I was sitting here, pondering so hard over what I should write my last two blogs posts about, not having a single clue, not wanting to write about how I felt about another poem or story. When suddenly, a fellow blogger posted a blog about Eleanor Rigby. As I sat here, eating my tofu chicken fettuccine alfredo, I pondered if I should also write a blog post about Eleanor Rigby, as it is a catchy song, and by the Beatles, who are amazing for hidden meanings in their songs, posters, and videos. Then I started to think about the conspiracy of the death of Paul McCartney. I had once done so much research on this learning about it and understanding it, when suddenly I realized that I can retain this useless information about a bunch of dead guys (mostly), and I can not remember anything from my biology course!
I had my mind blown to pieces. I remember all these little details such as a different colour in one of their posters symbolizing Paul's death, but I can not remember for the life of me the difference between Xylem and Phloem. No matter how truly interesting I am in learning biology (and believe me I am it is so interesting), I can not retain the information. Is it not expressed interestingly enough? Is there to much information for my brain to retain in such a short time? Who knows.
Anyway, it is simply flabbergasting how the human mind works, maybe I'll learn about that in biology some day though.
Biology is a definite pain in the a$$!
ReplyDeleteI like how you actually wrote about what pops in your head, whatever it is. I try to do that. Taking Miss' advice to not over think the posts I try to just sit and type. But being the organized person I am, I just can't be satisfied with random thoughts. It has to have a certain order and follow some type of pattern. That makes me take so much longer to write my posts -- I just can't not over think them! So kudos to you for having a open, free, non-conformed mind for this blog post. :)
