k i fucked my computer over real bad

So, i was throwing my tin of snus from my chair onto my desk today and spilled a half full bottle of arizona iced tea onto my computer and now it's basically completely unresponsive, it won't power on or even do anything at all. So, i wouldn't expect myself to be posting for a week or two probably, i'm actually on nick st. jeans computer writing this right now, but i have to send mine to dell to get repaired or replaced and it's going to cost me anywhere from 200 to 550 dollars, which blows really badly, and i won't have a computer for probably like 10 days. So, this is goodbye for a while unless i get something really sick to write about and decide to go on someone elses computer to do it. Later.

i'm so jealous of my cat

So, i was petting my cat earlier today, he's pretty awesome and exceptionally soft as far as cats are concerned (possibly the softest cat i've ever known) when i realized how awesome of a life cats have. I got on the ol' wikapedia there and did some research and i discovered that domestic cats can sleep up to 20 out of every 24 hours. Idunno about you, but that sounds pretty fucking sweet, they have no responsibilities, they don't have to put up with any bullshit from like, parents, professors, girlfriends, ok, so they can never have sex, but that wouldn't really be a huge loss for me anyways so either way i win. My cat literally sleeps all day until he's hungry the he gets up and gets something to eat then goes directly back to sleep. Also, people enjoy petting them which i would imagine feels incredibly good for a cat. If reincarnation is real i really hope i come back as a cat, man that would be sweet.

philosophical stuff...

So, i've never really shared this with the world, but i've always been kind of interested in philosophy, i actually took the liberty to declare myself (and by declare i mean tell my advisor) a philosophy minor at assumption college this semester, i mean, i'm no zach tavlin but i've always just thought it was kinda neat. So, introductions aside, onto this blog post (worst transition ever... suck it). So, (going for the world record in times said "so" this post) for reasons i don't really want to discuss i've been pretty interested in the concept of the universe evening itself out, some people would call it karma, kind of a cause and effect type relationship with the actions a person makes and the kind of luck or things that come their way (not really sure if this is even an actual philosophy thing, hopefully zach tavlin will read this and set me straight, i'm sure he will). So, i got on the ol' google there recently and just kinda started reading as much about it as i could. My findings were actually not all that interesting, and while thinking about what to write in the coming sections of this post i'm kind of drawing a blank on what i want to say that will actually be interesting. I found this one dude who i don't know exactly what his credibility is but he claims that most people's view of karma (corey lasko is actually a huge believer in karma for a fun fact) is wrong because they believe that karma is sort of a force that evens out the universe, but he contends that karma is based solely on the action that is committed therefore there is no cause and effect relationship it's simply an action. For example, he says that an example of bad karma would be cheating or stealing, the conventional view would be that because someone cheats or steals bad luck will come their way, this guy says that the action is a punishment within itself. The point he ends up getting to is that karma is really an issue of morality as opposed to a greater force that governs the universe and rewards the good and punishes the bad. His idea is that karma is something that a person feels within themselves for any action they commit such as the joy of doing a good action or a feeling of guilt from doing something bad. So according to him it's more about the intention of an action rather than the action itself that is meaningful.

Well, this is already my longest post ever, so i guess now that i've completely explained the theory of some guy who no one has ever heard of i'll get on to my opinion. I actually have to admit that i kind of agree with this dude. The notion of karma has always been something that i haven't exactly believed in. While i do believe in some sort of higher being or force (god or whatever) i don't believe that this force is powerful enough to punish or reward every single little action that anyone commits ever (that's alot of actions man). But i do believe that every person is aware of the actions they commit and their consequences and that they feel the impact of those actions inside themselves, which i think is kind of what that guy is saying. Although it may be weird coming from me, a person who most believe to be a huge asshole and not really have any regard for humanity, i actually always have tried to live my life well and although i may be mean to people at times (alot of the time) i can truthfully say that whatever action i take i try to not cause harm to other people and i feel a pretty substantial amount of guilt when i do something. Example: last semester at school in my music class we had a homework assignment that i didn't do, i figured the professor wouldn't actually grade it etc. whatever. The class after we handed it in the professor approached me and told me there was an assignment that had no name on it and asked me if it was mine, i told her that it was in fact mine and i ended up getting an A on the assignment despite having done no work. Now, i must admit that the guilt of that has kind of subsided at this point, but i felt like shit about it, i knew that someone had done that assignment and forgot to put their name on it got a zero and i got an A and i felt shitty about that (hopefully no one from assumption reads this and gets me kicked out of school). But the point is, everyone knows deep down if they've wronged someone, there doesn't need to be a greater force to keep things in order, at least that's my take on it. So, kinda got away from philosophy stuff (if i was ever actually on it?) and onto my own ramblings but ya, longest post i've ever made if anyone reads this i hope they enjoy it. i'm out.

so ya, i never really know what to title stuff

K so, i know i haven't really updated in forever and i was planning on updating as much as i could this summer and i definitely didn't really do that so i apologize for that, but i really have just been going through some annoying stuff in my life lately and haven't really felt like writing in here. I've actually thought of some good stuff to write about and hopefully i'll get into some of that in the coming days and hopefully i can be as stupidly funny as i think i've been in past posts. So ya, i'm going back to school on sunday so hopefully after that updates will be frequent, i'm really all about keeping my like three or four (well, maybe at least four or five) readers happy, so hopefully i can get on that. Later.
