superheroes DO exist.

Came across this story on another blog, it's so cute I had to share it.

spider-man rescues autistic thai boy

This is an awesome story out of Thailand... This week in Bangkok, a fireman dressed up as the wall-crawling costumed superhero Spider-Man to coax a frightened autistic eight-year-old from a balcony: Thai fireman in 'spider-man' rescue of autistic boy.

Teachers at a special needs school reportedly alerted authorities when the student, scared of attending his first day at school, sat out on the third-floor ledge and refused to come inside.

Upon hearing about the boy's love of superheroes, fireman Sonchai Yoosabai jumped into action. He dashed back to his fire station, made a quick change into a Spider-Man costume and returned to the boy, urging him to come off the ledge with no problem.

Spidey saves the day. The question is, what is the guy doing with a Spider-Man getup in his locker? He apparently keeps the costume, along with an Ultraman outfit at the station in order to liven up school fire drills.

pandora is my study buddy.

I used to believe that the internet was the bane of my academic existence. YouTube, Facebook, chatting and blogging epitomize countless squandered hours.

Recently, I've come to the realization that Pandora goes against that trend. I love Pandora. Somehow I feel like it just knows me and what I want to hear. And I particularly love Pandora when I study.

For those who like studying with instrumental piano try "Jim Brickman." Also, for those who just want to rock out to the best Pandora channel ever try "Viva La Vida - Coldplay."

So for those who have been nagging me about not blogging... I'm back. And more precious hours will be squandered in the name of blogging.

introduction: first things first.

hello world.

And welcome to my blog. I decided to start a blog just so that I can share my thoughts about anything and everything. My blog is entitled "the Eloquence of Action" because I think Bill hit the nail right on the head; action is the means of forceful and fluent expression. Action is what's needed in this world full of apathy and lip-service.

As you probably could have guessed, I'm a busy-body. I can't stand being idle or wasting time. I blog to share my thoughts, my opinions, my exciting stories, my miserable days. Hopefully my blog will not only demonstrate the eloquence of action but it'll encourage you to act as well.

So begins my journey of blogging, until next time...

cheers.
