Lesson Number ONE

 So recently I have noticed a lot of my friends have been keeping very interesting blogs. My friends' blogs are about everything under the sun from cooking to natural parenting. I have been inspired to start my own, so here it goes.....

 I decided to base my blog on the old saying, "You learn something new everyday." I have recently noticed myself saying this a lot and decided I wanted to keep track of all the useless things life teaches me. Sometimes they will be true life lessons that will change my life, or sometimes they will be completely useless facts that I would be just as well off not knowing.

 This is mainly for my entertainment, but maybe someone else can learn some useless knowledge with me. This may also end up showing people that I missed out on a lot in school while I was sleeping heh.


Lesson Number ONE:

  So while reading an article in the local paper, I came across some drug names I had never heard of before. I quickly went to Google to figure out what they were. I then found out that alprazolam is Xanax, clonazepam is Klonopin, and methylenedioxymethamphetamine is ecstasy. I also then proceeded to read about each drug. I learned that according to Wiki, "small doses of MDMA is used as an entheogen to enhance meditation by some Buddhist Monks". This all gave me the conclusion that there are too many people getting arrested for drugs they really don't know the side effects of.

Speaking of local news paper articles, when looking though local news online, I came across this title and had to take a second look. Zombies in PTC reminds me of every day of my childhood hehe!

This is the first example of useless knowledge that I would be fine never knowing. I'm hoping my lesson for tomorrow is a little more interesting and can have some value. I'm not getting my hopes up though.
