No Title.

So, i havnt made a post in a quick sec and i really should be doing some studying right now, but i have decided this is more important. The other day me and one of my best friends Kenny were having a discussion. It started off light and breezy, but we ended up getting into it when the topic of Obama came up. Kenny, like many other Americans, blindly supported Obama without knowing much about what he really did or his economic plans.(please take note, i do not totally hate obama, and i am not saying that is what ALL of his supporters do, but you cannot disagree that a strong many of them do blindly follow him) He had heard obama talking about tax breaks, and giving back to the poor and health programs so he thought he was a good guy. As the conversation went on, I went to point out that, 1. We had just ellected a president who did cocain(and everybody openly knew about it) 2. We had ellected a man who said he stood for the little guy, yet said in a video that he would wipe out the american cole industry if he had the chance, destroying a hell of a lot of jobs 3. Somehow planned to reduce taxes, and increase government spending? who knew such a magical man existed that he could pull money straight out of his ass?.
Anyways, I think obama will still make a decent president as long as he does not send us into an economic recesion. If he can manage to improve our economy and restore jobs, he will have my vote in the next ellection.
Now more importantly, I came to wonder why people will blindly argue over an issue they know nothing about. I myself have done it before, theirs no denying that. But why?? why do we interfere with friendships and other people just so that we can make a point we know nothing about? ergggg all this thinking is going to make my head explode.
OK people one more why for the night and im done. I was just also wondering why do people progress through life in the diffrent ways that they do. What makes us want to be remembered? What makes us want to further our own decaying disease of a civilization? What is it that keeps all of us going everyday? Ignorance? Blind ambition without cause or reason? Or, is it just in our blood as human beings for some of us to be all we can be or to sit and rot and do drugs or to simply live out our lives being happy? And what is the point of all my goddamn wondering? I should go get another job if i want to type all this garbage.

Don't Ask

Violence. Thats what gets the job done.

So their i am today, relaxing and talking to people in my 9th period, when this girl jessica comes up and decides she wants the window closed. I however, enjoyed the breeze and was already standing in front of it. So instead of asking me to close it, or just going somewhere else, she decides she is going to try and push the window down while im holding it open. When unsuccessful, she decides to slap me across the face, close the window, and walk away.
I am left standing their wondering, why do humans turn to violence for such a meaningless little thing when they could just as easily walk away? I know for a fact that i would not slap somebody across the face for the simple fact that they were keeping a window open.
On a diffrent note, i have to admit i love to be violent. I love fighting, and wrestling, and boxing and all of that good stuff. Don't get me wrong, i dont start any fights and i dont pick on people, but its just fun. Not just hitting but being hit, i love the whole experience. And thats not to say that i love to be hit, i just need it to keep me excited in a fight, otherwise its no fun if its all one sided. Wow, where is my mind today? not entirely sure, but my face still hurts -_-
In conclusion, violence is the simplest way to complete a task. simply hurting someone or taking what you want from them by force is alot easier then getting it the "right" way. but then again what is right and wrong but false human morals that keep an already falling apart society together? Ahhh just some food for thought.
if your reading this, leave me some comments let me know what ya think-

MICHEAL NEWMAN

this kid is the best and it is just today that i am relizing it. what propels him to help me whenever i decide to call him or just to randomly come to my house to entertain me is beyond my knowledge. all i no is this kid is fucking awesome. props to you mike newman. hahahaha.

So many thoughts going threw my head..lol

I also wonder why people seem to cling to one quote, or one rule that they live on. this just bars you down. even when its multiple ideas, you just end up restricting yourself with these ideas in the end. you must learn to live free and be constantly adapting? i think? i really dont know.

Insults

Insults seem to be the most common human reflex to something that bothers them. when someone feels insecure or threatened, they often try to gain power over people by using these. WHY? i just dont seem to understand it. it could be just me but im happy being me. i dont need power over anyone else. i have my own strength, speed, and intelligence to rely on. so is it when people lack in these areas that they begin to insult others. ughh. its just something that always gets on my nerves to see people making fun of other people.

Following

Don't ask why, but i always seem to be wondering what it is to break away from the pack. One of the biggest problems i have when thinking about this is what does it truly mean to be different? It seems to me that it is human nature to both blend in and attempt to stand out. So can you really do such a thing? control the crowd you seek to fix yourself into? And even so, in leading the majority, you are part of the majority aren't you? You can never deviate from their thoughts too much, or you will remove yourself from the group, and lose the trust of such masses. But leading really doesnt set you apart now does it.
Also, why do people attempt to change their physical appearance to seem different? To stick out in such an odd fashion? I just wonder why. I try to model my own appearance on what i see that i like, the appearance of both power and rebellion, but not enough so that i seem weird. I dont think i would enjoy dealing with that kind of stress.
In my attempts at finding an answer i also wondered, does trying to be different in every way possible really make you different? Or does it really make you just like everyone else who's trying to pull away from the group, thus taking you out of one grouping of people, and placing you right smack in another.
In the end ive come to the conclusion that it doesn't pay to try and be different. Be who you want to be, whether thats what everyone wants you to become, or whether its the opposite of everyone else. In the end disagreeing for the sake of disagreement does not do anything for you, so you must learn to do what you want and what makes you happy, because you get one life to live, after that its game over.

Wow, I made a blog?

yupp. honestly id wanted too since i first saw one of my friends do it. i am the absolute worst when it comes to remembering my own thoughts and ideas, so im hoping this will help me out. i guess this is kind of the introduction to my blog and my first post. soo lets first lay down some ground rules.
1. I'm Derek
2. I'm weird, yea i have no problem with it
3. My posts may occasionally seem enlightening, but probably will seem like im spouting nonsense and garbage, which very well could be the case
4. What is posted here is mostly going to be my own philosophies and my learnings in life, so feel free to steal my ideas
5. This is going to probably get very odd at points
6. You might want to not read this stuff if your not interested in the mindless ponderings of a 16 year old boys mind, just a head up(i do however have 1/2 a brain in my head, so no worrys.)
