I just wanted to drop a line and say that I have been listening to the new Foo Fighters Album and it is great!!! You need to check this out if you are a fan of guitars and drums, and meaningful vocals and lyrics. Also I have been listening to Kate Nash, Lily Allen, and Paramore. Also check out "A Fine Frenzy." I need to add a sample of one of them as soon as I figure out how to do so. If someone knows how let me know! Thanks
Joseph Smith said "knowledge is necessary to life and godliness." To be like God, we must gain and pursue knowledge. What kind of knowledge? I would say knowledge that leads to salvation. However, I do not believe that any knowledge will hurt or hinder our trek toward salvation, unless we seek after that knowledge that detracts from light in our lives. Joseph Smith also stated "God has more power than all other beings, because He has greater knowledge." Nothing could be more correct. Knowledge truly is power. How we exercise that power will have a lot to do with how we are judged when we stand before God after this life. I encourage all to seek after the knowledge that brings salvation, and I promise that the Holy Ghost will deliver the knowledge that will bring light into your life.
That is correct, it is the last semester. I feel much like I felt about a month before law school. I am anxious to get on with my life. I feel like I am in limbo. I feel stuck. I am ready to move on and leave law school and actually start a career. I don't know how much law I will really practice, but I do know that I have benefited from my education. I don't feel smarter (I really don't know what that would feel like). I am a true believer that THE MORE YOU LEARN THE LESS YOU KNOW. This is true because the more your eyes, mind, and heart are opened to knowledge the more you realize that there is so much more out there than you thought there was. This is exactly how I felt as I read Tolstoy. I am addicted to learning, but what I really think I am addicted to is having my eyes opened. I know that there are other law students reading this blog, please leave your thoughts through the comments section. Thank you
I know that this title seems a little strange but I think the word oppression makes sense. I have been thinking a lot about the world and the influences that are in it, and how those influences affect each of us, including me. The using of the word "neighbor" means all that are around you. I am highly affected by my neighbors. I wish that I was not. I yearn for knowledge. But do I want knowledge for the right reasons? Do I want knowledge because I think it will make me money? Do I want knowledge because I think that it will make me more accepted? Or do I simply want knowledge because those that I look up to have it? This is one example of how we are oppressed or freed by our neighbors. I will benefit from this want, no matter the root of it. So in a way the oppression has become a benefit, or maybe later it will become a detriment. Each influence will be different. I encourage all to seek after those things that bring light into their lives. Truly find out who you are. Ask yourselves the hard questions.
I was not sure what to write about today. I have not written in a while. One thing that has been interesting about this Christmas season (when it comes to gift giving) is that there are no new items that are the "it" item. The Wii is hot again this year, along with the flat screen t.v. (Plasma and LCD). Apple did come out with the Ipod Touch but there has been plenty of those to feel the demand. The ipod touch is a really cool item, but it is just a iphone without the phone capabilities. Therefore, if I was going to get one, I would rather have the iphone for the same price.
I thought that I wanted Rock Band for Christmas but I have read some reviews, and seen some video on Youtube that makes me not want to buy it. I guess there are some "kinks" that still need to be worked out when it comes to the drums. Buyer beware! I rented Guitar Hero III, and it was AWESOME. Guitar Hero III has been hard to find in stores, especially with the wireless guitar. I bought some early in the season and was able to make a $50 profit on all of them.
Overall, I hope my wife loves what I got her for Christmas. I would list what I got her but I have a suspicion that she would read this blog sometime before Christmas morning. To all that read this, have a great holiday. No matter what religion you are, or what you believe, I hope you can find some peace during this great time of the year.
Yes it is true, I do have a few of these! I have been lucky enough to find these at the great Wal-Mart! If you want to buy one from me, they are $330 plus $30 shipping. Just email me and I can invoice you through Paypal or Google Checkout. This will be the hottest Christmas item of 2008! It was last year, and it will be this year! They are quite fun! I have really enjoyed it every time I have played one. These Wiis that I am selling are still sealed and brand new, and they include 5 games! This is perfect for the kids! Let me know. If you want to make sure that I am legit, check me out on ebay, my name is nfootball2032. I have sold items before, and just wanted to see if I could sell any through my blog. If not, no big deal, I will sell them on ebay! Thanks for looking and reading my blog, and don't forget to leave a comment.
