Texting Vs. Calling

Have you ever gotten a text that sounds rude, but it could be meant in a good way? I have, and let me tell you, I'm not so excited about getting one because you don't know if they're mad or if they're okay with it. Do you know what I'm saying? I hope so.I admit sometimes I'd rather just text somebody so that I don't really know their real reaction but in some cases, it'd be better to just know. So that's where calling comes in. Adults usually will say, "Back when I was a kid, we didn't have cell phones that we could text with, so why don't you just call that person?” Whenever somebody says that, honestly, it drives me nuts. In my opinion, who cares what went on in the past? It's over! It's the twentieth century for goodness sake! Anyways, calling is good, I think when it’s with somebody you really want to talk with. I think texting is just a way to talk to people you really don't want to talk to.But don't get me wrong, I absolutely love texting. But if they didn't invent it, I think I'd live, unlike some people in this world. Ahem, not saying any names. Texting is good in certain situations. Like, when you're in a meeting and you can't call somebody, or when you secretly want to leave a party or a friend’s house, or when you want to tell somebody something without the whole world knowing, or if you can't call somebody at that moment. But people who text in class and just looking for ways not to pay attention, that sounds weird but it's true. People chose not to listen while in class so they do things so that they don't have to listen, and texting is a good way of how to do that.
Calling on the other hand, is a good communication tool that everybody should use a lot in their life. If you haven’t noticed, people who text all day and abbreviate words, end up not having good penmanship. Calling and actually talking to people will help your social skills, and it won’t ruin your penmanship.
Many of you who might read this will totally disagree with me, because they are the people who text all day and have troubles with their penmanship. When it comes down to calling or texting, just call them!

S'mores!!!!!

Have you ever really thought about making the perfect smore? Well I have! I've been at my friends cabin the passed weekend, (which is why I didn't do my Honors English assignments! I know, naughty me!) and I have found the way to make a perfect smore! And I'm gunna tell you the secret! Are you ready? I hope so! Okay, shh...(I'm whispering) its what's in the smore that counts! You need three things! A gram cracker, hersheys chocolate....and.....A MARSHMALLOW!!! Haha, so you see every ingredient is very important and I'm going to tell you why!
First you have to have a gram cracker! Without the gram cracker your going to have a marshmallow with melted chocolate and it's going to get all over you fingers and hands and face and it will just be a big, huge mess. It also gives it kind of like a sweet and salty taste because it isn't all sugar in there!
Second you have to have hersheys chocolate! Without the chocolate your going to have a gram cracker with a toasted marshmallow on it. It's going to be dry and crumbly and just plain. The chocolate adds this wonderful touch to the smore that makes you want to have another...and another...and another! Chocolate is a comfort food and without it you can't even call a smore a smore!
And third you have to have a marshmallow! Haha, it's kinda silly to think of a smore without a marshmallow because we all know that it isn't a smore without a marshmallow or chocolate or a gram cracker! The marshmallow is just so fluffy and sweet and creamy and delicious...just reading this makes my mouth water...haha...I LOVE SMORES!
So, you see, all of these are very important factors, and without them you aren't going to have a delicious, melt in your mouth, warm your throat, smore. All you need are those three things and of course a heat source, and then all your worries and just slip away because that smore is going to take you to your happy place and that will be your happy hour! :)

Another Update on Halloween

So, I was going to dress up but then I decided...I don't want to go through all that trouble of getting all dressed up and only wearing your costume for a couple of hours. Maybe I'm just growing up finally...haha now that was the funniest thing I have said all day, literally. Anyways, I know that it is going to upset my mother, but she is just going to have to face the fact that I'm not doing it...sorry for those of you who actually thought I was going to dress up!

Being Bored

I have decided that being bored is dumb. Though it does happen to people, I still think it is dumb. I mean come on, why does there have to be a time where you have nothing to do and nobody can hang out? I think it is just plain stupid. So, what I have thought of doing is something spectacular, in my world. And for your information, yes I do sometimes go to this place where I float on clouds and play with fluffy cats. Okay, that was a joke, but I have made a list of things that you can do when you think you are getting bored, so that you really don't get bored and your life then gets better.
  1. You can take a shower and get ready for the day again.
  2. You can watch every movie in your house, which by the way will take a couple days if not a week.
  3. Call some random person in your address book that you have not talked to in a long time and talk to them for as long as you can.
  4. Make some yummy foods.
  5. Surf the web for stupid things to do.
  6. Watch five minutes of every show that is on the T.V.
  7. Run around outside acting like a gorilla. (And as a matter of fact, yes I was even thinking that you should scratch yourself and make ooo ahhh sounds.)
  8. And last but not least call your friends!

So you see with my list of things to do, you shouldn't get bored, and if you do...that is your own darn fault!

AdDiCtInG fAcEbOoK

How many people ready this already have a facebook? Actually don't answer that...I am pretty sure 90% of you do, so you don't need to tell me if you do or not. Have you ever noticed that when you are on facebook, the world around you sort of drifts away and you are in your own little world? Well, I have noticed it and I am pretty sure most of you have too.
There are just so many things to do on facebook. You can upload pictures, look at other peoples pictures and profiles, you can take quizzes, you can instant message your friends, and play lots of fun games. There are soo many things you can do on it that it is addicting! You can spend hours and hours on it everytime time you just get on to update your status or accept a friend request.
In my opinion, facebook is a blast but it is too addicting. I find myself on it hours a day and it's starting to affect more than just me. So, what I'm trying to say is, maybe make a time limit when you are on facebook if you have a problem with staying on for long periods of times. I am pretty sure it will work.

Trouble at Lagoon

Have you ever been to Lagoon and you see somebody with the police and you know that they are in trouble? Or have you ever been on the other end of that?
Well, when I was ten years old my friend, Devan, and I were riding the sky ride, when we decided to do something stupid. We hocked some loogies, found some people down on the ground, and we spit on their heads. We laughed and laughed, not thinking of what was going to happen when we reach the end of our ride. We did it again and we saw the ride was coming to an end.
Standing by the exit, full in uniform, and not looking too happy, was a police officer with his arms crossed. I gulped, thinking that my last breath was going to be soon. Why did I have to be so stupid? Maybe, just maybe that cop isn't waiting for us. Maybe he's just partolling the park.
I was wrong. He was waiting for us. I started to sweat as he pulled us to the side. "Were you girls spitting off the ride?" My heart skipped a beat and I didn't want to say anything. I was ten. How could I already be a criminal? I felt horrible.
We admitted to our wrongs and as a punishment, no we didn't get our passes taken away, but we got to clean all the bathrooms that Lagoon owned. Now, let me tell ya...that was not fun! I was so embarrassed as people walked in and out of the bathrooms, laughing at whispering about us.
I vowed then and there that I would always follow the rules at Lagoon and never even break the smallest one. I hated cleaning bathrooms, and cleaning them at Lagoon was a hundred times worse then cleaning them at home.
So, what I'm trying to say is, follow the rules because one day when you aren't following them you're going to get caught. And you aren't going to like the what they make you do to repay for your damage.
