This is an insane world-so what?

Well, last week was gorgous and this week is rainy rainy and believe you when i say that it wasnt like this when i awoke this morning, it was quite dry, but now the heavens have opened up and there is a torrential downpour, in case you were wondering what teh weather was this week. so by now yoiu alll know about my carreer develpoment class that is providing me with infinite wisdom about life and is giving me serious material for this blog. so this week we had a speaker come tell us about studying abroad and i was like hello..been there done that ..twice..he's telling us how cool it is that you can get credits while abroad and experience the culture of the country...learn the language...blah blah blah...whatever man...so then after his presentation we all got into a circle and had to discuss what we thought were the negative feedbacks that we got from the class, since we all had to do group presentations...how did we think the class responded to our presentations basically.. anyway

Science lessons!

Its a beautiful day in the neighberhood..wont you be mine? its stunning outside here  and i just thought ya'll should know, the hardest part of these things is knowing how to start, once i start i'm fine i keep going and going (just like a duracell battery) but thats the hard part, its the law of intertia an object at motion stays in motion an object at rest stays at rest. its amazing how much mussar and hashkafa can be learned from science, i could just expan on that right now for about two pages but i have another science lesson for you today. currently i am learning about the respiratory system. even the people who arent science majors know that teh basic function of the respiratory system is allowing us to breath. the scientific terms for this is inspiration(inhalation) and expiration(exhalation). you can see for your self that this is gonna get me going (besides the cgoffe nad the fast music just help make it all go faster) inspiration is an active process, though we do
