[Ce] Whats that falling from the sky?

 Sigh, i think I'm starting to get air plane phobia.

Twenty-eight people were killed and four people survived a plane crash in stormy weather in Papua New Guinea's remote forests, according to officials.
Maybe this is why they delay plane flights but, are airplanes now limited to only weathers that are good?. Well then wouldn't half the days in the year be unavailable to flights?. Was it just stormy weather or was it a malfunction or faulty driving. Now not to ponder about the past but to move to the future as whats done is done. Or whats happened has happened. I very much admire those that went immediately to aide those inside the plane as without those aiding the measly amount of survivors [4] Would maybe be a 1 or 2.  Really though because of harsh winds and rains an airplane crashed  I mean the people inside where probably sleeping or resting or maybe watching some movies on that plane then BOOM it starts tumbling down. Maybe if the airplane wasn't a small private one somethings might have changed. I question why that happened, many people losing their lives in vain. Of no good reason. And due to further investigation it appears that the other types of airplanes that where of the same model has been grounded. Meaning the only reason that they crashed would have been because that the airplane was faulty as the last line of that link or news report says the designated pilot had 45 years of flying experience. A crash like that doesn't just happen when theres a storm. IF it did i don't think id ever ride a plane again. And til this day i bet those people that died didn't even know what hit them. Lesson to be made don't ride unsafe brands of plane.

[re] Finally

Nice one Kristy:
Yes, I do think it is a good idea, but I don’t think it will last very long. I mean, just think about it. The fast food restaurants are so convenient.
I also agree with you that it is a good idea and also that it wont last long. But people should at least have the self restraint to not go eating the fat stuff. What i believe is that if they don't lie to themselves about eating it and that its good for themselves or that its cheap or. What ever. That they wont be over weight. I don't exactly know why people would even eat till their that fat but some people do. And some people eat to get rid of depression but just a piece of advice. Would you not be more depressed seeing a load of fat in the mirror every morning. Well that's a little mean but you guys understand the idea. Not all people are fat even if their over weight. So maybe i should rephrase that... O wells. And also i don't think that it will last long either. But if it goes on even for just 3 months it might teach people some self restraint. Also it obviously only impacts those people with out much money as tax on foods wouldn't really affect those associated with a lot of money. And also, thanks for pointing out that fast food restaurants are so convenient not that i think its worth it though. Sometimes its just a bunch of lies. After taking chemistry and learning some of the stuff they put in their foods and oils. To manufacture flavors it makes me feel that I'm taking bites of lies as the things your eating aren't always what you expect. Choose wisely on what you eat because the saying " you are what you eat" is totally true. Thanks. 

[Free] Obstacles 2

 So last week with the Internet thingy.. Well it got cleared up or at least i know why now. Its basically glitched and after asking my friend I found out that it wasn't just me. My friend had some disconnection issues also. It might just be a faulty wireless gear. But yes the Internet is back to being "OK" and my complaints aren't really complaints anymore. On the other hand as of now I'm still obstructed by procrastination. If i didn't remember just now I'm pretty sure id have 3 late assignments or 3 assignments undone. So yes trying to hurry up and finish this right now. And since I'm talking about obstacles i should talk about history, and our sophomore research paper. Originally i thought it would easy with Japan and 3 issues from Japan as my topic but apparently there aren't too many major problems in Japan and now Ive gotta find some links or sites for some good topics or facts. As of now research papers aren't exactly my best friends. Any how as all walls are made there are key wholes to sneak past, and in this case ill just blow a whole up for myself to walk through and hope that nothing stands deadly on the other side. Any how Ive got 2 more post to do for English it isn't exactly gonna be hard but hope i finish in time. um, Yup haven't got a topic yet but I'm sure ill think of one  for my response and one for my current event. At least there isn't gonna be a biweekly column next week and good thing its Friday. After a long week finally, some time to rest.

[BW COL]Living with Heart

When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: "If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right." It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: "If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?" And whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.

Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything — all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

