Architecture in Helsinki "Heart it Races"

Hmmmm..this song is not worth the wait for the morning, it just killed the mood right now, and the lyrics are alright, but does not cut it, and the beat is just a to calm and peaceful, I must say even though the song killed my morning sorrow, I was happy to here something good to replace the voices in my head. ^_^

Terence McKenna on Replacing Reality

What does it means to me, well to me it says that when people get a new experience they change so that they know how to use it, but it wouldn't be the same as the original because that person changed it for themselves and if another person would learn it they would have their own way. and I really don't think it is bad because people need to learn new things even though its changing the real meaning of it...

Commentary on Calle Lasn Article

My priorities are to gain enough skills to aid this dieing planet, and the leaders should put more focus on it more that their scam to make money for their own selfish ways. and the revolutions to are both scary and exciting, because I don't wish to see people get killed because of some power hungry jerk trying to gain all the money he can, and I happy people are fight to get back whats right...

Andre Breton on What We Forget

I think he means that he lost his ways and he wants to learn how he can get back some of the things he lost, and he believes that because he lost something he will be doomed in the end, an so he wants to get it back so he can make someone happy.

Compare and contrast: Beowulf and The Iliad



To start off Beowulf is about a man named Beowulf, who goes to a kingdom to kill a creature named Grendal, which he tries, but is only able to rip the creatures arm


off, and while doing all this Beowulf reason for killing the beast wasn't for money, he wanted the Glory, so in order to get his Glory Beowulf began to kill all the creatures he


could no matter how stronge the creature was. Now on the story of the Iliad, Achilles is trying to take revenge for the death of his best friend, and so he began to kill trojans to

get to the man named Hector who is the one who kill Achilles best friend.


The thing that is similar in both stories is that both Beowulf and Achilles are killing things, and the most part both are trying to reach a goal, that would make them


happy, the diffrence is Stated in the first paragraph, Beowulf Began to hunt down monsters to gain glory, and Achilles Is killing to avenge his friend Patroclus, after being


slaughtered by Hector.


They both have diffrent ways to seek fame and for Beowulf, he seeks monsters and kills them for the Glory, that is the reason he died at the end of the poem, is


because he wanted to slay the Dragon to gain more fame even though he is old,"In endless battles. I am old, now, But I will fight again, seek fame still, If the dragon hiding in


his tower dares To face me."(Pg.52). and Achillies way of fame is to get revenge on the people who cause harm to him," Beg Me no beggary by soul or parents, whining dog!


Would god my passion drove me to slaughter you and eat raw, you've  

Matisse

The lady in the red painting is getting ready for some kind of gathering , so she is preparing some things to impress the people who she invited.....It takes sometime for the observer to see the table due to the color, which matches the wall, the painting is some what weird, because the painting just has a strange way it was painted, and the painting is a bit interesting to see.

"Last Year's Man" by Leonard Cohen

.....the song is really depressing, the atmosphere that it gives off is just sad, and the lyrics from the song, after I read through them kind of made me feel a bit sad, but other than that the beat was good and I wouldn't recommend this song to anyone who is depressed this would cause to much harm to them, as my teacher stated this song would be great for a depressing scene in a movie.

The Decemberists "The Island"

This song is getting more interesting, I like how it changes for one style to another, the song makes today feel more better even though it started off on the wrong side, it makes me want to stare at the sky for hours on end, also the beats don't bore me like other song beats I would want to keep hearing it all day just to make things more better today.. 

(Just Like) Starting Over" by John Lennon

OK...that was weird.. the song made me laugh for awhile, but if someone would play this song as a Valentine song hopefully they don't get the giggles like some of the students..next to me, the song has a Grease style of rhythm, but other than that the song is just makes me laugh, reason just because the way it sounds, would be interesting just to hear in public...hahaha.   

Beowulf Blog

1)Beowulf conveys the youth as hard working and fighting for whats right, and as an old person he conveys a person who will do anything to protect everything he worked for.2)they admire glory and fame, they would be considered as greed also would be considered as envy as well.3)the monsters we have in San Antonio is people who want money even though they are rich, and they don't care how they get it, and they would be politics and so on, the threat they pose is causing families to be forced out of homes, just to build things for themselves.4) pillow-scar-when someone is asleep and thinks there is a person, but it was really their pillow, Cat-boomerang- when you throw a cat off the bed, and that same cat returns from another side.

Relativism---ARE YOU A RELATIVIST? WHY OR WHY NOT?

hmmmm...I think I am relativist, because I don't think much about good and evil, I just tell myself that it could be part of their culture, also if something happened I would say out of it because the person who is being attacked or something may have done something in the past to piss that person off. but really I don't really know if I am a relativist because I still use morals in some situations that I encounter.

Sympathy for the Devil

they would feel sorry for him, because some of the situations he has gone threw may have lead up to the reason he began to kill, such as being attacked by people for no reason, also he may have been forced out from civilization, and possibly he may have started to kill because he was never near people so he just did understand. 

Bright Eyes "Landlocked Blues"

this song really gets you, the lyrics makes you think about how you been living life, and it makes you want to find different ways to live, and also the song makes you think about how things use to be before you came into the equation of life, the song makes me want to change untouchable times, finally it feels like how some of the things in life are. I really like this song cause it makes life feel more better than it use to be.OoO

ART Blog

the painting tells me that the person has a sound mind, all it does is show the person with buildings on top of their head, to me it shows a world that has order and peace, and the reason I choose this piece is because it seemed a great interest to me, also the way it looks, such as having structures on top of your head would be weird, just to show you have a sound mind.

The Kiss

The connection I see is he had a good relationship or so and wanted to express it to the world through his paintings, and they will do anything to get a good Idea and would just begin to paint or draw anywhere at anytime, also they would even stay up days on end to complete the painting.
