third week of school the tests come. Due dates awake from their comas and become a part of conscious reality. That is all I can think about and that our teacher's blog says fuck in it.
