Because I'm Indecisive

I am an indecisive person.
Therefore, instead of posting pictures I would normally put on facebook, I have decided to post them onto Flickr. I don't know the reason why I have done this, but it seems that this is a better place for pictures to be.

What Happens When An Irresistable Force Meets An Immovable Object

What does happen?

Whilst watching a few tennis matches of the recently completed Aussie Open (Australian Open), I was pondering this statement. While I’m not going to study philosophy in college, this is something you should eventually consider in your life. I’m 100% sure that you will encounter this philosophy embodied in a real life situation.
Each side has relatively the same theory. This is, to be quite blatant, a comparison of things that are perpetual. But what is pertinent about this is how to confront this situation. Eventually, this is going to end with an impasse, neither can conquer the other. They are essentially the same thing. In the heart of this statement is the concept that they will not stop, nor will they start. With neither unable to decisively conquer the other, it begs the question as to how to remedy the situation.
But this also brings up the idea of “What if?!”. As in, what if the irresistible object became a force, and the immovable object became a force. Would they epitomize the inherent characteristics of their previous states, or would they take on new characteristics?
Either way, it wouldn’t matter. Each of these two notions equals itself and leaves the situation where it began, fundamentally nowhere, where it began.

Coffee Makes Me Paranoid

Coffee makes me paranoid.
I used to get a really big lift out of drinking a cup of coffee. My general coffee choice is Starbucks, in basically any form. I had some Dunkin Donuts at the Model United Nations Conference, and it was fairly good, but not Starbucks.

What I've noticed is that coffee has almost stopped having an effect. Its not an addiction, but its becoming a bad habit. What is has begun to do though is make me paranoid and unable to focus too well.

Writer’s Block, Or Not

Everyone has experienced this feeling, I’m sure of it. You have this idea that has been bouncing around in your head all day or possibly not all day, but for a considerable amount of time. But when you sit down (or stand or lie down or however you like to write things), you cannot seem to find the words to express your ideas or feelings. I encounter this feeling daily. Generally multiple times everyday. The most common way to exemplify this is in this blog itself.
I generally start writing a beginning sentence or two with a pretty good idea of what I’m going to shout to the internet what my ideas are. But, some how, whenever I finish each blog post, I feel unfulfilled. It is as if you imagine building the city on a hill, but only build a small village, on a rise in the grass. It is comparable to envisioning and hoping for something spectacular and amazing to be developed with a feasible chance, but it falling short. In a sense, this is a buzzkill. My life has become full of situations where I feel like I visualize something that is a huge success, but it turns out successful, only to a certain degree. While this has gotten relatively far in life, I’d like to do better, wouldn’t you concur?
I can’t decide if this is writers block, or the basic and constant inability to express my thoughts on a page. When I speak and voice my opinion, it is generally (in my opinion), what I think and what I want to say. But what one says and what one writes, are two different things. It is the contrast of these two different methods of communication, where I find my struggle. My inability to transfer my thoughts to the page or to the greatest extent express the fledgling ideas that are enveloping my overall thought process is my most arduous struggle of late. Thank you for reading this, although this seems like a stream of conscious, in my head, this was well organized, well voiced, grammatically correct, witty, clever, and utilized large words. But alas, this is not to be, there are larger things in life.

(This is how I feel)

My Current Favorite Playlist

Don’t judge me for my taste of music, some have classified as hopelessly romantic or feminine, but I defend it with the theory that I enjoy mainstream music but I like to listen to music that evokes emotion.
