So I'm a Biology major and in a Botany class I'm taking this semester we were breaking down the processes behind photosynthesis. In doing this, my processor got to a point in which she said "And to continue any further, we must now examine the nature of light energy." First of all, the way she phrased me made me feel like an apprentice wizard, which is always a great feeling. Second of all, I learned that day that light and energy are amazing and fascinating things. The electromagnetic spectrum is just...so interesting! It made me think about a lot about the state of energy and matter and the bridge between the two and how they are really one in the same and whatnot.

The thing is, whenever I learn something that I find interesting I have the insatiable desire to tell my boyfriend and my closest friends about it. Upon recounting what I'd learned about light, my boyfriend gave me this ridiculous smirk and told me that I sounded like and adorable little hippie stoner.

Ya know, I can't help it if the natural world is the most fascinating and amazing thing ever. How can you not be totally amazed at the fact that we experience various frequencies of the same type of energy on a spectrum in different ways?

Fascinating documentary.

On the topic of human sacrifice, you have to consider the fact that a lot of the documentation about Celtic human sacrifice was written by people who probably saw the Celts as threatening. There are plenty of instances of aggressive activity and the like being largely exaggerated by the enemies of particular civilizations. Propaganda, man.

Seven is my favorite. I guess I'm one of those people. I love the series in general from the beginning until 9. 10 just broke my heart, and not because the story line is sad. Tactics is so loveable because it's difficult.

But, for me, it all comes back to VII. It came out when I was 11 and it's the first FF I ever played and the first game I remember getting REALLY into. It's also got so much to do with religion, politics, morals, and personal development, I have to believe that it shaped a significant part of who I am and I love it for that reason alone.

TNG is undoubtedly my favorite but I also think that DS9 (especially after season 2) is wonderful. I can't decide on a favorite character. I mean, Picard will always be my captain. But I am in love with Gul Dukat. I don't know why, he's just amazing. I love his character development and eventual slip into insanity. I also love Wesley Crusher. I do. I will not apologize for my love of Wesley!

Hello all!

I'm a Psychology student at Queens University in Charlotte and I'm doing a study about cosplay! I need as many as 60 people (both cosplayers and non-cosplayers) to take a short survey. If you're interested, it will take 5-10 minutes to complete and you will be rewarded with my eternal love

Thank you in advance! <3

Here is a link to the survey:
