Blue is a color. Blue
is sad. Blue is cool. These are all
things I think when I see the color blue.
Colors tend to always have meaning to us. Blue I think have more meaning then any other
color. When someone looks sad they are
said to be blue. It is such a popular
saying that it even became a musical genre.
The blues is a genre that have people sing the problems with life. And all that came from just a color. Another thing blue represents is cold. When people see blue they think it is cooler
than a lighter color. This is misleading
though one of the hottest stars are blue stars.
So just because it is blue doesn’t automatically make it cooler. We only think that way because sinks with
blue handles have cold water rather than hot.
Just like showers you usually don’t do the blue side if you want a hot
shower. Blue was also one of the first
clothing color. Indigo was the first
colored shirt.
Feafr os th phobia of
something I don’t fear a lot oof stuff I
am still afraid of big spiders. They are
to big to step on and they look disgusting.
If I can not crush them easily with my shoe than it grosses me out. I aso don’t like to hear the crunch when you
step on them. I also fear other
stuff. Fear is something every one
has. Rational or not is something that
is very hard to get over.. I used to be
afraid of heights. When I got on ladders
I was afraid thy would fall.. which made me shake and make it more likely to
fall. I also used to be afraid of being
grounded. I tried to be a good kid for
that reason. I didn’t want to lose
privalidge to watch tv or play my games. There are many popular things that are
feared like snakes, death, water, rodents, bugs, animals, and many other
things. I don’t fear most of them but I
can still be startled by them. Which
being startled isn’t the same as being afraid.
Just like if someone catches you by surprise by sneaking up on you. You are not really afraid of them just
startled. There are many things that are
not feared usually like breathing, sleep because everyone loves sleep, eating
food, drinking water, watching a good movie, listening to your favorite albulm,
talking to a friend, petting you pets, going to the zoo, sitting in good chair,
yawning, hitting the snooze button, going out to eat, hanging out with friends, wanting to learn
something new, the color yellow, the color red, the color green, the color
blue, the color grey, the color gold, the color turquoise, the color purple,
the color indigo
Album
I love going into my car and listening to cd and just
driving for fun. I have a lot of cds
that I like to listen to when I do just go on a car ride. Ill listen to my Alt J cd the most. I love the songs fitzplesure, tessalate,
breeze blocks, matilda, something good, and the rest of the album. They also have recently came out with a new
album but I have not bought it yet.
Since I usually wait til they cost less then $5 on amazon. I also love listening to my The Neighborhood album. They have great songs on it like Alleyways,
sweater whether, and afraid. I also like
all of my Modest Mouse CDs. Songs like
The View, float on, dashboard, parting of the sensory, satin in a coffin, march
into the sea are great to sing along to.
There are many other CDs I have like Interpol, Postal Service, Death Cab
for Cutie, The Strokes, The Kooks, Wolf Gang, and Matchbox Twenty. I don’t like how a lot of artists are no
longer doing albums but are instead doing singles to make more money.
Alt J
My favorite band is probably Alt-j. I love Electronic Indie and they are one of
the most unique sounds in the genre.
Their band name is Alt j because If you hit those buttons on a mac computer
it makes a triangle. Which is funny
because in one their songs, tessalate, one of the lyrics in the choros says
thriangles are my favorite shape three points where two lines meet. They have many songs that I love like
dissolve me, fitzplesure, tessalate,
breeze blocks, matilda, something good, and many other songs. Alt-j has been said to be one of the hardest
working bands because of how much time they put into their songs and how much
they go on tour while being such a new band.
They just recently came out with a
new album with songs like left hand free and others that ive only heard
a few times through. I don’t thing it is
as good as their first album but I still like listening to it. I hope they come to an area around
springfield so I can see them live with a few friends of mine. My favorite song is probably fitzplesure but
I can listen to almost all their songs, including just instrumental segments in
their songs. The lead singers voice is
unique I can’’t think of one artist that sounds similar. Breeze Blocks is ther most popular song. It
has a very cool music video where it shows a murder In reverse.
Get off Netflix
I picked get off Netflix as my slogan because it is a daily
thought in my head. I enjoy watching a
show or two or sometimes twelve when I have something I need to do. I procrastinate on Netflix a lot. Just yesterday I needed to continue studying
for my chemistry class and anatomy class but instead decided to get caught up
on walking dead and new girl. There are
many shows I have been procrastinating to including new girl, walking dead,
psych, how I met your mother, scrubs, and a few others. There is many times I am disgusted with
myself for being on Netflix for to long.
The first thing I do when I get home from school is watch Netflix and
right before I go to bed ill usually watch a show. And that isn’t that bad but I sometimes will
also watch Netflix in between the two as well.
