Opinion? Sorry, I don't do those...
Well, not often anyways...
"I know your destiny. You may ask me any one question, and I will answer it for you."
"Who are you?"
*grins*
And so people call me the cheshire cat...
You've been playing this game of life for too long. Don't you have anything better to do?
Math is stupid. Let me show you why; The classic .9~=1 argument. Does it or does it not?
Given that .9~ is the closest possible number to 1:
Let x equal the absolute value of the difference between .9~ and 1.
x must then be either positive or 0.
If x is positive, x/2 must also be positive, and less than x.
Thus, .9~ + (x/2) is a real number, and is greater than .9~, and less than 1.
But this shows that .9~ is not the closest possible number to 1, violating the first line of the proof.
Thus, x cannot be positive.
Thus, x is 0.
Thus, the difference between .9~ and 1 is 0.
Thus, .9~ = 1
again, Math is stupid...
Alright, enough of that.
People may have been noticing this now, and I think Steve would agree with me best on this, but I realize that I am becoming more assertive lately. According to the handouts I got today, Assertive is better than a Passive doormat (common for young people) or an Agressive ass (common for old people)
So apparently I'm in the mystical, wonderful world between a rock and a hard place. While at times, I may sway from on to the other, back and forth, it seems that it's becoming more stabilized.
I also realized that I am becoming more confident in myself, taking initiative, and actually doing work. Most importantly of all, I'm happy.
And so I chose this song to describe myself currently;
Jesse: The Boxer by Garfunkel and Simon. Though really, Leahy's Call to Dance takes the crown...
Regan: Well, this one may just be the sterotypic mushy song, so sue me. It fits. The song is Only You, by John Lennon
Steve: Well, I could easily pick any Audioslave, RATM, or Soundgarden song, but I think you'll understand why I chose this one. ;) A Change of Seasons, by Dream Theater
Janis: Almost too easy to pick Misfits, but anything less would be an insult... hm... Dig Up Her Bones. (Well who didn't see that one coming, eh?)
Marie: Damn you, and Rachel too. :P One Tin Soldier
Lex: Well, BNL came to mind first, but Tsunami Bomb came to mind second... 20 going on...
Courtney: I'm sorry, I think this one fits rather nicely Cursive - May Flowers
Darien: Must... Not... Say... Mario theme... Okay then, how about that song by Billy Talent - The Ex
Ryannon: Aside from the emo stuff you like, I chose Kittie. It was tough choosing between Paperdoll (I have the metal version not on the CD, if you want it) or Safe
Kyla: Uh, while we're not close friends anyway, I randomly chose: Rilo Kiley - Plane Crash in C
Biff: Well now, AC/DC or Great Big Sea? The eternal question...Back in Black, you newfie
Jordan: Despite the fact they have done a LOT of songs, (and because I wouldn't dare put in the jeopardy theme) here's Chumbawumba's Tubthumping
Mike (Dezzy): Weezer, no question... only question is now... Buddy Holly (we sing it together pretty well, did we?) (This song works well for Regan too... among others)
Adric: Blame your dad for this one. ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man. (Freaky! It just started playing... this is the second time it happened)
Amanda: Anything by Sean Paul. 'Nuff said. :P
Swetha: Er... that song... that was played at the christmas party for the bands... No Doubt...
Anyways, this took me a while. Some names are omitted, because A) I have to go, and B) I didn't include anyone I haven't talked to in the past week or two, otherwise I'd have to include all my old friends (Dave, Kipton, Mike, Shane, Rick, et al...)
Wish me luck at the dinner table. Who knows, I may just end up with a supper reciting Hamlet's soliloquy (or vice versa)

No, Tathiel, you were the SECOND person to notice the Calvin and Hobbes reference. The only thing is that people who know Shakespeare's 'Hamlet' (I'm assuming you're familiar with Hamlet's famous 'To be, or not to be' soliloquy) will think of that before they think of that great Calvin and Hobbes Sunday strip.
I like my song.. look I have song.. I made the list.. I feel .. happy.. which is a good thing.. for me.. Now to actually listen to my song... hm.. and I actually understood the math thing.. which scares me..
Am I the only one who got the Calvin and Hobbes reference at the end. Woooh Calvin and Hobbes rules!!!
Goddamn emo music...
Safe - Great song Jesse! No matter how many emo CDs I might own, my roots will always lay in metal/rock ...
Nice!
"Turned the stone and looked beneath it -
"Peace on Earth" was all it said."
Hmmm... Belleau Wood is another good one too...
Anything is what she is
Anywhere is where she's from
Anything is what she'll be
Anything as long as it's mine
Very good choice Jesse, very very good.
Nice choices...Very nice. I suck at math...;) I hate math too...Makes sense.
I am glad you are happy. Very, very, very glad. Initiative, confidence, stability, and assertiveness are all good things.
The first lines of this post are pure evil. Just to let you know.
*hugs*
Go Jesse... Chumbawumba's Tubthumping. Great song. How'd you know...? *raises eyebrow* =P
Very nice Jesse. Good ol' Change of Seasons. Steve is pleased.
