So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

You'd think that Antarctica is the only thing that I think about, given that it's all I ever talk about, but you'd be wrong, because I only think about Antarctica about 10% of the time. Then there is about 88% of the time that I spend thinking about boys, and 2% of the time I think about all the other stuff I have to do before I leave for Antarctica. Ok, that's not entirely accurate. At this very moment, I guess I'd break things down in this way: 50% Boys 10% Antarctica 10% Boys & Antarctica 10% Math 8% Stories 2% Science 8% Everything else I'm not counting time I spend thinking about family and friends, they get their own pie. I remember this conversation I once had with my best friend in fifth grade. We were in my garage and we were talking about boys, and we swore to each other that if one of us started liking boys that the other one would shoot her in the face. We were being kind of serious, too. I should call her out on her failure to keep up her end of the bargain. Though I dare say it would end poorly for both of us. I've often thought about how much time and effort the members of the human race waste falling in love with each other... just imagine how much I could get done if I took that 50-60% back and applied it to science or math! Though I probably wouldn't apply it to science or math at all, at least not in some useful way, I'd probably do what I normally do when I don't like anyone which is learning how to make cement out of volcanic ash on the internet, or reading about how to make a two-way mirror in your garage, or looking through 386 pages of Twilight fan-fic paintings on DeviantArt. For those of you who clearly spend 10% or more of your time thinking about math, that's still where the missing 2% from the above list goes... yes it just disappears into the depths of the internet where there are whole websites about how to get volcanic ash off airport runways, how to make charcoal, how to make gun powder, how to make origami hats, how to play the bodhran, how many people there are in Afghanistan, how long is a second on Mars, is it "where ever" or "wherever", and where does the word "science" come from. If only I were a vampire like Edward and I didn't have to sleep; I could ostensibly spend the 33% of my time that I usually spend asleep answering these important questions. Though to my credit, I was just lying dramatically on the couch to think about boys and staring blankly at a map of the world that was on the wall when I became completely distracted from my melodramatic thoughts trying to figure out how many time zones there were in Russia. There is still hope for me!! 3 Comments. Haha. It is truly fitting that there's a slice specifically for boys + Antarctica. » middaymoon on 2009-10-13 10:01:36 Ever since I left your place, everytime I read an entry of yours I imagine you sitting at that dreadful desktop with those evil cats draped around your shoulders and my tie in a dumpster outside your window. How many time zones ARE in russia? I've been staring at maps for a while too. What's your impression of Chicago? I'm thinking of moving there to become a teacher (Teach for America or Chicago Teaching Corps or something) when I graduate before going to Law School. I can't believe you're going to Antarctica... I hope you don't become enslaved by their polar bear army again. » undisputed on 2009-10-13 10:44:51 eat.love.pray. So, I read this book a while ago (long story short a divorcee travels the word trying to heal herself) but!(and this is relevant...) there's an excert where the narrator is talking about a psychoanalist friend she has. This friend who is apperently (though vaguely) very influential in her field has been asked to talk to some refugees that are coming to America. The friend starts freaking out - what does she say to these people? These refugees have seen the WORST attrocities that one human can inflict on the other - some of them have even been forced to inflict them on others! When the day comes she's thrown off balance because an astonoshing percent (can't remember it exactly but, basically everybody) only want to talk about relationship issues. "My wife and I aren't affectionate anymore", "I met a guy in the last camp but we got transfered and he didn't", "We wanted to be married but our parents were against it".... The examples go on and on. So - in short (haha...) you are not alone! Relationship issues are what we use that extra 90% on. Yep! » Helena on 2009-10-14 05:33:39
