Give me something to build
November 18, 2015 at 9:06 pm
I have a week off of school coming up for thanksgiving.
I have always wanted to build/invent things but always make excuses, am indecisive, and don't feel like starting on something.
I've always felt like I could invent things, but never actually attempted to.
This is not for you[popularity/showing off] it's for me, I would like a suggestion of something to build/invent, not too complicated,
What i'm saying is, no manuals, none of that, I want someone to make a suggestion along the lines of "find a way to do _" and I will attempt it.
I'm indecisive. I can find ways around things, and think outside of the box, but mostly only when someone tells me to do something, I have trouble acting on my thoughts .
Anyway, I've been wanting to start a project like this for a while, an intellectual challenge of sorts, just keep not getting around to it.
Give me a suggestion, if I think it's decent enough i'll commit to it, go out and buy whatever I need, and post a picture at the end of next week regardless of whether or not I fail.
Which is better:
To die with ignorance, or to live with intelligence?
Truth doesn't accommodate to personal opinions.
The choice is yours.

Make me one too !!
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

A rocket that can go to space.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

I don't know.
What are you good at making?
What interests you?

What interests you? I've never tried making anything, that's the point, because I don't really know
I would like someone to suggest a random thing to invent, regardless of if it's necessary
I don't know, I just want a challenge that requires me to problem solve.

Invent self ripping toilet paper.
A self immolating bible/quran?
