I decided to go for a drive around the lake

and look what i found?!?!

One of my teachers started class with this story yesterday.

The Jar

A science teacher was teaching his philosophy class when he pulled out a glass jar full of golf balls.

“Is the jar empty?” He asked his class.

“Yes” they all seemed to answer hesitantly.

The professor then pulled out a bag of pebbles and poured them into the jar. Once again he asked his class if the jar was full, and again they all replied “yes”. Seeing a theme building, the class started to get suspicious. The professor again pulled something out of his supply closet, this time it was a jar of sand. He poured it into the glass jar and once again asked his class if the jar was full and again they ominously replied “yes”. The professor then shut the jar and explained to the class:

“You see, the jar represents life. The golf balls represent the big things in your life: your friends, your family, the things your life would still be full with if you didn’t have anything else to turn to.” He continued.

“The pebbles represent the things in life you need, like your car, your job, and the other things in life you could live without. The sand represents all of the little things in life that we really don’t need but have anyway.” A student then raised her hand and asked:

“Do the two cups of coffee on your desk mean anything special?”

“Oh, I almost forgot!” He replied enthusiastically.

He opened the jar again and poured in both cups of coffee thus filling in any air in the jar.

“The two cups of coffee mean that no matter how full your life gets, there is always time for a couple friends to sit and talk over a cup of coffee.”

I need book ideas!!!

I decided I'm going to try and publish a book. so far my central theme is the little things in life we do that make our day to day lives extraordinary. So far i have some photos I took when I went to the coast and some hiking shots, but i need some more ideas.

Asia and the Mediterranean have clashed...

I was feeling especially creative in the culinary department today. and the outcome is restaurant worthy. If you want the recipe let me know. ;)

now what?

I decided i'm going to put that swirly piece in the middle of some stained glass, what should i put in the rest of the swirls. the square in the middle resembles the drawing.

biggest burger ever. period.

I've been so busy with work and school I haven't gone out with any of my friends in a while, and what a better place than nosworthys?

I've been working on it so long I don't know what to do with it.

I started this in May during the downtime between finals and have been dabbling with it since, now I have no idea what to do with it. encase it in some stained glass maybe?
