Kickass Kids of the Day: Craving a midweek pick-me-up? Perhaps in the form of a mini-hipster rendition of Robyn’s “Call Your Girlfriend”?

Twelve- and 8-year-old sisters Lennon and Maisy — and their butter containers — have you covered. You’re welcome.

Doesn’t really pertain to me, but I found myself smiling while watching this.  It’s a bit dated, but she sounds like a super awesome person and I wish more people would take to heart some of the things she says.  Especially in the world we are in now.  :T

Why Women Will Rule the Economy of the Future

Women are poised to dominate our workforce in the coming years. With each passing decade, more Americans have gone to school and earned a higher degree. But as shown in this chart above, which I compiled from data in a pair of annual reports released by the National Center for Education Statistics, nearly all of that progress since 1975 has been among females (in GREEN).
Women passed men in bachelor’s attainment in 1995 and haven’t looked back since. By 2000, a higher share of females were earning Master’s degrees, where they now out-compete males 8.8 percent to 5.1 percent. The pattern has been similar across every racial demographic. Among whites, blacks, Hispanics, and Asians, women have simply made more progress.

be my boyfriend!

I watched four seasons of That 70’s Show in less than two weeks.  This is bad.

Anyway.  I just finished the last episode of season four.  It was super heartbreaking to see his parents yelling at him for not getting back together with Donna…because I think he is right.  He didn’t get back with her because no self respecting person would.  Who wants to be the second choice rebound?  He gave her the option to possibly be together in the future and she didn’t see that.  I can’t see them being together in anyway and I don’t understand why the show writers made the scenario that way.  Is their idea of a relationship so weird that I can’t understand why they would write the show like that?  Meh.  All I know is that if I were in Donna’s situation and the entire show played out the way it did, things would be very different than the way they ended the season.  Guh.

Anyway.  Back to packing.

more dysfunction

well this just fucking sucks.

Apparently my sister went to the hospital yesterday because she was super sick.

My mom missed her flight yesterday too.  She also probably has to stay in California to take care of my sister now so she will probably miss her new re-booked flight.

Which means that I will most likely be doing graduation alone.

Which there isn’t really a point to.

So I guess…that’s that.

yay dysfunctional families.

I really don’t think I’ll miss anyone. 

I mean I’m grateful for a lot of their experiences…but college is so impartial and indifferent.  I really don’t think I’ll miss anyone.  Except probably one person.  But I know we’ll meet again.

If you write fiction, you may want to watch this video and listen to this song.

It’s the sort of thing that cries out for people to write stories to accompany it…

Why does cigarette smoke never go back into the cigarette ? Why do molecules spread away from each other ? Why does the spilled drop of ink never reform ? Because the universe moves towards a state of dissipation. That is the principle of entropy, the tendency of the universe to evolve toward a state of increasing disorder. The principle of entropy is related to the arrow of time, a result of the expansion of the universe. But what will happen when gravitational forces counter-balance the forces of expansion or if the energy of the quantum void proves too weak ? At that moment the universe might enter its phase of contraction. The big crunch.
So, what will become of time ? Will it reverse ?
No one knows the answer.
