Peace & Love
So today I open my email, and little to my surprise, I discover a whole new horde of college emails. As usual, I moved them all to my college folder (thanks for the suggestion...."theluckyone" hahah). Anyway I ignored most of them, like the one from Dickinson University (I mean come ON; it has the word "dick" right in it's name!), but I did actually end up opening one, from Loyola College in Chicage. I was slightly interested in this college, having known a close friend's brother attended school there. Anyway, I registered to receive more information about Loyola and took a quiz about my learning style. Apparently I'm a visual learner. I believe that, and now I'm feeling very visual. I think I'm just going to post pictures to convey the central theme of this blog entry. It'll be more abstract than usual, but it'll be fun :)
Soy un perdedor!
Wow. It has been quite a long time since I've last posted! To be honest, I just wasn't feeling inspired the last few times I've been in style. But right now, I'm listening to the song Loser, by Beck. It is FANTASTIC!!!

Listen to it right now!! Look, I even made it easier for you by embedding a player into my blog! Less clicks for you, so you have no excuse! Ha, DLackey moment. Probably not nearly as good though. Anyway, I love this song. If you look up the lyrics, you can see they're absolutely crazy; not at all logical. Some may argue that the song has no meaning because of this. But I think they couldn't be more wrong! First of all, the song contains the line "Soy un perdedor." ("I'm a Loser") I'm a huge fan of Spanish, so that automatically makes this song excellent! But besides that, this song really has such an original sound. And the comical lyrics really just make it. When you listen to the words, you just have to think to yourself, "Damn!! What drugs was this kid on when he wrote this?? I need to fucking try some of that shit out!!" haha
Anyway, sorry if I'm boring you! But on the subject of perdedores, I've just been thinking, and realizing the fact that everyone in the world is a "loser" to at least one other person. And when I say loser, I mean that person has a negative opinion of you. All of this brought to me the shocking realization that you just can't please everybody. I've really known this all along, but sometimes I forget. Of course, it'd be great to be able to make everyone happy, minimizing jealously, conflict, and hatred, but the bottom line is that that's simply impossible. And you have to learn to live with that. Your happiness cannot depend on other people!
Ha. I have no idea where all these ideas are coming from! And I don't know what ever made me think of these things. Maybe I'm just feeling insightful. I don't really know! Anyway, I really think I should go to bed now! It's one o'clock, and while I love to be awake for in style, I also really should try to get more sleep. I'm falling asleep in school again!
Peace & Love!
