Last night when I told my mom that I wasn't going to be watching TV this week, she got kind of upset, because now she has no one to go "Oh my god, Michael" with her when The Office is on. Normally every night, before bed, I watch. I plop down on the couch, and as soon as I hit the cushions, all the stress; school, homework, and more school, trickles its way out of my brain. This time is the time of day when I am just sitting there with no purpose, and I must admit, it's one of my favorite times of day. Now, I'll have to find a new form of relaxation....
Two themes that were prominent in Thoreau's writings was individuality and most importantly, simplicity. He stressed that people should do what they are meant to do and also keep their everyday needs, wants, and jobs down to a minimum.
