Did I really leave my Nikon D3100 battery on the floor of my room before beginning my trek to Connecticut? Yes, that was me.

Win for Connecticut! They recycle their bottles and I totally dig that.

Hmm… this picture is from when @Lizface, Joe, & I went to Philadelphia. This was maybe two or three weeks ago. We were on a mission for falafels from Maoz<3 They were delicious & well worth my car overheating.

Colour. A truly amazing thing. Not many things can spark such a genuine reaction as colours do. I was grocery shopping, something I enjoy doing, when I came upon these key limes. There is something oddly aesthetically pleasing about citrus fruits. I don’t know what it was about these particular key limes, but they reminded me of my youth. 

SO! I have started a new blog because I want a… ‘tabula rasa’. I want to make sure that I am living life the way I want to be living it. It’s so easy to get sucked into day to day happenings and forget to have fun. Once you make something a habit, it becomes a life style. That means that I am going to make it a habit, to blog about myself having fun, so that I will live a fun life. A life, that I can look back on and say “That was cool”. Pleeease let it work this time!

National Geographic:

Seven hundred and fifty light-years from Earth, a young, sunlike star has been found with jets that blast epic quantities of water into interstellar space, shooting out droplets that move faster than a speeding bullet.

The discovery suggests that protostars may be seeding the universe with water. These stellar embryos shoot jets of material from their north and south poles as their growth is fed by infalling dust that circles the bodies in vast disks.

“If we picture these jets as giant hoses and the water droplets as bullets, the amount shooting out equals a hundred million times the water flowing through the Amazon River every second,” said Lars Kristensen, a postdoctoral astronomer at Leiden University in the Netherlands.

[…]

The water-jet phenomenon seen in Perseus is “probably a short-lived phase all protostars go through,” Kristensen said.

“But if we have enough of these sprinklers going off throughout the galaxy—this starts to become interesting on many levels.”

"Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing: the last of human freedoms to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way."

Sigh

I wish I led a fascinating life.

Yesterday, a silly little trip to Philly turned into a crazy adventure when Jill’s car began to overheat. At a possible siting of steam, we pulled over. Luckily a Seven Eleven was there to provide us with coolant, steering fluid, and oil. We re-parked the car and took a walk down South Street….

This is the condom with teeth. It is a condom specifically made to protect women from rape. It is inserted like a tampon, and won’t hurt the girl, only her attacker. When the man thrusts into her, the condom clasps down and can only be removed surgically. It was invented by South African doctor Dr. Sonnet Ehlers, and it was inspired when the Dr. treated a rape victim who said sadly, ‘If only i had teeth down there.’ The condom is being given out in South Africa, and to women in the military.

Ah, I have started a new job & procrastinated loads of homework. I am halfway through three research papers and have about 100 algebra problems waiting for me. I am having trouble seeing past a lot of the negativity this world has been spewing, but I am finding solace in things that I find aesthetically pleasing. Speaking of which, I just purchased a shirt that says make art not war. How fitting! No pun intended. If I thought that after high school was spring cleaning for friendships, this is like encountering a black hole vacuum. People just seem so questionable. Many seem out to attack or undermine, and some seem spiteful. I’ve encountered a few disgusting behaviors and I’ve tried to counteract them. I’ll explain later. Anyway, I just want to be surrounded by genuine people with clean energy.

"Amy [Poehler] was in the middle of some such nonsense with Seth Meyers across the table, and she did something vulgar as a joke. I can’t remember what it was exactly, except it was dirty and loud and ‘unladylike.’
Jimmy Fallon, who was arguably the star of the show at the time, turned to her and in a faux-squeamish voice said, ‘Stop that! It’s not cute! I don’t like it.’
Amy dropped what she was doing, went black in the eyes for a second, and wheeled around on him. ‘I don’t fucking care if you like it.’ Jimmy was visibly startled. Amy went right back to enjoying her ridiculous bit. I should make it clear that Jimmy and Amy are very good friends and there was never any real beef between them. (Insert penis joke here.)
With that exchange, a comic shift took place. Amy made it clear that she wasn’t there to be cute. She wasn’t there to play wives and girlfriends in the boys’ scenes. She was there to do what she wanted to do and she did not fucking care if you like it."
