Hi Everyone!

So if you didn’t look at the dates of the posts, this is my first post in…… years, lol.  This was a school assignment for one of my school’s :) it was lots of fun and very educational (weird, huh? who knew these two could go together :O) Soon, I will have a new edublogs blog. If you want to check it out will post link ASAP.  Want to thank my teacher’s and classmates for helping me with the experience of blogging. This next time around I’m sure it will be much more fun since I know the ropes now! I also have another blog, less school assignment oriented: https://usagiwaffles.wordpress.com/. It’s in reconstruction since I also haven’t touched it in….. years. Please check it out!! To all who come here purposely or accidently I encourage you to look around, leave comments, and just get a gist of blogging. Who knows?? Maybe one day this miight be you on one of these blogging websites typing away.

Yours,

Usagi Waffles

I can’t believe you didn’t have the balls. You didn’t tell me? Why??? Why didn’t you tell me? I thought we were closer than that. You tell everyone on Facebook but me? The person you loved cared for for so long? The person you should’ve told first??? You are getting married and you didn’t tell me??? Or any of us??? You told the world and people who would forget you and dump you on the streets. Why didn’t you tell me??? I thought we we’re closer than that. So so much closer. The sense of betrayal is undescribable.

I’m not saying I won’t do the project. I’ll do it. I’m doing it mostly because of my grade and, so I’m told , I’m supposed to gain significant skills that will prove helpful in life. I personally hate when teachers say that. I just want them to prove it up or maybe I’m just ranting. :) . I understand their is criteria and I’m not trying to argue or yell at you dearest teacher of mine but you have to let me just speak my opinion in a nonviolent, humane way aka blog it. I have to log out now but I shall continue this rant later.

So today is the 20th of May . . . and I’m working on my project . . .

State Rights is what we are talking about. Funny we are talking about the Civil War in Social Studies and the cause of the civil war was state’s rights. Well it seems the states and the country are at a problem. It talked lots about bills and laws. Fire arms. I wonder how the government feels about the states reacting like this? When does the authority of the government cut in? Well the Tenth Amendment. I was wondering is marijuna illegal or not?

Well 3D movies are becoming more popular and prices are rising. Mostly because of buisness men wanting to make $$$ on the consumers money, that’s a possible reason prices sre rising. In my opinion why should we care if the prices are rising? Just wait a few months or so for it to come out for 1 dollar on redbox. I don’t understand adult common sense sometimes. I liked how they talked about Avatar and Alice which we’re both good movies. They talked about Clash of the Titans which I think is going to be a not very interesting movie. The trailer didn’t look appealing to me but hey that’s coming from a thirteen year old girl. A teenage girl. That says a lot :). I don’t understand much why they would rise prices when people are just recovering from the economy or STILL suffering. Personally I think movies and movie theatres are really expensive to begin with. It’s similar, in my head to the carry on thing. How they are charging for one to carry on a carry on. Why would they do that? Wouldn’t people just avoid that airlines then and go for another one? See what I’m saying.

      When I watched Alice in Wonderland in 3D it wan’t very special, I mean I barelty noticed after a while it was in 3D.  So technically I dont understand adults. You are all so weird :). I never want to grow up :D

So in the article above it talks about volcanoes! Lots and lots of volcanoes. It talks about the fear in Europe over if this volcano in Iceland explodes which is understandable. At least for me because my father was there when Mt. Pinatubo in the Philippines erupted in 1991 which I find pretty cool and terrifying. If the explosion does happen, it would be quite tragic in my opinion. There would be ash, and fire. Lots of people would die, painfully. Now some scientist find it good that Mt. Really long unpronouncable name will errupt mainly for two reasons.

1. it will bring ash that will help “slow down” global warming and possibly lower the earth’s temperature as mt. pinatubo did

2. the ash will fertilize the land.  

other than these 2 reasons the idea of a volcano eruppting seems quite unhappy to me. Livestock and people could grow sick. It would bring acid rain and kill a lot of plants I bet. It will contaminate the water supply with acid and ash. This wouldnt be good. But looking at the bright side of this maybe it will bring us good. Their is always hope.

