variability

Sunday, August 24, 2008

"...always account for variable changes..."

the movie 21 was great. haven't had any clues about the ever famous card game "blackjack" but the movie was interestingly good.
besides, it was based on a real-life story...
THAT made it better.
new profitable business in mind: counting cards.
lol.

variable.
the inconsistent thing that keeps on changing, changing...
i do believe that change is the only constant thing in this world. yeah.
people change... things change...

"...he just asked you a simple question..."
"yeah, and that changed everything."

well, since i was talking about variability, this entry's gonna have various topics to discuss...

depression is contagious.
it's really unhealthy to hang out with dejected, down-in-the-dumps people. they are like unpleasant suctions that draw happiness from others...
and you, mr. im-depressed-and-i-want-everyone-to-feel-the-same-way, stop screwing around my bestfriend.
(that's sorta straight)
you cant wallow in the pain of the past. that's freakin' cowardice.!! and when you want something (or in your case, someone)... when you really, REALLY want it... you're going to do everything in your power to get it.
you wont just stand still and stare with dreamy eyes...
you ARE going to do something about it.
anything, really.
depression is contagious. it is a disease.
and diseases are supposed to be destroyed.
annihilated completely.

i love latin!! latin is great!!
why is it that they have latin subject in europe?! im jeaaaloooouuus....

im reading this book that topher lent me...
"Haunted" by Chuck Palahniuk.
it IS upsetting...
not the sort of horror books which generally involve supernatural crap...
it is a horror book which involves common stuff... twisted and distorted to be eerily upsetting.
the book contains 23 stories... i've just read the first story.
and it was sick.
mr. palahniuk was a great writer. he made my stomach churn as i was reading the tale "GUTS"...
i could almost feel the very sensation that the character felt.. and it was creepy.
and there are just a few books that upset me.
heavy mutilation, macabre deaths, gory murder details --- it doesnt upset me.
i love gory details.
i AM a gory writer. (what would you call anyone who would write a short story about a man killed with an enormous kitchen knife protruding from his head to his throat when she was 11yrs old?)
fine, fine... the first story wasnt terrifying. not even close to that.
it was simply... UPSETTING.
but then, i prefer being terrified than being upset... lol.
it was a nine-page short story. the first half, i was laughing at the stupidities made by the other characters as told by the main character. the 2nd half...
let's just say that my stomach was churning as i turn the pages...
due to my overactive imagination, i was able to conjure a full-colored, detailed mind movie of the story.
read the book if you're curious.
i recalled that topher told me that i might not be able to handle the book due to its apparent morbidity.
well, morbidity is one of my closest friends.
i love the story. that would be it. it electrically intensified my imagination.

am also reading "GOOD OMENS" by neil gaiman and terry pratchett.
it plays on armageddon, the bible, evil, god, and all that...
highly amusing.
highly interesting.
you'll wonder about stuff and all that...

am writing a literary article about something gory. again.
well, literary section of the schoolpaper has a theme that focuses on "reverse fairytales".
very broad theme, in fact.
and knowing me, it will be morbid in any other way.

am also writing a feature article about the definition of evil.
feature section's theme is "science vs religion"... the infamous battle of the world's greatest strongholds of power.

am also writing news articles...
well... themes arent needed.
i still prefer fiction to fact. lol.

well, this is getting longer than the intended number of words.
gotta go
poof.
