When someone writes a research paper on some subject, it is more likely to get someone else  to read it, agree with it or even have the reader change his opinion is to use some experts’ opinions on the same subject in support to the writer’s. In this case, the writer gives himself a favor of experts “helping” him in constructing a persuasive paper. When I saw Honda commercial, I thought of how this commercial was anything else but the car commercial. Unlike any other car commercial this one had a higher quality in terms of presence of arts in it. It is impossible to underestimate arts, we respect it so much for its past and cherish it in present, and always give it a credit for whatever it will be in the future. In other words, arts are and always will be a lot more meaningful to the humanity than any “popular” arts like TV, Hip-Hop, or other modern day equivalent. Using arts in commercials, it is like having this special touch by the “expert” for which people will give credit for. Because of the new acquired high qualities of the arts in commercial, people would see a car advertisement in much more intriguing and responsive way. By using arts in Honda commercial, giant automobile company takes a credit for arts’ place in the word. I think it a quite clever way to distribute anything.

...

Today, on my way home, I allowed myself to get lost on campus. i just wanted to get lost, probably for the same reason why at times i leave my cell phone at home... to get away from people.
It's hard for me to get lost in the surroundings that I'm familiar with. I can easily find a direction that I have to get moving.  Well, having S<->N direction, I can always tell which way i have to go if I need to find my home or some other place i need to be.
I dont try to get lost often...only once or twice a year, and try to do it before the winter. Luckily for me, today all of the reasons led to my absence from a crowd.
I've never thought of what I'm looking for when "i'm gone". Probably I want to go to "no place" to look for something or nothing. Because of my morals, i dont drink or do drugs to get lost, but i need the same feeling. I need feeling of euphoria. It took me some time to finally understand why i do this...i need an "exhaust" for my negative energy.
So, today when I've tried to do the same routine...  I've failed!

Red Corner

Grey Corner

     I've been thinking about circulation of matter... I've been trying to think critically of How nature's manifestations like mountains and oceans are the end points in this circle of infinite motion of matter, and How the end points change their relation to one another in time. But with a certain respect to each other, mountains and oceans have never tried to undermine one's importance or destroy.
     Even though it seems that there is never ending conflict between them, these two large Earth's creations always have worked collaboratively to make sure to sustain life by supplying construction materials to all living beings.
Since my first lessons of natural Sciences, my teachers of geography, geology, biology, environmental science and other related studies of Earth have always taught me that lithosphere (mountain ranges, and land) and hydrosphere (oceans,seas, lakes, and rivers) are the most powerful forces on Earth and actually are destroying each other. Thinking there for a moment, I have come up with more questions that I can answer. But the question that matters the most to me and may lead  in the right way of thinking (so, i am going to elaborate on it) is "Why is it that in the most tense regions of their struggle there is so my life?". Is this life a by product of never ending conflict?  Well, that is a strange war, isn't it? The war where things can be brought to life and not to be destroyed is not in our traditional interpretation of war, right? The way I see it is since the begging of time two elements have a long term partnership that brought  life and more importantly managed not only to sustain life for millions of years, but to expand it in the farthest and deepest "corners" of the planet. There always has been an immeasurable exchange of matter.
     I am not sure if it is possible to imagine ideal relationship in anything that we know. Under certain conditions one of the sides will try to dominate the other.