Since I Thursday is my only day off from school and work I will binge
watch Netflix. I will watch anywhere
from 2 to 8 hours that day usually. Get
off Netflix has definantly been something ive said a lot more recently. My anatomy class is a lot harder than my
other classes so I need to study more than usual. So I will a lot of times have to tell myself
to get off the website. Including while
only half way through the show. There
are many times I have stopped watching the show I was watching even though I
just began it.
If I was a color I would be blue. I am wearing blue shoes and shirt. Blue is a also my favorite color. Listen up heres a story about a guy that
lives in a blue world. And all day and all night everything he sees is just
blue inside and outside. Blue his house with blue little window and a blue
corvette and everything is blue for him. And himself and everybody around
because hes got nobody to listen. I am
blue daba di da ba die da ba die da ba die da ba di da ba die. Blue is also a name of a very catchy song
that I don’t know the lyrics to very well.
I feel like blue because I am tired and I think of blue when tired. You are also what you eat. And I had cool ranch doritos today for
lunch. That bag is blue not necessarily
the chips. Even though they do have a
blue powder on them. I am not angry so
im not red. Im not embarrassed so im not
pink. Im not scared so not grey or
black. I am not sick so not green. It is also cold outside. I think of cold whether as blue. I also am using a blue pencil today. So most of the stuff I am using is blue.
Happyiness is just being happy. For me I have many ways to be happy. If I am watching Netflix I am happy. Another way I get happy is seeing and hanging
with my friends. Another way I get happy
is listening to favorite songs. Another
way I get happy is doing good on a test I studied hard for. Another thing that makes me happy is watching
the Vikings win their games. Also game
of thrones season 5 premier will make me happy.
When the draft starts ill be happy.
When I finished moving into my apartment last Friday I was happy. Happiness is one of the best feelings in the
world. Just the feeling having things
your way is great. Knowing that nothing
could make you feel bad. The feeling of
being on top of world. Completling goals
and doing hobbies is stuff people do just to feel the high of being happy.
I connect by wanting to go out and help people just like
lieutenant Greitens
That someone can see people at their worst and still want to
do good. He saw what humanity can do
with his platoon dying in an explosion but still feels the need to use the money
he deserved to help others in need
To show that anyone can be a hero if they do what is good
for the others. If you see people in
need and you help them out through there tough times you are more likely to be
a hero to them.
To all people who need to make a better impact on the world
and help more people out through tough times
I believe that the
Vikings are the best team to root for
I believe Game of
Thrones is the greatest tv show ever
I believe Dexter is a good show
I believe Minnesota is better than Missouri
I believe Norway is awesome place
I believe aurora boriealis is a cool sight to see
I believe polar bears are awesome
I believe
anthropology is an interesting subject
I believe modest mouse is good band
I believe alt j is good band
I believe the kooks are a good band
I believe game of thrones is the best tv show ever. There are many reasons why the show is
amazing. One reason is that the show is
very entertaining. There are so many
plot twists that you do not see coming.
One second they could be eating a meal and the next second you might see
a massacre. You never will know with the
show. Another reason I love the show is
that nothing is guaranteed. No one is
safe in this show. In most shows you
know that the main character will be ok, because you can’t kill him off. But in Game of Thrones no one is safe and
eventually everyone will die. They pick
a character that they make you fall in love with and than will kill them off
like it was nothing. And most of the
deaths are a surprise to. One minute
someone is winning a fight and then the next you watch his skull get crushed by
someones elses hands that you thought was dead.
There are no guarentees so anything could happen on the next episode or
even in the last five minutes of the show.
Another reason I love it is because it doesn’t try to stay clean to watch. Most tv shows have limitations on how violent
it can get because of restrictions. But
game of thrones you will see heads cut off, skulls getting crushed, people
being murdered right in front of you.
Another reason I love it is because there are many people you pick as
your favorite character. Most shows give
you one main character and it usually the favorite.
If I woke up today and relized I was invisible I would have
so much fun with it. I think most of the
day I would just do pranks. I would go
into my work and steal some of the bussers towels or the servers straws from
their pockets. They would be so
confused and creeped out. I would also
go play with the automatic doors at Walmart.
People will be confused when they open themselves without anyone close
to them. Especially if I do it for a
while. I don’t think I would do anything
illegal like theft, because I don’t know how long I would be invisible
for. If I was about to steal a kit kat
and became visible again I would get arrested.