-Steve Jobs
   I most certainly think that his quote is correct. Though some parts of his speech i might disagree. Many of it i do agree. I believe as Jobs did that we should follow our hearts cause someday we will die and while facing that event. Well you shouldn't be doing something your heart tells you not to do in the first place. But really when facing death your heart is whats most valuable, like having a final wish to complete, your heart tells you to do that and what not. In reality though not all things can follow that reasoning as not all things you have the capability to change. Some times i wake up and feel like **** but nothing can be changed about that. Things like those occur all the time and even sometimes when it happens repeatedly nothing can be changed cause nothing can be done about it. Here is where i disagree with Jobs when something is out of your power and you know that it should change the thing is many times even if you change something. Something else bad happens.
  If I where to follow this advice to follow my heart i think many things would change. For one I might not even been in school or be in California or even the U.S. right now i don't know what my dream is but. If i do follow this advice many things would be different. What would i learn following this advice? Many things, many things might be a vague answer but for one I'd probably learn to stop procrastinating also to stop being so lax on myself even if its better than being hard core, well at least sometimes it is. Secondly i think i would drop Spanish 3 but for the time being that isn't an option. Currently i feel that I'm watching the grade sink with not much i can do about to prevent it from doing so. Maybe, and if i follow my heart to get into a good college then i must also follow my of dislikes as 3 years of Spanish is recommended or 3 years of any language in that case. But i chose Spanish so i will stick with it to the end.
  Also and i just thought of this now, that I disagree with Jobs also on the fact that some people arent like him to change or maybe sometimes i feel its more like giving up on something half way through. In many cases i like to do something to the utmost brink of success before quitting on it or leaving or dropping it. I like doing things wholeheartedly except maybe for homework. And also this would be my advice in life,  do things wholeheartedly and follow what you think is right. Do them so that you wont regret it and if it turns out you do, then you shouldn't have done it in the first place. Of course that also applies to starting an action and not finishing it. Don't do it if your not aware of the consequences as if your not lucky it will bite you in the ass. Most importantly though do whats right, do what you think is right and think through anything before you do it. A clear mind is a good mind.

[ce] People in Thailand not happy.

Thai land hit by monsoooooon the flooding seen in that video has been going on for 2 months appearently. That flooding o boy. People of Thai land are probably used to it by not but damn I know i always refer to this but, Imagine if that was us being hit by that water. Since we don't exactly have very high elevations to escape to in Alameda. Well you get the point sometimes I feel that our lives suck but, compared to their situation and many others world wide. Its actually a lot better. I'm just getting worried at how many crisis have been happening recently monsoons, typhoons, many many other things. Very scary I think living in such a place with a pretty predictable weathering is rather nice. Too nice actually its been spoiling people I think. Just a few days ago when it was raining you could hear all the complaining. Yup we are totally spoiled with good weather we have nice afternoons with a big bright sun while other people have floods, and droughts. Exadurated heating from a raging sun. Many of other places don't get to have leasure like us. Pretty fortunate huh so I think we should think positive even if its raining we should stop complaining. And we should live life like no tomorrow cause who knows when disaster will come it can come at the middle of the night when your sleeping. and you wouldn't know u might not survive it. DON'T think i'm cursing you i'm just trying to be realistic and say anything could happen. 

[re] Japan getting destroyed

From Gendarme  
That’s another disaster in Japan again! How can so many attacks come into Japan, did they do something wrong? 
 I too believe that Japan doesn't deserve this even if they kill whales and don't moderate their nuclear power plants and pollute the water with the power plants blowing up. It was totally out of their control that so many things happened but is it Karma? Maybe mother nature dislikes Japan for killing off her whales. I'm not sure what the situation is but luckily not many people died? Yes luckily the manga and anime creator/ director/ writers didn't get injured cause a week with out them is a week with out a new exciting episode or chapter. Which would be sad. It would also be sad if one of their stories or shows ended due to anonymous reasons and didn't finish cause some of them really need a good ending that i don't think anyone else can write better besides themselves.
  But yes disaster seems to befall them more than any other place at the moment and its really unfortunate. Good thing for us though that it isn't happening to us but recently there has been some minor earth quakes. Nothing to worry about but, yeah i wouldn't want to be the person stuck in a typhoon or hit by big earthquakes and floods and storms and tsunamis. Hey where also at water level lets hope nothing happens too soon. Yup we wouldn't want to be that country that most people are pitying. Like over years Americas always been the country to help others especially programs and groups like Unicef and red cross. And since we can we help but if we couldn't... I wouldn't imagine there would be a knight in shining armor to rescue or save us.

[free]The obstacle.

   So... Not in the best mood right now actually pretty pissed off at my ****ty Internet service why? cause in almost every other site that requires a good connection, it disconnects. To put it simply right now.. A school computer is better than mine. Pretty bad huh. I'm actually struggling with even typing this quick paragraph trying to finish as fast as i can. How do i over come this obstacle? I tried calling com cast and yelling at them but apparently they didn't fix it. I hope this gets better or my long waited week end will be worse than a week at school. for example if I'm trying to watch something on YouTube it would freeze or stop loading every 5 seconds and when it 5 seconds of it not being frozen is buffering it loads SOOOO slow its unbelievable? At this point i regret switching from at&t actually it might just be my houses issue. But however the cause this never happened when i had at&t so. Mhm. Pretty disappointed right now.
  I feel kinda bad just talking about Com Cast though but seriously its like they have issues every time it rains. It isn't the first time this has happened and the last time took them around a week to fix which sucks. I like how this disproves their ads about being so fast and so good. The television shows under com cast aren't the best either i personally would prefer direct TV much more shows. Not telling you guys not to buy services from com cast I'm just saying WHY ME ? That this is happening. Why did my sister want to switch to com cast instead of at&t plus direct TV is a mystery i will never understand. I complain. like a little complainer. bye.
