I decided to publish my writings on the blog too... this way, people can comment

Selfishness, for as long as generations of people can remember, has been remembered as something that each one of us possess, but rejected by society as a thing of negative attributes. I sincerely reject that idea, for that I think that every decision we make is based on how happy it would make us.

All of our decisions are based on what we think will make us happy (under the assumption that you wish to live a happy life, which will be most of us). There are, of course, many things that determine how happy a decision will make us, and the decisions are not made on how good the outcome is, but rather the particular individual’s ability to foresee the results of the decision.

Some decisions are easy, for example, a rich couple is handing out free money, no catch, no records. You would, obviously, take the money, for that the money can buy you things that will give you happiness. Unfortunately, not that many things I life are that obvious. For example, if the couple mentioned above was giving $5, while they need a record of your phone number and social insurance number. Well, then you have a problem. Would you take it or not? Real life is often more complicated than that, and more likely that not, you would have more than a positive and a negative option; you could, in the above example, give them fake numbers. There are many factors contributing to your decisions, all of which are based on happiness.

Most people think that when you think about your own happiness, you completely forget the benefit of others. That is not entirely true. Humans begin to become attached to things the moment they are born. When people begin to become attached to things, we also consider the benefits of the people/group they become attached with. The more you become attached to somebody/some group, the more you consider their happiness. Of course, the opposite may happen; if you hate somebody, you consider you may damage them, for that their pain causes you happiness (or not, depends on you conscience).

Most decisions have consequences; this is the main factor in making decisions. I cannot think of even one decision in which there are no possible consequences. There seems to be two factors of consequences which affect your decision: the probability of consequences, and its severity. Different people take probability differently. If I was offered 1 million dollars, with a 1% chance of death, I would not take it. Some other person comes, and he/she will accept it happily. The severity is an equally important factor. About 70% of the world’s murder goes unsolved, but the punishment for murder is so sever that it stops people from doing it.

The other factor that concerns your decision is something that humans made in case consequences fail to halt decisions that are damaging to other people. The amount of conscience differs from person to person, and your conscience also differs depending on your sense of right and wrong. One person might think doing something is right, and the other person thinks that it is not. The general amount of conscience is normally changed as a whole, while conscience on a specific matter differs when you opinion of the matter changes.

The decision itself if made by weighing all three together on your own little scale in your mind: happiness, consequences, and conscience. If happiness outweighs the others, the decision is positive, otherwise, it’s negative. If you decide on an alternative, you weigh the alternative on the same scale and look at the results again.

That’s how the human brain makes decisions, which concludes the fact that we are completely selfish because all decisions are made judging form how happy the decision will make us.

Feeling: Horrible, tired, and sick... but also hopeful
Trying to: Play Winter Wonderland on guitar

Yay! Friday’s the last day of school for the year 2006!!! I can finally get lots of sleep and play all day, and get to be Most Active since I get so much free time!!!

Any of you know how to sing “Winter Wonderland”? There a part I don’t get, and it goes like this:
F# B F#
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown
A D A
He'll say "Are you married ?", We'll say "No man,
A7 E A
But you can do the job when you're in town."

Please state in the “comment box” for tips on singing/playing that part.

Wahhh... I flunked my first ever Math test (not as in like that was my first math test, but as in that it was the first math test that I flunked) 63%!!!!! I didn’t get to even finish the test!!! If it wasn’t for the fact that I’m in Math 11 (I’m in grade 9), my parents will kill me!

This Weblog entry is here to introduce you to a wonderful online game named Kingdom of Loathing.
The game is an MMORPG consisting of over 1 x 10⁶ players. The game consists of hand-drawn images and many witty comments and contains vast references to other MMORPGs, Pop Cultures... and many other areas of entertainment.
The game is turn-based, as you are given a certain amount of turns, called adventures, each day. The "days" start at approximately 10:30pm EST, called rollover. You may eat and drink to increase the turns, but only to a certain extent.
Like many MMORPG, the objective of the game is different for each player, there are trophy collectors, ascenders, hardcore ascenders, chatters, meat (yes, a rather odd currency, but it makes more sense than monsters drop meat rather than coins or bills) makers...
You may find out more about this hilarious game at www.thekolwiki.net .
Here's a automated system for you to play KoL with, it wil do things for you automatically (amoral, but useful)
KoL Mafia
Unfortunately, I have dropped out of the game due to lack of computer time, noob123, however, has not, so you may go to his clan of NuTang and join!!! (BTW, noo123 is also is username on KoL, and he is not to be trusted with your password, as I have found out the hard way)

This joke contains sexual material, viewer's discretion is advised.
Of course, I meant well

A city cop was on his horse waiting to cross the street when a little girl stopped beside him on her shiny new bike.
Nice bike," the cop said, "Did Santa bring it to you?" "Yep," the little girl said, "He sure did!"
The cop looked the bike over and handed the girl a $20 ticket for a safety violation, saying, "Next year tell Santa to put a reflector light on the back of it."
The young girl looked up at the cop and said, "Nice horse you got there sir, did Santa bring it to you?" "Yes, he sure did," chuckled the cop.
The little girl looked up at the cop and said, "Next year tell Santa the dick goes underneath the horse, not on top.
