Bloody heck, what are you doing?

Hello Internet,

So today I was walking home. A fairly nice day as a matter of fact. I had a good day at the start, which was ruined by a dance (I went to study hall, might talk about later), and a brief, but painful confrontation of a former classmate that I hate.

Anyways, back on topic. Again, I was walking home from my alright day when I look over to my right to see a playground for students attending the school nearby.

All the innocent little kids played their with their friends with their little adventure, all those good memories rushing back.

Until I saw this lady with one foot on a metal bar you are supposed to climb on, rubbing her foot on it. I was utterly disgusted beyond my belief. It was a disturbing sight, seeing her foot being rubbed vigorously on a bar that might just be infected with lots of germs.

I must say, I am scarred for life. I will not forget this image for a long time.

So, my question for you today would be: what was the weirdest, most disturbing, grossest, etc. thing you ever saw? How did you react? Post your comments below.

Hah, first post (on howsmyapp.com)

Hello Internet,

I have recently submitted my app review for Plants vs. Zombies on How's My App. I suggest you go check the website out (the URL is on the side) and I will keep posting there.

I will also keep posting here, so don't worry about me.

By the way, you will have to check for yourself if I'm posting on the website or not, I won't tell you.

Oh! Happy Day!

Hello Internet,

So two things happened today that really made my day, and one that destroyed it, so in all, it was a good day.

First off would be the negative part of my day. We were working on a project for about a month. We had to make 2 of the same project. The first one apparently wasn't good enough for the teacher. We made a second one and put less glue. When we took it out to test it, it was all bent and broken, so he told us to go make another one. I know, sucks. I hate that teacher.

Well, for the first thing that was positive of my day was that my good friend at www.howsmyapp.com - check it out - accepted my request for joining his site.

The second would be that, for once in a very long time, I upgraded a bit of technology. That would be my iPod. Every other thing is still as old as can be, so I'm happy that for once, I am finally caught up in today's technology.

Well, that was my day, what about your day? How was it? What happened? Leave a comment below.

What are they teaching in schools?

Hello Interwebs,

I was coming back from some lessons and I was listening on the radio that next year, they are going to teach more about sex ed.

I'll tell you what they said the government is doing, but remember, there is a bit of language revolving around sex ed that will be coming up, so viewer discretion is advised (not really).

Just a reminder, this post has a bit of more mature language. If you are too immature to handle that, scroll down quickly with your eyes closed.

Well, apparently they are going to be teaching about homosexuality to first graders. That's right, first graders! I know it is about homosexual marriages, but how in the world will a parent of the child look the teacher in the eye when she knows he/she is teaching all this fun, cuddly (again, not really) stuff and sex ed at the same time. I think that this should at least be postponed until the third grade.

Also, they are going to be teaching about masturbation to sixth graders. Yes, you read this post correctly, they are going to be teaching kids about the act of pleasing your sex organs. No joke, this was on the news. I do believe the next generation does deserve to know about this, but I think this topic should be postponed to at least grade 7.

Finally, in grade 7, they area teaching about anal and oral sex. Now they are just getting a bit out of hand here. I'm pretty sure everyone should be able to figure out what both of these mean through the internet. Quite disgusting indeed. Now, actually, I believe this topic really should be kept where it is as people really should be concerned about the possible health effects of oral or anal sex.

Well, at least the government is thinking about what might have gotten into other generations with these "facts" your friends make up just to try to sound smart. I bet the government is simply tired of people going out and making some 14 year old female pregnant or hearing people walk down the street giving away false information, or even forcing these kids to learn through experience or other sources. Well, I believe that it is a good idea, just move the topics up a couple of grades.

That was a long write-up. Anyways, post your comments about your opinion to this topic. Do you think it is a good or bad idea to teach kids about sex? Post your comments below.

By the way, please don't judge me by this topic. I heard this on the news, I thought it was an interesting topic to share to you who don't live around the area or don't read the news.

Drive-through ATM's


Hello Internet,

On my way home from some lessons on Wednesday, I looked out the window and saw a bank. Now, this bank was a normal bank, with the one exception of the fact that it had a drive through.

Maybe I am just a bit slow when it comes down to technology (I still have a Gamecube, I'm not going any farther in the Apple products, and I still watch t.v. from a small screen). Maybe life is becoming to simple. Maybe it's a way to make it easier for people to find out your bank pin. I don't know, you tell me. Post a comment on why you think they are making drive through ATM's now.

My opinion is that people have become lazy to the point in which walking is too difficult, even if it only about 50 meters away from your car. People have to have things done right where they are sitting.

Also, technology has gotten advanced to the point in which people invent these pointless, wasteful machines simply because they can and they can make a profit from it.

