I was bored, so I started analyzing my past philosophies
one of them was transcendentalism
for those of you who don't know, it is the idea that you should "transcend" or rise above the circumstances of a situation to make the best decisions.
Sounds like a good idea, right?
keeps you from making enemies
keeps you happy and what not.
However, I also used to feel really distant from people.
At the time I wasn't sure if it was just by paranoia of them or what.
But it wasn't until lately that I started to connect it with the philosophy of transcendentalism.
I used to think it should be used for everything to find a solution for any problem.
But now I'd argue that's not true.
It's effective when you're listening to someone's problem and being objective,
although it should not be used, in my opinion, to solve your own problems.
You could debate wither or not being omnipotent is good or not, but you should experience life and indulge yourself in the struggles that present themselves in front of you.
Do it with gusto!
Fiery passion!
Emotion!
carry the experiences with you in your consciousness, and with each experience gain a bit more of who you truly are until you achieve full self actualization!
I don't know about you guys, but nothing pisses me off more (and I am quite difficult to piss off or even anger) than not knowing how I would react in a situation.
Anyway, food for thought,
have a lovely life.

Anime, that's my shit
So yeah, there's been a lot of good animes I've been watching recently.
Just finished Steins;Gate... thoughts on that... ERMAHGERD It is honestly one of the best animes I've seen in awhile, It's a bit predictable with it's foreshadowing in some parts, but the plot and ending are absolutely amazing.
Basic premise: A mad Scientist (as he calls himself, really he's just a nerd in a labcoat... well... he does invent stuff.. huh) ends up making a time machine out of a tv his landlord owns, a microwave, and a cell phone. But this isn't any ordinary time machine, it doesn't send people back in time... it just turns them into green jello... It can only send back text messages, but the text messages they do send end up changing the present they're in. I'll stop there just because you should just go watch it =.=
Blue Exorcist (a.k.a. Ao No Exorcist): Pretty good, it has a mix of childish antics, dark brooding moments, and it's mostly based off religious shit, I'm always excited to see that a new episode came out... Well, dubbed, I'll wait for dubbed... not a big fan of subbed.
which brings me to my third anime
Amnesia: This is a new anime even for the japs, and I know I just said I don't like subbed, but this is WORTH IT. So far from what i've gathered in the 6 episodes I've watched, this little demon kid that no one can see bumped into the soul of this girl and evidently they became intertwined and now only she can see him. A side effect of this though is she lost all her memories of everyone. And every once in awhile she'll wake up on august 1 and a different guy comes by and says that he is her boyfriend... there are 5 but she's only been to 3 different worlds where she's dated 2 of them so far. So either she's tripping on balls and constantly gets roofied and all these guys are punking her or what, I still have high expectations for this anime.

Update
Güten tag!
Hey guys!
Sorry I haven't updated in awhile... nothing has really happened that I felt was update worthy : |
Well... atleast not until this week... and a bit of last week..
Um... let's go in chronological order
Smoked some herbal shit with some friends, I didn't feel much of an effect but who cares, I'm experimenting!
I got my drivers license on friday! :D woot woot and what not
Also one of my friends has been very adamant about me asking a lady friend of mine out
And I did intend to do it... eventually, But when I was busy getting my license he told her that I'd ask her out on monday... Yeah no pressure <.<
So I had to find a nice way to make it over the top, random and ostentatious... Go big or go home.
I ended up doing it on teusday and it was really more like rape... Alright, start scenario
(me) (otherfriend) (lady friend) my other friend gets up and runs away like lady friend has the plague, then salutes me. so now it's (me) (lady friend), so I grab the chair she's sitting in and scoot it right next to mine and put my arm around her.
Me: "So, how ya doing?"
Lady friend: and with an.. awkward... happyish smile thingy she goes, "I'm alright."
Me: "Sooo.... Wanna go out?"
Lady friend: "Suree"
2nd friend: "That was so palely awkward"
So much for ostentatious.
Anyway, we're going out now... I guess... doesn't really feel like it, but oh well, maybe it'll change in time.
Today is/was valentines day... Happy valentines day!
I couldn't really get Lady friend anything... I felt really bad... so I wrote her a hand written note... those are still cool, right? Meh, I saw her read it across the class room (Yeah, level 92 stalker right here) she giggled twice so... score? Anyway, just thought I should put that on here... hope you guys/gals are enjoying yourselves :D
