Red or Blue Pill?

I took the red pill, because i want to live in the real world where I am not being deceived. I have a drive to know everything I can to build on my own knowledge. I would risk giving up my accepted life in order to find out the truth. I often think about deep, thought provoking questionsin my spare time. Answers to these questions have always been out of reach. I would hope by taking the red pill, I would be able to find the answers at any cost. This approach of risking everything to further my knowledge is how I have approached my life so far. In school, I try to learn everything a teacher has to offer. Each teacher can provide a variety of information, all of which helps students develop. Taking the red pill would sum up my views on how to go through life.

For my project in Computer Science Class, I am planning on creating a baseball store as apart as the alternate universe. The baseball store will start have multiple sections that will include everything needed to play the game and improve one's skills. One section of the store will sell baseball equipment seperated into youth, high school, college, and professional level equipment. We will have trained professional managers who can assist anyone with choosing the correct equipment for their skill level. Another section of the store will be a batting cage and a room with padded floors. This section will be available for rent or for individual use. Also on certain nights, there will be baseball coaches at our store that will lead different skill building sessions, that will vary in cost.

The website that I am making to support this store will provide an online connection to the store. Through the website, a customer will be able to check our store hours, get the number to call the store, and email baseball coaches. It will also include a schedule of events for camps and skill sessions that will be held in the facilities. You will also be able to sign up for the camps through the website. It will be a fully functioning site that supplies the basic information of the store, such as the location.

My podcast will follow up on the same theme as my website. Combined with three other kids in my class, we will broadcast a high school game between Saint Mary's High School and Archbishop Spalding. This will be a game will be generated through a game called dice baseball. Our teacher Mr. Constantine or one of the group members will roll the dice that controls what happens in the game. The game involves rolling two dice for which the values determine the outcome of the pitch. A higher number will bring about a better effect for the team up at bat. In the broadcast, we will try and make it as real as possible, imitating professional broadcasters. We hope to do a complete game as long as there is enough time to complete the project.

Neo and the Counselor were discussing the idea of control. Control is an interesting idea. One can never truely be free. Something in everyone's life exerts some kind of control. For the people in the matrix, the machines control the minds of everyone. In real life, people are controlled by physical laws and moral implications of one's actions.

Neo just realized that the Oracle is part of the machines program and Neo has to wonder whether or not he can trust her. In talking to the Oracle, Neo starts to understand the dream he has been having. Neo has gained the ability to see into the future, but he cant see past the decisions he does not understand. Neo has to see the keymaker in order to end the war between man and machines.

Agent Smith has returned and is no longer an agent of the computer system. When Neo ended Smith's life, he overwrite part of Smith's program so that he could not die. By releasing him from the system, he gained powers the other agents could not possess.

The wife of the French man led Neo to the Keymaker in revenge for her husband cheating on her. The Keymaker provides the key Neo needs to get to the source in order to end the war. Morphius and Trinity are left to fight off two guys that have the ability to become spirits that cannot be injured. Trick doors keep seperating Neo from Morphius and Trinity, so he has to fly 500 miles to catch up.

The Matrix Day Three

We began today with one of the best scenes in the movie, when Trinity and Neo come in to rescue Morphius from the agents. Neo and Trinity are lighting up the place with their multitude of guns. Neo just dodged bullets just like the agents. After saving Trinity from the falling helicopter, everyone knows that Neo is the one.

Neo starts to believe that he is the one when he decides to fight the agent instead of running. Neo is able to escape the agent, but he returns right away. He then has to run from three agents so he can get out of the matrix.

Although the agent unloaded a clip into Neo's body, because he is the One. Neo is able to live through it and kill the agents.

The movie ends with Neo flying around in the Matrix.
