Cheat

Is it a bad sign if you go to your boyfriends house, he logs on to Facebook, and you see that he has two chats saved. You know, when you talk to a person and dont X out of the chat so you can always see when they sign on and chat them. Well, the two chats are me, the girlfriend, and Madi (a girl he used to like and he didnt find out she liked him till after he started dating me). I mean, maybe they talked once and he just forgot to X out of their chat. or maybe he cant wait till she signs on so they can chat the night away together in a mutual love. *sigh* teenage stress.....

Parents, Never Say This To Your Child!

Theres yelling and arguing left and right.People say things they dont mean. We've all been there. But when you stop and actually look back, you realize what a bitch you were! People blame. Its what they do. It sparks so many problems globally because people need to blame SOMEONE. This is especially the case with students and parents.

Grades actually do matter for the students that give a fuck. Parents need to learn a phrase that they should never do hard under particular circumstances. "Well, your doing well, but u could do better." As kids, we strive to do well. We stay up late and miss meals sometimes to finish assignments. And if all of that effort results in a B, thats flipping fantastic. Above Average and good to go. As a parent, you should recognize the amount of work that your child does and base your pride on that, not statistics. This relates to the global problem because of this point:

If a child goes from an 85% to an 84%, no one cares. No one will ever bring up the drop in 1%. However, If you go from a 90% to an 89%, all hell breaks loose and students are instantly ridiculed for going from a B to a C. Its just 1%, same as the first example, right? Labels, labels....

Religion in a Supermarket

So I am a baptized Catholic. But I think my parents only baptized me that way so I could get a hefty discount at private school. But thats just my theory. But I don't really feel like I am Catholic. What makes the Pope so special? Anyone can read the Bible and study it. Who says he is allowed to speak for God? Its not my cup of tea. If your Catholic, you have to be anti abortion and anti this and that. Catholics looove the word community. Yes, a community of people who think the same. They have too many rules that they make up themselves. They are so restricting. Isnt the point to love everyone without judgement? Why are people so afraid to question religion? As long as you love God, yes?! So I guess Im Christian at heart but... I've been thinking


You never hear people say "Oh I'm Christian with a twist of Buddhist." You are only one religion. With Catholics, once your baptized, thats it. No siree, you cant switch religion. You are what you are and you cant be re baptized. Catholics, Christians, Hindus, etc. They all have their own beliefs. But maybe I believe half what Christians preach and half of what Muslims believe? Maybe I disagree with some things Catholics believe. Why do I have to change my views? Why can't religion be like a supermarket where you can chose what you like. "Don't change who you are because of someone else" Its a saying we've been taught since we were babies. But since when does religion not count in this saying? Who I am isnt afraid to not believe what the rest of the religion is saying. Why pick one when so much more is offered? Its not like its greedy. *Sigh* Maybe I question religion too much for one little teen...

Moon Riverrrrrrrr I Dont Know the Rest....

Did you all know that the moon is 15% brighter tonight??? and 30% bigger. Its fascinating really. It wont come again for 19 years or something so naturally, I checked it out. Its sooo cool! I saw my shadow. I don't know if you can normally see your shadow because of the moon. Or maybe it was the lights from my backyard? Its those little every day things where you don't notice them until theyre gone.


A news report: "There will be a Super Moon tonight! The moon, its always there. No one owns it. Just beautiful." Paraphrased, of course 8). But that got me thinking. The moon isnt free. People do own it. Theres talk about the Soviets (or Russians I guess theyre called nowadays... Excuse me, I've been doing IB American History homework all day...) testing nuclear business and hiding it behind the moon. Theres a space race. Soviets claimed the title of the 1st to go to space when they launched Sputnik. Americans won the race to the moon. Theres controversy that the tapes of Lance Armstrong and Buzz arent even real. People are always trying to claim the moon. Theres even talk of living there. The moon isnt untouched. They say the moon is the last thing that is unclaimed and that isnt even true. What do we have that isnt claimed or touched? Are there any material things? Or is everything touched, claimed, fought over, etc?
