The Sun Whose Rays Are All Ablaze

This poem, written by Arthur Sullivan and W.S Gilbert for The Mikado, is currently my favorite poem. It has a nice aura to it. Everyone should check it out! 

The sun, whose rays
Are all ablaze
  With ever-living glory,
Does not deny
His majesty--
   He scorns to tell a story!
He won't exclaim,
   "I blush for shame,
   So kindly be indulgent."
But, fierce and bold,
In fiery gold,
   He glories all effulgent!

I mean to rule the earth,
   As he the sky--
We really know our worth,
   The sun and I!

Observe his flame,
That placid dame,
   The moon's Celestial Highness;
There's not a trace
Upon her face
   Of diffidence or shyness:
She borrows light
That, through the night,
   Mankind may all acclaim her!
And, truth to tell,
She lights up well,
   So I, for one, don't blame her!

Ah, pray make no mistake,
   We are not shy;
We're very wide awake,
   The moon and I!

Bunnyphobia

I didn't know this a real thing, I'm so sorry.

It is called leporiphobia.


This actually happened. Wow.

Again, I am very sorry Ms. Dixon. I didn't mean to scare you.

Having a job is making me fat

I have recently been employed at the cutest, most amazing fast food restaurant ever!

Although I am really happy and proud of myself, there is something that has begun to bother me. I have begun eating way too much.

I no longer have to ask my mom for money to buy ice cream, chips, or other foods that are clearly not good for me. Now, I simply buy it myself.

This is the sort of independence that requires a level of responsibility and self control that I don't seem to have yet.

What's worst is that at my break, I am always offered free food (by my employer and other people at the food court) and there is no possible way to say no.

I'm sure I will eventually have to have an intervention of some sort with my fellow coworkers and ask them to keep me from eating them out of business.

Pi Day

Happy Pi Day, fellow bloggers!


Next year, Pi Day will be the best ever! It will fall on 3/14/15 and the first five digits of Pi are 3.1415. Can't wait!

Reasons why Napoleon Dynamite is possibly the best movie ever made

7. The movie has a very timeless feel to it. The year it is supposed to take place is never mentioned or implied. They've got internet but dress as if they were imported from the 80's. This movie have take place at any moment in the past 30 years, making it likable to people of all ages.


6. The Napoleon Dynamite soundtrack is one of the most quirky and upbeat movie scores I have ever heard. It's also easily distinguishable. Every time you hear it, you will think "Napoleon Dynamite".

4. Vote for Pedro t-shirts

3. There is no swearing, gross innuendo, or nudity. It's a campy family movie that is funny and witty at the same time. Very rare.

Valentine's Day





A poem for Leia

Hey there little bunny
You smell like oats and honey
Today you are my valentine
Because you don't have a choice

You will watch Napoleon Dynamite with me
Then ill make you listen to me sing
Sounds great, doesn't it?
Happy Valentine's Day

Why is Leia cute?

There's no denying it; Leia is cute. In fact, most small animals are perceived as cute.

Have you ever wondered why? Why do we "aww" when we see kitties play fighting but cringe at the sight of a cockroach?

The reason is, all these small innocent-looking creatures remind us of our potential offspring.

The resemblance is uncanny.

What is "cute"?
A creature with a small body size in comparison to its head, large eyes and soft facial features
***Like a baby

What happens when we see something cute?
We become instinctively protective and nurturing over things that remind us of babies 
  • may be more common among women who have not yet reached menopause (as indicated by an experiment conducted by Sprengelmeyer)
  • Triggered by things that resemble babies

Cute things cause the nucleus accumbens to release dopamine

Cute things induce the same reactions that cocaine does

How can we be cute like Leia for the rest of our lives?
It's not that hard, we just have to look like babies for the rest of our lives.

Better explanation than mine:
