Google it

Howdy. Hope that your holiday season, if you celebrate, was fabulous.

I always think it's ...not so much rude... but interesting that people automatically assume that you celebrate the holiday season. Yes I understand that a large majority of people do, but let us not forget that there are some who don't believe in the commercialization of these two months.

...

Yeah.

So essentially, I hope that these past few weeks have been grand. Not because people tacked a special meaning to them, but because they were another day that you could see. Ya dig?

Anywho.

I'm currently working on a paper that is due on Friday for an art class I took in Greece. Their semester doesn't end until the end of January so technically I still have school. Ain't that some ish.

So blah dee da, I'm sitting here, struggling like none other because, let's be honest, I'm not programmed to work between mid-December/January (thank you US school systems for being so lenient), and the few times I can focus I can't find the necessary material I need to support my paper.

Just now I hopped onto Google (one of the best things about the world wide web. I wish I came up with it) and tried a new set of search terms and boom! Just like that, everything I need to finish this bad boy is laid out for me.

And this got me thinking:

You can search and search all you want, but until you ask the right question, using the right words, you will never get the answer you want.

You'll get something close to it, something that could suffice, but doesn't fulfill your exact specifications.

What does this all mean?

I guess just know exactly what you're searching for or you'll have a hard time finding it, if at all. There are thousands of results out there; narrow them down by using the right keywords.

Goodness. I should write fortune cookies... or something.

  1. Google is the truth and i agree that it makes a world of a difference if you know how to phrase your search, opposed to a wild search.
