Violet Hill


































It was a long and dark December
From the rooftops I remember
There was snow, white snow

Clearly I remember
From the windows they were watching
While we froze down below
(Violet Hill by Coldplay)

Psyche test

 (This is just a short quiz I found on www.spiritual-endeavors.com Probably take about 5 minutes. Try it out if you want)

Read the following questions, imagining the scenes in your mind, and write down the FIRST thing that you visualize. Do not think about the questions excessively.

1. You are walking in the woods. Who are you walking with?

2. You are walking in the woods. You see an animal. What kind of animal is it?

3. What interaction takes place between you and the animal?

4. You walk deeper into the woods. You enter a clearing and before you is your dream house. Describe its size.

 5. Is your dream house open, or surrounded by a fence?

6. You enter the house. You walk to the dining area and see the dining room table. Describe what you see on and around the table.

7. You exit the house through the back door. Lying in the grass is a cup. What material is the cup made of (ceramic, glass, paper, etc.)?

8. What do you do with the cup?

9. You walk to the edge of the property, where you find yourself standing at the edge of a body of water. What type of body of water is it ?

10. How will you cross the water?


This has been a relational psychology test. The answers given to the questions have been shown to have a relevance to values and ideals that we hold in our personal lives. The analysis follows.
1. The person who you are walking with is the most important person in your life.

2. The size of the animal is representative of your perception of the size of your problems.

3. The severity of the interaction you have with the animal is representative of how you deal with your problems (passive, aggressive).

4. The size of your dream home is representative of the size of your ambition to resolve your problems.

5. No fence is indicative of an open personality. People are welcome at all times. The presence of a fence is more indicative of a closed personality. You'd prefer people to not drop by unannounced.

6. If your answer did not include food, people, or flowers then you are generally unhappy.

7. The durability of the material with which the cup is made is representative of the perceived durability of your relationship with the person from number 1. For example, Styrofoam, plastic, and paper are disposable; Styrofoam, paper, and glass (ceramics) are not durable; and metal and plastic are durable.

8. Your disposition of the cup is representative of your attitude toward the person in number 1.

9. The size of the body of water is representative of the size of your sexual desire.

10. How wet you get in crossing the water is indicative of the relative importance of your sex life.

Clyde

This is exactly what Clyde looked like when he was a little birdy. He had these eyebrow looking feathers on the top of his head that made him look like a little old man bird. He got bigger though and his eyebrows fell off but he was still my little old man bird baby. I'll post actually pictures of him soon enough :)

BHS:  Look at yesterday's assignment (Thurs. 10/11) and now that the debate is over. Do some research on news sites (cnn, msnbc, fox news, etc) and tell me what you think about the debate and the coverage of it. Who did better?  There was a lot of talk about it being very heated, confrontational, and even at times rude. Do you agree?
Also - it is called a DEBATE - isn't it suppose to be a little heated because the two debaters don't agree on the issues. That's why we have debates. Do you think the public opinion and the media have been overly sensitive about the candidates' performances?


From the link that I read ( http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/10/laughing-joe-steals-the-show-at-vice-presidential-debate/ ) it mostly talks about how people reacted to Joe Biden laughing during the debate numerous times. The republican's however were not pleased by his "cackling" and thousands of posts went up on twitter about it. I on the other hand think it's humorous and Joe is a cute old man

Ello! :)

Everybody should go make a stumbleupon account. It's this awesome website that helps you "stumble" on to websites that you'd like. If you like say (art, fashion, quotes, cars, etc) just add them as your interests and ta-da! You can start stumbling and finding things you haven't seen before. It's great for when you're bored or you're looking for ideas. http://www.stumbleupon.com
