Good to know. I like my cyber-dinosaurs of the 21st Century. The way you use brute power and superior technology is a convincing way to get those to yield to you.

I suppose no one wants to blow up the universe? *puts Jupiter-turned-into-giant-black-hole-bomb into a vault.*

Ibis, I've got plenty of moons so I can just sell them all. It's a big universe after all. Any specific interests? Pluto (Charon comes free with the deal.), or perhaps Altair VI?

I shall sit in my house as safe as can be because nobody really cares about Indiana. If they do, that's news to me.

: P

So I will sit down on a nice comfy couch... Sipping my Early Grey tea and reading my beloved Death Note, whilst you are all fighting.

Suckers.

:]

Hey, guys, time out on our war. The E3 trailer for Halo 3 just became availiable. Here's the link. At this stage, everything you see the Chief doing in this gameplay footage you can actually do (like rip off the guns on turret emplacements and wield them as a weapon, that's been confirmed).

Enjoy. smile.gif

I do not, do you think that you have Quicktime Player? Well, here's what the Brute is saying at the beginning:

"You are, all of you, vermin."

"Cowering in the dirt, thinking. What, that you might escape the coming fire?"

"Your world will burn until it's surface is but glass!"

I had to wake up at six thirty AM today. I went to the hospital at seven twenty am, waited for it to open, and went to the lab with my mother. They took my blood and gave me this gawdawful sickly sweet orange tasting glucose solution. They told me to come back if I felt bad. Well, in twenty minutes, I was back at the hospital, feeling like I was going to die. I threw up and voided the test. I'll have to go back sometime to be tested for hypoglycemia again. *sigh* I hope there's another way to test for it, because that was just vile. I had to down a substance that was ridiculously sweet and disgusting in a short amount of time. Of course, it was a fasting blood test, so I couldn't eat 8 hours before the test or during it. Ugh.

I'll have to reschedule. My doctor did call and tell me to eat 6-8 small meals a day and have lots of protein. Nice doctor. Hopefully I don't have hypoglycemia... just have to see another time, heh.

Yesterday I finally got my permit. Damn I look goofy.

Eugh.

Everytime I smell a sweet orange smell, I feel really sick.

That orange tasting sweet glucose stuff... ugh.

I have four days to get my bf a birthday present. I know what he wants, and I think I'll do a portrait of him. *sigh*

*hugs Zarrexaij* hang in there, dear.


I might start working as soon as next week. It'll probably be a 6-day working week job, from 7AM to 3Am, with one hour for travel before & after. It's well-paid, though, for our conditions. I hope this gets sorted out quickly so I can start making some money already.

In DoomedOne news...

My grades weren't as high as the dean wanted, so she might not let me come back next year (But she will, cause I'm sly like that.)

My lap top got jacked, but my dad came and visited and gave me his

Bad luck is a part of life, and in every situation not matter who's to blame it never hurts to see what yu could have done better. I think the most important thing is that I just don't give up and run home to ma. I'm learning self-reliance, it's a difficult skill for everybody but it has to happen some time I guess.

So I got this book called the Secret Teachings of All Ages. Actually, my Uncle gave it to me a year ago but I only started reading it (along with most my books) after my laptop got jacked. So basically it pretty much gives you the roots and real meanings of all religions that came from the Greeks, Chaldeans, Egyptians, Vikings and all the notable societies in between like Israel, Gaul, The Celts and the Vikings (racist I know but its from 1925). Early religions could be broken into two parts from this area, the Religion for the masses, and the Mysteries. Each state religion had a sect where the intellectualists practiced discovery of real truth. While the people worshipped their Sea God as a literary being the members of the Mysteries understood the idle's true symbolic significance.

When Christianity came out there was no side sect established by the state, because Rome simply didn't think it was necessary to actually find a difference between right and wrong, and yet people still pondered the true significance of Jesus vs. the masses given interpretation, they were the Gnostics, but eventually that role was taken over by the Rosicrucians. The King James Bible was majorly influence by the Rosicrucians (to the point where Sir Frances Bacon practically wrote it himself). They masked layers upon layers of symbolism in there that they knew would be taken literary by those who couldn't be bothered seeking truth and preferred to be told what was true.

Pretty interesting stuff. The author doesn't take sides, he just presents evidence. I mean this was written before atheism took off, and I doubt the author was an atheist, just a symbologist.

Oh and I'm also getting into Buddhism. To be honest I was getting into symbology because it is important for me to find the real truth, but as I looked into buddhism i realized one cannot truly intellectually grasp truth that exists beyond our physical universe. That was something I sort of figured, but Plato, Pythagoras and Orpheus were all supposed to have been enacted into the great mysteries of the world in Giza, Egypt, so I was thinking maybe there is something. I realized intellectual, comprehensible understanding of the Beyond is purely symbolic. A good example is a woman I heard talking about her attempts to describe Americans landing on the moon to a village in Central America. They didn't understand anything beyond their world, so the lady was forced to tell them the men flewinking gorde up to the moon. All major religions in the world just replace drinking gorde with something else, even Buddhism. However there are still plenty of buddhists that understand its only the nonphysical self that can understand the Beyond and gain from it. These are the buddhist that are on their way to true enlightenment. So that's my new spiritual quest at the moment, though I'm going to apply the teachings in my own western way.

What denominations are you looking into? I'm of Soka Gakkai international which is of the broader school of Mahayana buddhism.

I was actually thinking of looking into Buddhism... I don't know where to look, though.

I'm going to be up north until Saturday next week; I believe I'll be able to post during that time, but I do not think as frequently as normal. I'll be leaving at 1400 and probably won't arrive at my aunt's house until around 1830 tonight.

I doubt I'll be able to post tonight, but maybe tomorow.
