Everything in Moderation

Feeling: happy
Bloody hell, Sorry folks. I'm really sorry about yesterdays entry. I turned things off and forgot I didn't finish becuse I was in a rush and such. Had a party to go to yesternight, it went well- kinda. I really enjoyed myself. Haven't enjoyed myself or had that feeling since... well, it's been a long time; almost forgot what it felt like. I find it extremely how forty-five minutes can change your out-look on a six hour party. It's really funny how the human mind can work. Sometimes it just remembers the good things and forgets the bad... and conversely it can do the exact opposite; forget the good things and remember only the bad. Much like anything else it can either be our good friend, or our own enemy. Our lack of control over it can either be our strength or our weakness, it all depends on the circumstances.The human mind, our instincts, our drives... all such an interesting thing. Although I believe Freud's psychoanalysis of the ego superego and id could never be 100% perfect. Naturally if humans are involved in anything, nothing can be 100% because of the fact that we are not perfect and thus anything we create will be flawed, in this case, his theories. I'm not discounting his brilliance, nor am I disclaiming the fact that in his theories lay an element of truth, but these things - ego, superego, id... very complex things which we may never be able to fully decode. I really ought to stop this rambling it might give you guys the wrong impression of me and that would be a not so good thing. Though I'm not too sure what you folks think about me as it is so maybe I've got nothing to worry about, or perhaps I do but I shall never know. So how was your day today? Mine's been alright I guess - all 2 hours of it thus far. I've got a headache due to a lack of sleep but thats not your problem. I ought to go grab some tylonal for this, but I'll do that after I'm done here, I don't want to loose my train of thought like yesterday. It would be bad to leave you great people hanging like last time, I apologize for that. At any rate, I'm sitting here with one of my brimmed hats on - it mathces what I'm wearing though what I'm wearing doesn't quite match in itself; how that works I shall never know. Oh wait, I'v got an explaination here: the concept and colours work well, but the style of each article of clothing doesn't necessarily go with anything else, per say. Oh yea! There we go, that's much much better. I hate leaving thing unexplained so hopefully that enlightened you. If for any rason it only made you more confused then just disregard this minute section. By "minute" I don't mean sixty seconds, but instead the word which comes from the french word "minute" [accent on the 'e'] meaning: small or petite. It's funny how words can be like that. And I mean more then just words like "live" or "read" I'm talking about things like... blast, I can't think of a good one. What about "wind" - there we go. That's one I guess. It's either wind as in "breeze" or wind as in to "crank" or a "bend" and for those of you who are really good at this it can be used to describe a persons vanity. English - great people but a seemingly complex language. Not as straight forward as chinese or japanese. Even spanish is more simplistic; not in a bad way - it's just easier to speak with less side roads and back alleys. Not filled with as much slanguage as English. Now you know your language is filled with too much slang when they have a slang dictonary... or maybe you know your company is going under when you have to produce one of those. But I enjoy the English language; it may not be one of the languages of love lke french, spanish or italian, but I feel as though our language is one of the languages whereby if you have a good handle on it you can truly express practically any emotion, feeling, thought... anything. I'm sure that everybody would say that about their own native or perhaps a different language and although I'm sure this be the truth, I think ours has a slight advantage over the majority of the others. And going back to the slang - I'm thinking that it can actually be beneficital. Yes, I just said slanguage can be a good thing [treasure that because I'll never say anything like this again - ever.] It's basically an unofficial yet understood extention of a language which can provide people with a greater vocabulary and even more words to use in their arsenal. See, the chart of the english language goes a litle something like this: "Slanguage" at one end, "Enlish" in the middle and "Political Correctness on the other far end. I shall demonstrate with a line chart. |--Slanguage----------------------English----------------------Politcal Correctness--| See what I mean here folks? It's just great isn't it? Oh pipe down with your sarcasm :oP Now that I look back I'm trying to figure out how on earth I got here, on this topic? Oh well, no sweat here - it's not the most important topic ever, but it takes up space and it is something that's on my mind so I can talk about it... kinda... maybe... please don't hurt me *whimper* Alright, so in conclusion 1. We require a lot more time to decode the human mind; for it is both good and bad. 2. The english language is great, if you know how to use it properly. 3. Slanguage is not necessarily a bad thing, if you know how to use it properly All of a sudden I feel like I'm writing a bloody essay here. Oh, Oh, maybe I ought to come up with some kinda great quote to end it all but tie it together. Let me think. *pauses* here we go. Language, slanguage and the human mind (which do not appear to be greatly related) all need to be used in moderation and to the right extent. It is imparitive to find the right balance in anything we do in life but with especially with the three items aforementioned. Much like "without love intelligence is dangerous; without intelligence love is not enough." Written by: -Captain B. Thoughts

I agree with your language theory. And yes, slnaguage can be a good if not great thing, but only when used properly. I wuz lyk up in da hud dawg. If I never saw somethign along the lines of that again in my life, I must say I'd die content. (No hate mail anyone who reads this) Anyway, just stopped by to say hi, and I lied your entry today, it really made the wheels in my head turn as I read...:O)
