I believe in America. I believe that it EXISTS.

I think I’m going to try blogging stuff about my life and stuff more often, and stuff.

I was invited to a surprise 21st birthday party on Facebook, so I joined the group and quickly realized I could not go. Although the party has been over for quite some time, the group still exists, so I occasionally upload a picture of a pseudorandomly chosen fruit sliced open.

I don’t really think I’m going to do all that well in my classes this semester (I don’t really know how I’m doing now, because it’s impossible to tell what your grade at any given point in most of my classes). I could be doing poorly because I took a semester off, or perhaps because the classes I’m in are, for lack of a better word, retarded. I do enjoy my Design I class, although it’s not particularly challenging, and my Random Processes class is okay, but the teacher is terrible and I think I got between a 20 and 30 percent on the last test. Oh, and my Anthropology class is pretty cool, but it feels awkward, reading PowerPoints and taking multiple-choice tests (ROFL HIGH SCHOOL).

The plan is to graduate in Spring 2010 despite my semester off, unless I “fuck up”, in which case I’ll be graduating the following Fall.

I like the cello a lot. I’ve finished the first movement of the Haydn Concerto in C, and am starting to work on the Saint-Saens Concerto in A minor; I’ll probably get to the other movements of the Haydn later. Yeah.

A lot of people have been complaining about Lost lately. Common complaints are “It raises more questions than it answers”, “WTF Time Travel?”, and “Hurley was in this Hardees commercial“, the last of which only improves the Lost experience.

Those of you who have taken a University-level Physics class may know that time travel isn’t that implausible; wormholes, which arise as solutions to Einstein’s field equations, would allow someone to travel “through” the fabric of spacetime, and thus travel through time. Lost loosely makes use of this wormhole theory (One end on the island, the other end in Tunisia), though the wormhole has to be “held open” by some sort of “exotic matter” to be traversable by a human being. I think I vaguely remember this being mentioned in an episode. At any rate, it’s less far-fetched than other Sci-Fi I’ve seen.

I will admit that there are many unanswered questions in Lost, but that bugs me considerably less than the unanswered questions in the real universe. I at least, to some extent, expect closure from Lost. The reason I watch Lost is very simple: It grabs my attention, and keeps me interested. I stop watching a show when it begins to bore me, and Lost has not done this yet.
