Limitless

I just watched the movie Limitless, starring Bradley Cooper. I must say that it was awesome! I wasn't expecting too much, but it was a little thought provoking, and had just the right amount of action, violence and sex to be entertaining. The plot is about a man that gets ahold of a drug that lets him use and access 100% of his brain. Watching his trials and successes is the thought provoking part. The ending leaves you thinking...

So, now I'm thinking. And I must say I feel smarter...

Wow. That was a blonde sentence.

But, I feel a little limitless myself. More creative certainly. I might just start writing something. Although I would be better off  using this brainpower to think of ways to get a job. Because, even if I write the next great novel, it won't get published without money. Yeah, yeah, I could self-publish, but I'd still have to promote it. On Monday(or Tuesday or Wednesday) I'm going to go to a temp agency, finally.  Up until now I've been too proud to do so.

Time to push my pride out the door, and onto the street. There's no room for it in my life anymore! Pride, fear, and laziness can take a hike, too. I've been feeling motivated. Heck, yesterday I did sit-ups and pushups and squats... Holy crap, I exercised. Haha. I just did what I could do in my room without making too much noise.

Ten Rules For Being Human

  1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it’s yours to keep for the entire period.
  2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, “life.”
  3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The “failed” experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately “work.”
  4. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.
  5. Learning lessons does not end. There’s no part of life that doesn’t contain its lessons. If you’re alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.
  6. “There” is no better a place than “here.” When your “there” has become a “here”, you will simply obtain another “there” that will again look better than “here.”
  7. Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.
  8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
  9. Your answers lie within you. The answers to life’s questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
  10. You will forget all this.

Overtired Connection

Isn't it strange that media, jokes, songs and games for "mature: audiences, are really quite immature?

Essentially, everyone whom indulges in such things, is having a little tingle of excitement because they are "getting away with it".

Porn, offensive jokes, cussing and violence...
Are they ever really funny?
Porn should be used as a stimulant, or to learn some new moves ;)
Offensive jokes.. well, they're just not nice. And I only find them ok when the subjects are idiots :)
Swearing should be used for emphasis and anger.
Violence? It happens... But I don't get the thrill of games and such where you kill things/people. I've never been a big gamer, so I never really cared. Violent movies are... Actually, I find them boring.

Maybe I'll think of something else to add when I wake up.


I cleaned my room today. I keep finding things to throw away or donate... Where is it all coming from???? I didn't have that much stuff to begin with, but I keep coming across more. If I put my mind to it, I could put it all away today.

Meh.

I gave my puppy a bath last night :) She's so clean and fluffy! I just read an interesting article about "Small dog syndrom". She's got it. Crap.
Basically, smaller dogs are treated differently that larger dogs. They are allowed to jump on people, pull on a leash, sit on furniture(and laps), and are coddled more. But dogs are not aware of their size. All dogs have the same pack mentality and allowing a dog to jump and beg and paw at you to be pet means that the owner isn't seen as the alpha.
It makes me a little pissed to know I was doing it all wrong. I thought I was comforting her, or respecting her... But she is not a human, and her scratching at me to pet her is getting annoying.

Time to take control!!

'Cause we all know how good at that I am... *rolls eyes*

All I want is to stop her from lying on my pillows. Then we'll be cool :D
