When you figure out that your life consists of obsession after obsession...

So. Hi.

Last week, I saw a picture on the wonderful thing that is the Internet. It said: That moment when you realise that your life is basically obsession after obsession.

I must say, it consumed my thoughts for a few moments before I figured it out. But first, lets digress for a moment or two, shall we?

What is the meaning of Life? The question on everyone's lips. I figured it out quite a while ago, but it still confuses me quite greatly. The meaning of life is reproduction. I came up with this answer. But if this is the answer, why all these unneeded emotions? Why would we need grief, or jealousy, or sadness, or any of these silly emotions? I think that we will never fully know, or understand, the full potential that Life holds, or the things that it gives us.

Wow. That got deep.

Now, back to my original statement. That moment when you realise that your life is basically obsession after obsession. The context that this was in was meant for fandoms (eg. Tributes, Potterheads, Whovians, Twihards,... you get the picture.), but I thought about it a little more in-depth.

So I started thinking about what actually defines an obsession.

Here's what I think: An obsession is something that you are constantly aware of. It takes up a lot of your thoughts at any one time. You can't stop thinking about it. You follow it's every move, every day, to the point that it may become creepy.

Like I'm obsessed with a five person a Capella group called Pentatonix.

Anyways! What? Oh, right. What is an obsession. So... an obsession can be about anything, about anyone. So, why couldn't we be obsessed with life??

Well, we are.

I don't particularly want to abide by the rules. I want to go live out bush, hunt animals and live off the land.

With Wi-Fi. And electicity. But anyway.

Our obsession with life is reaching a breaking point. We have medicine, and we all know how to live and eat healthy. We do this because Society tells us to. We have become very afraid of Death, in his black cloak and long scythe. We have become attached to Life, because Society has given us too many things to want to live for. They have told us about the ideals that everyone wants. That everyone can HAVE! As long as you do a select number of things that are actually really hard to accomplish.

So, I have deduced that our only obsessions are Life, Death, and wanting to conform to Society. Because Society is good. And 'awesome'. And everything Life is. SOCIETY ISN'T GOOD. They send out bad messages. Sneakily.

But that's a different post.

Over and out, me.

#1- I'm Going to be The One That Rants.

Everyone has a pet peeve, if not many. I am one if those that has many things that get on my nerves. As it happens, I get annoyed quite a bit. If you would be so kind to let me rant each week, I will get annoyed at various things like a civilized person. Starting now.

WHEN ELECTRONIC DEVICES LOSE YOUR EVERYTHING.

So. This literally happened to me while trying to update recently. This was going to be about Politeness, Opinions and something else that I hadn't come up with. I had worked on the post that was becoming something, and I had been working on it for about a week and a half, slowly adding things as they came to my head. I was about halfway through it.

Apparently that was a great time to screw up.

There is an app for this [Blogger] for those of you that don't know.

Now, pretty much any app that involves save files stuffs up at some stage.

Whyyyyyyyyyy?! Why must it do that thing where it just decides to be a pain in the butt and delete everything that you have as a draft? Drafts are very important things!! People don't just sit down and write everything we do in one go! We aren't perfect! Drafts are things we use to put down ideas, to edit those ideas, and then a draft is no more. Then, we copy the draft and make a final copy. If that made sense.

But no, computers are perfect and we are the weaklings that created them.

OH MY GOD. I HAVE JUST COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE  ROBOT REVOLUTION HAS ALREADY BEEN STARTED. THE ROBOTS ARE TAKING OVER. PEOPLE STUCK TO THEIR PHONES ARE GOING TO BECOME THE ROBOTS' MINIONS. THE SUPERIOR BEING IS FINALLY TAKING OVER.

Crap.

Anyhow, considering I got slightly off topic just now, the computer losing stuff thing is serious.

FOR EXAMPLE::

"Hey Loise! Do you have that Geography stuff about stuff that was our assignment?"
"Oh, yeah I do, on my USB, but I'll double- check it on a laptop laterrrr."

*IN GEOGRAPHY LATERRRR*

"Hey Loise! Have you got that-"
" YES JOHN. I'll check it out now...."

*GETS ON LAPTOP AND PLUGS IN USB*

Louise:"FUUUUUUUUUUU-"
*FLIPS A TABLE*
*AND JOHN,  FOR GOOD MEASURE*

^^^ WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?!?!
I FEEL LIKE RAGE-QUITTING LIKE LOUISE. I don't actually know anyone named Lousie, just so you know. Or John.  Random names are important. JUST LIKE DRAFTS. And backing up all of your work. Not joking, I keep forgetting to do it, but it us one of the most useful things you could learn for life----

~~IT'S BAACK.
MY BEAUTIFUL POST IS BACK.
THE POLITENESS AND OPINIONS AND WHATEVER I HADN'T DECIDED ON YET.

THANK YOU TO MY WIZID ADMIN GRACE, FOR USING YOUR MAGICAL PRESENCE TO FIX THE COMPUTER/ELECTRONIC DEVICE/ ROBOT THAT LOST ALL MY EVERYTHING AND FOR BEING A WIZID. I LOVE YOU.

