This Session turned out to be something. I was moved by the stories that were going on, the fears that others had shared. I had to share my own. Aside from the experiment, I needed to step out of the comfort zone and see what it was like. I was enlightened that I was able to share my story and have others listen. I was relieved.
To hear the other stories and become motivated by the serious conversations burned a sense of motivation inside. I felt like I can do a whole lot more with the ideas that churning in my head. I could pour out these ideas and they would make sense. I was moved.

Fearing the Experience
I felt that yesterday's sessions was something of a greater value that I had ever experience. Fear can be something rather a deep feeling to touch rather than to be scared about. Each moment when we encounter something that we don't understand or a situation that we would fail, we fear them. I have witness that there are some fears that I don't fear while there are others that I can sympathize for. The point is that we are not alone in our situations. We need to understand each other as a whole to face the greatest fear yet to come, our future.

FEAR
I will conduct an experiment involving the fear of sound. The subject of this experiment is to see the reaction of what the target group hears versus the authenticity of the sound.
I had made three trials within the experiment. The first trial required that the sound was not even scary at all, but a mixture of various sounds to become scary to see the participants reactions. They were so scared by it, however they were trying to picture the sound which was interesting.
Second trial was mixed sounds of authentic recordings of a supernatural setting along with a mixed audio sound that was not meant to be scary. The reactions seemed to be disturbed by the sound. The images in their mind began to solidify one distinct image by audio sound of a radio.
The Third trial was the most disturbing of them all. It was a live recording of a chilling sound that claims to be sounds of a ghost of some sort screaming inside a basement around 3:00am. They said that it was scary because of the sound of disturbance and screaming.
After the sound trial was done, I explained to them what each of the trails were and I got a better reaction from them to what the sounds were, they were more intrigued and interested rather than alarmed which I did not anticipate.
I anticipate some outcome of natural stimuli of placing a picture to the sound when not being able to see anything. I wanted to see what it was like to respond to the unknown when just hearing sound. Turns out you need picture: sight to amp up the fear.

RULES!!!!
What are rules really? We go through a ton of rules everyday without recognition. For example, we obey the traffic lights, stop signs, clocks, public foundations, and even people.
Why do we follow these rules, simple, to avoid accident. But amidst this idea of avoiding accident, it becomes a limiter to Creativity. When you think about it, think of the interesting products of today that was made by the most common of accidents, I can give some instances like the Potatoe Chip and the Slinky.
This doesn't necessarily mean break as many rules as you can to make Creativity. Learning is in fact an act of Creativity, the more we learn about cause and effect, the better we become creative. I digress.
But when it comes to the awesome ideas of bad-ass people like Batman and Joker you got think how much they get away with. Batman has only one and Joker has none, and you can see how brilliant of a story they make. However put them into the real rule, they may not fly as easy, (Thats why KickAss is a great reference tool, BTW)
Now, done ranting, I think the five rules I would despise is in existence is as follows:
(1) TIME: Time as in counting Day, Night, Hour, Minute, and Second, because it's a waste. You are lost by the potential of yourself devoting to purpose. Constraint of reaching goals at a cetain time strain may cause health damage, pychotic breakdowns, and even death.
(2) AGE: Everything has an expiration date. I for one do not want one. So in our Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Lord Voldemort, Drama, Benjamin-Button tales, we don't want to die. But we need to follow the conservation of energy policy that eventually we will be a pile of dust.
(3) NONBELIEVERS: Everyone should have an open-mind. If not, then they are complete airheads, and should be burnt.
(4) UNEQUAL RIGHTS: Everyone must be equal. If you aren't for it, then don't judge it, non-believer
(5) Gravity: I always want to fly
Now the rules that we need to have just in case
(1) No Stalkers: In the newest cell-phone, wrist-watch, and even mini-electronics has a built in GPS tracker. Now they are even allowing your friends to track you down in the loo because they just can fricken' trust you. I want to ban all of that.
Nuff said.
(2)Equal Rights just cause
(3)Live life to the fullest and Don't fool yourself, be who you want to be
(4)We need to have the retirement age be 35
(5)A Device that prevents Nick Nolte from Driving (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOl9b80CR-E)

Magic Egg for Breakfast
When I wake up in the morning, most of the time, I don't eat breakfast. However, one day there was an exception. I went downstairs to the refrigerator and got out bacon and eggs. I took out the egg and kept one for myself. This one egg was special to me.
I knew the contents of this special egg. Inside this breakable shell, there is the egg white, the yolk, and of course various thin membranes. I decided to empty the egg but retain the shell. I simply grabbed a butter knife, hit the outside shell, gently, and made a small opening for the contents to ooze out unto the frying pan.
Once an empty shell, I took the egg shell to the sink to wash out it's entirety inside and out. I then set it to dry as I ate morning breakfast. Later once the egg was dry, I took it to my room and began filling it confetti paper. The process was tedious. Eventually I made a masterpiece.
I set the egg away for now to eventually be used as a prop for my next magic show. You must be asking, what's the trick, well if you are the brilliant spectator, what would you do with an egg filled with confetti paper.
