Bio------finally updated this-----
If you don't know who I am, I pity you :)
j/k, I'm Sam, I graduated from CHS in Livonia, and I'm going to Stanford now. I'm a hopeless economic geek, and will occasionally drag up references to economics in conversations that will just make you look at me weird. I have a younger sister who is awesome and whom I should smuggle away to college with me because she doesn't belong in high school, and many awesome friends, almost all of whom are geeks.
"And in this place can you reassure me
With a touch, a smile, while the cradle's burning
All the while the world's turning to noise
The more that it's surrounding us, the more that it destroys
Turn up the signal
Wipe out the noise" - Peter Gabriel, "Signal to Noise"
Read Foucault's Pendulum if you want to knwo how true this is...
"Living on a lighted stage
Approaches the unreal
For those who think and feel
In touch with some reality
Beyond the gilded cage
Cast in this unlikely role
Ill-equipped to act
With insufficient tact
One must put up barriers
To keep oneself intact
Living in the limelight
The universal dream
For those who wish to seem
Those who wish to be
Must put aside the alienation
Get on with the fascination
The real relation
The underlying theme..." Rush, "Limelight"
"I'm not going to waste this time,
This light that burns will keep on fading.
I'm not getting up off of this ride,
I'm holding tight until I can feel alive.." - Mae, "Goodbye, Goodnight"
