/Deep thinking on

So, I'm sitting in my wonderfully inspiring philosophy class during a rather dull presentation, and I think: what is is about the people who are presenting that can be so intellectually unmotivating, but yet...they dress "well" and are "hott", so I don't really mind that it isn't great. I'm definatly a beauty enthusiast; I look at these two sorority girls (Delta Zeta) and assume they spend much more time on their bodies and social presence than they do with their intellectual advancement. Now it isn't the fact that they are sorority girls, however, Greek life (and any other organized group of people) does impose a certain facticity upon people. Each memeber's image is part of the reflection of the whole of the group. Now before I ramble on, let me connect these thoughts; The "current" beauty standed is part of the sororities' reflection. Why is it that I value this...well...value?

I've been trying to figure myself out a lot more lately, why I do certain things, and think certain ways. for the sake of you guys knowing what I think; I find that I enjoy beauty, to further push myself to grasp a piece of that beauty.

for instance, seeing something you want (a sexy car, a beautiful house, six pack abs....ahem) and working to achieve or gain that. That's not so deep right?

Well how about this, Why are those values on my list of things to get? are they my values? are they who I am? maybe society has helped to dictate these values to me, but that could just be the "easy" way out. What is it about my essence that fuels me to gain material things, to attempt to improve myself aestetically.

Maybe you can help me figure it out....

/Deep thinking off

as I wrote "deep" I accidentally wrote "Depp thinking off"...which is never true, Johnny Depp is a fantastic actor, and no I don't have a crush on him, you fuckers.

Anyhow I just got back from...about an hour and a half long conversation with 2 of my classmates in philosophy outside my dorm. It was great, Amanda and Nick are very rational thinkers. I wish more people would dive into a philisophical discussion. So next time you're feeling in the mood to ponder life's great mysteries, or you just want to talk about perhaps why the toilet flushes in different directions in different hemispheres....My screen name is usually online, and if not that, my Cell information isn't that far off, we could meet and Be merry...WELCOME TO THE CHINA CLUB (a ching a chung chang, a chang a chung chung chang).

ahhh, good ole Rick James, he'll never let me down.

Holla!
(peace)
