Life force. Does it even exist? In the following essay inspired by ePOD, various religions and the sciences, I will prove that it does exist.. or at least something similar to it. And by the way, I like amoeba.
Let's start off simply. Think of a basic living thing, say, an amoeba. An amoeba is made up of many organelles and these organelles are made of many different kinds of molecules. Break down these molecules and you get atoms, the most basic form of matter. Basically, all living things are made up of matter.
There are about a hundred and fifty different types of discovered atoms that make up the universe. These atoms may remain as singles and form elements or become chemically combined with other atoms by chemical methods like heat and electricity to form compounds. This means that if our technology gets advanced enough, we will be able to put together many different elements and compounds to form a living creature, like amoeba. But will it be living?
I doubt it. After doing all that, all you would get is probably a dead amoeba. There is something which sparks life in living cells.. Is it chemical energy? Heat energy? Electrical energy? Nuclear energy? Kinetic energy? If you apply the first type of energy I have stated, I doubt anything will happen. Apply the others and you will be destroying the cell. So now the question is- What sparks life?
Let's look at living things. They don't appear out of thin air. As far as we are certain of, living things only come from other living things of the same species which reproduce to form them. And due to the programming of the living things' genetic material, the materials needed to form their offspring are already obtained and are used precisely, technology superior to anything we are able to do today. And with that complex tranfer of matter, the Thing that sparks life goes with it, into the new living thing.
I won't be biased against any religion but as an atheist I have to continue. Please stop reading here if you're not an atheist.
Trace back that Thing to the point when science states life first existed. It states something about a primordial sea, where conditions were hostile. Cysteamine, pantoyl lactone and methane were present then, some building blocks of living things. So we got our car.. but what about the fuel?
Now it's time for the guessing game. How did this Thing, which I shall now call Life Force (lame name but I have to call it something), come about? Was it the will of a supernatural force? Is there a type of energy we have yet to discover which was present in those times?
The answer remains shrouded in mystery. By the way I'm not serious about this essay so if you get offended in any way or spot any mistakes, then post a message in my CBOX and I'll do something about it.

Rumours -.-
It started like this- some annoying person from my class added me to a mass convo. Somehow, I added one female person in that conversation. Don't ask me how.. might have been a misclick. Well after that everything was fine.. until one day when I actually went to speak to that female person.
Thinge were still "normal" then. We chatted. Nothing more. Then I had to go and ask her for her phone number -.-
Well, soon after I got her number, my phone broke because of reasons unrelated to this topic. I sent it for repair and my mother lent me one of her spare phones. Unfortunately, I saved all my contacts on my phone, so I didn't have any of them on this phone.
One day in class, when we were all really bored, I looked through my phone's message inbox. I could identify most of the numbers, but there were a few which I couldn't identify. A classmate took my phone and tried to identify it for me but it turned out he messaged the person instead.
Soon after that, he discovered that person's identity. Since there were some people crowded around there who knew that particular girl, an outburst on her "bad qualities" started. I was slightly amazed about knowing these things about that girl so I went to talk to her about it.
Meanwhile, rumours that I knew her spread really fast. At first only five people knew about this but that girl posted up something I did on msn with her on her blog. It turns out that not everyone's blog is as quiet as mine so you can guess what happened.
So the rumours kept spreading. At first it was a quarter of my class, then it was half the level and now it's spread over a few levels.
At training today, a teamate shouted something stupid which was related to that rumour. And he's a senior.
I swear I will stop them. Only the rumours =) (I'm not changing any spelling or grammar mistakes in here)

SAY CHEESE!
CHEESE! *runs to the sink*
OMG I've never ever EVER tasted cheese as bad smelling, atrocious tasting and terrible looking as the BLUE PILE OF GUNK a.k.a. blue cheese- the fermented(I prefer the term "rotten") cheese.
Ok, imagine the zoo uncleaned for a month. That's what it smelled like. Imagine mouldy bread so mouldy that it becomes runny. And.. I can't think of anything that matches it's taste.. probably chillies peppers mixed with durian mixed with century eggs mixed with rotten eggs(never tasted before) and.. drainwater?
Anyway, I'm never tasting obscure foreign cheese again =P

Effects of Boredom
If you would even be reading this nasty first post of mine then it would probably be a result of me bugging you to read it. Sorry for wasting your time but that's what boredom does to me =(. I guess I'll write some stuff about me below to make this post seem longer.
3 Things I like: Me, mirrors and myself
What I do to relieve boredom: There's a reason why I'm so bored -.-
My favourite hobbies: Sleeping and stoning
My favourite food: Anything that contains CPE.
How I look like: Homo Sapien
What I hate: People who care about me
Average sleeping time per day: 5 hours
How much of my life is over: About 1/7
Oh BTW.. I'm a short, fat, weak, ugly, stupid, tidy, rich, arrogant freak. And you're a toad.
