I wanna be...
... a soul sufer. After recently watching the movie, Im hooked on surfing. I mean who wouyldnt wanna live in hawaii, be tan, have it be warm all the time, and be out on the water every day catching amazing forces of nature, waves. I am positive it would take a load of effort on my part to become good enough to go pro, but I am willing to take that challenge. Because a life as a surfer is a unique and holds a new exilerating experience evreyday. That is definantly something I would want to try, and master.
how to feel
"its better to give then it is to receive"
this saying is true in many ways, but i also believe it is somewhat misleading. If you give amazing gifts to other people, gifts that you put hours of effort into, and in return, you get some not so hot gifts, it doesnt feel good. you wish that your gift giver would have put more effort into his or her gift. I believe that this feeling is felt often, and isnt so awful to feel. everyone wants to feeel excited on christmas, and when you arent necisarilly wowed, it doest feel good. but you just have to tell myself, its the thought that counts. which i believe is comletely true. so in sense, it is okay to be disipointed and want fmore for christmas,because its humans' nature to want. but just remember to remember that it s the thought that counts.

Breaking Dawn
Breaking Dawn, the fourth movie of the twilight series, was very good. It continues the ragic llove triangle of Bella, Edward, and Jacob. It is part one of two movies. It depicts perfectly Bella and Edwards weddding, Jacobs agony, Bella and Edwards honeymoon, them conceieving their child, the pregnancy stage, the child birth, and Bella's transformation into a vampire. I highly recomend this movie to anyone who is a Twilight fan. You willl not be disipointed.

Basketball
November to March, five months of pure joy, not. Come one, come alll, because its basketbal season! As much as I should say I love basketbal, I cant. It can be fun, but it is alot of work, and I mean alot. Run, run, run, shoot, run, run, run. Get my point? You run 24/7, and oh my gosh, its sooo fun!... yeah right.
But the one upside in basketball is the thrilll of making a basket, or winning a game. But even these small feets can only be accomplished with loads and loads of work and practise.
So here is a word for the wise, if basketbal is your passion and goal in life, tryout. If not, why not join something alittle more easier, like the international food club!

Where is the love?
Where Is The Love?"
As you read this song, compare it to your life. Do you show love in ways that you should? If it were judgement day tomorow, would you be proud to be you? If you fufill everything a good person should, the you are perfect. But reality is , no one is perfect. Evalute yourself, how could you be a better person? Now that you have the right idea, be the change you want to see in the word ("mahatma gandhi").

What's wrong with the world, mama
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring you trauma
Overseas, yeah, we try to stop terrorism
But we still got terrorists here livin'
In the USA, the big CIA fightin'
The Bloods and The Crips and the KKK
But if you only have love for your own race
Then you only leave space to discriminate
And to discriminate only generates hate
And when you hate then you're bound to get irate, yeah
Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate
Let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all
People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek
Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love
The love, the love
It just ain't the same, always unchanged
New days are strange, is the world insane
If love and peace is so strong
Why are there pieces of love that don't belong
Nations droppin' bombs
Chemical gasses fillin' lungs of little ones
With ongoin' sufferin' as the youth die young
So ask yourself is the lovin' really gone
So I could ask myself really what is goin' wrong
In this world that we livin' in people keep on givin'
in
Makin' wrong decisions, only visions of them dividends
Not respectin' each other, deny thy brother
A war is goin' on but the reason's undercover
The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all, come on (I don't know)
Where's the love, y'all
People killin', people dyin'
Children hurt and you hear them cryin'
Can you practice what you preach
And would you turn the other cheek
Father, Father, Father help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questionin'
Where is the love (Love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love (The love)
Where is the love, the love, the love?
I feel the weight of the world on my shoulder
As I'm gettin' older, y'all, people gets colder
Most of us only care about money makin'
Selfishness got us followin' our wrong direction
Wrong information always shown by the media
Negative images is the main criteria
Infecting the young minds faster than bacteria
Kids wanna act like what they see in the cinema
Yo', whatever happened to the values of humanity
Whatever happened to the fairness in equality
Instead of spreading love we're spreading animosity
Lack of understanding, leading lives away from unity
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' under
That's the reason why sometimes I'm feelin' down
There's no wonder why sometimes I'm feelin' under
Gotta keep my faith alive till love is found
Now ask yourself
Where is the love?
Where is the love?

Essay
In all of these storys, the main character is trying to be an individual, but they are all doing it in a different way. The stories show the importance of being and individual whether the consequences are good or bad.
In Harrison Bergeron, Harrison is trying to be individualistic by being different. He trys to get people to take off their handicaps and be unique, just like he is unique. But this is ends badly for him in a world where everyone has to be the same.
In The Most Dangerous Game, Rainsford is not going to kill people to be the same as his captor. He could go along with the general and keep his own life safe, but he refuses to follow the groove. Even though he almost was killed, his individualism helped him keep his humanity. He is individual in the process.
In Initiation, Millicent chooses not to join a popular group so she can be individual. When offered a rare opportunity, one would think she'd grasp the chance. Millicent shows that being an individual is more important then following the crowd.

Seasons
The fall is here, summer is done
And that means cold, no more sun.
The leaves are brown,along with the grass
Oh how I wish summer would last.
The falls not so bad,its not alwayys cold
But winter is next,and it quickly gets old.
Then comes spring, a tricky wet season
Its slowly getting sunny,but then it rains for some reason.
And as soon as its gone, summer is back
It is truly the best of the seasons, and that is a fact.
And that means cold, no more sun.
The leaves are brown,along with the grass

Rating Grade Videos
After watching all four videos, it was pretty easy to decide which were the best and worst.
1) Video number eight (getting a good grade on your final) was the most helpful because this is my first year with finals and I learned how to study for them.
2) Video number five (how to survive tests) was the second best because it offered the most useful information next to number eight.
3) Video number four (how to get your teachers attention) was the second to last because I thought it was boring and I didnt think any of those techniques would work.
4) Video number seven (how to survive a busy scheduale) was last because the irl did not talk in it and I didnt think the random students offered much help.
