I'm a guy

I'm a guy, I'm supposed to...
not care about how I present myself
not shave
care about sports
know everything about cars
work out everyday
talk about girls 
act like a jerk 
not show my inner feelings
not cry in front of anyone
toughen up and be a man
be dominant
act violent towards my friends
be masculine
be the knight and shining armor
be a slob
be the modern man.


Let's all throw these stereotypes out the door.  We live in a new generation, let's not screw it up for the next.  No more male stereotypes, there is too much of them and I'm absolutely sick of them.  Let guys live the way they want to without society telling us that we have to be masculine.  Leave the magazines, books, and movies. Educate yourselves.  The world is filled with diversity, get used to it.

What am I thankful for?

I didn't really get to talk about what I'm thankful for in life.  Thanksgiving has passed but these are things I'm grateful for everyday of my life.

Friends
Heck yeah!  Without friends I would be going crazy and I would need therapy.  It's hard to find friends and I'm happy with mine.

The Internet
Oh you have no idea how I love the internet!  There is so much information that the internet provides for us... I do not want to let that go to waste.  So much to learn about the world and the internet is easily attainable.

My blog
I'm absolutely thankful for this blog.  Without my blog I would feel like my opinions would not be heard.  I started this blog so my voice can be heard.  It is like a diary yet I share it to the world... not in a weird way :P. 

Video Games
What is life without entertainment?!  Oh how I love video games!  Nothing else to say except the fact that video games consume 19% of my brain! 

Other people's blogs
I don't really mention other people's blogs but I read a handful of blogs and they always inspire me.  I'm thankful because they send positive messages and they inspire me to keep on going.  Have to share some blogs I read!

Those are few of the things I'm grateful for... trust me I have many more but I feel like I never talk about what I'm thankful for.  I really hope you all enjoyed Thanksgiving!  Time for another week of school!  Have an extravagant night!

Surprise! News People

Suprise!  I'm not home yet but there is internet here and my sister brought her laptop so... might as well put something up!  Today let's talk about news reporters and news people.  Oh my gosh today my sister showed me an article about how Twilight causes seizures... I laughed so hard when reading it.  It goes to show how pathetic the newspaper is.  I glance at the newspaper here and there and some articles are absolutely ridiculous.  I remember one time one person on t.v. was hosting a live gay marriage on his show and he showed a compilation of clips of news reporters all saying the exact same things.  They all said how he was "pushing the envelope".  What shocked me the most was that all of them said the EXACT same thing!  People constantly need a story to put out.  When they find one they flip the whole story for it to be "exciting".  This is why I don't watch the news, they completely lie.  There is one thing to like about the news!  Their absurd stories make me laugh so hard!  That's my post for tonight, I might put one up on Sunday.  Get some rest!  Have a restful night!

Respect Teachers

I am impressed with teachers.  They have to put up with bratty teenagers 5 days a week.  They have to put up with complaining, ungrateful, annoying teenagers.  I must say I respect you teachers!  It must be tough, dealing with different types of personalities each day.  Not to mention they have to get up as early as us :/.  Sure there are those teachers who never have a great attitude.  Yet they keep calm when situations happen.  I would like to be in a teacher's shoes for one day to see how they must feel about us.  Do they think we are crazy?  Do they think we are annoying?  Do they think we are smart?  So many questions I have about teachers.  I'm making them sound like they are a different type of species :P.   Again, I applaud you teachers for sticking it out to give us the education we need.  I also applaud you for making class an enjoyable experience.  The only people who make class lame are the people.  Without teachers, we the students would be lost in our studies.  They take the time to help us and assist us with issues at school or with our personal life.  So for all teachers... I owe all my respect towards you!!!!


Just a reminder I will be out of town for Thanksgiving therefore I won't have blog posts up until I get back.  I might be back by Saturday or Sunday so look for a post on either of those days!  Be thankful for everything you have :)!

Celebrities

I apologize for no entry yesterday.  It was my birthday and I decided to take a little day off.  Now I'm ready to make a new post!  


I feel bad for celebrities.  Why?  They have to put up with paparazzi.  I feel bad because they have no privacy whatsoever.  It does make me mad however that if a celebrity does something wrong the whole world shuns them.  General people are crazy yet when a higher rank of people (celebrities) does something wrong the whole world is in awe.  I don't see why we put celebrities as high ranks of people.  I do feel bad for them because they have no privacy.  Lots of rumors are made about them and we always believe them.  Also, we tend to make them look bad on purpose.  During interviews, people ask them the most ridiculous questions to make sure they look bad on screen.  We need to stop worrying about these celebrities.  They apparently share a life with the whole world.  Why can't we leave them alone?  That's it for tonight, I have another entry up tomorrow!  Be happy today!

High School Dropouts

This is a very touchy topic for some people.  I would like to say that this is my opinion and it is not intended to hurt anyone.  


The dropout rate is increasing each year.  Why?  Well about 40% of people say that middle school never prepared them for high school.  There really isn't a way to prepare yourself for high school.  The only thing they told me about high school was the credits and some classes I could take.  That's the only way to "prepare" yourself for high school.  Entering high school is like entering a new realm.  I know that sounds cheesy :P.  One other interesting reason is that the classes are not interesting... how are they not interesting?!  It really depends on where you go but there is so much classes you can take in high school!  I always thought in middle school there was absolutely nothing interesting.  While typing this I found a website on different reasons to why people drop out.  One reason that caught my attention was, "too much freedom".  This is very interesting.  The guy talked about how he saw other people doing whatever they wanted to do.  Essentially what I'm getting from this is that rules aren't strict enough?  High school isn't too hard.  All you have to do is show up and do your work.  Nothing in life is easy and that's the cold truth.  You can't just wing high school, you have to put some effort towards it.  Now there is another big reason for dropouts.  Some are influenced by friends.  Now that's a different topic I'll discuss later.  Later folks!  Have a majestic day!!!

I'm a Grammar Freak

Yes I'm one of those nerds who corrects people's sentences.  My issue is the fact that people do not make sense anymore!  I play an online game with a chat and I'm often confused when reading other people's messages!  I cannot understand them!  It takes me minutes to process that butchered sentence.  They aren't making themselves look good.  I might be overreacting but honestly... I'm on the verge of becoming insane.  We cannot continue with this.  Is this how we present the English language?  With sentences that have no structure?  Come on we are better than that.  Now I'm not trying to be an old fart :P.  I really don't care about periods or commas... yet I still use them.  I don't care about that, all I care about is if the sentence actually makes sense.  I notice these types of things outside of the digital world.  In reality I see a lot of children struggling with these things.  We need to be more aware of this, this is a serious issue we need to fix.  That's my little rant!  Think smart!
