Supermassive Black Hole

YO! So I was listening to some Muse (Cause they're awesome!) and in one song, the term supermassive black hole came about. I had absolutely no idea what that meant thus I performed a thorough research - and what I found is truly mind boggling. ------
A supermassive black hole is a black hole with a mass of an order of magnitude between 105 and 1.8x 1010 solar masses. Most, if not all galaxies, including the Milky Way, are believed to contain supermassive black holes at their centers. The average density of a supermassive black hole (measured as the mass of the black hole divided by its Schwarzschild volume) can be very low, and may actually be lower than the density of air. Although it isn’t as dense as a regular black hole, it can still have enough powerful gravitational field to pull ANYTHING into its mist. Awesome isn't it?! Astronomers have discovered several dozen likely "supermassive" black holes in the cores of fairly nearby galaxies – some of which are found in the Milky Way Galaxy called stellar-mass black holes (Low mass). There are various theologies about black-holes leading to another universe or its appending doom to our universe, but nonetheless, it just blows my mind. As I continue my study of black-holes, I begin to wonder; just what did God had in mind when He created them. Was there a purpose for them? What are they really? THIS IS JUST SO FASCINATING!!

Ostrich

So we were playing Cranium the other day and one of the cards told me to act like an ostrich. Apparently, people don’t know that ostriches stick their heads in sand when frightened, so I was being a good idiot for 5 minutes. Groovy ....

Psalm 32:5

Why is it that whenever sin occurs people run away. I think it’s because we're so full of shame and guilt that we just completely avoid it. It’s a terrible habit - because God loves us no matter what right? But that’s easier said than done. I personally find it very hard to believe that God would love and forgive our sins so easily. I mean, why would He even have a speck of love for sinners like us. We have done so much wrong and hurt Him deeply numerous times, and yet He's still here; even as we profess our sins to him - even as we read his words of devotion to us. I don't know why it’s so hard for me to understand that (I’m such a loser). Everytime I commit any form of sin, big or small, I feel completely and utterly ashamed of myself and end up running away from him. I think that's one of the many reasons why my walk with God has been so slow and delayed. I know that all would be right again if I just ask for forgiveness but it still leaves that feeling of remorse. I guess I should be grateful afterall that I have gone through and He's still eternally faithful. I'm completely thankful and blessed; it’s just so hard for me understand why God shows so much mercy on us. I guess I'm at fault as well. My walk with God hasn't been one of the best; it’s rather slow and still at its noob stage. If I have had better commitment and patience, I would have been able to answer my own question.

Finally, I confessed all my sins to you and stopped trying to hide my guilt. I said to myself, “I will confess my rebellion to the Lord.” And you forgave me! All my guilt is gone. Psalm 32:5

Wonders

Don't you sometimes just look out the window (whether it be on a bus or train, a car, or even your very own bedroom window) and take in your surroundings. Whenever I do find the time to just absorb the wonders of the world, it puts me in awe. It takes you to a completely different perspective with the world you live in. Little unnoticeable everyday things come to life and hits you square in the face like a wrecking ball. Simple objects such as stoplights for example; how on earth do people control them or how complicated it must be to wire every single stoplight across the city or even the state. Other things that come to my mind are clouds; haven't you ever wondered how clouds would feel like at your fingertips. Or what about the million various colors around us; who came up with all the color names? Why are there so many? Or are there more colors out there that have yet to be discovered? I don't know about you, but I feel very small when compared to the world. It makes you feel like there are still millions of untold questions out there. I guess I should start writing all my questions down for God to answer when I reach heaven (Its going to be a very long list…)

Avatar: The Last Airbender

Dude!! After four(ish) years, its finally over. Its hard to believe that back in 2005 I would wake up in the morning just to watch the Avatar episodes. Its been such a long journey - and quite frankly, I blame Nickelodeon for lagging along the series. Nonetheless, the ending was quite predictable but I still enjoyed it. FTW!

My Favorite Adventures

One of these days, I'm going to post timely with the date. -----
It was a dark and cloudy (actually, it was pretty sunny) Wednesday when two innocent victims trekked their way into the Glen Canyon Park of San Francisco. It was all fun and play for their first hour -little did they know that something monstrous lurks within the deep canopy of the quiet evergreens. The monster lured the innocent ones by tempting them with long stringy ropes hung at the very tops of the trees. All was well as they toyed with the death trap - swinging back and forth carelessly as they laughed and giggled through the day. It should have been a grim sign when one of them fell flat on its butt or when one was bleeding life through its fingernails, but they were foolish. Instead, they ignored all the tall tell signs of evil and blindly set their way to the point of no return. Once they entered, swarms of evil in different shapes and forms attacked the innocent ones. Evil disguised themselves as tree branches that stood as obstacles or various creepy crawlers that seeped their way onto the victim's flesh and clothing. For hours the two wandered. For hours the two crawled, climbed and sweat. They had almost given up all hope when the tall one had enough - with the face of courage, she led on. How brave was she as she even went back to save a fellow victim. The two continued onward to the glowing light at the end of this nightmare. Beatened, they stumbled out of the darkness and ran towards light with open arms and wide eyed grins. From that day on, they two learned a valuable lesson and vowed to never take that detour again. However, as the girls are blessed to be alive - the monster within roars with anger as he waits for his next victims.

Man, social life can be exhausting. It all started with the softball game the team had that afternoon. I sat with Steph and we had an interesting rating conversation. Haha. Went home afterwards to get ready for Karen's Birthday Dinner at Chevys. A good number of thirteen people showed up - but even then, I don’t think we all could have finished the meal Neilson and I ordered. It was HUGE! I felt so stuffed afterwards - and there was cake! Ugghh. It was well worth it though; eighteen dollars for the 'mix grill' - I really enjoyed the tortillas. I think next time, Ill just get an appetizer or salad. And next time, I shouldn’t sit with Neilson. We're two very boring people with nothing interesting to discuss; well maybe just me. I need to sit next to someone more talkative. Afterwards, we went to a karaoke bar at Japan-town. And Nicole totally farted in the car on our way there. Gag* The 'Do-Re-Mi' bar was full so we wandered around till we found another CHEAPER one. It's so fun to watch people get in touch with their wild side. We sang and danced to some rocker, some oldies pop, some modern ones; we even opened with a Soulja Boy rap. Good times. And all for $50 - well 60 because we went ten minutes over our hour, but they were nice enough to charge us for just the extra ten. I didn’t get home till like 12:30. I'm very tired right now. Pictures soon!

Edit: And lets not forget the Fourth-of-July-BBQ the day before. There was great tasty food and quality fellowship time. I bought a bunch of sweet potato but no one ate any - so please come over and eat them with me. Hahah.
