The best thing I ever saw!

These will change your life forever. They certainly changed mine...

Rhythm is a Dancer

Rhythm of the Night


REPRESENT!

Monday 27 October 2008

I inhabit a world that I dont understand, and care increasingly less for.

So I've been at my job for a month now, and i can firmly say that regardless of whether i enjoy teaching or not, I'm not cut out to be an office Capitalist.

For a start, i just don't have the same mentality as some of these people. For example the biggest Property Agency in the business are potentially going to go bust in the new year, because despite making over £800m in profits, they have taken out over £1.5bn in loans! And this is a company that doesn't even buy its own property, it just facilitates the process for others. wtf do they need £1.5bn for?!

I'm also, i think, too easily satisfied. When i hear that a building used to be worth £600m but is now ONLY worth £400m, my first thought is "well what could i have done with the extra £200m anyway? I've still got enough cash for a money swimming pool."

It's also really easy to feel the creative part of your mind slipping away here. Don't get me wrong, its not a bad job, the works relatively easy, and everyone is nice. But the work is pretty uninspiring. But they all really enjoy it, and seem to think that if i get involved enough, I'll enjoy it too. but so far i don't think thats the case.

I have therefore resorted to creating post-it cartoons. In an effort to get my creative juices flowing a little, combined with my bubbling dissatisfaction with office life, I have started drawing small scenes which pastiche/poke fun at the world of the Office. I'll try get get them uploaded soon.

The end result of this post is; Do something with your life that makes a difference! Society only works because we work together - if your doing a job that makes you a bit richer and one other person a bit richer, your not really doing much with yourself, in the long run.

WIN!

You might have heard about the new Large Hadron Collider at CERN (a science facility bordering Switzerland and France). If you don't know what it is, don't worry because here is a video explaining all. If you're wondering whether or not this is the best thing you have ever seen... Yes. The answer is yes. It is.
