If that were me, I think i would have chosen to pull the chair. Although it's horrible and sad, the rationality is

that if I wasn't the one to pull the chair, the guard would have done it then killed another innocent person because

of my actions. It's a terrible thing and as sad as it is, it's the right thing to do. No matter what the son would have died.

At least his death wouldn't have caused another person their life. As a father, I can't even imagine what it must have

been like to have to do that to your own son. But I wouldn't want my actions to take someone else's life. Rationally,

one person dying is better than two people dying. The chances of me being able to understand the pain of a father

killing his own son is slim. But in this situation there is I think there is technically a right and wrong thing to do.

plansss...

over break, my friend amber, joe, and i are going up to mountain creek for the weekend. we'll probably spend the day time snowboarding and just hanging out, then at night there's a couple parties at mountain creek we want to go to. there's a heated out door pool so i'm really excited to just get back to the house after snowboarding then just jump into the pool and.. HOT TUB.. when i come back on monday, i think monday night i'm going up to hunter with some friends. come back tuesday, and then the rest of break is just going to be relaxing and working. same old same old. then sometime this week, i'm going up to pennsylvania for my friend dirt biking competition. good stuff. :]

My Own Worst Enemy.

In retrospect, not a lot of things in life get me down. But one thing that really just depresses the hell out of me is how i chose to make decisions. I don't like to read too deeply into things, so when it comes to making a choice, it's almost such an "enie-menie-minie-moe" situation with me. I think that makes me my own worst enemy a lot of the time. I don't make decisions or choices based on what will make me the happiest or better, i basically base it on what is going to make it easier on me and everyone around me. i avoid making choices that hurt me or my friends around me which is weird because i can be the riskiest person, but I'm so conserved some days. i have the absolute worst inner conflicts about almost everything. if it comes down to two things i can't chose between i just usually drop both and don't think about it. because i do this, i really am never sure what i really want or what makes me happy because of this. it's not even that I'm indecisive or anything and i can't make a choice, it's just that i hate making them. i hate having to think about consequences so i just do things a lot of the time without thinking about it. i know it's stupid and it's going to end up biting me in the end. but or now it just makes things easier.

be real, you fools.

be real. don't ever pretend to be something you are not. when you are speaking to someone, you look them straight in the eye so they know you are telling the truth. don't you ever dare stare blank into another's face, and lie to them. that's just wrong. if you are going to lie, you do it where their eyes don't match yours. you don't look them in the eye and tell them a bold faced lie. wear what you want to wear. don't worry what's in style or what anyone else thinks. it's your style that makes you who you are. don't be afraid of risks. take them willingly. but don't become a straight addict. don't live your life on impulse for there are consequences for our actions. but live it fully. don't ever give up on anything, especially yourself. don't ever give up on anything you believe in. don't ever turn your back on those who mean the most. they are not replaceable. don't ever leave your best friends for what you think are "better" friends. don't ever leave the one you love for the one you like, for the one you like will leave you for the one they love. don't ever try to be more or less than who you really are. follow social niceties. be polite to people. but always be honest. don't tell someone you dislike that you can be their best friend. that's just dishonest. politely let them know that they annoy the crap out of you. when letting someone know they suck, you must always be the better person. don't do to them what they do to you. two wrongs do not make a right. be sensitive to other's feelings no matter how insensitive they can be to you. look them in the eye and gently tell them. leave me alone. it's very simple. sarcasm is easy but unhelpful in most situations. i have come to discover that many people cannot pick up on sarcasm and are easily offended. if you are the type to brush off their emotions like a little dust on your shoulder, then life is simple. but will not always be pleasant. when letting someone down. you apologize. and never assume sorry is enough. you ask what it is you can do to make it up to them. you never assume you can justify your actions. be proud, but not boastful. being condescending is the most evil of all sins. you being good at something doesn't give you the right to make someone else feel like crap. Be careful what you pretend to be because you are what you pretend to be. don't just speak to hear yourself speak. it's freakin' annoying when people do that. it's like people have to talk about something just to keep their voice boxes in working order so they'll have good voice boxes in case there's ever anything really meaningful to say. it's dumb. don't be dumb. it'll make me just like you less. be social. don't stay home all the time. spend time with your friends and show them you care. i hate people who sit at home every night and talk to their dogs, or action figures or whatever. like dude, go outside and get some goddamn fresh air.

in some ways it would be awesome if music was free to download. then so many ore people would be able to afford to listen to music. on the other hand though, then the musicians that produce the music wouldn't really make a lot of money. no matter what the rules are, people are going to find a way to break them. even now, kids send each other songs through AIM, email, usb, burn cds, use downloaders like limewire and frostwire. 

sometimes i feel bad because if you think about it, there are only maybe 15 songs on a track. lets say you buy a cd for 20 dollars. the musicican is only making maybe .75 a song. and that takes time to produce each song. so it's really unfair to them.

but i mean, one dollar for a song on itunes is pretty expensive once it starts to add up. and if its a bunch of kids who want music maybe they can't afford it. i think there needs to be some kind of compromise.

what would you do if you were deaf and blind?..

".. character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.." Helen Keller.

the quote i chose is a heavy one that holds a lot of truth. life cannot be gone through easily, fluidly, quietly, or happily. i think for people to become their true selves they need to go through life with open arms accepting anything that comes their way. no one ever said that life would be easy, nor would anything be simple. to learn, sometimes you must hurt. to grow, sometimes you must take a step back. and to love, you must lose. 

i think that coming from helen keller that means a lot. she went through almost her whole life blind and deaf. completely cut off from the world in a way that all other people connect to others. i'm sure there were times she just wanted to give up and let life take it's toll on her. and i think life is about those moment. those moments where you feel smaller than the words you speak. you feel little, and insignificant compared to the world. but you are small. everyone is small, and its not a bad thing. life is about being small and making a big impact. it's not about making as much money as possible, it's not about  what you wear, or who you're friends with. its about the little moments that make you happy. so many people are afraid to live the small moments because they're afraid of pain. they're afraid the small moments lead to the big ones. and that all that will lead to making a choice. but making choices is life. it's a privilege and a right. 

live every small emotion, little every little moment. touch as many people as possible in your life. because life is so short. one minute you're obsessing over what dress to wear to prom, the next you're sitting in your house wondering where your life went. do as much as you can in a lifetime. don't waste time with the little worries and concerns, but live as fully as possible and help as many people as possible. if you see someone carry something heavy, go help them. because they won't forget that. if a friend is crying, comfort them, because they will not forget that either. 

cherish the ones you love, and forget anything that gets in your way. don't ever let anyone tell you that you can't do something. because life is about what you can't do. it's about what you didn't bother to try to do. learn as much as possible. learn a new language. communicate with as many people as possible. learn a new dance. speak with your body. paint something, show what you can do with your hands. sing a song, let's hear your pitch, who cares if it sucks?
