So as most of you know, today was the royal wedding of Prince Something and Kate Middleton. I watched the very end of it when the prince kissed her twice in social studies. We then made two videos telling them "Ello! Congratulations! Go England!" in english accents of course. Her dress was okay, i really only saw the top half, but she's gorgeous anyway. So i was inspired by this event to talk about my hate of weddings.
People always say, weddings are sooo romantic. What is romantic about standing at the alter for an hour or so, not doing anything, and then makingout in front of your parents, and then having people throw rice at you? Sure, the first dance is cute, but what happens when you trip or step on their toes? And then you have to go around to everytable and say hi to everyone, even your annoying cousin Bob who doesn't shut up. Ever.
Not to mention its not much fun for the guest either. The service is boring, the kiss awkward, and the reception... Well, i personally hate dancing so that is probably part of why i hate receptions. The music is blasting, the seats are assigned, your shoes are killing you, and you have nothing to do. For hours. I'm sure many people have had good experiences at weddings, i just havent, and im not sure i will ever get over the trauma of sitting at a table, and not being able to hear yourself think, for hours on end.
I guess it's not just specifically wedding receptions that i hate, it's more parties in general. For instance: I cried, or almost cried during every bat mitzvah party last year. The two baptism parties i've ever been to were a living hell, and of course so were all the weddings i've been to. Maybe it's because i dont know anyone, or all the people are over 80 years old, but somehow i have come to hate weddings. Maybe when it's mine my mind will be changes, but i've heard weddings are the most stressful thing known to man.

Crazy People
hello,
i really don’t know what to say. The only reason I’m typing this is because I have to look busy in social studies. I already finished my story and I'm super bored. I’m listening to the song Crystal Ball by Keane. It’s actually really good. It’s probably my favorite song by them. I’m really sorry i haven’t updated in like two years or whatever but i haven’t had anything to say. My life has been pretty up in the air recently. Actually, it hasn't i just kind of wanted to use that expression. So, what happened while i was gone? Well, we had spring break, and a lot of things happened then but i know you've all heard about that, and i'm not about to tell the world about my life in complete detail, because honestly, i don't want to. I went to a dance. It sucked. Badly. Easter happened. That also sucked. Badly. Yesterday this crazy lady came to our science class to talk about her writing. All i remember from it is that she used the expression "damn straight". And that she writes childrens books. I also heard some high schoolers talking in the locker room saying she came to their assembly andd said "shit" about 20 times. And then started making all these weird accusation. I kind of wish i had been there. I love seeing teachers go all crazy. I wishh i had been in the class where are art teacher, Ms. C had gone crazy. I'm actually really happy she did go crazy though, because now we have this awesome art teacher. He is like my favorite teacher now. I decided i would write a lot just because i havent written anything in a while and you guys deserve something long. At tbs we have a lot of crazy teachers. I'm not trying to give the school bad publicity, but we have some pretty insane teachers. Most of them are in the arts feild which would probably explain a little, but still. These people are insane. I have pachelbel cannon stuck in my head right now, but not the pretty part, the annoying part. I'm sorry i'm being really random in this post but i'm writing what i'm thinking and my thoughts are ussuaslly pretty out of order. we had elections this week. I ran for president but i didnt win. The weirdest people won this yyear. I'm not saying i shouldve won nescessarily, but i think really weird people won. What else happened? Nothing really. The weather is nicer now, but you could figure that oout by walking outside. April is almost over, and i'm really excited for May. mainly because that means the school year is gonna be done REALLy soon. which i am really looking forward to. The stress is really getting to me. I dont know what else to say, and i figure this post is pretty long so i hope your happy. O and i wont gaurantee a post everyday (because face it thats not happening) but i will try to post more than once a month ok so bye.

if all ur friends jumped off a bridge would you?
the title of this entry is the one question that bothers me. a lot. when i say a lot i mean i have many reasons for not liking this, but first i must tell you a scenario. If all your friends favourite colors were blue and yours was pink but then you changed it and your parents said "if all ur friends jumped off a bridge would you?" you could give them the following arguments
I. yes i would, because i would be bungee jumping, something thats totally safe and very fun.
II. no, because changing your favourite color is not life threatening, while jumping off a bridge is (this can only be used if you dont use argument I.)
III. no, because im just doing this to better my social situation and that means i wouldnt be jmping off a bridge because i wouldve graduated from hanging with the suicidical people to hanging with the normal people, all because i changed my favorite color to blue. Therefore it is life saving because you have a higher chance of killing yourself if you hang out with the people who actually think about doing it than when you hang with the normal people.
there probably could be more arguments but im really tired an i am definetly not in the mood to think

JBIEEBS
Hello,
first off im SSOOO sorry for not posting in a week. It's been crazy lately. First we had a long weekend, then we had a two-hour delay, and now im posting. to be honest i have absoloutly no idea what to post so i guess i will talk about the Justin Beiber movie that i saw the other day. To be honest i think his story is great, and i do think he's very talented, and the fact that he's doing this as a 16 year old is pretty awesome, but it just depresses me when i see those screaming fan girls with those signs that say "the future mrs. beiber", or "i <3 JB", etc... It also depresses me when i see people walking around with justin beiber's head on their shirts, like really, do you really want to walk around with someones head on your shirt. And the fact that he's not completely weirded out by these people shocks me the most. If i was in his position i'd be like, "do me a favor and stop walking around with those shirts, it's just kinda stalker-ish and obsessive." As for the signs, he's not gonna marry a groupy. sorry ladies but he's not gonna marry you just because you know all the lyrics to his every song, and just because you go to all his concerts, he will probably think your really creepy and file a restraining order against you. Saying that, i do think he is really really talented and i do like his stuff, i just think people should stop obsessing over him.

