Range Rover Sport vs. Tank... What?

After seeing the Buggati video I came across Range Rover vs. Tank, which is equally as ridiculous as the ladder as the Range Rover attempts to out run a tank in a combat field. AS the Range Rover Sport impresses me, seeing a Tank maneuvering around as such, in this video is particularly interesting. The engineering and design for both these vehicles are tuned to meet adverse terrain one aesthetically pleasing, and a multi-use vehicle. The other a war hero incorporating strength, durability, and the ability to maneuver in combat.

The Worlds fastest car: Buggati Veyron

I came across this video the other day while researching for a project. The Buggati Veyron is the worlds fastest car. It is a pretty ridiculous car designed and engineered incredibly concisely. Here are some quick interesting facts about it:

- Just to rotate the tires it costs around $20,000

- 16 cylinder engine w/ 4 turbo charges producing 1,001 horsepower

- Has 10 radiators

- Has a special key you have to unlock it with to travel at top speeds

Why I'm obsessed with cooking.



For some reason, in the past year or two I have become obsessed with cooking and especially baking (when it comes to cookies). Baking is very sooting and relaxing for me I love to create something from many things, that being ingredients and food. There's something intriguing to me about they way you can manipulate flavors and use them over various food to create entirely different tasting things.

Men and wallets.



While having a conversation with one of my brother's today (who happens to be looking for a new wallet) he said this "wallets are to men like handbags are to a woman" (or even a wallet i would say). This piqued my interest and I found out that he has indeed been looking for a wallet the past 3 days, and seems to not be having much luck. So why is this? My brother seems to be indecisive about wallets, because it is something you don't purchase all time, and you carry with all the time and you and see it every day. Therefore, it is a purchase that must be strategically thought out and considered as they have a vast array of different wallets styles.

Unusual or not?


A random girl sitting in her car, door open at 2am, music playing writing in her journal. Probably semi-stupid as it is 2 in the morning, and who knows who could be walking the streets at that hour. Yep this was me...emotionally charged and writing like crazy in my journal. I think I always have far to many thoughts, and don't know which one to grab, or how to act on one because they're chaotically flying around.

Thanksgiving!


Yay for Thanksgiving! I decided I needed to brag a bit because I made the most amazing sweet potatoes I have ever tasted for Thanksgiving, from a recipe I just made up! I wouldn't be bragging if I didn't get any praise for my Sweet Potatoes, but indeed they were the hit of the meal!

Thoughts from my journal...



One thought, one action at a time I will move forward, against al odds, to be who I know I am, but who am I? I will not accept failure, I will learn from my mistakes, move forward with it. I will not give up. Why? Because of who I am, the mind that was bestowed on me. I will choose not to waste it. How does one changes the world? By taking action, leading by example. How? Because in showing them, they learn and those who learn will show others. And in showing others more will learn, and as more learn, people g=begin to be able to change things, and when people change, so then will the world begin too.
