I love TED talks.

It's one of the best I have seen.

I also do love dogs.

Why Midterms suck...

1. 2 days before the exam, you can’t find your book.
2. When you actually locate it, you realize that you don’t have material for half the subjects
3. You call up your friend who lives nearby. She doesn’t have it either.
4. After gathering all the relevant material, you look into the pages and wonder how in the world are you going to remember all of this. 
5. You don't sleep. 
6. When the results do come out …and you realise the whole ordeal was not worth it.

Cute Puppy...

According to Youtube...

Everyone should know code.

and everyone should watch this video. 

This is an awful week and probably next week too. So this is all you get. Happy Midterms everyone!

Curiosity Killed the Creative Cat

My dog Franklin. 

Ok now to what I am really going to talk about. 

I have been thinking about this for a while, but our education system does not prepare us (students) for when we graduate. 

This guys long story short this guy talks about how to school system kills creativity. 

I believe that creativity is needed in today's society. New solutions require creative people. Same thoughts same results. We need new to have better. For me it simple, but we are still taught that different is bad. Creativity is seen as something that is good, but no one tries to get their students to be creative. Thus, we are push out to the real world with no creativity. 

Of course there are exceptions, but I hope you somewhat see my point. 

Did you know...

1. There are more than 2,400 species of fleas in the world.
2. Lions cannot roar until they reach the age of two.
3. Tarantulas can live to up to 30 years.
4. The dot above the letter "i" is called a "tittle".
5. The emu cannot walk backwards.
6. 1 out of 20 people have an extra rib.
7. There are more chickens than there are people in the world.
8. A group of frogs is called an Army.
9. Celery had negative calories. It takes more calories to eat and digest than the calories it has.
10. Women blink nearly twice as much as men.

Good Stuff. Hope everyone has an inspirational week!

Hello fellow classmates,

I was not sure what to blog about, so I have decided to do it on whatever strikes my attention for the week. It may be boring, or funny. I'm not sure yet, but either way I hope you enjoy!
And by the way I love puppies.
