Current Event #3
Part of this chapter was dealing with optical illusions. It made me think of how many of them are out there, I mean the library has tons of books on optical illusions. And it seems like on a daily basis they are coming out with more of them. And people love them, I'm not saying that I don't, I use to love going to the library or on the computer and looking at them. But as I got older and learned what was really happening. That they really aren't moving, that our eyes are playing tricks on us. It kind of made looking at them not so much fun. And another thing that plays into that is it seems that whenever I start looking at the ones that move, I start to get a headache. And I can only look at them for so long. So some of the ones we had to look at for our blog, kind of gave me a headache. The illusions that don't move, don't bother me. In fact I still love finding those and looking at them. Some of them are really funny.

I found that they gave me a headache as well. However, I disagree with this post as well. I found that knowing that the illusions were our eyes playing tricks on us made me that much more amazed by them. The eyes are so complex and awesome. It just wanted to look at more.
