I have so many favorites from this album! Idiot Box, Favorite Things, Anti-gravity, etc. This album has many gems that unfortunately aren't played live often. My current favorite song off of S.C.I.E.N.C.E. is Redefine.
Incubus added this track to their set list during their Light Grenades tour and they deliver a killer performance by experimenting with an acoustic cover of it.
The song overall is amazing lyrically & musically.
My favorite stanza is, "I'm sick of painting in black and white / My pen is dry, now I'm uptight / So sick of limiting myself to your definition / Redefine."

After conversing with the man from yesterday, I feel like I have a whole new perspective on my high school life. I'm praying to God and hoping that I stop comparing myself to my peers and others around me. I should be content with who I am and where I'm now in my life because I did it myself. I busted my ass, did all the work, and I've made it this far. The man told me that if I really believe in my dreams and genuinely try my hardest to reach my goals, then I would.
Today I was only able to greet him but my mother spoke to him more. Mother said that he told her that if I ever had any questions about universities or school to give him a call. According to mother, he also said that he really feels that I'll be successful; that I'll be someone.
I was shocked; I only met the man one day and he's already praising me. I'm always skeptical about this but I can't help but feel like the compliment is genuine and I get a happy tingling feeling.
Ugh. I am in love with him. He's wonderful! I don't think I'll ever forget him, he's left his footprint on my heart.