And I would rather not take the risk. I think after that I would
probably go home and watch Netflix. If I
woke up the next morning I would probably go to the hospital to make sure I’m
ok. I don’t want to be dying or have some
dangerous disease. Being invisible is
cool but I would rather be alive.
One story I have that is interesting to tell is my trip to
waffle house with a few of my friends.
One day 3 friends from work and I went to Waffle Houose after work. It was one place we wemt to a f ew other
times. The food is good and all of us
like breakfadst food so it was a good place to choose. When we got there we sat in a booth at the
back near the kitchen area. We had a
waitress that also went to otc that we talked to a lot. My friends and I talked about a lot of stuff
and joked around a lot. We eventually
got to talk about foods we don’t like. I
mentioned I don’t like potatoes and nobody at the table felt that way. Eventually the server heard and started to
joke around because I had ordered hashbrowns.
I would say that I liked some potatoe products just not plain potatoes
or French fries. All of my friends and
the server kept mentioning other potato products to see if I liked them. After they did that for a while me and the
waitress started to debate whether potatos were good or not. One of my reasons that potatos were bad was
that the potato famine is a event that killed a lot of irish citizens a while
back and that no other food is responsible for that large of a famine. She kept saying that wasn’t the potatos fault
that they wernt there. I told here that
it was the potatoes job to be there and they should be held responsible for
their actions. And how if I didn’t show
up to my job I’m at fault and should be punished just like the potatoes
should. It was a fun debate that went on
for probably 20 minutes. We talked about
it until we left.
Famine
Famine is a event that happens when food suppoles run out a
nd people die form it. There are many
famines in history including the irish potato famine and the famine in chine
during ww2. The irsish famine happene
due to potato running out and that was the rish main supply of food. Lit caused mass emigration in irelland and a
lot moved to the usa. Many poor
peaasants died to the famine in in Ireland but more died due to the famine in
china. In chia the ruler decided that he
wanted to become a major steel power so he took many farmers and made them into
mineers. This become a problem when
their wasn;t enough food being produced so many people ended up dying of
starvation. The famine is one of the
largest death causers in history. I
tgink more people died from that than people wh die dbecause of Adolf
Hitler. Millions died and many more were
undernourished. Making steel was
originally done to improve the economy but ended up being one o the worst plans
in history. Theree are many other
famines in jistory including ones cauused by sieges. In midevil timesaggresors would surround a
city so that nothing could go in or out of the town. Lthis would cause a lot of poeole did of
hunger. It turned out to a good strategy
as none of your men would did but many of theres would did after a long period
of time. Other famines have happened in
history that aren’t as popular but still caused many deaths.
I see stress as a good thing. I mainly do because I don’t want to die and I
found out I will die if I think stress is bad.
I also see it as good because I see stress as a way to know what I need
to improve on. If I am stressed over a
test, than I know to make me feel better I need to go study. When I’m not stressed over a test I feel like
I can go without studying a lot for it.
Those tend to be the tests I do the worst on. The ones I am worried about are almost always
the ones I strive on. I don’t know if
stress just helps with my drive or what, but I do know that it is a key factor
in my life. Stress is an indicator of
whether you are living your life with a challenge. I think life needs to have a little challenge
in it every once in a while for you to feel alive. You need to feel the need to get better at
something. Stressed out that you need to
get a new hobby. Sometimes you can use
stress to realize what you want.
I am a server at a Mexican restaurant. One of my conflicts would be stupid people. I was always had this view that all people
are good but just have bad incentives.
But after serving for a little I have a view that some people should
jump off a cliff. I have so many stories
that I love to talk with fellow servers.
A lot of customers know that their servers gossip a lot, but if you
weren’t so dumb than we wouldn’t need to.
One way that people suck is that you did you job and the table refuses
to tip you. I don’t think they realize
that me and other people need this money to buy food and keep them selves
alive. There are many that ask a lot
from you and leave nothing.
I am a customer at a table.
I know that I am the one that is supposed to leave a tip, but that
shouldn’t be my job. I already paid for
my food, why should I have to pay for my service also. I mean I did tell him he did a good job, but
I doesn’t mean I should tip like 15%.
Ill give a dollar or two. Im
pretty sure I was an easy table. I only
need a few refills. Plus maybe everyone
else here will tip him well. Plus I had
to wait for a minute for my check, which will cost him some more out of his
tip. Also I need to pay for my bills
to. I know he does to, but I need to
make myself my first priority.
Im a cook at the Mexican restaurant. I think that he should of left a tip but the
server usually make more than me. I did
just as much work as he did but he usually walks out with more money than
me. I mean he did have that bad tip but
he does occasionally get a great tip right after to make up for it.

Harrison Smith
My
football team are the Minnesota Vikings.
