What if ? # 2
|
Pertaining to my previous entry, I had another question about the mind and the imagination. What if our minds had only limited storage space perhaps like the 250 MB that Hotmail or Yahoo provide? Then we'd probably not be able to think or learn too much as it would fill up our brains to the max and it we'd have headaches if we tried to squeeze more info into our heads!! Well, that would be a major limitation. I couldn't possibly imagine such an existence. In reality, it is a known fact that the human imagination has no size, it surpasses a zillion Gmail inboxes, it is dimensionless. Now, that's a much more comforting statement. The only people who would love to have a limited storage space for their brains would probably be kids, it would be a great excuse for them not to go to school. You can't learn anymore than you can store, right?Yet again, what if??? The possibilities are endless!!
Variety is the Spice of Life! ..What if??

If you've visited my blog earlier, I'm sure you would be able to identify the changes that have been made to it in terms of its appearance. Uh-huh, yep, I'm talking about the template. It now has a more Nature-ish look to it. Well, this is the third template I've changed in almost a week. Well, somehow, there isn't a very big selection of templates here and I'm suffering from a serious case of indecisiveness in selecting the one I want from the existing ones. Not just that, I prefer having a lot changes in my life, sort of like killing monotony and absorbing all the beautiful colours of change that life has to offer and infusing them into something that's stuck in the daily grind.
To me change is more than just a breath of fresh air, it is air itself. I can't imagine my world without it. Change to me doesn't just mean a difference in what I do, I insist on change accompanied by large quantities of individuality, creativity, and uniqueness. I guess they are what one might call the 'essential components of change'. Well, I was just wondering what we'd do if there were no concepts of 'change' or 'uniqueness' or 'creativity' in the world. What if there was no such concept of 'imagination' itself? What if the entire human species pulled a 'freaky Friday on all the other creatures on this planet? What would be the first thought that the other creatures would think when the Freaky Friday Effect would go into effect? Would they even know that they have the capability to think while occupying human bodies? The first Q should have probably been- do they even know what the word 'think' even means? This is something that needs some serious thought.
Just imagine your neighbourhood stray cat and you switching souls!! Hehe, likely possibility- anytime, I mean, c'mon, if it can happen in a movie, why can't it happen in reality (is it really impossible??) unless we consider ourselves to be fools.....since most of us consider the word 'fool' to be an insult-- quoting Napoleon--(The word 'impossible' is in the dictionary of fools.- Napoleon B.) ?!!
In a universe where weirder things are more likely to occur, this seems like a very plain and ordinary occurrence, don't you think?

Today was one of those days when all things seem like carefree butterflies sitting on the petals of yellow flowers. Well, college is pretty much done with for the next 2 weeks, and so is my freshman year, but I have a short Intersession for around 7 weeks from May through June. Getting back to why the day was so dynamite, well, it was that way, thanks to my friends. I'm not sure what it'd be like without them, I don't know what I'd do without them.
If you looked at us today, from outside the glass jar, it would look like 5 teenage girls driving all over town with nowhere in particular to go to; but inside the jar, we felt like happy people having fun on our own, city cruising under the cruel summer sun. We drove all the way from college all the way to the other part of the city to pick up two friends of my friend. Well, that was a pretty 'friendly' drive!! We went totally neurotic with me screaming out the directions, the sound of my other friend's phone ringing...gee, there was a movie plan for the evening and there was a call to her phone every 5 seconds with people calling to confirm whether the plan was really on or not and which movie it was that they were going to, plus, another of my friends making all the funniest faces and singing along with the radio. Gee, inside that Jeep it was like the Big Bang theory in action!!
In between, we stopped at a mall to pick up another of our friends, and after that, there was an argument about whether we should get back to college first, drop her, and then go and pick the other two 'friends' of my friend up, or just go pick them up directly, but in the end, that's what we ultimately did.
It was too late anyway to go back all the way to college, so we headed to the school to pick the others up. By the time I got home, it was almost 3 p.m.. I had a great time, and I hope such days come along more often.
The best part of all that chaos was the chaos itself!! When we grow older, I guess it's such things that we'll miss.
I miss all these little things and arguments we used to have in school. High school was a totally different experience- we experienced all that was experienceable. It is probably one of those doorways in a person's life which stands between where we become who we are and an entirely new dimension of life in which we have possibilities, opportunities, and the REAL life where we must make our own decisions!!! In this dimension, there's only one saying that can be applied - 'Make Hay While the Sun Shines'!
Well, I have passed into this new dimension already!! But, I'm not sure if I'm ready to give up who I was. I guess I still have some time to actually step into the real world where things are totally unpredictable and out of control, so while I'm still in the queue, the only thing I should do is try and make the best of what Time and life have to offer me! :) Right?

This is my first entry! Yay! I can't believe I'm actually doing this-typing my first entry in my very own blog, especially since I've been "planning" on creating a blog for myself since God-knows-when. I feel accomplishment running through my veins this very moment. Hey, what's that I feel, my facial muscles flexxing into a smile as I type this. Any guesses on how success makes you feel!? ;) Lol..boy, am I excited about my new blog!?
Well, I don't really want to make this seem like a 'Hello-this-is-me-and-my-hobbies-are-blah-blah' kinda thing, so I guess, I'm just going to let this be this for the moment-a short and sweet(I hope ;) ) intro entry, you can see me unfurl my mind in my future entries. So, tc and ta for now! =D
