i don't really think that things happen for a reason. i think people want to think that way and use it as a coping mechanism and stuff but i think life is pretty...uncontrollable. and definitely how things work in life is incomprehensible.

i don't really like the thought that i could have gone to any university and eventually met people i love as much as my dinos, but maybe. i think if i went somewhere else i would have been shaped in a completely different way. but i didn't really go to butler for any reason. i didn't even want to go.

i don't think big, catastrophic bad things like almost dying in a motorcycle accident happen so things like your family driving more carefully can occur. i mean, that is a byproduct but not reason enough in my mind for the accident to occur in the first place.

i think there are a million different paths our lives can take and all the decisions we make, big and small, determine which way our life goes. i could have made the decision to go to another college, but i would be a different person and my life would be on another path.

this was all more eloquent in my head.

dinos!!!!

just like pledgie said on twitter, i also miss my core. its great having 2 of them here, but its not the same without everyone being together! i miss the other half of the core!!!! boosh:-(

So...

No one ever responded with their thoughts on things happening for a reason. Im just curious about what you guys think.

so i am on the phone with pledge and i tell her about this "all blacks game" post and she looks it up on the blog and all of a sudden she goes "ooooooo..." she was very excited. it was awesome. but i dont think it means what she thinks it means.

Funny!

Releasing roosters onto the rugby field periodically during an All Blacks game = funny.

FUCKING CAT!

The cat just climbed up my face...

you may be asking yourself: "wait El Bin how does a cat climb up a persons face"?

The answer: With its claws. 

Don't worry ice made the bleeding stop and the swelling go down a little. 

Oh and for future reference I would have to say the worst place to have cuts on your face would have to be on your lips.
