Well it's about time...

I was browsing Reddit yesterday when I came across a great quote, one everyone should remember when they get mad at something dumb or take stuff to seriously. "Just remember we're just a bunch of evolved monkeys living on an organic rock flying through the universe." It really is quite true and when you think about it funny. It's people who think like that that I admire, people who can bite there tongues when they have to and aren't easily offended. A big problem we face as a society is political correctness, and it's a joke, but that's enough ranting for today.

Well I really have to talk about Skyrim

As exciting as the blog prompt is today it's been 5 days since Skyrim has been out and I must say. The graphics in this game are so life like, you want to see the future of technology and games, look no further. Let's not forget the music, I'm not one for all that instrumental music and whatnot but really, the music is beautiful and really sets up a great atmosphere. Then theres the open world, do what you want, become friends with who you want, I love it. This was really the first game released in my lifetime I was this excited for, and up to now its really outlived and out done the hype. It's better then I ever could have immagined. I suppose that right there is a recipe for a state of happiness and a great game, because that is how I feel!

Starling

Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news but this was nothing more than a group of birds who flew in formation. And like any movie, the dramatic music and nature filled camera shots simply add hype that if you were there wouldnt have noticed. You would have probably been more terrified than mystified. As for metaphors I see none, it was just a flock of birds, flying around, no symbolic or metaphorical meanings here. I could show you a few videos of my cat rolling around, add some music and a few slow motion shots and I have a video that's way more dramatic and theatrical then it really is.

It's one of those days...

I'm hungry, tired, and frankly I dont want to do anything. I know for a fact that everyone has these kinds of days but I'm having one of those weeks. Every day I've gotten up I've had to drag myself out of bed and come to school drowsy and hungry. I don't usually feel better until lunch which might I add is what I'm looking forward to today.

This is quite the gimmick

I find the article rather boring, mainly because the estimated price will be $1000 and because this isn't a technological achievement. Sending a man to the moon, the first PC, curing polio, those are achievements, putting a phone in a shirt I'm sorry to say is just silly. It seems all the new technology coming out these days are just gimmicks and scams, much like the iPhone which is quite laughable. Is putting a phone in a shirt impressive, yes, but is it something that will change the way we live and improve our lifestyle, no I'm afraid not.
