Yeah, I’m losing it. I was thinking how cool it would be to have a telescope and to take it out into the country and look at stars. Then I remembered something I learned in Astronomy that looking at stars is looking into the past – the light takes hundreds, thousands, millions of years to get here. The light takes time to travel, so what you see up there is not happening right now. Which made me wonder about looking at things that are closer, like the moon and the sun. When we look at the moon and the sun, we’re not seeing them right now. Extrapolated further, when you look at anything, you’re not seeing it now. Everything you see is the past, not the present, so we’re constantly looking into the past.
So yeah, four weeks till finals and I’m already losing it.

let's spend a few minutes talking about how a writing desk that has never been used before is not truly a writing desk and has as much potential to be firewood as a writing desk if it never actualizes it's purpose. i got 2 weeks to finals and that is what i have to say.
