It just seems so apt at the moment. Damien Rice is just brilliant.

After Awhile!!
After Awhile by Veronica A. ShoffstallAfter a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul, and you learnthat love doesn`t mean leaning and company doesn`t always mean security. And you begin to learn that kisses aren`t contracts, presents aren`t promises, and you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes ahead with the grace of a man, not the grief of a childAnd you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow`s ground is too uncertain for plans, and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight. After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much, so you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure, you really are strong, you really do have worthAnd you learnAnd you learn with every goodbye, You learn...

Interesting theory!!
Someone sent this to me as via e-mail, it is certainly interesting:The following is supposedly an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.One student, however, wrote the following:First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different Religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.This gives two possibilities:1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.So which is it?If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you, and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any moresouls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only Heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God."THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A"

Farenheit 9/11
I downloaded Farenheit 9/11 a few days a go as I had seen the start of it which I really liked so wanted to see what the rest was like. I have to say that I was seriously disappointed and ended up not watching it all as I really don't see how we are meant to take it seriously. Even if every little bit of what was mentioned in the film is true I think the way that it is has been presented means that people are going to take it with a pinch of salt as there is not one bit of objectivity in the whole thing which does beg the question: how much has the truth been bent in order to get the point wanted across?
