What Has The World Come To?

Okay, so admittedly, I haven't been writing as much as I would have liked since i have started Uni. Sorry. But there have been incidents, plastered all over the news lately that have brought out the rage in me, and the only question I have is, what has the world come to?
What has the world come to when, a father would kill his own daughter in an attempt to get back at his estranged girlfriend? What has the world come to when, he posts on facebook that he is going to kill his kid? What has the world come to when he dumps in the body in bushland? How could he kill his own child? It is stories like this that aggravate me deeply. When I read something like this, I get so angry. I am not going to question whether the death penalty should be brought back into Australian society, in the end, I have no say over that. But, do these people really deserve to live?
The only thing I have read/heard about worse than this, was little Darcy, who got thrown over the edge of the Westgate bridge. I am not going to mention this a lot. It is still a very sensitive issue for many people, I am sure, and it still affects me, even not knowing this family. But once again, what could possess anyone to do this type of thing astounds me. It really makes me wonder what the world has come to. There are many people doing incredible good, but so many doing incredible bad. What is happening?

Who Remembers Their First Day?

So, I started University today. And, it's good. It really is. But, my word, is it easy to get lost in a crowd so big. Not even just to get lost physically, but, to lose yourself, to conform into what everyone else. I really admire those who are willing to stand out and be themselves. In my opinion, those that change themselves to fit into a crowd are some of the least confident people going around... not to mention, somewhat despicable. If you do, genuinely, enjoy what the vast majority does, then, feel free, be my guest. But, I cannot stand it when I see someone radically alter themselves to fit in with a particular person, or particular group of people.
This was not my thought when walking around Uni, mind you. It was the opposite. It was the admiration of those, wandering their way through the maze of people and the labyrinth of shadows descending from the buildings, who stood out. Those who, were willing to show the vast expanses of the campus who they are, and who they want to be. But, it was this that got me thinking... "Who in this crowd is showing who they truly are? Who here is hiding something from, literally, thousands of people?" I pondered, and I pondered, but there is no surefire to figure it out. There isn't even a method which could accurately predict most people who are/were acting fake. But, I guess that isn't for me to worry about, unless it is causing said person feelings of sadness, incompleteness, loneliness etc. In which case, it should be everyone's problem. But, in the end, there isn't much I can do about that.
Which, brings me to my final interesting note in this post. Isn't it strange that we can feel so alone, even in such a large crowd of people. Whereby, proximally, we are not alone at all. Not even close.
I guess, I will leave you that to ponder with. In the meantime, enjoy this demotivational poster from despair.com Personally, I enjoy the mixed feelings that arise from the humorous/non-humourous double entendre that is created. But, I guess that's just the smart person in me... Just enjoy.

A Blank Mind.

These last few weeks have not been "A Mind's Blank Canvas" but more of A Blank Mind. I have found it tough to write about anything. You see, as I said earlier on, it is so much easier to write about the negatives than it is to write about the positives. And, to be perfectly honest, life right now, life is good. I have felt absolutely nothing to write about. As I have said to people, I am very easygoing, there is not much that really phases me. So, to feel so inclined to write the rants that I did, and complain, well, those subjects bothered me. But, lately, life has been good. Therefore, I don't know what to write, and this post shall be no exception. There is nothing else I can think of adding to this. Although, I guess it's good that I have nothing to be upset about.

A Lazy Sunday Afternoon

Orphan is a good movie. That is all.

An Amazing Conversation

To be honest, this isn't about one paritcular conversation. Though, it was most definitely inspired by a very long conversation I had. This particular conversation went for hours upon hours, and even though I had work this morning (This happened last night, by the way) I still found it impossible to leave this conversation till 12.00/12.30. I told myself earlier that night that I would be in bed by 11, so I could get a good amount of sleep. Funny how plans work out, huh? Maybe, just maybe, there is something there. So, this post is going to push off into two different parts.
First, isn't it amazing that we can talk to people for so, so long. For hours upon hours. Upon hours. I think that it is such an amazing phenomenon. Who would think that you could talk to one person for many, many hours. It is not often that it happens, but it is something that I find very interesting. To be honest, I have absolutely no idea why this can happen. Something in the brain, I guess, but I do find it very interesting. If you think you know why, feel free to comment and give me a theory.
Secondly, I wondered, how are you supposed to know if someone else likes you, or is fond of you? Is it an innate understanding that we have? That some of us lack? I dont really know, but I do think it is something that is innate to us. That somehow we just know, or at the least, think we know, who fancies us. And by the same token, who we like is the same. I have found it very difficult, practically impossible to convince myself that I like someone. It is something that I find is a natural process. Deliberately trying to convince yourself you do (or do not) like someone, or find someone attractive, is, I find, extremely difficult. Extremely difficult! Practically impossible! So, I guess, if you have some ideas on how you know if a guy/girl finds you attractive, let me know! I am interested to see what people think.

Now, I know in a previous post (See: Valentine's Day... Ugh) I detested Valentine's Day. Well, maybe not so strong, but I did mention that I am not a huge fan. And, I stand by my statement that it is no different from any other day, it just has a name. However, today is Valentine's Day. And in order to not alienate any of my readers (of which there are like, 2) I'll write a short list of some of my favourite love songs (I don't like Valentine's Day, but love songs are the greatest!).
In no particular order:

• Nothin' On You (Feat. Bruno Mars) - B.o.B
• My Beautiful Rescue - This Providence
• Into Your Arms - The Maine
• Whoever She Is - The Maine
• I Want To Know What Love Is - Foreigner
