Mr Buddha man is a cutie.

We have a man , he is a Buddhist , that has come to talk to us today. He is awfully sweet he makes these little jokes and moves around and tells us all bout Buddhism he is a little bit old and a little bit tiny. Its a little bit cute.
Buddha was born and HId away from all suffering and sadness because of a prophecy. When exposed to four things a monk a diseased person a funeral provession and an old man he goes back to the palace.
For 29 years he was surrounded by beauty .He knew not of these things. Upon his return to the palace he was once again surrounded. By beauty. He woke to a harem of women asleep and saw the transformation of the beautiful girls to ugly nakedness . Here he make the decision to retire from this world to find the answer to suffering. This is where the search begins. He give up his child and wife.
He goes out and starts lookin for the path to end suffering. He went and tried many extreme lengths until he finally finds the middle way. This is where he came to the resolution ( the rice and river) sits under the bodhi tree after consuming the rice and goes into deep meditation.
This is where he found enlightenment.

… Ellipsis (Taken with instagram)

no wonder people fail the HSC, when you get asked to answer a question and you have to go through the book three time as well as Google it and you still don’t have the answer. not only that but my parents constantly nag about me failing and not working enough but as soon as i sit down, prepared to work they come in and talk to me and then  kick me out of the room because i am in the way of them watching a movie that could be watched on any five of our computers or on the other huge-ass television in the  back room. not only this but i have spent seven hours of my day at school, five and a half hours of my day at work in my meaningless, dead end job (that my parents wont let me quit,or find another job)and three hours trying to find a place to study that is both quiet and roomy enough for all the shit i have to do.

24-15=9 that leaves nine hours of my day that have been sleep and travel to and from in a monotonous routine of the hsc student.

now back to my rant on the board of studies, they give us so much information that we have to learn and they attempt to blind sight us in the exam by asking questions that were designed to be poorly answered.this then leaves us with a barrel load of information that is rendered completely useless.

and then asking a question on only one aspect of it, truth.fact is if they taught us ONE small section it would be one hundred times more effective.
