Book.

So, I have been thinking that absolutely no one reads my blog. I am going to change that. I am going to start writing a book and posting it on here. I don't know what it will be about yet, but I'm sure it will be great. If anyone does read this blog, please keep going. This is going to get interesting.

Wow.

So...I have noticed something. I save everything, absolutely everything, until the last possible day. For example, my 700 word blog still needs doing. Also, I still need to get everything for spirit week, which starts tomorrow... Another little thing, it's Sunday night and I still have to do my laundry. I really need to get better at this.

Anyway, I've been thinking. I had said that this blog was going to be strictly about books and stuff like that. Well, I think that this turned into a blog about whatever pops into my head at any given moment. As long as it is working for me, I will keep doing it like this...

Okay, now onto the blogging about important stuff. I watched all of the "you suck at Photoshop" things to write a lot about them. Now that I'm here, I have no idea what to write about them. All I shall say is YOU MUST WATCH ALL 20!!! They are so funny! When I watched them, I knew that the voice sounded familiar(I thought it sounded like Dane Cook, the comedian), and at the end, when it showed the speaker, Donnie Hoyle, it was who I had thought.

Well, that was all the feedback I could give without ruining it for everyone who hasn't seen it. I had already given away who was speaking, though. Sorry. Everyone should watch it anyway!!! Hooray!

Sorry.

So, I never finished the writing expectation for last week. Sorry. Instead of coming up with a lame excuse that no one will believe anyway, I will just write what I must. That Did You Know 2.0 video was extremely interesting. And true! In 5 years, some think that the world will be over. You know, that whole "the Mayans predicted that 12/12/2012 the world will end" spiel. I believe that that is a total crock of [insert swear word(s) of choice here]. The reason why the Mayans stopped at that date is because they were being attacked by invaders and they decided to stop the calendar on a nice, even day. THE WORLD WILL NOT END ON THAT DAY! Maybe. The world could end on any given day, but if it does end on that day, it will just be a lucky guess from the Mayans. Anyway, back on topic. I think that in 5/10 years, the world will be exactly the same. When people think of the future, they see flying cars and stuff like that. Bull. I think that one of the only changes will be the fact that there will be so much smog that we won't be able to see 2 feet in front of us. I believe that if we bring electric cars back(see WGI) we will start saving this planet one step at a time. And I just really want to drive on of those miniscule cars extremely fast. Something that excites me about the future is where I will be. The future holds many mysteries and I hope to make a big impact on the world in mine. I want to do something huge. Like discover an ancient civilization or something like that. What scares we is the fact that global warming is real and that, at the rate we are going, the world is going to crumble. I want to get agroup together to do something about it! Well, that's it. Later.

Why is the Queen giving away 'Sir's?

I don't get it. The Queen is just granting people knighthood left and right. It's getting quite annoying actually. Even actors and such are getting knighted. Why can't she save it for someone who really deserves it. Like, if the world was about to be blown up, somebody saves it, and the Queen knights them, they'll be up there with Sir Sean Connery and Sir Elton John. I bring this up because I just watched a video on TED that was Sir Ken Robinson speaking about human creativity and how kids in schools get their creativity educated out of them. It was extremely interesting. It also made me laugh and I didn't think anyof these TED talks could. The ones that I have seen so far have been boring(no offense...).

Anyway, time to answer the questions. 1. I agree with Mr. Robinson on the fact that as one gets older, one starts losing creativity. We are taking so many more math classes than art and music classes. (I definitely prefer the arts!) 2. I think that schools could foster imagination by doing a few things. First, make art classes more of a requirement. At my school, we only need one art class to graduate. We should have more. Second, I believe that in english and art classes, we should have more opportunities to be creative. Maybe in an english class, we could be able to write creative fiction instead of tons of different research papers.

YAY!!!

So, I know that I said I would write about another favorite book series of mine, The Goddess series, but I am going to break away from books for this one blog. I am doing this because I am so freaking excited!!!! My favorite movie is Boondock Saints. Well ,when it came out in 1999, it was banned from the theaters and stuff because of it's...well...I don't know what but anyway, now, after 10 years, the sequel is coming out! Ohhh, I am so excited for this! It's called Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day. The same people are in it. The only thing that is bugging me is that someone who died in the last one is back. I don't know how they are going to do that. Maybe flashbacks or something like that? I'm just really excited for it anyway. See how excited I am...I've already used the word 'excited' 4 times. That definitely says something.

Since I've decided to take a break from books for this blog so I think I will veer off into music. Well, as you may have noticed, my favorite band is Muse. They are an incredible British band that is just amazing. I'm not completely addicted to them though. Not like one of my friends and her favorite band. She is so completely addicted to them. For her birthday, I told her that I am making her a plushie of the lead singer. She screamed and jumped up and down(well, she would have if I hadn't told her in the middle of class). Since my birthday is one day after hers, she told me that she would make me something that has to do with Muse. I think it was a little stage with all 3 band members and stuff. I'm very excited for it but I think she might forget or something. Anyway, back to how addicted she is. She found a way last year to bring every conversation around to Tokio Hotel(the band). It was actually quite ingenious.

Well, I think that this is it for my blog of today. Talk to you later.

Blah.

I didn't know that I had to write a reflection. Oh well, I shall do that now. 1. have learned that Photoshop is really cool and a whole lot better than paint. I have also learned that I like blogging just a little bit... 2. I think that the internet is very useful for the spreading of information. You can write something somewhere and almost immediately, it has been sent to people. 3. If people use this technology on a large scale, I think big things could happen. Someone could probably start a war or something on here. 4. Individually, someone could get all the information they ever wanted on her and they could spread their own(maybe in a blog). 5. That was a very interesting video. I agree with him. Especially on the World of Warcraft thing. The people sitting in their basements are actually doing something rather than sitting thir butt in front of a television. The TV-watchers aren't even thinking. The WOW players are thinking up strategies and stuff all the time. Well, that's it. (Sorry I didn't write in seperate paragraphs. It didn't look right.)

Might of Olympus!

This blog will be about another favorite book series of mine, Percy Jackson and the Olympians. I just found out that they are making a movie out of this, too. I should seriously just stop reading popular books. This is so annoying. But, I must admit, the guy who is playing Apollo looks really...hot. (Sorry. Terrible pun...). The person playing Annabeth and the person playing Athena both have brown hair, though. In the books, they are blond. Apparently, Pierce Brosnan is going to be playing the centaur. That is going to look weird.
There are tons of big-name actors in this besides just Pierce Brosnan. There is also Uma Thurman(Medusa), Rosario Dawson(Persephone), and Sean Bean(Zeus). See, this is exactly what happened with Twilight. I thought that the cast was great(besides Edward) and that it could possibly be a good-ish movie but, alas, I was mistaken. Gravely mistaken(see previous rant). I do believe that Sean Bean could possibly be a good portrayer of Zeus. Maybe, maybe not. Anyway, I shall now talk about the books. Right now, I am re-reading all of series because the last book just came out. I am really excited because this will be the ultimate battle.
As I was walking through KSC the other day, I noticed a bunch of little kids playing a really cool version of capture the flag. They were all wearing orange shirts and when I stopped to see, this one kid ran past me and I saw what his shirt said. It said, "Camp Half Blood". That is from this book series. I was so ecstatic. I really want to join that little program. Like, right now! That would be so freakin' cool!!! Alright, this is my last post for the week. Next time it will be about another favorite(these are not in order, by the way) series called the Goddess, which, with my current resources, I cannot find any information about a movie being made! YES!!!