I ALSO WANT TO THANK MY MOM--

No. But really, what point does this post have now? Not a lot.~~

Q: So, what have we learnt today?
A: People named John are annoying;  USB's are very important; Computers are already taking over the world; and DON'T USE APPS WITH SAVE FILES.

Thinking about it, this wasn't very helpful or productive. Oh well.

IT'S SOMETHING.

DON'T BECOME THE COMPUTERS' MINIONS WHILE I'M AWAY.

Kate.

Yet another introduction. We'll get to the interesting stuff soon, promise.

  Hi guys. Sorry about this. You probably are getting sick of the intros by now. I don't blame you.

  My name is Kate. I'm fifteen; pretty close to the middle of being a teenager. I have a TWIN sister-Lara, who is part of this blog also- who is very....... uh................sisterly. As we sisters are.
I like most animals,  I don't get too scared easily, and I love music. All sorts. Usually.

I use logic quite a lot. I'm not afraid to say what needs to be said. I think that it's easier to go about life when you're alone, but I know that if you're alone, life gets really difficult when times are tough. I LOVE KATANAS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS ABOUT THEM, BUT THEY ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO MY EYES.
                       (......what's wrong with me?)

I don't like bullies. I hate it when you go to say something, and then completely forget what you were going to say! Ugh.
I can actually be quite artistic at times. But in what ways?

I love to sing. I have tried writing songs before, but that's not really my forte. I read other people songs and their lyrics, and I hear what the song wants me to hear, and a bit more. Cause that's just me.

Occasionally I get really artsy and draw. And when I get in the mood to draw, I really am pretty good. And creative. Not fantastic, but good enough to say, "I can draw!". I love the "pieces" I have managed to produce-nothing special, you know, the scrap pieces of paper you start to scribble on, unknowingly beginning some crazy pretty sword you wouldn't have been able to produce under the usual circumstances.

I like to read and write- I love the way words come together on a page to create a story, whether it be the beginning or the end; to create something magical.
To encourage people to think.
Hey, maybe that's why I want to be a part of this blog? To create something that I see as beautiful.
(I guess we'll never know...)

And I get really philosophical at times. If you haven't noticed.

So. Sorry that was so long. You can wake up now that I'm done with my boring personality analysation for you. Hope I don't bore you people to your death. Hey, how about that:
DEATH BY BOREDOM.
That's new.

Anyway, hope you enjoy my philosophical posts from now on!!
                   ..........or just the craziness that is in my head......................

But I'm actually done now. Until next time!

Kate.

Welcome to the World of Jack Anthony Williams!

Right. This seems to be the popular thing now days, so it's my turn!

Good Morning, my name is Jack Anthony Williams! Obviously the best name is existence.

I'm a gamer and technology enthusiast.
<----That's me!

I'm 15 years of age from NSW Australia and go to a school filled with people!

I love my PC. I love building PC's. I've built around 25 in my life.

I Actually think I have A.D.D because I keep changing subjects.

Ok friends. I have some of them apparently like Lara and Grace who are the lead producers on this blog. I'm here for the fun and the experience of writing a blog.

I'm also a drummer and guitarist if that makes our relationship any better. My two major influences in my playing has to be Matt Halpern of Periphery and Tosin Abasi of Animals As Leaders. These two Djentlemen are my biggest influences and I hope I can meet them one day.

So there you go. That's me. Simple right. I'm an easy guy to get along with. I can be a bit retarded but that's on the warning label.

And now. A picture to lead off with.

I'm Grace.

Sooo...

After Lara's amazing introduction, I felt like I should introduce myself as well, even if it is a little bit late.

I'm Grace. 

DONE!

Nope. That won't do...

I'm Grace and I like to do my descriptions in a string of words like...

Books, dancing, cupcakes, drawing, YouTube, writing, singing, craft, sleep, cheese, blogging, talking...Did I mention cupcakes?

And that's pretty much me. You can see why Lara and I are friends, can't you? 

Well this really short but...anyway.

Hope to talk to you (through blog) soon.

Grace. 

Hello! So, this is me...

Hello, readers.

My name is Lara, and I obviously love to write.

Hold up, I should introduce myself better...

Start over.

Goodaftermorneveningday, Inhabitants of Earth!!

I am a teenager with the name 'Lara', and I am a writer!!

Hmm... Much better.

So, for a little more of an intro, I have always loved to read. Which has lead to my love of writing. I also love to sing, which my friends tell me I'm good at.

I tend to not take compliments well, and I actually LIKE my teachers (Most of them, anyway!!). I am interested in a lot of technology-related things (Think computers, electronics, ...etc!!), and I also like music (Obviously!).

Well then... what else??

Ah!

I did National Novel Writing Month for the first time last year! Probably needless to say, I didn't reach 50 000 words. I plan to do it again this year, and, unlike last time, I will ban myself from the Internet. Hopefully, I can do that.

I am also what some of you would call a 'nerd'. I also like to have long debates with myself, and usually win. If that is physically possible.

Anyways, back to the purpose of this post. To introduce myself!!

But, I have nothing more to say. Wait-- I do.

I'm new to this whole 'blogging' thing. I haven't done it before. So hopefully I'll get it right.

So, now that you know a little about me, Hi!
