Now to more casual things...

So I'm an avid quiz show person.  I enjoy Jeopardy a lot.  Many weird things have been happening on that show.  There was this guy with this HUGE mane!  It was ridiculous!  Anyway, I do very well with the questions.  They had a Greek category tonight and I got most of the questions right.  For one of them ($1200 I think) I was like, "Darius or Xerxes,"  And then the first guy said Xerxes and got it wrong then the second guy said Darius.  I guess I'm so good that I can guess the wrong answer AND the right answer.  Haha.  And 2 weeks ago on Price is Right, there were 3 double showcase winners.  At least that's what I remember.  It was RIDICULOUS!  It almost never happens.  It was INSANE.  Well, I guess I shouldn't get that excited over it, but I was.  And have you ever seen the flag of Colombia, the country?  It is half yellow, 25% red and 25% blue.  It was the weirdest distribution I have ever seen.


It's just so weird! (Just so you know, I do not aim to offend anyone with this post)

How does it feel...

...to learn that everything you ever knew about yourself you hated.  I mean, I already know that I hate myself.  But just imagine when the pampered person learns that not everything is good in the world.  Or maybe even vice versa.  But it's just weird, because this happened to another person in a book, and I hate myself, so it must happen to others. (Consideration of Universe #347: If it happens to you and it happens in a book, it happens everywhere)  He was in denial.  I think I went through a bout of depression.  But now I'm sort of fine with hating myself.  And when I tell other people they try to make me feel better.  But...I don't know.  I just don't know.  And I suppose that's the point.

Knockoffs of Harry Potter are just not worth it

My evidence being that: Jenny Nimmo sucks.  If she ever read this, she would probably be a little upset.  Sorry in advance for that.  But the Charlie Bone series, by the way, don't read it, is really bad.  She should have stopped after book 3.  Book 4 was alright, but with that book, you just start opening a huge can of worms.  The series would have ended with a party.  Everyone loves parties.  You just don't need good to triumph over evil all the time.  Almost typed ecstasy instead of evil there.  Whoa!  Why do stories want to end happily all the time and have closure?  Some closure is fine, but absolute resolution of the plot sometimes doesn't appeal to me, especially when the resolution is just way too hard to conceive of under the current circumstances.  Even with the Harry Potter series, you just can't keep track of all the solutions to a problem.  Whatever happened to time-turners?  And certain weird occurances just don't make sense.  These people do not know how to truly create their fantasy world.  It seems like you almost have to live in that world to truly conceive of it.  Like acting.  Whoever said that sanity was a requirement of being an artist anyway?
