                                                             The End of the World

If the world was ending and i only have 24 hours to choose which THREE items I can take with me as I leave the Earth. Now this is very hard to choose, i'm guessing that i'll be leaving on a rocket ship or space ship whatever. So it limits what i can really bring and what will be beneficial to me and my survival. So if i am leaving on a space ship i'm guessing there shall be people also leaving on this ship so its really limiting what i really really need. But I feel these are the right choices at least for my sanity.
1.Food- Very important for everyone and is ranked number 1 for me. Now i can really limit what i eat per day. If we were in space for a very long time I can go without eating for three days. I can eat small so if i bring a lot of food I think I can keep all food for a good 2 years. But i'm not counting in the fact of expiration dates, its just hypothetical.
2.Clothing- Now this is a given but i'm still going to put it on the list. Did i take this opportunity to put my idle Mr. Donald Glover, Childish Gambino, yes. But i dont wanna be in the same clothes in space for a long time, thats just disgusting. But still even if im in space im gonna want to mess around with my fashion but still clothing is important to me.
3.Water- Last but not least water or just any refreshment. Now it should probably be number 2 or even number 1 but this is my ranking so yeah. Now like food i can survive without water for 3 or even longer i think i went a week without water which will never do again. But if i can do that i can keep a good supply of water or refreshments for so long.

                                                            What Is A Parody?


A parody which is also called a spoof (never heard it be called that in my entire life or any of the next words that are coming up besides 2 of them), a send-up, a take-off, a lampoon, a play on, a caricature or a joke, is a work which is created to imitate make fun of or comment on an original work. Its subject, author, style, or some other target- by means of satiric or ironic imitation.
This is an example of a parody, it makes fun of the fact that people dont really like Diet Coke and people believe it is useless, so its Diet Joke.
Now if you know who this is then you know what parody is. This is Weird Al Yankovic makes parody music videos of very famous songs, some of his best work is "Fat" parody of Michael Jackson's "Bad", "Preform This Way" parody of Lady GaGa's "Born This Way" and my personal favorite "Party In The CIA" parody of Miley Cyrus's "Party In The USA". He's basically the king of parody.

“The first key to wisdom is constant questioning…by doubting we are led to inquiry, and by inquiry we discern the truth.” -Peter Abeland (1079-1142)

“It is better to know some of the questions than all of the answers.” -James Thurber (1894-1961)

What do these quotes mean?

To me the first quote means to constantly question and never doubt what you think is the answer or the truth. The second one, i mean to me it seems straight forward but you know i could be wrong. But my interpretation is its better to not know everything then to know everything. Better to learn than to not learning i guess, life wouldnt be fun.

"La primera clave para la sabiduria es el cuestionamiento constante... al dudar de que somos conducidos a la indagacion, y al indagar discernimos la verdad".

"es mejor saber algunas de las preguntas que todas las respuestas.

Do these quotes apply to connect with me??? Honestly i dont know but they do apply to society by how we innovate or create things and how we are always questioning everything. Because we dont have all the answers for life. we always question where do we go when we die or is there a god and we dont have the answers for those type of questions. Even questions like on our own planet we dont know everything. To me thats what makes life fun: not knowing everything and always questioning.

Blog Post #8

       One thing i was trying to accomplish this year was to workout and lose weight. I'm no big but it would be nice to lose some weight and maintain that. Right now im at 175lb and i was trying to at least lose 20 pounds. During the summer last year I was trying to workout but I would barely go to the gym and i kinda got really busy with work. So i stopped trying at that time.

        During the school year, mainly our first semester, i did start a workout routine and have a sleep schedule, i would wake up at 4am and run a 5 mile run, seems like a lot but it wasnt for me, i have great stamina for someone with asthma. Then when i got home i would workout for at least an hour and a half. I was seeing results that i was losing weight but as time went on i did start to lose inspiration to keep going. By December i wanna say 16th  i was almost all out of inspiration but then i got a new hope and kept going for at least another month. But as January 20th i got myself distracted and started going off my sleep schedule staying up really late or pulling an all nighter sometimes for no reason.

        But now i've started again because of quarantine secretly being a blessing to me giving me inspiration and to better myself because of many reasons. I've started the same routine that i had before and started to see results. I'm stronger than i was before without any distractions. During the past few months i was able to keep my weight at 163lbs. I did forget to say before i did lose 12lbs which was good for me but now since i started again, i was able to lose a litte more and now im at 157lbs. I gotta keep going not lose inspiration again, i gotta not get distracted by people and just keep grinding to reach my goal.
