*TOPIC TUESDAY*
THIS WEEK'S TOPIC: "SELF TREPANATION"
NEXT WEEK'S: "FOOD: THE IN'S AND OUT'S"
First off I want to mention that before last week I'd never even heard of self-trapanation. Now that I've read about it in a few articles, I'm totally grossed out by it. I hate anything that has to do with brain surgery, brains being exposed, brain soup.... So already I was creeped out by it. So I just want to make it clear that this was't my idea. I in no way encourage or even agree with self trapanation.
This is what I got from it: Selft-treapanation is like a do it yourself lobotomy. This "surgery" has been performed for thousands of years and the reason or beliefs varie from culture to culture. But the main reason or "belief" is that when we are born, we have a soft spot on on head (where the cranium bones meet, or almost meet) and becasue of that soft spot, you have greatter acess to your "third eye" and therefore can reach a higher state of being. But when we grow, the soft spot on our head fuses together and cuts off the "third eye". So now people around the world are drilling holes in their heads with electric drills so they can reach a higher state of conciousness through release of their "third eye". Yes it's true, these people truly believe that by drilling a hole in your head will free your "spirit". Most of them take hits of LSD or other drugs while doing the procedure to clam themselves...What the hell are they thinking? "Dude, let's take some lsd and drill holes in our heads....." I'm sorry but this entire concept goes far and beyond coo-coo. Not only do I not belive in God, but I believe even less in a "third eye". If your God wanted you to have a third eye he would have given you one you can see out of. I'm sure he's up there in heaven going: "What's the matter with all you wack-o's?". What 's even more unbeliveable is the fact that there hasn't ever been a death by self-trepanation yet! I was reading this one story about a man who was having trouble getting it right and he kept trying and trying and one day he got through the skull and pushed a little too hard and he passed out and woke up in the ER. The doctors were like "What's the matter with you? One more quarter of and inch and you would have drilled right into your brain and killed yourself". And then this guy goes home and tries it again! For his sake I hope he found spiritual enlightenment. This hole idea of drilling a hole in your head is just plain old nuts to me. The original function for this "operation" was to tidy up the cranium following head injury, e.g. a  battle-wound, cure for mental illness or enhancement of mental capacity by the priest caste or ruling caste. Like this was thousands of years ago when medical technology was at it's worst and people didn;t know any better. Now there are paople drilling holes in their heads without medical supervision or assistance..... I just don't get it. I know I'm being very negative but come on....I mean really, what kind nut job does this crap? You whave to be a little banana's to do this to yourself. If you want my opinion, it's a bunch of bullshit. Just reading about this junk made me nauseous. gag...gag...blah!

Enough about that. The day went by painfully slow. I was suposed to go to a show last night. My friends are in a banmd called One-976 and they really wantd me to go but I just didn't have to energy or $$ to go....next time.All I wanted to do was leave work. I soo didn't feel like being there, I was bored all day. Not that there was nothing to do, but I just didn't feel like doing it. The funniest part of the day wa when Anita and I were walking in the mall, minding our own buisness and this guy just says "LESS-BI-ANNS!". We just burst out laughing because who was this guy to assume that we are lesbians anyways? We weren't kissing or caressing eachother, we were just walking next to eachother as most people do. He was so quick to say it too... It was really funny. I'm soooo not motivated to go to work tomorrw, but then how will I buy fun thigs if I don't work right?
I'm going go-karting with me brother next week. I'm VERY excited. It's been a long time since we've gone. And a long as I'm not the worst one there, I'm happy. I'm usually the third or fouth to last, dependoing on who;s going. Chris always wins..except for that one time when this little german boy beat him.....wasn't a pretty sight to see Chris loose. I hope that german boy comes next week, I'm going to smash him up good!
I'm going into work for 07h00 tomorrow, which means getingup at 04h30 so I'd better get to bed or face a day of bordome AND tiredness.....
