Ok so I have a few problems with the whole, "Where's Waldo" thing. You know, where you searching for a man, wearing a red and white striped shirt and hat, on a book page full of chaos. One of my problems with this is that its considered "entertainment". What?!?!?! It's stressful! Allow me to explain, you are trying to find ONE little man on a page where five million other things are going on! You get distracted by what the other people on the page are doing and why there are about 15 other people dressed just like Waldo, but they aren't Waldo(reason for stress #1)! Then you try to tell yourself that the real Waldo is right there in front of you face, so you stare even harder, therefore straining your eyes (reason for stress #2). But that doesn't stop you! No, you are a skilled detective in training, and you can spot things right away! Skilled people must have self-discipline strategies, right? So you tell yourself, "I will not eat another chip, until I find Waldo!", but when the bag is empty and Waldo is still missing you feel guilt, shame, and thirst(reason for stress #3).
Now that you feel ashamed, guilty, thirsty, have lost self-confidence, self-discipline, and the dream of becoming detective, AND have strained eyes, you give up and reach to turn the page. Just as your finger touches the page you look down to make sure you are only turning one page instead of two. You gasp! Lifting your finger off the page you see that Waldo was right under your finger! You are so proud and keep congratulating yourself as you run to go get a drink of water! The cool water reassures you that you can still become a detective, you no longer feel ashamed or anything. You run back to where you were sitting, pick up the book, proceed to turn the page(smiling as you cover Waldo up with your finger again), reach the new page...........and start the whole process over again. Yay.
That being said, here is a "Where's Waldo?" picture for you to search. If you don't know what Waldo looks like, google it.
