Kawarmi stuff
I like naruto, and I just now figured out an awesome funny mental picture. Imagine yourself being punched by naruto, then do that substitution technique with naruto as he punches you.
"Hey Naruto! STOP HITTING YOURSELF, STOP HITTING YOURSELF."
Oh, yeah.
just so you know, I was grounded a while back, so the updates will be lacking until a week after this thursday. stoopid science homework.... I will end it.

A Quote
I sometimes get really annoyed with people that think their idiots because they can't do something someone else can, or because they don't know the answer hen someone else does. To these people I respond with a quote I made, and I think that it wouldn't hurt to try and listen to my ramblings.
Nobody knows everything, but everybody knows something.
If you think you are an idiot, or that your life is a failure because you can't learn everything, or that you can't beat someone else at something, then you have proven that you in fact are not an idiot. It's the thought that counts, right? So if you think you're an idiot, then that is a stupid thought. Stupid thoughts don't make you stupid. Nobody is stupid. Ever. Not even the mentally retarded people. They just think differently. If everyone thought exactly the same way, then yes, there would be idiots, and stupid people. But no one thinks exactly the same. Therefore, there is no such thing as stupidity. The only thing that I can think of that exists and is the closest to stupidity, is arrogance. If you believe that someone is below you, even if you proved it, does not mean that you are indeed better. You outdid them. that's it. The human condition is that we learn from our mistakes, and take that into account every time we are faced with the same situation. The very fact that humans can learn, means that idiocy is not possible. Every person on the planet is driven to make themselves better. The only difference between the people that think they're idiots or stupid, and everyone else, is their goals. If you have no goals, then you have no hopes, no dreams, you have already given in to your belief that there is nothing you can do about your situation. That's wrong. There is always something that you can do to help someone. If you stop believing you are an idiot, then the hard part is over. the easy part is setting a goal that you can achieve. Not too easy, but one that you can still achieve. Then, next time, raise the bar a little higher, and higher. In the words of St Francis of Assisi; Start by doing what is necessary. Then do what is possible. Suddenly you are doing the impossible.
I can go on, but I choose not too. If you think you're an idiot, and you are reading this, then you have already completed your first goal. reading my ramble. Now go set higher goals for yourself. Ace the next test, or get your homework done for a week. Just remember, sometimes it's a good thing not to see the big picture, because the big picture can be daunting. Always do all of your homework, sounds a little much, but if you think of it more as just doing your homework once a day, it gets much smaller.
If this has helped anyone, then I have completed my goal as well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peace Out, and have fun.

Some Introduction
I have been trying to learn C programming for a couple of years now, and I finally got a book called: The Elements of Programming Style. Now, in my limited experience, elements are the most simple bonds imaginable. So you can imagine my surprise when the first thing in the introduction is:
Consider the program fragment
DO 14 I=1 , N
DO 14 J=1 , N
14 V(I,J) = (I/J) * (J/I)
(Here comes the really screwed up part)
A modest familiarity with Fortran tells us that this doubly nested DO loop assigns something to each element of an N by N matrix V.
WHAT THE HELL!!! THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE AN INTRODUCTION!!!! HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO UNDERSTAND THIS RIGHT AWAY?!!!
And this concludes my rant for today. thank you for reading.

Random
yeha, I was just listening to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpiEEl_5pmA# and I thought, has anyone actually patented the wheel yet? I mean even though its been around for a long time, I'm pretty sure it came before the patent office.
Your question of the day; Has anyone patented the wheel?
All responses welcome, except those that inflict physical pain

My Anti Container Theory
right, well I couldn't sleep at all on Tuesday night (I think I have insomnia issues) but while I was there, doing nothing, I remembered my Anti Container theory.
Theory:
If the entire universe was in a container, except a small object, where would you have to be to be considered inside the container? Most of you would just think that "you said the universe was in the bottle, so the universe would be considered in the container" BUT... this theory is all about the perspective. if there is more space in the container, then is it really inside the container, or is it YOU who are in the container. So, if you buy a bottle of pop, is the pop inside the container, or are you inside the container, and is the pop the only thing NOT in the container?
I came up with this during math class.
What else was I going to do, learn?

Hell Explained
yeah, yeah I know it hasn't been that long since my last blog (an hour, maybe) but I just found something too good to wait
HELL EXPLAINED BY CHEMISTRY STUDENT
The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid term.
The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well :
Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today.
Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:
1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell,then the temperature an pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you," and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."
THIS STUDENT RECEIVED AN A+.

First Blog
Well, yeah this is my first blog. Ever. I have to blame Angelz On Edge for making me do this spur of the moment blog 'cause I have very bad impulse control. Good spelling, but bad impulses. Anyway, today is the last Saturday of march break (Aw crap) school starts this Monday (even crappier) then we get our interim reports (WHEN WILL THE INHUMANITY END?) but on the bright side, it's all countered by an early easter. So it's all good, as long as there is no work at school (I wish) but at least i have a 99% in my first period, compare that to my usual grades of 50-67 and you've got yourself one crazy average. Of course, the class is Intro to Computer Science so as long as I can use a computer and type (this is all typing for those who don't know) I am guaranteed an awesome grade.
Before I go, the unwitting engineer of this blog can be located at her blog, so don't be lazy and check it out.