Large chunks of plastic covering the oceans! Imagine it loads of junk, trash floating on the top of the waters of the Atlantic, the Pacific. That is exactlt what’s happening out there!

In the article above it talks about the HUMAN PLASTIC FOOTPRINT not the Carbon Footprint

Imagine the Atlantic Ocean. Full of life, color, water. Supposedly pure and beautiful. Now imagine please if you will its waters tainted by trash. Heaps and heaps of plastic bottles and cartons. This is what floating among the fish. And guess who eat the fish other than sharks and dolphins? YOU and YOUR KIDS and YOUR FRIENDS and YOUR FAMILY. Yup, tiny pieces of plastic being put into the bodies of fish into the bodies of you among with all those chemicals ommited from the plastics. ANd all the chemicals that were IN the plastic containers spilled into the oceans, the beaches where you love to play and frolic. Yup, such a lovely image. :)

Personally I don’t know what the two are. and right now I don’t care but  if I don’t want to fail (any farther) I’m gonna search it up and tell you. Thank God for Wikipedia. <3

Idealism is the philosophical theory which maintains that the ultimate nature of reality is based on the mind or ideas. ( disclaimer: I don’t own anything. Seriously. Maybe just this blog. But that’s probably it)

realism: interest in or concern for the actual or real, as distinguished from the abstract, speculative, etc.
Well  . . . uh, well idealism is based on the mind? and realism is concern for the real. k. . .. . .
duty to family vs. duty to state
Well I know personally I would choose my family over my duty to state. During  the Civil War, the setting of Killer Angels it was state over family. The Civil War split families apart. Did they base it by what was real? I don’t believe so for how could they know what is real? In my opion it was all based on opinion and ideas.
So they’re duty to state was also based on their ideas and opinions? idealism?
Wait. idealism is wanting everything to be perfect? and realism is just dealing with life the way it is?

Wow. That article was. Sad. And Serious.

Why? Why do inncoent people have to suffer? It is only land! If you all want it so much make a compromise and share!!!! Children are being bombed and hurt! Thank the Lord their still innocent and don’t have to understand the harshness and bitterness of a long fought feus over LAND. Land. That’s sad. So Jerusalem’s a holy place? Does it matter? Well sorta but why do we have to fighT? WHY DOES IT MATTER THAT I’M FROM HERE AND YOUR FROM THERE????? I’m me and you’re you. We’re both human beings made by God. We we’re all created equal for God loves us each wholely. I agree. Does it matter if he’s and Arab and she’s a Jew? No! The biggest difference would be skin color, gender, and religion! They are brought together because they’re children are not enjoying the natural right to be whole and healthy, to have fun with everyone and anyone of any race or religion. I could never imagine living in a place where someone is trying to bomb me. Look at war.  A useless cause with a bloody, disatrous effect with us being left to pick up the peices. Pain. Why do we only have to see in the red and green of anger, jealousy, and greed?

Q. Why do groups of people fight each other?What do they fight over? Does hatred of people’s religion or ethnicity drive all conflict?

A. We humans, in our nature, divide ourselve and look upon each others “flaws” and differences. It is human nature to go against one another. Being different in religion or ethnicity, both which tell very much about who we are, helps drive conflict being such easy things to pick on.  People also fight with one another because of the way they were taught in their youth. If they were brought up to hate and degrade certain people they would certaintly do that when their older. They would also pass it on to their kids and those kids’s kids.

 

Q. Are you surprised that the families described in the article are not consumed with hatred for the people who injured their children? How would you react if you had a similar experience?

A. Actually, surprisingly myself, I am not surprised that the are not consumed with hatred. First of all these are people of religion. They must think their God wouldn’t have wanted them to hate, since hate is sin. Also they are probably thinking more about their children. Why waste your time hating the people who hurt your kids when youc ould be taking care of them instead?They  are probably angry though.  If  were to experience somethig similar to this I probably would be very angry and upset.

Music is down there. Just scroll DOWN and press play. :)
