it was an interesting reading, as it went from one person to another.
i will admit i had some trouble trying to focus during reading this because its an awkward format and goes so far off to the right, also it's a little complicated from time to time which also breaks my focus...
i did appreciate the message and intensity of this story and best of all the ending.
it ended so simply after all that reading into a simplistic
"there is no difficulty,he replied; and I agree with you in thinking that nothing more need be said. "
and i will end my blog with that.

cool wHip...
today's class was fun, but i think we had TOO much time to talk about our projects, though it was nice to communicate with my classmates for once.
i do wanna say that i seriously LOVE Beth's view on taking time to just relax and collect your thoughts, i mean it's crazy to me that your body truly makes endorphins and all sorts of chemicals that MAKE you feel happy, who wouldnt want to take time to do something that makes you feel good (and is legal) and re-approach the situation that was making you stressed out.
if more people took a few hours once a week to collect their thoughts and just be, i bet things would be a lot less "lets make a drive-thru, lets take an online class to multi-task, lets find more ways to travel faster' things may slow down and be less stressful....
i appreciate your point of view Beth...rock onnnnnn

just breathhhhhh
i cant thank beth enough for the "bliss" class time we were given.
i was seriously so stressed out and needed a break but would refuse to stop doing homework or staring at a computer screen and force myself to just breath.
i got to come home earlier, and i just sat. i watched some tv, watched a movie, made some popcorn, relaxed.
it was weird, because had we not had the bliss time given, there's no way i would have forced myself on my own to just "do nothing". I got to steal time without my self really knowing i stole :)
if that makes any sense.
stealing time is a strange approach to life, because its not stealing if its your own property, but so often i just give my time and life to school, homework, family, friends etc. and rarely do i just carve out some me time. i mean i OWN my own time after all, dont i?
as far as brainstorming a final project, its not complete yet, i promise i'm thinking, and i'm trying to take some more time to think about it and not my capstone, and purposely steer away from my capstone. i plan to do something different, and personally affect myself and have to show others the outcome.
so we will see....it's still in the making.

....where we gonna go from here.....
when i got the assignment to document time, i couldn't think of much to do with the actual bag, but i was inspired to make short video documenting people with time, and life in general.
the video has people with all different time aspects, either super fast...super slow, etc.
this video made me think and observe a lot about time.
i thought it came out nice, its short and sweet so enjoy :)

tough your taste
today's class began with me being pelted in the face with various types of candy from none other than my teacher.
that was fun, then we were instructed to listen to some crazy music that i found quite interesting, while wearing a plastic bag over our eyes to force us to really pay attention to the music.
then we watched the "touch your taste" or something like that im not positive on the title, but it was not interesting at the beginning, it was interesting in the middle, it was boring at the end.
i left today's class being aware of E.V.E.R.Y. little sound i passed on my way home, in the car, at home, while eating dinner.
it was weird, i mean i thought i was an observant person, but apparently i've not been as observant of sound as i can be.

oh the senses.....
no wonder God created all 5
i struggled SO much to do ANY and all of them. I tried. I tried. I failed everytime, i made it nowhere near 3 hours, my body and mind are too selfish to take them away. I thanked God though everytime I took the sense back, they are all just to great and have such an amazing purpose.
BUT my new sense i would think to be is:
a sense of foreboding.
definition:
i know there is a reason this isn't a sense because life is supposed to have the good and the bad, but in a fairy tale world, this would be cool.

definition:
- a feeling of evil to come; "a steadily escalating sense of foreboding"; "the lawyer had a presentiment that the judge would dismiss the case"
- an unfavorable omen
- fateful: ominously prophetic

whoops
okey so we got carried away with choosing to disorient the entire room before leaving, giving the next class quite the mess to clean up. I do feel bad for making them annoyed or mad ....
my proposed apology:
Say I'm sorry and mean it.
and not to sound like a cold hearted person but i mean what should we do now? bad things happen to good people all the time for no reason, and i mean it was just a few unorganized desks. it probably took them 2 minutes to put them back.....SOOOO unless they are expecting more than an apology i really have no idea how we would "repay" them with something plesant?
how about we invite them to our class movie time this monday lol??

Legend Has It.....
i started this blog "legend has it" because i heard Beth say she loves when things begin like that.
today's class had up's and down's.
sometimes fun, sometimes not. but life cant always be.
im glad and appreciate beth's love for my egg, it makes me feel real good.
I cant tell you how happy it made me to walk out of the disoriented classroom of wrecked desks while the students in the hall look at me and a few other classmates and say
"dude, you guys forgot to fix the desks???" as we all looked....shrugged our shoulders...and laughingly walked away while maintaining a smile ahahahaha. i loved it.
wayzgoose.

i included the badass classroom picture and a pretty sunset from on the way home...ya know why not :)
