Greetings,
Well, tonight I've been busy making flashcards for the suffixes in my medical terminaology class. While doing that I was listening to the O'Riely cd of the piano covers for Radiohead tracks. I listened to it 3 times in a row & enjoyed it very much. Hope all is well on your side of the screen.

Yep... I try to remain positive about life. I honestly think we have only a little say over where we are supposed to be in life and I generally think there is always a reason or a lesson to be learned when things don't go the way we want. Of course, it's hard to see the reasons while living in the present, which can make life difficult at times. I hate the fact that I couldn't go to college right after high school. But if I had, god knows what I would have majored in or where I would currently be in my life. I am where and who am now because of every little thing that has happened since then. And if I had gone to college then, who knows where I would be in my life. And there are a lot of my people near and dear to me that I never would have met! So, even though I am 33 and still struggling with what to be when I grow up, I have a life I usually love because of my inability to go to college earlier. Anyways... that's usually my theory about things that happen in life... good or bad.
One thing I don't like about Orlando is their lack of veg things. Good veg foods can be found in ethnic restaurants, but other than that veg food are usually crappy for you here. I don't think there is any place here that has something like a tofu scramble even though we do sometimes make it at home. I really tink there's a niche here that needs to be filled. Unfortunately I don't have the money to fill that veg void here! Being veg definitely has become trendy. Whatever floats their boat I suppose!
It's funny how you can be influenced mentally by what you read or watch. I'm sure your reading has put you in a weird place! We spent a couple of months watching an anime series called Neon Genesis. On the surface, it was just a neat series about the near future and science and the earth being attcked. But there was so much more to it that I still don't even get. There were a lot of religious references, some Christian (which I am most familiar with) and others from many different religions or philosophies. I still want to look stuff up when I have a chance and watch some of it again so I can get what i missed the first time. When we finished watching it (I think it's 26 half hours and then 2 movies), my mind was in a blur. It was something that made life seem a little surreal for a while (as much as I hate the way the word is so overused now). Personally I love it when tings change my perspective, even if only temporarily because I think they do have lasting effects on some level.
I wonder what they're going to do if the Pope ends up brain dead and in a coma. I wonder if they would kep him hooked up to life support for 15 years. "They" say that life is life and as long as you are living, everything should be done to keep the person alive. We actually had a quasi-discussion about that in my humanities class about how God would be angry if someone was taken off of life support. My mom knowingly said one night that "God had already called her home" (her being Terri Schiavo). I wonder if God wouldn't be angrier with our human meddling over science nowadays. Of course, I don't believe in God with a capital G... not like I was raised to believe. But it shut the puritans in my class up.... and there are many of them.
Anyways, we are out of town fo the weekend. Going to Gainesville to see some friends and do some biking! Hope you have a fabulous weekend!
Holy wordiness! I warned ya!