Ive been a die hard fan since I started to watch the football. It has most of my favorite players. Are roster include studs like are quarterback
Teddy Throwesevelt, probably are running back Peterson, Reciever Johnson,
lineman like Fusco and Sully. Are
defense is even better though. We have
on are line Griffen and Sheffield both who are respected in their position,
Barr a stud rookie, and are secondary has both Rhodes and arguably the best
safety Harrison Smith. With the draft
approaching we do have some holes that
are open. Are two biggest needs are
inside line backer which will be hard to fill in a 4-3 defense and left guard
which should be easier to fill if Collins or Scherff are still up on board. But we also have a few places that we should
fix like running back if we lose Peterson, receiver since we only have Wallace
for short period of time, left tackle for if kalil can’t step his game up,
maybe a defensive end to replace aging Robinson, a outside linebacker for aging
Greenway if we don’t think Hodges is starting material, and an safety and
corner.
Game of thrones is by far my favorite tv show. It is currently on air on HBO. They went places no one else has ever
gone. They are the only tv show that I
know where nothing is guanteed. It is
the only show where they can kill off a main character that everyone
loves. Walking dead kills off a lot of
people but there are two that are almost unkillable. But the game of thrones is to unpredictable,
one second it could be a happy scene, but in a minute it could be one of
your favorite characters last
scenes. It is awful to watch someone
that you fall in love with on the show die, but I want to see realism in the
show, and this definantly is realistic.
Another thing I love is that the author did so many different scenes on
stuff that has happened in real life.
Wildfire is something they used in an episode but the idea they got it
from is from somethings the greeks used.
They show is great there are many people who think they are the true
kings or queen of the seven kings and go to war with other kings. There are more than one choice for who you
want to follow. Most shows are very
biased on who to follow they only make the main character look good. While in game of thrones you have many people
to choose as the best ruler of the seven kingdoms.
What if I was taller
What if I was yellow
What if people ate people regulary
Whast if people all became vegans
What if robots take over the world
What if aliens came to invade
What if we had free nacho Wednesday
What if we had to sleep hanging upside down
What if super heros were real
What if super villans were real
What if people wore speaker around there head instead of
headphones
What if google took over the world
What If the Vikings won the superbowl on Sunday
What if they made a 4 team football game
What if the Vikings Adrian Peterson didn’t get suspender
What if mcdonalds all closed down forever
What if Adrian Peterson never got suspended is something I
think about often. How much better would
we have been this year. I could see us
adding a win or two more at least making us playoff eligible. But would it hurt in the long run. Because Peterson got hurt Bridgewater and
Mckinnon got more play time and are helping them become more experienced. Bridgewater looks like a great quality
rookie QB but would he have the same stats if Peterson played. They could be better because the defense is
more worried about Peterson and are more relaxed on Bridgewater resulting in
more time for Bridgewater to throw. But
it could also be worse numbers because Bridgewater didn’t get as much quality
play time because Peterson was taking away his possesions. Also we wouldn’t be able to see Mckinnon
potential of being a quality starter. We
wouldn’t know the future of the Vikings run game will still be good after Peterson
leaves or retires. The teams morale
would definantly not have been so low if Peterson left. Peterson is the best player on are team
without question so when he got suspended he took a large portion with team
with him. Losing the best player on the
team is a huge morale hitter. With
Peterson playing we would have probably been a playoff contender. We lost four game by three points or less
this season.
What if people wore speakers around their head instead of
headphones. I think it is one of the
worst things that could happen. Most
people I thing would be nice enough to keep it at a low volume where you
couldn’t hear it from the other side of a room.
But you know someone is going to have their speakers blarring to look
cool. Now if you go somewhere with a lot
of people, there will be a lot of people with blarring speakers. Imagine having country, rap, dubstep, hiphop,
indie, metal, all being combined into one room at full volume. And you know some company will think it’s a
good idea to make a jacket that have built in subwoofers that make the floor
shake.
If we no longer had internet I think everything will be real
bad. The majority of people jobs require
internet and won’t be able to work because of their jobs are no longer
around. It would be terrible and
millions would die due to not being able to get recourses they need. The internet helps a lot with keeping
everything organized. Without the
organization from the internet it would be chaotic and people die. Internet is so heavily relied in America that
most people will not know what to do with themselves. I think it would be terrible for me as
well. I don’t have tv so how else am I
going to watch my shows. Game of thrones
starts up again in April so Ill need internet to watch that. I feel like many stores will be able to raise
there prices since less completion with online stores and people won’t be able
to review products as easily. So the
companies could lie about what the best products are.
