Procrastination

In a true procrastinator's style, I missed the first three days of the New Year in my resolution to post once a day. Oops! Oh well, I'm sure the four of you that subscribe to this blog aren't terribly crushed.

So, a new year means new beginnings. It means new adventures, a new outlook, and sometimes a new physical appearance. All of the aforementioned will be true for me, or ARE true for me now.

New Adventures
Pretty self explanatory. To be specific, however, my bff Bryce bought me (as well as our entire group of friends) a simple Nerf gun revolver for Christmas. Here it is: MAVERICK. This, however, is and was meant to be a gateway gun. Since Christmas, I've already purchased another (FIREFLY) and want to purchase more (LONGSHOT). Ultimately, this will end in small team and large scale free-for-all Nerf battles, inside and outdoors. Hopefully there will be many a picture to document such adventures.

Other new adventures will undoubtedly come and go. I'm sure you'll hear of it.

New Outlook
So, it's not so much as a new outlook as it is just realizing what exactly my outlook is. I'm an objectivist! Hurray! Now, to be more specific...

In a nutshell, as described by Ayn Rand herself (creator of the objectivist philosophy):

1. Metaphysics: Objective Reality
2. Epistemology: Reason
3. Ethics: Self-interest
4. Politics: Capitalism

SIDE NOTE: 11:11! Make a wish!

Anyway. To further understand objectivism, I would like to point you to this wonderful article, from which I took the four points above: ARTICLE.

I really would encourage you to read it, whether or not you believe you'll agree with it. It's always fun to try to understand different outlooks on life. Well, it's fun for me anyway.

And since probably no one will actually read that article, I'll probably explain objectivism more and more in coming posts.

New Appearance
Tomorrow, I'm getting my hair chopped off! It'll go from looking like this:Angry face
(Hi, girlfriend, Delia!) to, well, something I can't show you yet. But I will! Tomorrow. Hopefully. We'll see.

As it so happens, tomorrow is also the point in time where I can take out these crappy sterling stud earrings and start my stretching! 16 gauge, here I come! Thanks to Raquel, of course. By the by, this is kinda my way of asking if you have 16 gauges I can borrow. I already asked you about 12, and I don't remember why I picked 12. Haha. Anyway.

So yeah, I'm pretty excited for the new year. I also have a new semester starting in about, oh, 7 days. 5 new classes. I like learning! Especially about Microeconomics. Well, maybe. We'll see if I like it. You'll certainly know if I do or don't.

ANNNNNNNNNNNYway. In a nutshell, there are my thoughts. Have fun all.

Truly,

David
