Random Good Stuff
Random Good Stuff is actually a websit I stumbled on that has a lot of random cool stuff. I found it when i googled THE GREATEST THING EVER!!!!!!! The bubble-wrap calendar. You pop one thing every day. Yes, I also agree that it will be very hard to only pop one awesome bubble a day. But, if you buy it now you can pop a whole month. That is 30 DAYS!!!! Or more. I was just rounding. Anyway this website has a list of awesome random things. Hence the name. Of course there are also things where you scratch your head and go "really? seriously?" Like a turkey hat. Honestly. Picture a turkey on your head. That is exactly what it is. As you could have guessed none of this stuff is actually needed. Well, technically, it wont ever be needed. But that doesnt stop anybody from wanting it. Like a vacuum shaped like a mosquito . It looks awesome. Or birthday candels that last for almost an hour. I dont know who lets them burn for an hour, but i would if i had those candels. And on a plus side they look like legos. This list can go on and on and on and on about all the awesome stuff in the world. The point of this was just to let my one follower know there is a BUBBLE-WRAP CALENDAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

High School
No, this is not a rant. I am 16, and I do have a lot of things to complain about my school. But this is not the blog for that. What this blog is about is the point of high school. Hold on, I promise that I am not complaining. This all started yesterday while sitting in first block. That is TOK. My teacher brought up the question and even gave us a print out of a blog post someone else wrote. It was from teachersatrisk. It stated that past grades 9 & 10, that there really is no point. That past those grades students are sitting there in required classes that they don't need and probably never use. That is exactly the point!!!!! Almost everyday me and my friends will be sitting there saying, "why do i need this? I will never use this once I graduate!!!" I can recall on more than one occasion me saying that once i am out if high school I will probably just forget most of this stuff. Like when i was sitting in math, and I ask my teacher after class, "when will I ever need to know this?" Thats when he pulled out his phone and said, "To make stuff like this." Me being a smart ass replyed with "but I think I am growing up to be in psychology." Yeah, that shut everyone up right there. I do understand that school is necessary, but some of the stuff they're teaching is not. Another thing is also a point I have made before. That saying that goes high school prepares you for the real world. WTF!!!!!!!!!! What the hell am I in now? Pretending land of magical stuff? And the whole preparing crap. Daycare prepares me for elementry. Elementry prepares me for middle. Middle prepares me for high. High prepares me for college. College prepares me for work. Work prepares me to retire. Retirement prepares me to die. So my whole life is preparing me to go away.......... Then why do I want to spend it in high school, working hard to pass, just so I can never see it again. Pretty POINTLESS you ask me.

Teachers
No this is not an ode to teachers, this is a rant. This is me making it clear of the things the teachers do that makes students think WTF!?!?!?! The first thing is one that I encountered today that started this whole thing. First of all this is HIGH SCHOOL, we got the whole multi-tasking thing down to an art. This meaning that we can get our work done AND talk at the exact same time. Amazing, I know. The amazing thing is that while we are talking, we are also working. OoOoOoOoOo!!! We are not stupid. Talking and doing work. People do it all the time. Teachers do it, as they are grading or doing other teacher stuff. So why do they think that us students can't? Plus why do they think they are in charge of us? They're really not. We listen out of courtesy. If we really did not want to do it we wouldn't. Exactly why you have those kids that the teachers don't like!!! When these kids do stuff like that the teachers think they are on drugs. Like today my friend had an avalanche shirt on under her collared shirt. When she was asked to change and didn't, they gave her a drug evaluation. What the hell?????? It's like "change your shirt. No. Than you must be on drugs!!!" And one more thing, they might say that not going to school will give you bad grades, but that's a LIE!!! I hardly went to school last term and i got better grades than the kids that went everyday. Except those teachers who suck at grading. And every teacher always makes at least one mistake every time.
