Thursday Thirteen

4 May 2006 by kristarella

Thirteen random questions

1. Why when you are at the end of a congo line and the first person is walking, do you have to run to keep up, but when you are in traffic and the first person is moving, you are not?

2. Why is glass actually a really viscous liquid? Why not just say it’s a soft solid?

3. If glass is a liquid, does that make Gak or Playdoe a liquid?

4. Why do we need so much sleep? Why can’t we just eat more to get more energy?

5. Why do I love rock music so much?

6. Why do different kinds of music affect everyone differently?

7. Do we all see things things the same way? If I stepped into someone elses body would colours etc all look the same?

8. Are things getting worse, is the crime rate actually increasing, or is it just that we are better at detecting and reporting crime?

9. Do people still get possessed by demons or evil spirits?

10. Where the heck does fungus come from? The window in my kitchen is closed, that container of meat is also closed but still mould grows.

11. What is it that makes one person more intelligent, better able to retain and understand things, than the next?

12. Why is it so difficult to fit in all the things you need and want to do?

13. Who decides what’s cool, what’s hot, what’s sexy and what’s cute?

    Wow, some really great questions.
    On #9 – yes, I believe people do.
    On #11 – I have no idea.
    On #13 – People who have money and influence, it still doesn’t make it right.

    I ponder 6 and 12! I don’t care about 13 – others opinions, that is – so I decided for myself if it’s cute, sexy and hot! LOL

    Thanks for the visit to my T13!

    “Who decides what’s cool, what’s hot, what’s sexy and what’s cute?” Well, I DO! 😉
    “5. Why do I love rock music so much?

    “5. Why do I love rock music so much?” – Because it’s COOL. See, I said it was cool, so it is and that’s why you love it!

    (just kiddin’ around. I don’t REALLY think I’m all that!)

Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Title Had a great Saturday at the GKR Karate State Titles! I was a sub for @jamesxuereb.me in the Blue Flame Dragons thanks to his sprained ankle; we won first round and came fourth overall!
I did a bunch of judging and officiating, which was really good.
I didn’t place in my individual events, but had a very fun final round of kumite (sparring).
