Entry Start Time: 12:40 AM

Based on Esther’s “Senses”.

Two decades. Part of me feels old. Understand that all my friends are younger than me. I can not think of a single friend I have who is older than me. Well, real friend. Sorry, Mister Woof, you’re just not my friend. : P I also accept that I’m not old. I’m older. Youth is effectively coming to a close. High School feels so far away. And this college bullshit? It’ll be over before I really appreciate it. Just like High School. “What do you mean I’m graduating? I just started enjoying myself a few months ago!”

Forget mental growth. Let’s look at twenty years in more physical terms. What is a year? A year is the time it takes the Earth to go around the sun. One full revolution, that is. There really is no time when a year “begins” and “ends”. It’s really arbitrary. It’s just convenient to align our beginning and end with the seasons. We could easily have New Years before Labor Day, to align it with the school year. At least, in the US. It just makes sense to have the mid-section of the year be summer, where most of the life is. The year begins cold, grows warm, such and such. And to our Aussie friends: Well, you guys are fucked. The calendar we use originated on the other side of the equator.

So, twenty trips around the sun. Who decided 21 would be a good age to make things legal? Completely arbitrary, as most things are. But, nevermind that. Twenty trips. Distance from here to the sun is 1.5 x 10^11 meters. Assuming the orbit of the Earth is circular (which is isn’t, it’s elliptical), the length of the Earth’s orbit would be C=2ðr=3ð x 10^11 meters. That’s a lot of meters, dudes. Twenty trips around the sun would be around 20 X 3ð x 10^11 = 6ð x 10^12 meters. I’ll convert that to miles, since most people in the US just can’t think in meters. I use meters in physics, and I’m still not comfortable with it, despite how easy it is to convert units. 1 km = .6214 mi, 6ðx10^9 km x .6214 mi/km = 11713114049.644185110284119590219 = 1.1713 x 10^10 miles. Guess you could say I’ve been around the block. For comparison, the circumference of the Earth is 2.4910 10^7 miles.

Okay, I spend entirely too long on the previous paragraph. Hope I didn’t fudge up the numbers.

I’ve been talking to Princess for the past half hour. Or hour. My mind’s blanking. Well, was. Here’s a topic: What I Want In A Girl. What does Timmy want? Well, I want a relationship that has good communication and honesty. But, those things come with time. What about the girl? Well, I haven’t the slightest idea. All the girls I’ve kissed have been full-figured girls. Of course, I have nothing against smaller girls, they’re cute, too. I want an alpha for my next girl, someone to take control. This because – of course, all the girls I’ve kissed have been rather passive (meaning, I had to take initiative). I’m sick of having to make the first move.

Maybe my standards are too low. Or, maybe I’m just too anal to go out and meet girls. Er. How a girl looks doesn’t matter to me. I seem to like querky girls. There’s usually one thing that makes me raise my eyebrow and go “Hmm”, whether I can name what that thing is, or not.

Princess and I are now talking about religion. *laughs* And, I’m not being offensive at all. I’m asking useful questions. It makes me wonder. Where did all these religions come from? Can all of them be true at once? If you twist certain things, maybe. Maybe… Of course, religion serves no purpose in my life. It just seems so anal to me. “Believe this. Because!”

God is love. Love is blind. Ray Charles is blind. Therefore, Ray Charles is God. And therefore, God exists.

*laughs* I think I’ll copy and paste some other things Kivudet sent to me, just for laughs. You know, fill up the rest of the entry. After you take a course in logic, it is REALLY easy to see through these arguments. Even though they’re logically valid, they are not sound. In a world where God is Love, Live is blind, and Ray Charles is blind, Ray Charles really would be God. The only way that argument is false is if there is a world where God is love, Love is blind, Ray Charles is blind, and Ray Charles not being God. Simple as that. I’m not doing a Logic for dummies course, on with the fun.