Valnetines Day and Everything In Between
Hi
sorry this post is gonna be one with crappy grammar and spelling but im in a rush and i dont feel like cleaning it up. anyway sorrry i havent posted in a couple days i've been busy. anyway for our first item of the day: Valentine's day: a day to pointlessly give candy/flowers/chocolates to your friends and that "special someone". But to be honest i think Valentines day sucks, i didnt used to think that, but then my science teacher (one of the Mrs. B's), said she hated Valentine's Day because if someone id going to love you they should love you everyday. That started my change in views, the next thing was that in lower school, and even last year, people gave me stuff (candy, cards, etc.) but this year noone did, thirdly im single, i mean i have been for every valentines day of my life so far, but i feel like less people were single this year, and lastly i ended up spending valentines day at my grandparents, doing homework, eating yesterdays rice, shriveled up steak, and these cookies that were $3 each and my grandfather started freaking out because he thought they were so over priced, so now i have converted to the valentines day hating team. I think part of that was also the fact that im sick of reading about love from R&J and its just been getting on my nerves lately.
Now for our second item of the day: everything inbetween. actually to be honest not much has happened "in between". ttommorrow the quebec and puerto rico trips are leaving, and i cant hide the fact that im a little dissapointed im not going, but whatever, i get a whole 4 days to just chill, and possibly shop. For sspring sports i will do waterpolo, unless im the onnly person doing it, then i'll do softball. I played once in 5th grade and i wasnt too bad at it, but i really love waterpolo, especcially because it preps me for my swim season in the summer, which is ussually brutal the first week or so.
once again sorry this post isnt grammtically or spellingky correct but im kinda in a rush

Latin Project and a Cold
Hello,
So recently I have been working on this Latin project thingy, and to be honest I have never been more stressed/upset about anything ever before. I made a model of the Parthenon, except it didn't really go as planned. My original idea was to make everything out of clay including the inside, and the statue of Athena (I made the model look like it had when it had just been built). That idea quickly morphed as I was faced with a time limit and many obstacles. First I decided instead of clay for the columns I would use wood, and I would only make the outside. I got the columns all ready and then I tried to glue them down. With a hot glue gun. Bad idea. Apparently hot glue melts foam board, so I would blow on the columns and they would come tumbling down. This happened about twenty times. I was a wreck. Yesterday I finally got help and started using wood glue, which though it did take forever to dry, did the trick, and now my model Parthenon is finished and I am happy. I know I won’t win the city-wide contest, but I don’t care. That thing has given me so much trouble when I get it back I am going to smash it to bits and then burn it. I vowed I would never cry so hard again. Here is a picture of it.
The other thing that has been stressing me this week is this cold I have. It is so annoying I have a runny nose, and watery eyes, and i keep getting a little itch in my nose and then I feel like I have to sneeze for like a minute and then I can’t sneeze. It’s so unsatisfying. Do you know how annoying it is to feel like you have to sneeze but to not be able to? It’s very annoying. So that’s all for today.

Romeo and Juliet
Romeo and Juliet, the classic story of forbidden love; there are too many references made in pop culture to name, and everyone knows the story. Before this year I really didn't think too much about the story, but now that my school is giving us an overload of Romeo this, Juliet that, I am being forced to think about it. To start out we are reading the play. It’s okay, I'm not really pro-Shakespeare, but it’s not horrible. On top of that we are watching the old Romeo and Juliet movie and the 1994 one with LEO DICAPRIO <333. In addition we just saw the opera Romeo and Juliet. It was bad. It was in French. It was four hours long. It was on my half birthday. Teachers still assigned us homework. Let’s just say that I really did not enjoy the experience.
To be honest though, I don’t know why everyone makes such a big deal out of the story, I mean halfway through I get sick of it and just want them to die already, everyone’s happier that way. Their death is actually a good thing. Why couldn’t they have just killed themselves in the first act? It would have saved the world a lot of time. I just don’t understand why people make such a big deal out of it. I know Shakespeare “created” the forbidden love idea, but really do you HAVE to worship him? It’s almost as bad as Justin Beiber (I mean how people are obsessed with him, not how he sounds/looks).
Okay, if you really want my opinion I think the story is a waste of time. I mean they just die in the end anyway. I also think it is way over-referenced and way over-used (as in pop culture references).
