Jammin' to this while waiting for my notes to finish being printed :D
Side note: I saved 10 sheets of paper by using double-sided printing. Awwww yeeeee.

Just a fun little video project that my friends asked me to be a part of :)

If I could meet anyone that has ever existed on this planet at any given interval of time, she would pretty much be at the top of my list.

I really like The Fray :)

Love this dance. Love this choreographer. Love the message of this dance.

PS: I feel like this dance kind of represents "walking away" from Omelas in a sense. Or at least, I feel as if this dance represents making change, which I think embodies what walking away means to an extent.

Le Guin Blog Topic: #2

Topic:  If you were a citizen of Omelas, would you stay or would you walk? Please explain and justify your decision.

For one, I feel as if this question almost forces me to search into the utmost depths of my opinions on humanity and my own moral and ethical values, and I find that somewhat intimidating. On the other hand, it really compels me to actually ask myself: If I really was a citizen of Omelas, would I genuinely stay or would I walk? The key word being "genuinely".

When I answered the poll on the blog asking if I would walk away or not, I answered "yes" without virtually any hesitation. But after an engaged class discussion and all the time my brain has had to process things since the time I read the story until now, I'm honestly not so sure. If I could re-take the poll, I'd probably say that it depends. And I'd probably only answer that because that's the closest answer to "I totally don't know". Conversely, I'm the kind of person that likes to stick with a decision once I've made it. So yes, given the choice, I would walk away from Omelas.

To be honest, being so firm about my decision to walk away from Omelas makes me feel a little on edge. For one, it makes me wonder whether I seriously believe that walking away would be the right thing to do even it came at the expense of my happiness, so to speak. Secondly, it makes me question if  if I'm a hypocrite for not always "walking away" from the Omelas of reality (pertaining to child labour, and poverty etc). I know that in my heart, I definitely would walk away from a place like Omelas because I feel that their treatment (or lack thereof) of the child is completely unjust. However, I can't promise that my feet would be so enthusiastic to follow.

Yes, I would walk away from Omelas. I would walk away because I don't believe that deliberately ignoring guilt is equivalent to true happiness. I also don't believe that settling for anything less than true happiness is worth it. With that said, I find myself basking in the sad reality of a culture that almost refuses to leave our own "Omelas" because we're comfortable where we are. And personally, I honestly don't think I've had the guts to walk very far yet.

I would walk away from Omelas. I really would. But I'm still trying to discover what walking away actually entails.

This is my crew :) We won 3rd in the Mega Crew division for this year's World Hip Hop Championships in Las Vegas! Praise God<3

Aw yee, first post :)

Good afternoon world!

I am currently writing to you in a fairly cheerful disposition from a location which I prefer to keep anonymous. I just wanted to say hello and thank you for taking the time out of your daily routine to visit my blog! I can't promise you that I'm the most vivacious or fascinating person, place, or thing you'll ever encounter on the Internet, but I'd like to think that I'm decent company :$

Okaaay, time to do homework. For real. No space for poor high school work ethic and bad habits anymore. Well, at least that's the plan for the rest of my life.


PS: I'm LOVING university so far :D
