LAST CERN TOUR

Today my family and Oren and a bunch of other physicists went on the last CERN tour of ATLAS, the experiment that is the whole reason we are here. It was cool. I took tons of pictures, which I'll add later. The guide was Steve Goldfarb, this cool guy who sings in a blues/r&b band that is pretty famous in the CERN world. So we went underground to see these massive "Big Wheels" and stuff. We had to wear construction hats. It smelled somewhat like pound cake and metal down there. We got to see the control room, which was a bunch of laptops and people staring at screens. Yeah. I'll add the pictures later. It was cool. After today, everything will be closed now and they'll be ready to really turn it on.

Have you ever wondered what it'd be like to live in France for a year? Yeah me neither. But I write; it's just what I do. This blog (though some consider it to be a book...) isn't just about France though and all my ranting; it's pretty much my journal. My life. On the Internet. For all youse people to read. Indeed I am not a professional writer, but I never made you read it. Thanks for checking it out though, and I hope you like it. There's a poll once in a while, some pictures, writing stuff, and some other cool blogs you can check out.

So here it all is, me being inspired, me hating life, me loving life and just... writing. Telling you guys. Or maybe just myself.

NOTE: Most, if not all, of the pictures I put on here are taken by me, but if not I'll probably mention where I got them. Please don't take any of them without asking me, as well as the writing itself. 'Cause stealing isn't cool. ...thanks.

Ditto. Thanks for reading my blog. I encourage comments and smiles. Remember, you've got one life to live, so don't live it like everyone else unless you want. Don't go with the flow and do what it takes to be happy. Because you know what? Sometimes you just have to say "screw society" and lay down in the grass for awhile. No one can control you- you're responsible for your own life. Let inspiration make you, music take you and bare feet move you. You're you and just be you because that's the only place you can go to where being you isn't graded or observed; it's just you. As the Russian scientist stated, "Do not be a mere recorder or facts; try to penetrate the mystery of the origin."

Think outside it all.
