Overall, there should be more breaks..
Since, hanging out with friends is much more fun than reading the newest SAT books…

Have you ever had that feeling that you want to do something, something so epic that it is clearly out of whatever you could possibly do? Like a dream of wanting to create the best website, or a chance to do something that has meaning? I do not mean dreams that are meant for the far future, when the amount we can learn from someone else has approached a relative maximum, but right now.
I don’t know about everyone else, but I have a continuous problem of needing to do more than what I can do. But I realize now that I need to decrease my sights. I have that problem of seeing the end eons before the beginning, of looking at the money being generated before I have a product to create it. But I realized now, what I need to do.
BACK TO THE BASICS!!!
I can remember when we all first got a bluug, we each swore at one time “MY BLUUG WILL NOT GET EMO!!!” (well, maybe all of us except wayne… >.< I’m so sorry …)
Isn’t it ironic then, that almost all of our bluug posts are emo?
I blame … wordpress… because with them, we start to write about things that we normally wouldn’t even think about…
Jalapeños hurt.
Jalapeños make my mouth sting, but I still enjoy the feeling.
Jalapeños make my body feel warm.
Jalapeños make me smile.
Jalapeños hurt.
I guess that’s what love must be, something that hurts at times, but in the end, I keep moving back towards it…
Darn feelings…
Sorry Trent, but your idea was just too good…
Dear Stanford Applicant,
Stanford has always been a university that wishes to create a balanced school, one in which intellectual freedom allows our students to create great companies like Google. Every year, we receive thousands of worthy applicants, many of who are capable of adding to this environment, but as we all know, we can only accept so many.
This is a time of great economic crises, and Stanford is not recession proof. We still wish to offer the most complete financial aid in the country (unlike UC Berkeley we might add), and in order to do that, we end up having to accept fewer applicants. I’m sorry to say that you were not one of those that have been accepted.
All the applications were wonderful (especially the $75), and we all enjoyed reading about your grandmother died, how you conquered in Linage II, or how you simply made it through the Common Application website. But as I’ve already stated, Stanford University just can not accept anything but the best.
Special note to Applicant 50646105
While the above standard rejection email is meant for the vast majority of applicants, we here at Stanford have a special message for you.
Your application was one of the worst we have ever received. Not only did we not receive everything, you failed to even have a GPA worth considering. If you had been of a minority race, lower income, or possibly a super star football player, we still would have been unable to accept you.
However, we do not mean this in any negative way. Stanford is an elite school, where the great get wait listed and the gods get accepted, and we do not believe any part of you fits at this school (this excludes any money or gifts you may wish to send us). I would highly recommend another year of high school, joining the military, or searching harder for that school that can accommodate your special needs.
Thank you for your $75, we will make sure to save it for you when you come here to work as a janitor.

And even now, I still can’t slow down
And no, this has nothing to do with buzzers, homework, school, or anything academically
I just wonder, why am I always in such a rush, when in the end, I make so many more mistakes…
In no particular order…
10. I can LAN with them, and they actually know what they are doing.
9. I can eat with them at all times, and they will eat with me.
8. I can talk to them at anytime, and they usually aren’t annoyed at me.
7. We can speck our imbas and lols without feeling out of place.
6. We can share our ideas and thoughts.
5. We can talk during our classes, and it feels good.
4. We can bitch about people, knowing I can trust them.
3. You’ll criticize my music, but then suggest something good.
2. You’ll remind me why I care.
1. I can tell you my secrets, and even though you might laugh, I know you’ll understand.
The desire for a small amount of happinesss in the moment, even if the larger picture will get worse.