Well, that's just my opinion, so, again, post you comment below.

Disapointments

Hello Internet,

Don't you just hate it when your friend or family member or someone else lets you down one way or another? Well, that just happened to me. I was supposed to go watch a move (Date Night if you must) with my sister.

Well, actually, we were supposed to watch it right after school, but my sister was taking some lessons, so she didn't come home until around 6 p.m. By then, we had dinner and it wasn't until around an hour ago (7 p.m.) when I asked if we were going to watch a movie.

My sister then suggested Date Night and I was all excited about going. Since it is at 9, our parents were concerned about our safety and they didn't want to watch Date Night, so they asked their friends if they wanted to go with them to watch Shutter Island.

Their plan backfired. None of them wanted to go, and since we don't have any safe form of transportation (to them at least, I wouldn't mind walking by myself at night) so we couldn't go.

So many other times I have been disappointed when my friend told me that they couldn't go with me somewhere or something else.

What about you? Have you ever been disappointed when someone says that they can't go or you can't go with them? Post a comment and share your thoughts about disappointments.

Awkward Situation


Hello Internet,

So, today I went to attend my friend's birthday party. Well, since my friend and I had to go to different schools, we have a different group of friends. Well, my friend's friends were new to me.

So, I, as my nervous self around new people, kept quiet around them and tried to stay away from most of the talking, since I didn't know what type of jokes they like, the websites the like, the games they enjoy playing. I let the others do most of the talking while I simply did my thing.

I didn't say most of the jokes I would say around my friends since I knew what type of jokes they liked, and some of the jokes my friend's friends told, I didn't find funny whatsoever.

I felt awkward and isolated. It was like the feeling the day I started school. I didn't want to talk to anyone since I went to a different school than the rest of my friends.

Well, that's enough about me. What about you? What do you do when you are with a group of people that you don't know that much about? Post a comment and share your own thoughts.

Family Fun Time

Hello Internet,

2 things. First, 60th post, yay!

Anyways, the second thing would be that I went to the zoo with my family today. We walked for practically 5 or so hours. Our feet at the end were very sore, however, it was very fun going there. We saw many different animals, and all that stuff, the only thing would be that I already saw those animals at least 5 times before.

The good thing about this trip, however, would be that I got to spend lots of time with my family, which is good. We took many pictures and we had a good time. We visited the usual, except one area since we were way to tired.

Well, I'm tired right now anyways, so I will like to simply say: happy Easter Sunday/Monday, depending if you celebrate or just take the Monday off. So, how did you spend your Easter, or how to you plan to spend your day off, if you have one? Post your comments and share what your doing this holiday.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid and How to Train Your Dragon

Hello Internet,

Last Saturday I went to watch two movies: Diary of a Wimpy Kid and How to Train Your Dragon.

I'll start off with Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid really wasn't that good of a movie. If you are about 8 years old and you enjoyed the book, I would assume you would like this movie. Otherwise, I would recommend you stay away from this movie.

The acting was good, it's just the characters. They have a very cliche personality. A middle school kid who is just a jerk, until he learns his lesson at the end of the movie, an older brother who is mean to his little brother, etc. Everything you'd expect about a stereotypical Caucasian family with 3 kids.

The story is basically the usual lesson that you learn in grade 1. Don't discriminate and be a good friend by sticking up for them.

So, again, if you liked the book, check it out, but don't expect anything good. I would give this movie a 5/10.

Now, How to Train Your Dragon was actually a good movie. How to Train Your Dragon had intense action scenes which kept me on the edge of my seat.

The story, however, was a typical "find someone/thing that character likes, but gets rejected". Alright, so maybe you don't get as many movies like that, which is really good.

There's not much to say about the movie without spoiling it, but it is indeed a very good movie. Go watch it. I would rate this movie a 8/10.

Well, that's just my opinion, if you read the book of either movie, or watched the movie, tell me, did you enjoy it? Did you loathe it? Post your comments below.

Bringing home an instrument

Hello Internet,

My school has a stings program in which I have to take otherwise I won't get a mark for it. So, I tried out the bass first, then the viola. I decided to stick with the bass because I wanted to play it.

Well, in case you didn't know, a bass is an extremely large instrument. Well, since it is the long weekend, I decided to take it home. I wanted to practice over the weekend.

My mom picked me up from school so I could actually transport the bass home. When I actually put it down in my room, I noticed it was about half the size of my room.

Later that night I practiced for about a half hour. It was fun and my sister helped me a bit since she use to have that same teacher when she went to my school.

Not much else happened, but I guarantee that I won't be taking it home unless there is a long weekend. I just had to get a post out.
