Growing Up Is Hard To Do


Today, my last official class in UP ended. I am now simply a few final exams and revisions away from graduation. My time in UP has seemingly ended with a whimper rather than a bang, but nonetheless, it has been an amazing 5 years.

I think that i've achieved a good amount of things that most any college kid should have done in their college lifetimes. I've met good people, bad people, smart people, and dumb people. I've failed a subject twice (well technically, just didn't pass the 2nd time) and I've been a university scholar for a semester. I've gone to a couple of parties and i've stayed for hours on end in the Coffeebean studying.

I've learned a lot of things in the last 5 years. But what I know, now better than ever, is that when you look back at what you accomplished in college, it won't be the medals or the certificates that you'll remember. It's the things that seem the most meaningless that matter the most. So what was awesome in my college life?

The Idiot's Guide to Contraceptives and Abortifacients


A lot of confusion about the entire RH Bill debate seems to come from a poor understanding of the terms involved. So let's try to explain this as easily as possible.

Here is how the pregnancy happens: Guy+girl+sex = orgasm. Guy's sperm travels to girl's egg. Sperm+egg = conception. Conception = life.

I hope that was clear enough for you. Surely any idiot on Earth could understand that.

Now, on the the next concept. It is impossible to abort or kill something that does not exist. That would be like me trying to kill my son. I cannot do it, simply because of the fact that he currently does not exist.

 If a girl does not get pregnant, there is nothing to kill. Girls become pregnant because? Yes, because conception happens. How does conception happen again? Sperm+egg. Sperm is not life, an egg is not life. A sperm cell and an egg cell together is life.

So, what have we learned so far? The only way to abort or kill something, is for there to be something to kill or abort in the first place, yes? You cannot kill empty space. How is does life happen? Sperm meeting egg. This is a very crucial concept you must remember. You can only kill things that exist. New things exist when sperm meets egg.
