The Viking: Jarl Damian

If I had the choice to be either a Roman, Spartan, Knight, or Viking I would chose a Viking.  The reason for me choosing the viking is the vikings' culture is pretty interesting.  The vikings homeland is one of my favorite parts of the world.  Their homeland consists of Europe some parts of Russia, the North Atlantic Islands and as far as the northern-eastern coast of North America.  My life as a viking would be luxurious and magnificent.  Of course I would be born into a wealthy and important family, raised as royalty.  The vikings social structure has three social classes: Thralls being the lowest class consisting mostly of slaves, the Karls or everyday free men, and finally my class the Jarls who are the wealthy class.  The Jarls own massive estates with huge longhouses, horses and many thralls.  The thralls take care of all the petty daily chores that us Jarls can not be bothered with.  During the day Jarls participate in administration, politics, hunting and sports.  Some of the sports vikings engage in are swimming, mountain climbing and in the winter time skiing and ice skating are common.  The festivals that are thrown from time to time or on special occasions are fantastic gatherings.  Filled with music, storytelling, skaldic poetry and alcohol.  So my life as a Jarl in peaceful times is great, but in times of war it is also splendid.  Fighting for the pride and betterment of my country and people with a horde of the most brutal and fearless men is an honor.  I believe I would enjoy my life as a viking.    

Were he had disappeared.....

She was sure this was where he had disappeared, as it was the last place she saw him.  They had been playing tag in the foggy forest surrounding their house.  She searches the woods they were playing in.  However she finds no trace of her beloved brother.  She circles back to the opening where he had vanished.  When she returns she notices a manhole which previously was not there.  She investigates the opening.  When she looks into the manhole she sees a ladder, but nothing else and hears nothing.   She suspects that her brother is down there.  She climbs down the slightly slim-coated ladder into the dark, dank hole.  She carefully steps off the ladder into shallow cold water.  As her eyes adjust to the darkness she slowly senses her surroundings.  She can make out the shape of a grand tunnel extending in front of and behind the ladder.  After a moment, she walks away from the ladder further into the tunnel using the wall as a guide.  As she walks she hears a distant low whimpering, whether it was her brothers or not she did not know.                     

Gardening during Success Lab

During success lab Wednesday I helped out the LCCC Child Center by picking weeds in their gardens.  I had a lot of fun.  Being able to get out of success lab and go outside and enjoy the fresh air was nice.  It was nice being able to help out with the horrible load that is picking out weeds.  I know how tedious and how unpleasant it can be.  So helping and and making it easier and quicker was a great feeling.  Also being out there with my friends and talking and laughing made the work fun and seem much faster than it otherwise might of.  One downside was there was not enough gloves for everyone to have a pair, so I ended up using my hands.  Which was not enjoyable when I picked the prickly weeds out.  However all in all it was an enjoyable experience and I received extra credit which is always a plus.

What business would I start?

If I started my own business my business would be a record store.  The name of my record store would be Smell the Vinyl.  Big record stores are not as common as they used to be say in the 1970's and 1980's.  Me opening my record store would help make a difference in that sad statement.  Music is universal and is in everyone's life in some fashion.  People have so many different tastes in genres.  To accommodate that Smell the Vinyl would have a wide variety of genres.  This is a good representation of my musical taste.  I like a range of genres such as rock & roll, country, pop, hip-hop, rap, urban, rhythmic, blues, indie, EDM, alternative, and R&B.  My store would include all of those genres and more.  Smell the Vinyl would also include the different era's all the way from the 40's to the 2000's.  Opening a record store as my business would be amazing as I really enjoy listening, discovering, and jamming out to music.

What am I evangelical about?

I am evangelical about Fifth Harmony and sports.  Fifth Harmony is my favorite musical artist, and they are the nicest people I have ever met.  I've met them 4 times and each time I can tell you that I did not at all display equanimity.  They always try to promote positivity, and strong messages about the current issues in society.  I always promote them wherever I go.  For example when I stay at a hotel right before I check out I always leave a note saying something along these lines "Thank you for the room and also download Fifth Harmony's new single on iTunes you won't regret it.  Thanks again!"  I talk about them all the time as some of my friends may tell you.  I am also evangelical about sports.  I'm an avid sports fan of any sport, baseball, basketball, hockey, football, and soccer.  I just like to watch and learn more about sports.  The players, stats and more about the sport rules or history.  My favorite sports teams are the New Orleans Pelicans, Washington Wizards, Chicago Cubs, Cleveland Indians, Philadelphia Eagles, Cleveland Cavaliers, and the Cleveland Browns.

#1 Rule: DO NOT INVITE YOURSELF ALONG

One rule I think everyone should follow is do not invite yourself along.  Inviting yourself along is one of the most annoying things you could do in my opinion.  If I'm going somewhere and I didn't invite you that most likely means I didn't want you to come.  So don't ask if you can come because I will tell you a straight up no.  Someone who invite themselves get on my nerves really quickly.  I have a friend who invites himself along almost every time I go somewhere and I can't stand it.  So whenever someone is going somewhere and you weren't invited just remember to not invite yourself along, because they probably did it for a reason.  They may want to just go with other people this time.
