Black History Month

Ok so being that February is “Black History Month” I decided to write a blog about the true meaning of the history of being black. Black is the color of objects that do not emit or reflect light in any part of the visible spectrum; they absorb all such frequencies of light. In Physics, a black body is a perfect absorber of light, but, by a thermodinamic rule, it is also the best emitter. Thus, the best radiative cooling, out of sunlight, is by using black paint, though it is important that it be black (a nearly perfect absorber) in the infrared as well. Black is the lack of all colors in light, or an exhaustive combination of multiple colors of pigment. Black is worn by Hassidic Jews, some Muslim woman… but I can’t say all Muslim women, lawyers and judges and by gothic and punk kids. The Black sky refers to the appearance of space as one emerges from the Earth’s atmosphere. A black dwarf is the name of a star that has burnt out. If a person wears a black bandana, that means that one is into the sexual fetish of sadomasochism. The color black is a symbol of mourning in Western societies, especially at funerals and memorial services. In Greece and Italy, widows wear black for the rest of their lives. In terms of Money being “in the black” means to be out of debt which is considered to be “in the red.” Black magic is a destructive or evil form of magic. Black is often connected with death. Ok I’m getting tired of writing. This is my study of the history and meaning of being black

Counting Sheep

Okay so lately i've been having some trouble sleeping and a couple night ago decided I would try an old trick that has worked for people for many years. I thought I would start to count sheep. I have found out that it is way easier to count sheep jumping over a fence than to try to count sheep one by one in a herd . Sometimes sheep in a herd move around and I lose count or count the same sheep twice, I then get so frustrated with myself that I lost count and I have to start over, by doing so I keep myself awake even longer because I'm thinking about sheep at all hours of the night.

What are you looking at?

Sitting in the back row of class has it advantages. One of which is I can go on the internet and my professor wont notice as easily. Another reason why I like sitting in the back row is I can also see what other students are looking at. Facebook is the most common page that is up right now. Out of 10 laptops open that I can see half of them are on this social network page. One person is one youtube, and 3 are actually taking notes. I'm not sure why i'm writing about this, I guess I just wanted an excuse to look over people's shoulders to see what they're looking at.
