Market Supply and Market Demand
Market Equilibrium: The point at which Market Supply is equal to Market demand.
that simple concept determines the supply is willing to ensure at a price that is optimal to them.
I buy cans of pop on the regular here on campus because I'm an addict. I usually buy from this little viet place on campus and it's so funny how often they change their price on me.
I've gone 3 times and so far I've paid three different price:
1.50
1.10
1.25
I just think it's funny this lack of consistency.

Barney New York x Alife
I would admit to being a fan of the Everybody Highs. As well as to Barney's New York. My tastes very and are often found on opposite ends of the spectrum.
So to Hear about this Orange pack coming from Alife and Barney's was quite the shocker. And these shoes are quite appealing.
I could describe it in one word and that word would be creamy. The off white is a nice elegant touch to compliment a soft but vibrant orange.
Available now at Barney's locations and on their online store

The Microwave
You know what I hate?
I HATE MICROWAVES! Sure they're handy and convenient but they're so damn inefficient.
The Microwave was the Devils gift to man. One hot day in hell Satan got bored and decided that he was he was going to give a us a present. The gift of reheating food, using radiation. I mean that in itself should have deterred humanity. But I digress.
The Microwave sucks because it doesn't ever work properly! How many times have you put food in the microwave and it comes out STILL cold. Or worse yet, you'll put it in and it comes out nice and hot, or so it seems; Parts are deadly hot and other parts are frighteningly cold. There is no consistency, and let's not even get started about what happens to the inside of the food. The outside get's deliciously hot and then the inside is disappointingly cold. Microwaves are stupid and I can only wish we had a more efficient way of warming up food.

Make Use of Your Appendix
For some reason right now I find myself in love with eating meat. Well I've always loved a good steak but I find now that I'm eating my steaks and cuts of beef more and more rare. I'm actually thinking of getting one cooked blue rare the next time I go grab a steak. I just love tender juicy bloody meat. Like our caveman ancestors ate it back before fire.
I'm putting my appendix back into fold of things. What's the point of having the organ that doesn't do anything? sure we don't know what it was meant to do but it is assumed that it was for consumption of raw meat, but since we cook our food now we've evolved to no longer need it. Kind of like our littlest toe....unless you eat with your feet.

Off My Game
I come to school expecting to get some work done in the realm of Economics 301. Advanced Microeconomics. But as soon as I get in and log into my online assignment I realized that there was no assignment due today. It's for next saturday the 18th. Hey I can't complain about that.
It just means now I have to get cracking on my Advanced MACROeconomics assignment and my Urban Studies mid term, both for Tuesday.
Yet with all this extra time I know find myself online blogging haha. Geez!

How To Feel Like A Girl
The Safety Net
Sometimes you just jump.
Hope the landing is soft, or something breaks your fall.
You put yourself out there and take the risks you normally wouldn't take. Say things you wouldn't normally say; do things you normally wouldn't do.
Sometimes you jump.
Because you want to know. You might as well. You have nothing to lose.
Sometimes you jump.
And you realize you shouldn't have. The landing crushes you.
Maybe you shouldn't have jumped after all.

And you realize you shouldn't have. The landing crushes you.
Maybe you shouldn't have jumped after all.
At least I know when I jump. I got a safety net to catch me this time around. The risks are still there, but at least this time around I got a net to catch me in case I fall.

Beware of Forever
E-V-E-R
That's a statement in itself. Ever, it was the best movie EVER! Meaning there was none better, it's top tier, cream of the crop. It may seem harmless on the surface but with the word ever comes an underlying sense of eternity. Now if we add an N we get never. Which is just another way of saying eternity. I'll NEVER talk to you again! I'll NEVER eat chocolate again! I'll NEVER do this/that! You get the point. Ever is pretty powerful in itself, and Never is right up there. But if you add an F and an O and an R. You get one of the most quizzical words in the English dictionary, FOREVER!
Now I know what your thinking what is so bewildering about the word forever? Well for starters what can really last forever? What really does endure all of time. I heard that on a long enough time line the survival for everything drops down to zero. Which is a conundrum within itself because this time line has to go one forever. People don't live forever, it was God's intention for eternal life but Eve fucked it up for the rest of us. Which just goes to show the weakness' we all have. Women may be easily convinced but men are unknowingly easily tempted. I know I'm a sucker for a pretty girl with an apple, especially if she's naked!
I to an extent can be quite hesitant to think about forever. Because forever is trilly and truly quite the conundrum. You can't possibly find out if something lasts forever becuase forever never comes. Forever NEVER EVER comes. Maybe the beauty in forever is that it is fleeting. Why look forward to something that never comes?
I would never say forever, because I just didn't believe there was anything everlasting. Nothing could possibly beat time; nothing could be that strong. I didn't like to think of forever because once you get caught up in it you get distracted. Forever detracts from the now. You think about the future long enough you forget to appreciate what you have in the present. If you live in the future you don't appreciate the gift of the present. About a week ago I would have told you that forever doesn't exist, but maybe I'm wrong. Maybe something is out there that could prove me wrong, I'm not entirely convinced, but I'm more open to it, and hoping to have been wrong about it.
Just remember.
Today, is the Tomorrow you worried about Yesterday.

Hot Pants - The Ressurection
Make fun all you want but the skinny jean is back for guys! Hot Pants or not this just proves that this FPOE was just ahead of his time. Call em nut huggers if you jealous misers want. But they're not seen on the likes of Weezy, Skateboard P and Mikey Rocks. So It's time to dust mine off and wear em again.
The Skinny jean is back.....I was just ahead of my time!
